But really it's just the 228 00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:06,480 Speaker 7: peace negotiations that President Trump is for. He is the 229 00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:10,480 Speaker 7: peacemaker and that's my biggest takeaway so far in this administration. 230 00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:13,720 Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm curious about your takeaway about being in the 231 00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:17,160 Speaker 6: press room, and I want to talk about the America 232 00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:17,920 Speaker 6: aspect to this. 233 00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:20,280 Speaker 3: You know, it feels like the. 234 00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:23,320 Speaker 6: Press corps, the liberal press corps, is rooting against America. 235 00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:26,160 Speaker 6: We saw this on immigration and it just seems like 236 00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:29,920 Speaker 6: there's like that spirit of anti Americanism. I'm not saying 237 00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:33,640 Speaker 6: that they're anti anti American because. 238 00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:34,160 Speaker 3: I don't know their heart. 239 00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:37,400 Speaker 6: They'll have to account for all of that, but their 240 00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:41,199 Speaker 6: actions really do come across as vitriolic. 241 00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:46,960 Speaker 7: It is, David, I really wish the three of you 242 00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:49,920 Speaker 7: guys could sit in this briefing room during one of 243 00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:52,880 Speaker 7: these heated exchanges on a hot topic like immigration and 244 00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:57,400 Speaker 7: deportation flights. Remember it was it was a signal chat 245 00:11:57,559 --> 00:12:00,600 Speaker 7: signal gate. They blew that up out of proportion. Then 246 00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:04,000 Speaker 7: it was you know, deportation they went after that. But 247 00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:07,440 Speaker 7: to have them sit there and defend these illegal immigrants, 248 00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:11,760 Speaker 7: he's criminals. It is anti America.

One of the best 358 00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:32,840 Speaker 6: organizations on the front lines of that fight is AMAC. That, 359 00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:35,879 Speaker 6: of course, the Association of Mature American Citizens.

I mean, we have an enormous 370 00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:07,880 Speaker 12: debt that is put on our shoulders. You go back 371 00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:09,600 Speaker 12: to World War Two and the town that I grew 372 00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:10,800 Speaker 12: up in right here in Maine. 373 00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:13,040 Speaker 13: We had many World War. 374 00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:15,879 Speaker 12: Two vets, including teachers of mine who ended up on 375 00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:19,520 Speaker 12: Omaha Beach Day one another one at Ewo Jima and 376 00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:22,520 Speaker 12: that's a picture of Omaha right there. I mean, it's 377 00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:28,719 Speaker 12: the incredible sacrifice that these guys embody and the power 378 00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:32,400 Speaker 12: of their determination. These are kids ages sixteen to maybe 379 00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:35,600 Speaker 12: twenty twenty two. They saved the Western world, and you know, 380 00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:36,760 Speaker 12: I sometimes wonder. 381 00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:38,199 Speaker 13: If we've got it in us still. I hope we do. 382 00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:40,800 Speaker 12: In Memorial days are the kinds of days that make 383 00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:41,400 Speaker 12: us remember. 384 00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:43,840 Speaker 13: For me, I also remember shipmates that I lost. 385 00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:47,760 Speaker 12: I was ten years Navy intelligence and I spent time 386 00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:50,439 Speaker 12: in different capacities in Iraq and Afghanistan and also in 387 00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:53,960 Speaker 12: the Pentagon. So you know, for me, yep, hot dogs 388 00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:56,560 Speaker 12: and all that, but it also and there's Arlington. My 389 00:19:56,600 --> 00:20:00,720 Speaker 12: grandfather is buried at Arlington, my father, a number of 390 00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:03,800 Speaker 12: other relatives. It makes me stop dead in my tracks 391 00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:06,640 Speaker 12: and just remember how grateful I should be and therefore 392 00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:09,720 Speaker 12: what I am in a way, what we all owe forward. 393 00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:12,399 Speaker 5: Yeah, it's so true. 394 00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:14,840 Speaker 4: You know, I look at those boys in their faces, 395 00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:19,680 Speaker 4: and I have boys that age, and you know, that's 396 00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:23,359 Speaker 4: the part that gets very emotional for me. I know 397 00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:26,879 Speaker 4: that your own personal experience is what you draw from 398 00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:33,320 Speaker 4: the people in your family that fought. You fought as well. 399 00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:38,080 Speaker 4: But here we are with a generation who doesn't even 400 00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:43,560 Speaker 4: know war, but amac does a ton to not only 401 00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:49,040 Speaker 4: support veterans, but to remind America what we have and 402 00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:52,720 Speaker 4: that we aren't in a time of war, at least 403 00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:56,280 Speaker 4: not you know, we definitely have troops overseas, there's no 404 00:20:56,359 --> 00:21:01,240 Speaker 4: doubt about that. But our children, likely majority of them 405 00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:06,280 Speaker 4: won't see war like generations before this one saw war. 406 00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:08,840 Speaker 5: How do we remind them? 407 00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:11,119 Speaker 4: I know AMAC does it a lot on this front, 408 00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:14,679 Speaker 4: but how do we remind them what our veterans have 409 00:21:14,800 --> 00:21:15,320 Speaker 4: been through? 410 00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:17,840 Speaker 13: Well, what a great question. 411 00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:22,320 Speaker 12: And I have kids that same age, and so, you know, 412 00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:25,800 Speaker 12: so the most simplistic answer I can give you is 413 00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:31,159 Speaker 12: I have walked with my kids through cemeteries and explained 414 00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:34,920 Speaker 12: to them the debt that we owe, how everything around 415 00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:36,919 Speaker 12: them and literally everything we're looking at around us here 416 00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:41,080 Speaker 12: today really goes back to the sacrifice that was made 417 00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:43,480 Speaker 12: in World War Two, but also Korea and Vietnam and 418 00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:47,320 Speaker 12: Gulf One, in Iraq and Afghanistan. That freedom is always 419 00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:50,040 Speaker 12: under assault, and that, of course, is what AMAC is 420 00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:53,200 Speaker 12: all about. Twenty five percent of our members are veterans. 421 00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:56,359 Speaker 12: Seventy five percent of the membership have a veteran in 422 00:21:56,400 --> 00:22:00,760 Speaker 12: the family. We sometimes forget that literally in this nation, 423 00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:02,560 Speaker 12: only one percent of us. 424 00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:05,560 Speaker 13: Are on active duty at any given time. 425 00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:07,240 Speaker 12: And if you add up all the veterans in the 426 00:22:07,320 --> 00:22:10,160 Speaker 12: United States today, it's only about six percent of the country. 427 00:22:10,560 --> 00:22:11,720 Speaker 13: So an awful lot. 428 00:22:11,760 --> 00:22:15,280 Speaker 12: You know, I'm going to botch the quote from Churchill, 429 00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:18,359 Speaker 12: but you know, an awful lot is owed to a 430 00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:20,840 Speaker 12: very few who stand up every day of the week 431 00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:24,240 Speaker 12: as needed to go out and confront evil, so that 432 00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:26,959 Speaker 12: we can sit back here and feel good about the 433 00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:30,159 Speaker 12: safety we have around us. I would encourage people on 434 00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:32,200 Speaker 12: Memorial Day just to talk to their kids a little 435 00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:34,879 Speaker 12: about history. Go if you have the stomach for it, 436 00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:37,520 Speaker 12: go watch Band of Brothers. That's a great film that 437 00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:39,960 Speaker 12: illustrates in real life easy company. 438 00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:41,960 Speaker 13: And what they did over there. And you know, I 439 00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:45,040 Speaker 13: do have a lot of relatives that fought. I have 440 00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:48,400 Speaker 13: more than one hundred relatives who fought in the Revolutionary War. 441 00:22:48,560 --> 00:22:52,040 Speaker 12: So it's a legacy we owe backwards. 442 00:22:52,080 --> 00:22:53,880 Speaker 13: But the only way to pay it is to pay 443 00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:54,440 Speaker 13: it forward. 444 00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:58,280 Speaker 5: Such a great point, Absolutely, very good point. 445 00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:00,439 Speaker 1: I'd like to switch gears just the little bit, if 446 00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:02,520 Speaker 1: you don't mind, and talk about some of what AMAC 447 00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:04,679 Speaker 1: is doing right now. Tell us about some of the 448 00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:07,239 Speaker 1: latest initiatives that we need to be looking out for. 449 00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:09,880 Speaker 1: And more importantly, how all of us can be engaged, 450 00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:12,000 Speaker 1: because I think that's also part of what today is 451 00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:15,600 Speaker 1: all about. It's, yes, remembering those who gave their all 452 00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:18,199 Speaker 1: so that we could have, but you also pay it 453 00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:19,840 Speaker 1: forward then by being engaged in. 454 00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:21,880 Speaker 2: Trying to make life better for the next generation. 455 00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:24,840 Speaker 13: Yeah, and I would encourage everyone to join AMAC. 456 00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:27,520 Speaker 12: Look, if you're looking for some legacy that takes banded 457 00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:30,159 Speaker 12: Brothers or Ronald Reagan or the current love of freedom forward, 458 00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:32,240 Speaker 12: AMAC is your way to do that because they are 459 00:23:32,280 --> 00:23:34,280 Speaker 12: on the front lines every day. This morning, just before 460 00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:38,120 Speaker 12: I come on here, there are initiatives around the country 461 00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:40,840 Speaker 12: that are being fought by AMAC members. We have more 462 00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:43,440 Speaker 12: than two or two million of them out there. They're 463 00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:45,879 Speaker 12: fought at the state level to turn back things like 464 00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:49,760 Speaker 12: rank choice voting, to turn back immoral bills, to try 465 00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:53,200 Speaker 12: to keep sovereignty, to keep solvency, to keep the Bill 466 00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:55,639 Speaker 12: of Rights clear, to get you know, to keep the 467 00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:59,000 Speaker 12: elect the electoral college, you know, the sanctity of the 468 00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:02,200 Speaker 12: electoral college, and so all of these things that really 469 00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:06,080 Speaker 12: go back to a defense of our constitution. Honestly, I 470 00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:08,199 Speaker 12: am proud every single day of the week to be 471 00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:10,680 Speaker 12: the national spokesman for AMAC, and I think if Thomas 472 00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:15,240 Speaker 12: Jefferson and God forbid, even Alexander Hamilton were around today, 473 00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:17,680 Speaker 12: they would all be saying, Yep, AMAC is the way 474 00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:20,760 Speaker 12: you protect the future.

You guys taking naps down there, 563 00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:36,680 Speaker 6: because Trump is making this pretty. 564 00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:37,400 Speaker 3: Easy for you guys. 565 00:28:37,480 --> 00:28:38,680 Speaker 9: Just kidding, but you know what I. 566 00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:41,240 Speaker 15: Mean, I sure do, David, And great to be on 567 00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:43,280 Speaker 15: with you, Terrence, Gina, and thank you all for having 568 00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:45,720 Speaker 15: me back. And look, you know, I think the biggest 569 00:28:45,760 --> 00:28:49,160 Speaker 15: takeaway from the border is the lack of covers that 570 00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:50,840 Speaker 15: we're seeing in the media, And I mean that's a 571 00:28:50,880 --> 00:28:54,360 Speaker 15: good thing, you know, under the Biden administration. Daily daily 572 00:28:54,400 --> 00:28:57,040 Speaker 15: we see border coverage and it goes to show what 573 00:28:57,160 --> 00:28:59,880 Speaker 15: a strong leader in the White House has done for 574 00:28:59,880 --> 00:29:02,200 Speaker 15: the border when you enforce the rule of law and 575 00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:04,720 Speaker 15: allow the border agents, war patrol agents to get out 576 00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:07,000 Speaker 15: and do their job. And even here in my county 577 00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:09,400 Speaker 15: right now, we're running an operation. We're participating with water 578 00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:11,960 Speaker 15: Patrol where they have other resources brought in because this 579 00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:14,320 Speaker 15: is the busy time of year for us where we 580 00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:17,000 Speaker 15: have that lack of infrastructure, lack of technology, the lack 581 00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:19,600 Speaker 15: of manpower the big ben region of Texas, and that 582 00:29:19,640 --> 00:29:23,480 Speaker 15: has even made a huge decrease in activity here at 583 00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:26,600 Speaker 15: the moment, and it's coupled with the help from government Mexico. 584 00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:28,920 Speaker 15: But we do know they'll pull out in a week, 585 00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:31,960 Speaker 15: that activity will swing back this way and we'll get busy. 586 00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:34,600 Speaker 5: Yeah, you know. 587 00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:38,080 Speaker 4: The president, of course, always taking a lot of heat 588 00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:43,200 Speaker 4: for all of for sending illegals to the Al Salvador. 589 00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:46,200 Speaker 4: Of course, this is a notorious prison that's there where 590 00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:49,160 Speaker 4: he's sending them. People on the left think that those 591 00:29:49,240 --> 00:29:52,600 Speaker 4: who've entered our country legally deserved due process and should 592 00:29:52,600 --> 00:29:57,000 Speaker 4: be allowed to stay and in our country. I guess 593 00:29:57,440 --> 00:30:00,960 Speaker 4: even though they're here illegally. Others though, sitting President Trump, 594 00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:03,400 Speaker 4: they say, no, President, sheriff, what do you I just 595 00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:05,480 Speaker 4: called you president, I just promoted you, Sheriff. 596 00:30:05,520 --> 00:30:08,840 Speaker 1: What do you say congratulations? As a school board president 597 00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:10,080 Speaker 1: president of the school board. 598 00:30:10,080 --> 00:30:10,440 Speaker 9: There you go. 599 00:30:10,520 --> 00:30:12,640 Speaker 2: It's accurate there that it used to be. 600 00:30:12,720 --> 00:30:15,600 Speaker 15: You're right, but you're exactly right looking and even here 601 00:30:15,640 --> 00:30:18,960 Speaker 15: in Texas, through Governor Abbott, we fought people for the 602 00:30:19,040 --> 00:30:22,320 Speaker 15: last four years on on laws that the legslate legislative 603 00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:24,720 Speaker 15: portion of Texas here passed. 604 00:30:25,040 --> 00:30:27,760 Speaker 16: Still going through battles, but when we look at. 605 00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:30,000 Speaker 15: The current administration, they have been very crafty in the 606 00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:32,480 Speaker 15: way that they put forth some of these policies knowing 607 00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:35,280 Speaker 15: they were going to be challenged and still move forward. 608 00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:38,840 Speaker 15: And we're seeing, yes, some of those those policies being challenged, 609 00:30:38,880 --> 00:30:40,880 Speaker 15: but I think in the long run that we're going 610 00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:43,040 Speaker 15: to be good with them because of the amount of 611 00:30:43,040 --> 00:30:45,320 Speaker 15: research they put in. But I must tell you, you know, 612 00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:49,240 Speaker 15: hearing people from both sides really and from all over 613 00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:51,280 Speaker 15: the country speaking about the border, most of them don't 614 00:30:51,320 --> 00:30:54,520 Speaker 15: realize that there's a difference between criminal law and immigration law. 615 00:30:54,520 --> 00:30:57,600 Speaker 15: And of course immigration judges fall into the executive branch. 616 00:30:58,040 --> 00:31:02,120 Speaker 15: Under criminal law, it's the prosecutors have to be able 617 00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:05,440 Speaker 15: to present the case to put the burden on the 618 00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:09,240 Speaker 15: person that's trying to prove their innocent. However, an immigration law, 619 00:31:09,560 --> 00:31:12,080 Speaker 15: you know, it's that person that's been allowed into the 620 00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:14,479 Speaker 15: country or that's seeking entry into the country that has 621 00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:17,240 Speaker 15: to prove their ability to be here. And again, the 622 00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:20,560 Speaker 15: vast majority don't have the right. They've entered illegally, they've 623 00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:23,040 Speaker 15: already broken the law. So there's a huge difference between 624 00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:27,120 Speaker 15: criminal law immigration law, and people just need to understand 625 00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:29,120 Speaker 15: that they are given to process, but they're given it 626 00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:31,920 Speaker 15: under the immigration law where they have to themselves prove 627 00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:32,400 Speaker 15: their case. 628 00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:34,080 Speaker 16: That they have the right to be here, and again, 629 00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:35,200 Speaker 16: the beast majority don't. 630 00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:35,920 Speaker 14: Have that right. 631 00:31:37,760 --> 00:31:39,400 Speaker 2: Sheriff, thanks for making that distinction. 632 00:31:39,440 --> 00:31:42,320 Speaker 1: I think it's important and many people don't necessarily realize it. 633 00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:43,800 Speaker 2: Also, one of the. 634 00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:46,120 Speaker 1: Things that I've noticed, typically when we're talking about border 635 00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:49,480 Speaker 1: security and securing our border, we talk about it from 636 00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:53,280 Speaker 1: the perspective of law enforcement and public safety. I think 637 00:31:53,360 --> 00:31:56,080 Speaker 1: you have a unique perspective, not just the sheriff, but also, 638 00:31:56,160 --> 00:31:58,600 Speaker 1: as you mentioned, having been the president of a school board, 639 00:31:58,640 --> 00:32:02,400 Speaker 1: your community engaged. Give us perspective, particularly in your community 640 00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:05,240 Speaker 1: there in Taroll County, how this has seen from a 641 00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:09,440 Speaker 1: community perspective, how your average everyday citizen just walking the 642 00:32:09,440 --> 00:32:13,280 Speaker 1: streets of Taroll County sees this immigration crisis. 643 00:32:14,480 --> 00:32:17,000 Speaker 15: Well so Again, Tarroll County is the tenth largest county 644 00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:19,160 Speaker 15: in state of Texas, over twenty three hundred square miles 645 00:32:19,320 --> 00:32:23,360 Speaker 15: fifty four miles of border with Mexico. We have one community, 646 00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:26,080 Speaker 15: very small population, one community of Sanderson, which is about 647 00:32:26,120 --> 00:32:26,840 Speaker 15: seven hundred people. 648 00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:29,080 Speaker 16: But those crossing our border aren't coming to Sanderson. 649 00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:31,800 Speaker 15: They're really affecting our landowners and our landowners that have 650 00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:35,120 Speaker 15: been very pleased at the change seeing border patrol back 651 00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:38,520 Speaker 15: on the properties, the coordination we have with border patrol. 652 00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:40,600 Speaker 16: At the local level as well as the state level. 653 00:32:40,880 --> 00:32:42,840 Speaker 15: But I got to expand that out to Texas because 654 00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:45,840 Speaker 15: even my county historically was one of those blue counties, 655 00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:49,600 Speaker 15: if you will. We switched a few election periods back. 656 00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:52,960 Speaker 15: But even those that claim to be the Democrats in 657 00:32:52,960 --> 00:32:55,840 Speaker 15: my county, they really have those Republican beliefs. They have 658 00:32:55,960 --> 00:32:59,280 Speaker 15: those conservative beliefs. They've just been told for years, you know, 659 00:32:59,320 --> 00:33:02,600 Speaker 15: the vote demost and they do. Based on that little 660 00:33:02,640 --> 00:33:05,040 Speaker 15: scenario there. However, I have to expand that out to 661 00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:08,760 Speaker 15: the state of Texas. Look, when President Trump won the 662 00:33:08,760 --> 00:33:12,960 Speaker 15: White House, twelve out of the fourteen counties carried President Trump. 663 00:33:13,040 --> 00:33:14,200 Speaker 16: That had never been seen before. 664 00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:17,280 Speaker 15: We had counties that had never had a Republican win 665 00:33:18,280 --> 00:33:20,600 Speaker 15: the presidency in that county before, and it happened. So 666 00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:22,840 Speaker 15: I can tell you all along the Texas border where 667 00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:26,000 Speaker 15: we've seen, you know, the bulk of the activity the 668 00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:29,640 Speaker 15: last four years. It really made a change. It and 669 00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:31,920 Speaker 15: people getting out to the polls and voting for President Trump. 670 00:33:32,520 --> 00:33:34,960 Speaker 4: Jeff, how are you paying It has been Memorial Day today. 671 00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:38,800 Speaker 16: Well, I'll tell you what I've got two grandfather. 672 00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:40,640 Speaker 15: I wanted to be a marine, but thank god I 673 00:33:40,640 --> 00:33:42,800 Speaker 15: had two grandfathers that were career Air Force and talk 674 00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:45,600 Speaker 15: to Cincinni, and I mean that respectfully.

On this Memorial Day and a 748 00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:42,160 Speaker 17: headline catching eyes Trump's war on woke. Both sides say 749 00:37:42,200 --> 00:37:45,359 Speaker 17: the issue is further dividing the country. The President told 750 00:37:45,400 --> 00:37:48,719 Speaker 17: a joint session of Congress in March that DEI is 751 00:37:48,920 --> 00:37:50,280 Speaker 17: dying across the board. 752 00:37:50,360 --> 00:37:50,920 Speaker 5: Take listen. 753 00:37:52,080 --> 00:37:56,080 Speaker 18: We've ended the tyranny of so called diversity, equity and 754 00:37:56,160 --> 00:38:01,840 Speaker 18: inclusion policies all across the entire federal government, and indeed, 755 00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:09,920 Speaker 18: the private chector at our military, at. 756 00:38:09,680 --> 00:38:13,200 Speaker 3: Our country will be world no longer. 757 00:38:13,360 --> 00:38:17,640 Speaker 17: But a recent ABC News Washington Post IPSUS poll released 758 00:38:17,680 --> 00:38:21,040 Speaker 17: on Sunday indicated that the country is almost evenly split 759 00:38:21,120 --> 00:38:24,120 Speaker 17: on the issue. While fifty one percent of respondents said 760 00:38:24,120 --> 00:38:27,960 Speaker 17: they believe DEI efforts help level the playing field, forty 761 00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:33,160 Speaker 17: seven percent said such policies create unfair discrimination. Despite the 762 00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:37,000 Speaker 17: president's claim that DEI in America is history, supporters say 763 00:38:37,040 --> 00:38:40,680 Speaker 17: Trump's war against what they referred to as wokeism is 764 00:38:40,760 --> 00:38:44,800 Speaker 17: far from over. But the question is woke on life support. 765 00:38:45,120 --> 00:38:48,120 Speaker 17: Let's welcome in doctor Gina, David, and Terrence for discussion 766 00:38:48,239 --> 00:38:48,600 Speaker 17: on this. 767 00:38:48,960 --> 00:38:49,520 Speaker 5: You know, you guys. 768 00:38:49,520 --> 00:38:52,480 Speaker 17: In my opinion, it seems that wokeism has been dying 769 00:38:52,560 --> 00:38:55,040 Speaker 17: for a very long time. Is there still some work 770 00:38:55,080 --> 00:38:58,160 Speaker 17: to do? Absolutely, That's why the Trump administration has been 771 00:38:58,560 --> 00:39:02,680 Speaker 17: implementing this on college campuses, small businesses, in our own 772 00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:06,759 Speaker 17: federal programs and agencies there, Terrence, do we have a 773 00:39:06,760 --> 00:39:08,799 Speaker 17: lot of work left to do on eliminating woke in 774 00:39:08,800 --> 00:39:09,320 Speaker 17: this country? 775 00:39:10,440 --> 00:39:12,560 Speaker 2: There is absolutely still work left to do. 776 00:39:12,719 --> 00:39:14,839 Speaker 1: But one of the things that concerns me doctor Gena 777 00:39:14,880 --> 00:39:18,400 Speaker 1: and David is that many of these agencies, particularly schools 778 00:39:18,440 --> 00:39:22,400 Speaker 1: and other entities, they seem to or their wokeness seems 779 00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:26,200 Speaker 1: to go with the political wins. When it's not politically expedient, 780 00:39:26,360 --> 00:39:28,680 Speaker 1: then they back off of some of these woke ideas. 781 00:39:28,719 --> 00:39:31,560 Speaker 1: And my fear is that when there's another administration that 782 00:39:31,640 --> 00:39:34,560 Speaker 1: pushes some of these woke ideas. If there's another leftist 783 00:39:34,640 --> 00:39:38,080 Speaker 1: or Democrat administration that comes to power, then they'll return. 784 00:39:38,600 --> 00:39:41,600 Speaker 1: And that's my biggest concern, that there's no real authenticity 785 00:39:41,840 --> 00:39:43,840 Speaker 1: when it comes to know, we're pushing back against some 786 00:39:43,920 --> 00:39:46,160 Speaker 1: of these woke ideas because we know they're wrong. It's 787 00:39:46,160 --> 00:39:49,880 Speaker 1: simply a political It's an issue of political expediency, doctor. 788 00:39:49,680 --> 00:39:54,000 Speaker 4: Gina, Yeah, I think you know, there is definitely a concern. 789 00:39:54,040 --> 00:39:55,720 Speaker 5: And look, it's not going to just go away. 790 00:39:56,760 --> 00:40:00,800 Speaker 4: Life support is a strong word because obviously life support 791 00:40:00,880 --> 00:40:03,759 Speaker 4: means that it's going to die soon. It's not going 792 00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:06,279 Speaker 4: to die. They'll come up with a different name. This 793 00:40:06,360 --> 00:40:06,839 Speaker 4: is what they did. 794 00:40:06,840 --> 00:40:08,400 Speaker 5: Remember global warming. 795 00:40:08,600 --> 00:40:10,880 Speaker 4: You guys, and then meet global cooling. 796 00:40:11,239 --> 00:40:13,480 Speaker 5: And then they came up with climate change. 797 00:40:13,239 --> 00:40:16,879 Speaker 4: Right, And there's probably there, probably more words. But I've 798 00:40:16,920 --> 00:40:20,160 Speaker 4: been a part of this narrative my whole entire life. 799 00:40:20,160 --> 00:40:23,520 Speaker 4: My dad was a very leftist activist, as most of 800 00:40:23,520 --> 00:40:27,000 Speaker 4: you know. My mom wasn't, but they were divorced and 801 00:40:27,040 --> 00:40:28,959 Speaker 4: my dad is the one who I watched go through 802 00:40:29,000 --> 00:40:31,440 Speaker 4: all of these iterations of liberalism. And all they do 803 00:40:31,480 --> 00:40:33,440 Speaker 4: is they change the name, and it's the same devil 804 00:40:33,480 --> 00:40:34,239 Speaker 4: by a different name. 805 00:40:34,360 --> 00:40:34,680 Speaker 5: David. 806 00:40:35,680 --> 00:40:37,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, Look, this is cultural Marxism. 807 00:40:37,960 --> 00:40:38,640 Speaker 2: That's what it is. 808 00:40:39,120 --> 00:40:40,920 Speaker 3: It's cultural, it's identity politics. 809 00:40:40,960 --> 00:40:41,160 Speaker 2: Yeah. 810 00:40:41,280 --> 00:40:44,239 Speaker 6: So the answer to the original question is no, it's 811 00:40:44,280 --> 00:40:45,040 Speaker 6: not going to go away. 812 00:40:45,440 --> 00:40:47,560 Speaker 3: It's going to be a fight every single day. 813 00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:50,880 Speaker 6: So this idea that it's on the way out or anything, 814 00:40:50,960 --> 00:40:52,960 Speaker 6: that's a false narrative, absolutely not. 815 00:40:53,440 --> 00:40:56,160 Speaker 3: This is what liberals, this is what progressives are fighting for. 816 00:40:56,280 --> 00:40:57,560 Speaker 9: This is what the far left wants. 817 00:40:57,600 --> 00:40:59,640 Speaker 6: They want cultural Marxism to rule the day.

True, it's fitting to 843 00:42:21,880 --> 00:42:24,600 Speaker 6: look back to one of the earliest examples of selfless 844 00:42:24,600 --> 00:42:26,960 Speaker 6: courage in the Bible. It's the story of Abraham's daring 845 00:42:27,000 --> 00:42:29,000 Speaker 6: rescue of his nephew a lot. 846 00:42:29,640 --> 00:42:32,680 Speaker 3: The ancient raid is all the elements of a high. 847 00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:37,000 Speaker 6: Stakes military operation, complete with bold tactics, rapid strikes, and 848 00:42:37,040 --> 00:42:40,000 Speaker 6: a leader willing to risk it all for his family. 849 00:42:40,680 --> 00:42:43,480 Speaker 3: Well, let's take a closer look. Now, let's bring in 850 00:42:43,560 --> 00:42:47,640 Speaker 3: Jim Moseley here, as we call him, the Bible History guy. 851 00:42:47,800 --> 00:42:48,040 Speaker 2: Jim. 852 00:42:48,120 --> 00:42:49,920 Speaker 6: Great to have you, we call you. Yeah, that's what 853 00:42:49,960 --> 00:42:52,360 Speaker 6: we call you. It's a remarkable story. Take us through it, 854 00:42:52,400 --> 00:42:53,439 Speaker 6: and happy Memorial Day. 855 00:42:54,280 --> 00:42:55,560 Speaker 9: Happy Memorial Day, David. 856 00:42:55,920 --> 00:42:59,520 Speaker 19: Well, Yeah, Once upon a time and Genesis fourteen, we 857 00:42:59,560 --> 00:43:01,440 Speaker 19: have the first recorded. 858 00:43:01,160 --> 00:43:02,120 Speaker 3: Battle in the Byron. 859 00:43:02,840 --> 00:43:05,560 Speaker 19: Abraham leaves his homeland to follow the call of God. 860 00:43:05,680 --> 00:43:07,319 Speaker 19: We know he settles in the land of Canaan, but 861 00:43:07,400 --> 00:43:10,640 Speaker 19: his nephew Lot, he decides to settle in the more 862 00:43:10,760 --> 00:43:15,480 Speaker 19: fertile but morally compromised region near stim and that decision 863 00:43:15,520 --> 00:43:18,759 Speaker 19: puts him in real danger because the trouble begins when 864 00:43:18,960 --> 00:43:23,600 Speaker 19: four powerful kings led by Cheddar Laomer of Elam, they 865 00:43:23,640 --> 00:43:26,200 Speaker 19: sweep down from the north and they wage a brutal 866 00:43:26,239 --> 00:43:29,560 Speaker 19: campaign of conquest across the whole region. Now, these kings 867 00:43:29,560 --> 00:43:33,640 Speaker 19: from the east, they're exacting revenge on five city states, 868 00:43:33,680 --> 00:43:37,879 Speaker 19: including Sodom and Gomora, because they dared not to pay tribute. Well, 869 00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:41,360 Speaker 19: in this chaos of the raid, Lot and his household 870 00:43:41,360 --> 00:43:44,000 Speaker 19: are captured. They're taking his spoils of war, and they're 871 00:43:44,080 --> 00:43:47,640 Speaker 19: marched north as slaves. But when Abraham hears of it, 872 00:43:47,680 --> 00:43:51,800 Speaker 19: he doesn't hesitate. Despite overwhelming odds, he acts with a 873 00:43:51,920 --> 00:43:55,160 Speaker 19: courage of a seasoned commander. He musters three hundred and 874 00:43:55,200 --> 00:43:59,239 Speaker 19: eighteen men, not professional soldiers, just loyal servants, and off 875 00:43:59,320 --> 00:44:01,960 Speaker 19: they go in suit. Now a force of three hundred 876 00:44:01,960 --> 00:44:05,680 Speaker 19: and eighteen seems small against the combined armies of four kings, 877 00:44:05,920 --> 00:44:09,919 Speaker 19: but Abraham has two aces, the element of surprise and 878 00:44:10,280 --> 00:44:14,200 Speaker 19: the favor of God. He divides his forces and launches 879 00:44:14,239 --> 00:44:17,920 Speaker 19: a daring nighttime raid, attacking from multiple angles. Now this 880 00:44:18,080 --> 00:44:21,360 Speaker 19: tactic innovative for the time, because then most armies just 881 00:44:21,560 --> 00:44:25,000 Speaker 19: mobbed each other's head on. Well, Abraham catches the enemy 882 00:44:25,040 --> 00:44:28,200 Speaker 19: off guard. He drives them into retreat and rescues lot, 883 00:44:28,320 --> 00:44:32,919 Speaker 19: Lot's families and all their possessions. And when he returns victorious, 884 00:44:33,040 --> 00:44:38,320 Speaker 19: a mysterious figure meets Abraham. Melchizedec, king of Salem, and 885 00:44:38,400 --> 00:44:42,200 Speaker 19: priests are the most high. God Melchizidic blesses Abraham, who 886 00:44:42,239 --> 00:44:46,480 Speaker 19: offers this priest king, who's actually the pre incarnate Christ, 887 00:44:46,960 --> 00:44:49,919 Speaker 19: bread and wine. This is the forerunner of the law 888 00:44:49,920 --> 00:44:52,439 Speaker 19: of the Tide that God's going to give Moses four 889 00:44:52,520 --> 00:44:53,279 Speaker 19: centuries later. 890 00:44:54,239 --> 00:44:55,080 Speaker 9: Now, when the. 891 00:44:55,000 --> 00:44:57,120 Speaker 3: Grateful king of Sodom offers. 892 00:44:56,800 --> 00:45:00,279 Speaker 19: Abraham a share of the plunder, Abraham says, no, I 893 00:45:00,320 --> 00:45:02,320 Speaker 19: won't take even as much as a sandal strap. 894 00:45:02,800 --> 00:45:04,319 Speaker 3: He doesn't want anyone to be. 895 00:45:04,280 --> 00:45:08,120 Speaker 19: Able to say I made Abraham rich because God. Abraham's 896 00:45:08,160 --> 00:45:11,600 Speaker 19: war was guided by God, not by prophet. So as 897 00:45:11,640 --> 00:45:14,920 Speaker 19: we honor our warriors. This Memorial Day, let's remember that, 898 00:45:15,000 --> 00:45:18,799 Speaker 19: like Abraham, they're selfless, they're bold, they're willing to risk 899 00:45:18,880 --> 00:45:22,400 Speaker 19: their lives, not for wealth or fame, but for family 900 00:45:22,600 --> 00:45:25,840 Speaker 19: and faith and for country. They're our sentinels on the 901 00:45:25,920 --> 00:45:29,160 Speaker 19: ramparts of liberty. It is well said that in peacetime 902 00:45:29,360 --> 00:45:33,839 Speaker 19: sons bury their fathers, but in war, fathers bury their sons. 903 00:45:34,239 --> 00:45:37,680 Speaker 19: Let's remember our fallen heroes because for all of our 904 00:45:37,800 --> 00:45:40,920 Speaker 19: tomorrows they gave there today. 905 00:45:42,000 --> 00:45:44,200 Speaker 6: Yeah, mostly couldn't have said it better myself, and I 906 00:45:44,200 --> 00:45:45,959 Speaker 6: would never have said it, because you are the Bible 907 00:45:46,080 --> 00:45:47,000 Speaker 6: history guid and only you. 908 00:45:46,920 --> 00:45:49,560 Speaker 3: Can say it.

I feel like 934 00:47:16,360 --> 00:47:21,080 Speaker 4: that on so many important Christmas, Easter, Thanksgiving, all of 935 00:47:21,120 --> 00:47:25,080 Speaker 4: those times, the suffering that went so that we can 936 00:47:25,160 --> 00:47:26,960 Speaker 4: go have a picnic today. 937 00:47:27,040 --> 00:47:29,600 Speaker 5: And I'm not going to guilt anybody, you know, look. 938 00:47:30,560 --> 00:47:33,400 Speaker 4: But it is it is important to remember and acknowledge 939 00:47:33,520 --> 00:47:35,560 Speaker 4: Terrence absolutely. 940 00:47:35,960 --> 00:47:40,040 Speaker 1: And you know, I guess I just realized that I'm maturing. 941 00:47:40,880 --> 00:47:44,520 Speaker 1: Hearing taps today is something different for me than it 942 00:47:44,719 --> 00:47:46,520 Speaker 1: was I grew up and I've told you guys. 943 00:47:46,400 --> 00:47:46,960 Speaker 2: This many times. 944 00:47:47,000 --> 00:47:50,319 Speaker 1: I grew up on a military base in Germany and 945 00:47:50,480 --> 00:47:52,680 Speaker 1: at the end of the day four thirty five o'clock. 946 00:47:53,080 --> 00:47:57,000 Speaker 1: Every day you'd hear taps played over the loudspeaker and 947 00:47:57,040 --> 00:48:00,640 Speaker 1: everyone would stop, and you know, you'd lose the flag 948 00:48:00,880 --> 00:48:03,000 Speaker 1: or you know, put your hand over your heart and listen, 949 00:48:03,200 --> 00:48:05,160 Speaker 1: and taps would play and then there would be kind 950 00:48:05,160 --> 00:48:06,480 Speaker 1: of a da da da da, and it was a 951 00:48:06,520 --> 00:48:09,640 Speaker 1: bit more. But you know, then it was just okay, 952 00:48:09,760 --> 00:48:13,000 Speaker 1: it was an inconvenience or it felt like an inconvenience. 953 00:48:12,480 --> 00:48:12,959 Speaker 2: At that moment. 954 00:48:13,000 --> 00:48:16,239 Speaker 1: Again, I was a kid, But now I realized that 955 00:48:16,280 --> 00:48:19,440 Speaker 1: it was reverence. It was remembering those who have served 956 00:48:20,000 --> 00:48:23,560 Speaker 1: in the past, who have given the ultimate sacrifice, and 957 00:48:24,200 --> 00:48:26,640 Speaker 1: I just really at this moment just realized kind of 958 00:48:27,280 --> 00:48:31,319 Speaker 1: how impactful that song is and how reverent it is 959 00:48:31,360 --> 00:48:33,600 Speaker 1: to those who have given the ultimate sacrifice. Sorry, I 960 00:48:33,600 --> 00:48:36,799 Speaker 1: know I probably went on a soliloquy there, but I 961 00:48:36,960 --> 00:48:40,040 Speaker 1: just realized that literally as we were listening to it. 962 00:48:41,200 --> 00:48:41,400 Speaker 9: You know. 963 00:48:41,560 --> 00:48:43,960 Speaker 6: The other thing that I'm thinking about this morning is 964 00:48:44,000 --> 00:48:46,040 Speaker 6: that these freedoms we talk about, so what do we 965 00:48:46,080 --> 00:48:47,960 Speaker 6: mean by that. I mean, we can list the freedoms, 966 00:48:47,960 --> 00:48:49,680 Speaker 6: So let's just start with the first Amendment. Let's talk 967 00:48:49,680 --> 00:48:51,719 Speaker 6: about free speech for a second. I mean the fact 968 00:48:51,719 --> 00:48:54,000 Speaker 6: that we can just have a free speech in this country, 969 00:48:54,040 --> 00:48:56,160 Speaker 6: or at least what we hope will be free speech. 970 00:48:56,239 --> 00:48:57,200 Speaker 3: Depends on the regime. 971 00:48:57,280 --> 00:49:00,120 Speaker 6: That's you know, it depends on who's in charge, you know, 972 00:49:00,160 --> 00:49:01,280 Speaker 6: unter Pennsylvania Avenue. 973 00:49:01,640 --> 00:49:05,360 Speaker 3: But Gina, that's crucial here, especially as we kind of 974 00:49:05,360 --> 00:49:07,160 Speaker 3: go off to these barbecues and talk with. 975 00:49:07,120 --> 00:49:09,359 Speaker 6: Our loved ones, and some of them we agree with, 976 00:49:09,680 --> 00:49:11,200 Speaker 6: hopefully a lot of them we agree with, some of 977 00:49:11,239 --> 00:49:13,960 Speaker 6: them we don't. Maybe some friends that we don't on politics. 978 00:49:14,440 --> 00:49:16,759 Speaker 6: But you know, that's important to at least have the 979 00:49:16,800 --> 00:49:19,799 Speaker 6: free speech and be able to do it. And for me, 980 00:49:20,120 --> 00:49:23,960 Speaker 6: I'd rather just do it. You know, if someone wants 981 00:49:23,960 --> 00:49:27,040 Speaker 6: to have an honest, sincere discussion, I'm up for it. 982 00:49:27,080 --> 00:49:29,839 Speaker 6: If it's just going to be you know, la la 983 00:49:29,920 --> 00:49:32,960 Speaker 6: la and fingers in the ears, I have no desire 984 00:49:33,000 --> 00:49:33,960 Speaker 6: to have that conversation. 985 00:49:34,040 --> 00:49:36,160 Speaker 3: That's really not free speech, that's just intolerance. 986 00:49:37,280 --> 00:49:39,319 Speaker 4: Yeah, well there's a lot of that going around, that 987 00:49:39,400 --> 00:49:40,840 Speaker 4: intolerance thing, David. 988 00:49:40,880 --> 00:49:41,560 Speaker 5: But I think it is. 989 00:49:41,520 --> 00:49:46,720 Speaker 4: More important that we you know, I bristle every single 990 00:49:46,760 --> 00:49:50,480 Speaker 4: time I hear you know, oh Christmas, you know, Easter, Thanksgiving, 991 00:49:51,239 --> 00:49:55,279 Speaker 4: any family holidays, don't discuss politics or religion. No, it's 992 00:49:55,480 --> 00:49:58,400 Speaker 4: never been more important that you do, in fact, be 993 00:49:58,560 --> 00:50:01,719 Speaker 4: honest and educate people, because there's so much that people 994 00:50:01,760 --> 00:50:06,040 Speaker 4: don't understand if they only digest the legacy media, and 995 00:50:06,400 --> 00:50:10,000 Speaker 4: so doing things like inviting them to this program, to 996 00:50:10,080 --> 00:50:12,560 Speaker 4: this network that has been honest from the very beginning. 997 00:50:12,600 --> 00:50:14,319 Speaker 4: You know, all the time, I'm hearing things like, you know, 998 00:50:14,400 --> 00:50:17,080 Speaker 4: we didn't hear about Joe Biden's illness. We didn't hear 999 00:50:17,120 --> 00:50:19,160 Speaker 4: about this, We didn't hear about that. You didn't hear 1000 00:50:19,160 --> 00:50:22,000 Speaker 4: about that because you weren't watching this network. And so 1001 00:50:22,280 --> 00:50:26,279 Speaker 4: I think having those conversations with people when you're with them, 1002 00:50:27,120 --> 00:50:31,439 Speaker 4: having faith conversations, real conversations about the role that faith 1003 00:50:31,440 --> 00:50:35,600 Speaker 4: should play in our voting process, what pastors should be 1004 00:50:35,600 --> 00:50:38,640 Speaker 4: sitting from the pulpit, return of the black Robe. 1005 00:50:38,520 --> 00:50:40,640 Speaker 5: Regiment, as you point to all the time. 1006 00:50:40,560 --> 00:50:43,759 Speaker 4: David Brody, those things are more important than they've ever been, 1007 00:50:43,960 --> 00:50:48,120 Speaker 4: or we will not maintain our republic. I think at 1008 00:50:48,160 --> 00:50:50,279 Speaker 4: this point in our history, tis there's just too much 1009 00:50:50,280 --> 00:50:50,760 Speaker 4: at stake. 1010 00:50:51,920 --> 00:50:54,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, civil discourse should rule. 1011 00:50:54,000 --> 00:50:57,279 Speaker 1: The day, and I am all for the marketplace of 1012 00:50:57,360 --> 00:50:59,720 Speaker 1: ideas and broadening the marketplace of ideas. 1013 00:51:00,440 --> 00:51:01,600 Speaker 2: Here's my strategy. 1014 00:51:02,160 --> 00:51:05,759 Speaker 1: I start with, Okay, should should there be cranberries or 1015 00:51:05,840 --> 00:51:08,239 Speaker 1: raisins in the potato salad? If we can't have a 1016 00:51:08,239 --> 00:51:10,640 Speaker 1: civil discourse about that, then I'm not gonna talk about 1017 00:51:10,680 --> 00:51:12,800 Speaker 1: anything else. If we can't even talk about that civilly, 1018 00:51:12,960 --> 00:51:14,439 Speaker 1: then I'm not going to get into anything deeper. 1019 00:51:14,440 --> 00:51:15,160 Speaker 2: I'll just let you be. 1020 00:51:15,239 --> 00:51:17,439 Speaker 1: I'll say, Okay, well, enjoy your potato salad, and I'll 1021 00:51:17,440 --> 00:51:19,360 Speaker 1: move on to someone I can have a civil discourse with. 1022 00:51:19,640 --> 00:51:21,319 Speaker 1: That's just my philosophy, and that's how I. 1023 00:51:21,280 --> 00:51:22,080 Speaker 2: Go about it. 1024 00:51:22,520 --> 00:51:24,840 Speaker 4: Fanberries and raisins and potato salad? 1025 00:51:27,560 --> 00:51:29,279 Speaker 1: Is it a a or an a for you? Should 1026 00:51:29,320 --> 00:51:31,880 Speaker 1: should there be? Should there be cranberries or raisins in 1027 00:51:31,880 --> 00:51:32,520 Speaker 1: potato salad? 1028 00:51:32,560 --> 00:51:33,520 Speaker 2: Doctor Ginny? Yes or no? 1029 00:51:34,239 --> 00:51:39,800 Speaker 4: I don't think And I listen, you haven't lived in Germany, 1030 00:51:40,360 --> 00:51:44,200 Speaker 4: and being fluent in German like my husband, I'm surprised 1031 00:51:44,200 --> 00:51:46,840 Speaker 4: that potato salad isn't more sacred to you, Terrence, I 1032 00:51:46,840 --> 00:51:50,360 Speaker 4: wouldn't put neither in there. And yeah, I really I 1033 00:51:50,440 --> 00:51:52,480 Speaker 4: like the sky with potato. 1034 00:51:52,719 --> 00:51:53,719 Speaker 2: I am with you on that. 1035 00:51:54,080 --> 00:51:57,240 Speaker 1: And if someone says there should be cranberries or something 1036 00:51:57,239 --> 00:51:59,960 Speaker 1: else in the potato salad. I realize that their values 1037 00:52:00,080 --> 00:52:02,680 Speaker 1: are probably off, but I'm willing to have a civil 1038 00:52:02,719 --> 00:52:05,040 Speaker 1: conversation about it if they get upset. I know that's 1039 00:52:05,080 --> 00:52:07,360 Speaker 1: not the person I need to be talking to anyway. 1040 00:52:07,400 --> 00:52:09,120 Speaker 3: Folks, today is Memorial Day. 1041 00:52:09,160 --> 00:52:11,959 Speaker 1: It is a federal holiday, and it's a somber one 1042 00:52:12,000 --> 00:52:15,399 Speaker 1: for honoring and warning military personnel who have died while 1043 00:52:15,480 --> 00:52:19,000 Speaker 1: serving in service to the United States. Today, as this 1044 00:52:19,120 --> 00:52:22,359 Speaker 1: extended weekend continues, take a moment to remember those who 1045 00:52:22,440 --> 00:52:26,359 Speaker 1: gave all to defend our freedoms. For those of you 1046 00:52:26,400 --> 00:52:28,520 Speaker 1: who have decided to hit the roads to kick off 1047 00:52:28,560 --> 00:52:31,320 Speaker 1: this weekend, at some point in time today, it's probably 1048 00:52:31,360 --> 00:52:32,960 Speaker 1: going to be time to get back on the road 1049 00:52:32,960 --> 00:52:36,120 Speaker 1: and head home. And negotiating Memorial Day traffic and the 1050 00:52:36,239 --> 00:52:39,040 Speaker 1: unofficials kickoff of summer all unfortunate. 1051 00:52:39,080 --> 00:52:40,160 Speaker 2: It's never really easy. 1052 00:52:40,400 --> 00:52:43,440 Speaker 1: According to Triple A, our record breaking forty five million 1053 00:52:43,440 --> 00:52:47,120 Speaker 1: Americans are expected to drive, fly, and otherwise travel more 1054 00:52:47,160 --> 00:52:49,960 Speaker 1: than fifty miles from home. If you're about to get 1055 00:52:50,000 --> 00:52:54,080 Speaker 1: in the car, do it right after American sunrise. Travelers 1056 00:52:54,080 --> 00:52:57,120 Speaker 1: are advised to depart early in order to avoid peak 1057 00:52:57,160 --> 00:53:02,760 Speaker 1: congestion times, especially in major metropolitan area, and remember drive safely, 1058 00:53:02,920 --> 00:53:03,760 Speaker 1: Just take your time. 1059 00:53:04,880 --> 00:53:06,480 Speaker 2: And how are you feeling today? 1060 00:53:06,719 --> 00:53:09,680 Speaker 1: Did you overeat on too much barbecue and beer over 1061 00:53:09,719 --> 00:53:12,160 Speaker 1: the weekend? Well, if so, you're not alone, trust me, 1062 00:53:12,239 --> 00:53:14,600 Speaker 1: I was right there with you. But what did most 1063 00:53:14,640 --> 00:53:18,000 Speaker 1: of you indulge in? It's estimated that over eight hundred 1064 00:53:18,040 --> 00:53:21,200 Speaker 1: hot dogs are eating on Memorial Day. That's per second, 1065 00:53:21,239 --> 00:53:24,360 Speaker 1: eight hundred hot dogs per second, and that means nearly 1066 00:53:24,440 --> 00:53:26,359 Speaker 1: seventy two million hot dogs are. 1067 00:53:26,280 --> 00:53:27,840 Speaker 2: Eating on this day alone. 1068 00:53:28,120 --> 00:53:30,360 Speaker 1: It's a lot of hot dogs, whoo, a lot of 1069 00:53:30,360 --> 00:53:33,960 Speaker 1: heartburn as well. Hamburgers, grilled chicken, and steaks were probably 1070 00:53:34,000 --> 00:53:35,920 Speaker 1: on your plate at some point in time this weekend 1071 00:53:35,960 --> 00:53:39,200 Speaker 1: as well. And as far as side dishes, potato salad, 1072 00:53:39,280 --> 00:53:43,000 Speaker 1: hopefully without raisins, will be on your plate. Pasta salads 1073 00:53:43,000 --> 00:53:47,120 Speaker 1: and coleslaw were also top contenders, fighting for place in space, 1074 00:53:47,280 --> 00:53:48,960 Speaker 1: on your plate and in your stomach. 1075 00:53:49,200 --> 00:53:50,640 Speaker 2: If you had any of those things, I. 1076 00:53:50,560 --> 00:53:53,279 Speaker 1: Hope you really enjoyed them. All right, let's get you 1077 00:53:53,360 --> 00:53:56,680 Speaker 1: back over to David. I'm David. Doctor Gina's expression when 1078 00:53:56,719 --> 00:54:00,960 Speaker 1: I mentioned the idea even of raisins in the potato salad, 1079 00:54:01,160 --> 00:54:02,000 Speaker 1: I think is classic. 1080 00:54:02,000 --> 00:54:03,960 Speaker 2: We're gonna have to save that for Christmas. 1081 00:54:03,520 --> 00:54:06,920 Speaker 3: Reel, no doubt about that. We will save it for 1082 00:54:07,000 --> 00:54:10,080 Speaker 3: the for the oldies. But goodies if you will with 1083 00:54:10,280 --> 00:54:11,640 Speaker 3: the oldies. 1084 00:54:11,719 --> 00:54:14,280 Speaker 6: I guess okay, Oh, I was aubouted to say, speaking 1085 00:54:14,280 --> 00:54:15,720 Speaker 6: of oldies, let's bring in John Solomon. 1086 00:54:15,800 --> 00:54:16,800 Speaker 2: That's not a good idea. 1087 00:54:16,840 --> 00:54:20,359 Speaker 6: But I guess sorry, John Solomon, are you there? Earth 1088 00:54:20,360 --> 00:54:22,560 Speaker 6: to John Solomon the CEO. 1089 00:54:22,600 --> 00:54:24,719 Speaker 21: Wait, I just went to the refrigerator, got a little 1090 00:54:24,719 --> 00:54:26,680 Speaker 21: snatch of potato salad. 1091 00:54:26,680 --> 00:54:29,040 Speaker 9: I was so hungry listening to that segment. But and 1092 00:54:29,120 --> 00:54:31,880 Speaker 9: no raisins in mine. I'll tell you man, that. 1093 00:54:32,280 --> 00:54:33,040 Speaker 2: Was my first question. 1094 00:54:33,160 --> 00:54:33,600 Speaker 3: Wildlife. 1095 00:54:35,560 --> 00:54:38,400 Speaker 6: Yeah, for forget about the Trump administration for a second, 1096 00:54:38,400 --> 00:54:39,719 Speaker 6: and the fact that it's been one hundred and twenty 1097 00:54:39,719 --> 00:54:41,799 Speaker 6: six days after Trump moved back into the White House. 1098 00:54:41,800 --> 00:54:43,520 Speaker 3: We want to know, what if you put cranberries in 1099 00:54:43,560 --> 00:54:44,360 Speaker 3: your potato salad? 1100 00:54:44,520 --> 00:54:46,480 Speaker 2: That's the bottom line this. 1101 00:54:48,000 --> 00:54:49,640 Speaker 9: Yeah, well, we're going to make sure no one ever 1102 00:54:49,680 --> 00:54:50,200 Speaker 9: does it now. 1103 00:54:50,760 --> 00:54:53,799 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a thing, a good thing in my book, 1104 00:54:53,840 --> 00:54:54,600 Speaker 1: but it is a thing. 1105 00:54:54,680 --> 00:54:57,360 Speaker 2: Go ahead, David, I guess we got to talk about content. 1106 00:54:57,640 --> 00:55:01,000 Speaker 6: Uh, it's really been a whirlwind, John, since there's been 1107 00:55:01,000 --> 00:55:03,160 Speaker 6: so much winning, what do you think are some of 1108 00:55:03,160 --> 00:55:05,680 Speaker 6: the President's biggest accomplishments. I mean, I think the border's 1109 00:55:05,680 --> 00:55:07,000 Speaker 6: got to be up there, but there's a lot. 1110 00:55:07,680 --> 00:55:08,960 Speaker 9: What's your take there is? 1111 00:55:09,120 --> 00:55:12,040 Speaker 21: Yeah, Well, first off, listening prices are down, inflation is 1112 00:55:12,120 --> 00:55:14,799 Speaker 21: under control so quickly, the border is under control. We're 1113 00:55:14,840 --> 00:55:18,320 Speaker 21: beginning to deport the worst to the worst criminal illegal aliens, 1114 00:55:18,320 --> 00:55:21,239 Speaker 21: the people who are committing crimes and harming Americans. All 1115 00:55:21,280 --> 00:55:23,360 Speaker 21: of that is going on at record speed, probably faster 1116 00:55:23,400 --> 00:55:26,440 Speaker 21: than anyone other than President Trump, imagine. I think he 1117 00:55:26,480 --> 00:55:30,440 Speaker 21: did something last week that is so important for this 1118 00:55:30,520 --> 00:55:34,560 Speaker 21: extraordinary Solemn day. Pete Hexseth announced that they are going 1119 00:55:34,600 --> 00:55:39,040 Speaker 21: to reopen the Afghanistan investigation, the Bungled withdrawal and what 1120 00:55:39,200 --> 00:55:41,480 Speaker 21: happened at Abbey Gate. I think there's no greater way 1121 00:55:41,520 --> 00:55:43,480 Speaker 21: to honor the thirteen new passed at the Gate that 1122 00:55:43,600 --> 00:55:46,080 Speaker 21: day and to finally get the American people the truth 1123 00:55:46,080 --> 00:55:49,520 Speaker 21: because Joe Biden and his administration didn't give us that truth. 1124 00:55:49,920 --> 00:55:53,719 Speaker 21: We're really looking forward to what this new investigation will do. 1125 00:55:54,160 --> 00:55:56,680 Speaker 21: We need to understand how these failues occurred so that 1126 00:55:56,719 --> 00:56:00,400 Speaker 21: we don't impose them on future generations of Americans. Warriors 1127 00:56:00,440 --> 00:56:03,319 Speaker 21: and I think heg Seth and Trump doing this late 1128 00:56:03,400 --> 00:56:05,279 Speaker 21: last week. He didn't get the attention that some other 1129 00:56:05,320 --> 00:56:08,399 Speaker 21: things did. But it's so important on this day. Those 1130 00:56:08,440 --> 00:56:11,680 Speaker 21: thirteen loved ones that were lost at the Abby Gate 1131 00:56:11,920 --> 00:56:14,040 Speaker 21: and all those who fell before. 1132 00:56:13,719 --> 00:56:15,719 Speaker 9: Them, this is a way to honor them. 1133 00:56:15,800 --> 00:56:19,360 Speaker 21: Get the American people the truth, make our military better, stronger, smarter, 1134 00:56:19,680 --> 00:56:23,560 Speaker 21: and our civilian leadership better and smarter than the group 1135 00:56:23,600 --> 00:56:27,160 Speaker 21: that withdraw from afghan group that withdrew from Afghanistan was 1136 00:56:27,239 --> 00:56:28,000 Speaker 21: such dishonor. 1137 00:56:29,000 --> 00:56:31,040 Speaker 4: John, I'm so glad you brought that up. I'm glad 1138 00:56:31,080 --> 00:56:35,520 Speaker 4: you called our heroes warriors. I'm glad I love that 1139 00:56:35,560 --> 00:56:40,320 Speaker 4: photograph of President Trump's standing with that soldier who probably 1140 00:56:40,360 --> 00:56:43,520 Speaker 4: at one point would have towered over him. Just what 1141 00:56:43,600 --> 00:56:50,640 Speaker 4: a beautiful, beautiful site, John, We really we just want 1142 00:56:50,680 --> 00:56:55,920 Speaker 4: to see prosecutions take place if indeed wrongdoing is proven 1143 00:56:56,000 --> 00:56:59,080 Speaker 4: at this point, do you think that will happen? 1144 00:57:01,680 --> 00:57:04,600 Speaker 21: Probably not as much as people will want. I think 1145 00:57:04,640 --> 00:57:07,640 Speaker 21: that the Justice Department has a reticence to bring some 1146 00:57:07,719 --> 00:57:09,719 Speaker 21: of these charges in blue cities and then have the 1147 00:57:09,760 --> 00:57:12,520 Speaker 21: people to quit it because it will then be used 1148 00:57:12,560 --> 00:57:14,840 Speaker 21: to suggest that it affirms the bad behavior that is 1149 00:57:14,880 --> 00:57:17,200 Speaker 21: there'll be some selective ones where they believe they can 1150 00:57:17,640 --> 00:57:20,880 Speaker 21: get a jury that will actually convict. Clearly, there's an 1151 00:57:20,920 --> 00:57:24,600 Speaker 21: investigation of Governor Cromo, former Governor Cuomo of New York, 1152 00:57:24,640 --> 00:57:26,800 Speaker 21: for lying to Congress. I think you may see other 1153 00:57:26,840 --> 00:57:30,760 Speaker 21: ones at We have one lawmaker charge with misconduct for 1154 00:57:30,840 --> 00:57:35,320 Speaker 21: striking officers during that invasion of the Ice detention facility 1155 00:57:35,400 --> 00:57:38,880 Speaker 21: in New Jersey. So there's some accountability coming down the line. 1156 00:57:39,600 --> 00:57:41,600 Speaker 21: When I talk to people and again say I agree 1157 00:57:41,600 --> 00:57:43,280 Speaker 21: with this, I'm just telling you what the reality is 1158 00:57:43,280 --> 00:57:45,959 Speaker 21: what I hear as a reporter. The Justice Department wants 1159 00:57:46,000 --> 00:57:48,920 Speaker 21: to bring charges against people that they believe they can 1160 00:57:48,960 --> 00:57:52,040 Speaker 21: sustain a conviction, so that it is a deterrent. If 1161 00:57:52,040 --> 00:57:54,400 Speaker 21: someone did something bad like what happened with the Russia 1162 00:57:54,440 --> 00:57:57,240 Speaker 21: collusion case, and then John Durham can't get them convicted 1163 00:57:57,280 --> 00:57:59,240 Speaker 21: and they get off, what do they do. They crow 1164 00:57:59,280 --> 00:58:01,600 Speaker 21: and say that what we was actually appropriate. So I 1165 00:58:01,640 --> 00:58:04,080 Speaker 21: think the Justice Department is trying to strike a line. 1166 00:58:04,080 --> 00:58:07,680 Speaker 21: There'll be some prosecutions. There'll be other penalties as well, 1167 00:58:07,880 --> 00:58:11,720 Speaker 21: penalties of loss of security clearances and loss of government business, 1168 00:58:11,760 --> 00:58:15,680 Speaker 21: and more accountability in the form of shame being able 1169 00:58:15,680 --> 00:58:18,160 Speaker 21: to put out to the American public the failure like 1170 00:58:18,200 --> 00:58:21,000 Speaker 21: what happened in Afghanistan. We just didn't get the truth 1171 00:58:21,000 --> 00:58:23,200 Speaker 21: on Afghanistan. We're going to get it this time. 1172 00:58:24,880 --> 00:58:25,160 Speaker 3: John. 1173 00:58:25,200 --> 00:58:27,720 Speaker 1: On this day when we're honoring those who have given 1174 00:58:27,720 --> 00:58:32,040 Speaker 1: the ultimate sacrifice and service of this country. There's criticism 1175 00:58:32,120 --> 00:58:35,720 Speaker 1: of President Trump for an upcoming military parade honoring the 1176 00:58:35,720 --> 00:58:39,080 Speaker 1: two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of the American Armed Services, 1177 00:58:39,360 --> 00:58:42,240 Speaker 1: which just happens to coincide with his birthday. What do 1178 00:58:42,280 --> 00:58:45,160 Speaker 1: you make of the criticism. I'd love to get your 1179 00:58:45,200 --> 00:58:46,480 Speaker 1: perspective on how all. 1180 00:58:46,360 --> 00:58:47,280 Speaker 2: Of this is playing out. 1181 00:58:48,520 --> 00:58:51,200 Speaker 21: I think most of Americans think, Hey, honoring our loved 1182 00:58:51,200 --> 00:58:53,560 Speaker 21: ones who serve in the military, of those who passed 1183 00:58:53,600 --> 00:58:55,600 Speaker 21: in the service of our country is a good thing, 1184 00:58:55,720 --> 00:58:59,080 Speaker 21: not a bad thing. Only Washington can fine negativity in that. 1185 00:58:59,280 --> 00:59:01,360 Speaker 21: I'll just tell you to stories that are personal to me. 1186 00:59:01,440 --> 00:59:03,320 Speaker 21: One is very person When I was a young boy, 1187 00:59:03,440 --> 00:59:06,000 Speaker 21: every Memorial Day I would go to Fairfield, Connecticut. I 1188 00:59:06,000 --> 00:59:08,360 Speaker 21: would watch the Memorial Day parade with my two uncles. 1189 00:59:08,760 --> 00:59:11,720 Speaker 21: One was an Army medic at Omaha Beach on D Day. 1190 00:59:11,760 --> 00:59:15,760 Speaker 21: He saw some of the most horrific violence and killing 1191 00:59:15,800 --> 00:59:19,720 Speaker 21: and injuries of our men and women in services, and 1192 00:59:19,840 --> 00:59:22,520 Speaker 21: he stood so proudly. And then the other was on 1193 00:59:22,560 --> 00:59:25,600 Speaker 21: the European front, and he led an extraordinary expedition through 1194 00:59:25,640 --> 00:59:28,720 Speaker 21: a minefield under fire, got his soldiers to safety on 1195 00:59:28,800 --> 00:59:30,880 Speaker 21: the front lines in France. And both of them were 1196 00:59:31,160 --> 00:59:35,320 Speaker 21: major medal winners, and going to that parade was something 1197 00:59:35,360 --> 00:59:37,000 Speaker 21: they looked for to three hundred and. 1198 00:59:36,920 --> 00:59:39,320 Speaker 9: Sixty four days a year. And I would remember my 1199 00:59:39,400 --> 00:59:40,040 Speaker 9: uncle Henry. 1200 00:59:40,080 --> 00:59:41,760 Speaker 21: He would stand there, he'd be in the partially in 1201 00:59:41,800 --> 00:59:44,640 Speaker 21: his uniform, and he'd have tears in his eyes. To 1202 00:59:44,800 --> 00:59:48,320 Speaker 21: give that sort of satisfaction on this day or on 1203 00:59:48,720 --> 00:59:50,560 Speaker 21: the future day of that parade, I think is a 1204 00:59:50,560 --> 00:59:52,480 Speaker 21: great thing. And then second, I'll just tell this other story. 1205 00:59:52,600 --> 00:59:55,080 Speaker 21: Coming through the airport at Reagan National Airport, six o'clock 1206 00:59:55,080 --> 00:59:57,640 Speaker 21: at night, everybody's busy, everybody's got to be somewhere. 1207 00:59:57,640 --> 00:59:59,160 Speaker 9: Everyone's important in Washington, right. 1208 01:00:00,600 --> 01:00:03,160 Speaker 21: They came to a halt and they created an incredible 1209 01:00:03,240 --> 01:00:07,680 Speaker 21: line and for seventeen consecutive minutes, important Americans, not important 1210 01:00:07,680 --> 01:00:10,760 Speaker 21: Americans like me, everyday people, people in a hurry, people 1211 01:00:10,840 --> 01:00:12,960 Speaker 21: not in a hurry. They all stood and they clapped 1212 01:00:12,960 --> 01:00:18,400 Speaker 21: for seventeen straight minutes as sixty eight Honor sixty Vietnam 1213 01:00:18,440 --> 01:00:21,280 Speaker 21: War veterans came through on an honor flight. They created 1214 01:00:21,280 --> 01:00:25,040 Speaker 21: this extraordinary column. And these heroes now in wheelchairs, who 1215 01:00:25,080 --> 01:00:27,439 Speaker 21: maybe when they came back in the seventies were spat upon, 1216 01:00:28,000 --> 01:00:31,440 Speaker 21: they were being saluted in the most extraordinary way. And 1217 01:00:30,800 --> 01:00:34,640 Speaker 21: the satisfaction, the tears in their eyes, the Army nurses 1218 01:00:34,680 --> 01:00:36,760 Speaker 21: I got to meet that day as they walked by 1219 01:00:36,800 --> 01:00:39,680 Speaker 21: and strolled by. That is the honor that these incredible 1220 01:00:39,680 --> 01:00:41,919 Speaker 21: heroes deserve every day. And I can't believe anyone would 1221 01:00:41,920 --> 01:00:44,560 Speaker 21: find fault in trying to add that honor one more time. 1222 01:00:44,840 --> 01:00:47,720 Speaker 5: John Solomon, thank you, great. 1223 01:00:48,440 --> 01:00:50,640 Speaker 9: Good, thank you to be with you, guys, appreciate you. 1224 01:00:50,920 --> 01:00:53,920 Speaker 4: All right, coming up Memorial Day and honoring our fallen patriots. 1225 01:00:53,920 --> 01:00:55,880 Speaker 4: In a moment, we're going to take a look back 1226 01:00:55,920 --> 01:00:58,200 Speaker 4: at those who gave all for the sake of this 1227 01:00:58,400 --> 01:00:59,280 Speaker 4: great nation. 1228 01:01:00,400 --> 01:01:28,560 Speaker 17: On American Sunrise, Welcome back to American Sunrise.

And matter of fact, 1309 01:05:51,480 --> 01:05:56,120 Speaker 22: James Garfield, the President, his only executive order was in 1310 01:05:56,200 --> 01:06:00,480 Speaker 22: eighteen eighty one to give Federal troops federal workers off 1311 01:06:00,720 --> 01:06:04,560 Speaker 22: on May thirtieth to decorate the graves of Civil War soldiers. 1312 01:06:04,920 --> 01:06:08,280 Speaker 22: World War One nineteen twenty one, General President Warren G. 1313 01:06:08,400 --> 01:06:11,160 Speaker 22: Harding had the remains of an unknown soldier killed in 1314 01:06:11,200 --> 01:06:14,240 Speaker 22: France brought over and buried in the Tomb of the Unknown, 1315 01:06:14,720 --> 01:06:17,160 Speaker 22: and inscribed on the tomb is here rests in honor 1316 01:06:17,200 --> 01:06:21,000 Speaker 22: glory an American soldier known but to God. And so 1317 01:06:21,120 --> 01:06:24,520 Speaker 22: the President lays a wreath at this tomb, which is 1318 01:06:24,560 --> 01:06:26,600 Speaker 22: guarded three hundred and sixty. 1319 01:06:26,320 --> 01:06:27,760 Speaker 2: Five days a year. 1320 01:06:28,840 --> 01:06:32,520 Speaker 22: The guard twenty one is the highest salute, so he 1321 01:06:32,600 --> 01:06:35,600 Speaker 22: takes twenty one steps, faces the tomb for twenty one seconds, turns, 1322 01:06:35,600 --> 01:06:38,960 Speaker 22: pauses twenty one seconds, retraces his steps, and does that 1323 01:06:39,400 --> 01:06:42,120 Speaker 22: for several hours until he's replaced with the next guard. 1324 01:06:43,240 --> 01:06:46,800 Speaker 22: Calvin Coolidge gave a Decoration Day address nineteen twenty three. 1325 01:06:47,080 --> 01:06:49,280 Speaker 22: There can be no peace with the forces of evil. 1326 01:06:49,320 --> 01:06:51,880 Speaker 22: Peace comes only through the establishment of the supremacy of 1327 01:06:51,920 --> 01:06:55,280 Speaker 22: the forces of good. That way lies through sacrifice. Greater 1328 01:06:55,360 --> 01:06:57,240 Speaker 22: love hath no men than this than a man laid 1329 01:06:57,280 --> 01:07:00,560 Speaker 22: down his life for his friends World Wild War two 1330 01:07:01,280 --> 01:07:04,240 Speaker 22: Franklin Roosevelt's d D Prayer, which was just added to 1331 01:07:04,280 --> 01:07:07,440 Speaker 22: the World War Two Memorial in Washington, d C. At 1332 01:07:07,480 --> 01:07:11,000 Speaker 22: the end of it, he says, some our sons will 1333 01:07:11,000 --> 01:07:13,920 Speaker 22: try it, but some will never return. Embrace these father 1334 01:07:14,200 --> 01:07:19,720 Speaker 22: into thy kingdom. And among those who didn't return was 1335 01:07:19,760 --> 01:07:24,640 Speaker 22: my mom's only brother. I know, John Solomon shared personal stories, 1336 01:07:24,840 --> 01:07:27,240 Speaker 22: and it's so important for us to personalize these that 1337 01:07:27,320 --> 01:07:30,280 Speaker 22: these were our relatives. So growing up on my mom's 1338 01:07:30,360 --> 01:07:34,120 Speaker 22: dresser was her only brother. Orbil Wilford Billy Eperson who's 1339 01:07:34,160 --> 01:07:37,560 Speaker 22: B seventeen was shot down during the D Day. It 1340 01:07:37,640 --> 01:07:40,480 Speaker 22: was called Operation Overlord, and his name is on that 1341 01:07:40,600 --> 01:07:45,960 Speaker 22: memorial in Normandy. Nineteen fifty eight, Eisenhower placed soldiers in 1342 01:07:46,000 --> 01:07:49,479 Speaker 22: the tomb from the World War Two and the Korean War. 1343 01:07:50,120 --> 01:07:53,520 Speaker 22: Nineteen sixty seven, Decoration Day was changed to Memorial Day. 1344 01:07:53,760 --> 01:07:56,680 Speaker 22: Nineteen sixty eight, it was made the first Monday, or 1345 01:07:56,680 --> 01:08:01,760 Speaker 22: excuse me, the last Monday in May. So and this 1346 01:08:01,840 --> 01:08:05,040 Speaker 22: is an interesting personal story. In nineteen eighty four, Reagan 1347 01:08:05,040 --> 01:08:07,440 Speaker 22: put a soldier in there from the Vietnam War, but 1348 01:08:07,600 --> 01:08:11,320 Speaker 22: DNA tests were done and it was a pilot, Michael Blassie, 1349 01:08:11,680 --> 01:08:15,320 Speaker 22: whose A thirty seven B Dragonfly was shot down near 1350 01:08:15,360 --> 01:08:19,240 Speaker 22: An Locke, South Vietnam. He had graduated from the US 1351 01:08:19,280 --> 01:08:22,280 Speaker 22: Air Force and then prior to that, he graduated from 1352 01:08:22,800 --> 01:08:25,759 Speaker 22: my high school, Saint Louis University High School in nineteen 1353 01:08:25,800 --> 01:08:28,680 Speaker 22: sixty six. I graduated in nineteen seventy six. So it 1354 01:08:29,040 --> 01:08:32,919 Speaker 22: makes it real that this was so close. His remains 1355 01:08:32,960 --> 01:08:35,519 Speaker 22: were moved in nineteen ninety eight to Saint Louis the 1356 01:08:35,600 --> 01:08:40,439 Speaker 22: Jefferson Memorial Cemetery there. But you know, memorials passover is 1357 01:08:40,479 --> 01:08:44,719 Speaker 22: a memorial even Joshua put twelve stones on the river 1358 01:08:44,760 --> 01:08:46,160 Speaker 22: bank as a memorial. 1359 01:08:46,560 --> 01:08:46,640 Speaker 23: No. 1360 01:08:46,720 --> 01:08:50,960 Speaker 22: Webster's eighteen twenty a dictionary defined memorial that which preserves 1361 01:08:51,240 --> 01:08:53,920 Speaker 22: the memory of something. A monument is a memorial to 1362 01:08:53,920 --> 01:08:56,720 Speaker 22: a deceased person or an event. The Lord's Supper is 1363 01:08:56,760 --> 01:09:00,120 Speaker 22: a memorial of the death and sufferings of Christ. How 1364 01:09:00,120 --> 01:09:02,680 Speaker 22: important was this that in the year two thousand, Congress 1365 01:09:02,720 --> 01:09:07,360 Speaker 22: passed the National Moment of Remembrance Act, where on every 1366 01:09:07,439 --> 01:09:12,000 Speaker 22: Memorial Day at three pm, citizens should pause for prayer. 1367 01:09:12,880 --> 01:09:15,679 Speaker 22: It says Congress finds it essential to remember and renew 1368 01:09:15,720 --> 01:09:18,400 Speaker 22: the legacy of Memorial Day to pay tribute to the 1369 01:09:18,439 --> 01:09:21,320 Speaker 22: individuals who have made the ultimate sacrifice in the service 1370 01:09:21,360 --> 01:09:25,160 Speaker 22: of the United States. And I love the quote from 1371 01:09:25,479 --> 01:09:29,559 Speaker 22: Douglas MacArthur. He said, the soldier, above all other men, 1372 01:09:29,760 --> 01:09:32,639 Speaker 22: is required to practice the greatest act of religious training, 1373 01:09:32,960 --> 01:09:36,800 Speaker 22: sacrifice in battle, and in the face of danger and death, 1374 01:09:36,840 --> 01:09:40,880 Speaker 22: he discloses those divine attributes which his maker gave him 1375 01:09:40,960 --> 01:09:44,639 Speaker 22: when he created man in his own image. So it's 1376 01:09:44,680 --> 01:09:48,200 Speaker 22: important for us to remember that these freedoms we have, 1377 01:09:48,240 --> 01:09:51,400 Speaker 22: as you mentioned, didn't come by accident. Men and women 1378 01:09:51,479 --> 01:09:54,000 Speaker 22: gave their lives to give us these freedoms. 1379 01:09:55,160 --> 01:09:58,920 Speaker 1: Such a poignant point there, Bill. During World War Two, 1380 01:09:59,000 --> 01:10:01,760 Speaker 1: the Fighting Sullivan were a group of five brothers who 1381 01:10:01,760 --> 01:10:05,639 Speaker 1: are all serving aboard the USS Juno. When a Japanese 1382 01:10:05,680 --> 01:10:09,679 Speaker 1: torpedo struck that ship, four hundred men died instantly. Another 1383 01:10:09,720 --> 01:10:13,360 Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty floated away helplessly in shark infested waters, 1384 01:10:13,720 --> 01:10:17,960 Speaker 1: and once rescue finally arrived, only ten men had survived. 1385 01:10:18,000 --> 01:10:21,080 Speaker 1: None of them were named Sullivan. It's today one of 1386 01:10:21,120 --> 01:10:24,639 Speaker 1: the most tragic stories in our nation's combat history. Their death, 1387 01:10:24,800 --> 01:10:27,840 Speaker 1: of course, also changed the entire country. Can you take 1388 01:10:27,920 --> 01:10:29,920 Speaker 1: us inside that story a little bit more off from 1389 01:10:29,960 --> 01:10:30,800 Speaker 1: more perspective? 1390 01:10:31,880 --> 01:10:34,400 Speaker 22: Yeah, it was actually turned into a movie in nineteen 1391 01:10:34,479 --> 01:10:38,320 Speaker 22: forty four. But yeah, five Irish brothers served on the 1392 01:10:38,439 --> 01:10:44,280 Speaker 22: USS Juno. A torpedo from a Japanese ship hit it 1393 01:10:44,400 --> 01:10:46,680 Speaker 22: and disabled it, but it still was floating, and then 1394 01:10:46,720 --> 01:10:52,400 Speaker 22: another torpedo hit the gunpowder magazine and it sank in 1395 01:10:52,439 --> 01:10:56,960 Speaker 22: twenty seconds. One hundred soldiers made it off, but in 1396 01:10:56,960 --> 01:10:59,920 Speaker 22: the next eight days the sharks picked them away until 1397 01:11:00,000 --> 01:11:02,960 Speaker 22: there's only ten left and they were in little boats. 1398 01:11:03,080 --> 01:11:08,080 Speaker 22: They actually dropped a package a plane for them, but 1399 01:11:08,160 --> 01:11:10,759 Speaker 22: it was fifty feet away, and so one of the 1400 01:11:10,800 --> 01:11:14,439 Speaker 22: soldiers had to swim across the shark invested water to 1401 01:11:14,439 --> 01:11:16,080 Speaker 22: get the package. You had a pocket knife and was 1402 01:11:16,120 --> 01:11:19,360 Speaker 22: stabbing the sharks. And three of the men were on 1403 01:11:19,400 --> 01:11:23,840 Speaker 22: a little raft that floated fifty five miles away and 1404 01:11:24,160 --> 01:11:26,280 Speaker 22: washed up on an island and they survived. But only 1405 01:11:26,360 --> 01:11:31,840 Speaker 22: ten out of the nearly seven hundred survived the USS Juno, 1406 01:11:32,200 --> 01:11:36,639 Speaker 22: which sank to thirteen thousand feet of depth. Terrible tragedy. 1407 01:11:36,640 --> 01:11:40,519 Speaker 22: This is the same area where John F. Kennedy with 1408 01:11:40,640 --> 01:11:45,400 Speaker 22: PT One O nine and many stories. But we remember 1409 01:11:45,439 --> 01:11:49,240 Speaker 22: and relive these stories because again, if we don't tell 1410 01:11:49,280 --> 01:11:52,840 Speaker 22: them to the next generation, they never happened. And we 1411 01:11:52,840 --> 01:11:56,880 Speaker 22: need to realize that freedom doesn't happen by accident. The 1412 01:11:56,880 --> 01:12:00,160 Speaker 22: rest of the world, you have gang leader as rulers, 1413 01:12:00,360 --> 01:12:03,200 Speaker 22: and in America we have these freedom of conscience, freedom 1414 01:12:03,240 --> 01:12:06,000 Speaker 22: of speech for repressed that need to be valued and defended. 1415 01:12:07,360 --> 01:12:10,519 Speaker 1: You know, I was just going to say, I'm sorry, 1416 01:12:10,520 --> 01:12:12,439 Speaker 1: I just wanted to clarify really quickly. 1417 01:12:12,680 --> 01:12:13,679 Speaker 2: How about those brothers. 1418 01:12:13,720 --> 01:12:16,960 Speaker 1: It's my understanding that them all serving on that same 1419 01:12:17,040 --> 01:12:21,680 Speaker 1: ship that it inspired legislation move that disallowed brothers to 1420 01:12:22,320 --> 01:12:26,200 Speaker 1: serve in the same combat theater or something like that. 1421 01:12:26,200 --> 01:12:27,320 Speaker 2: Can you explain that correctly? 1422 01:12:28,040 --> 01:12:28,400 Speaker 9: Correct? 1423 01:12:28,479 --> 01:12:31,280 Speaker 22: Yeah, the decision was made to split families up, so 1424 01:12:31,320 --> 01:12:34,920 Speaker 22: if there's several siblings, they're not going to serve on 1425 01:12:34,960 --> 01:12:39,920 Speaker 22: the same ship or be in the same group. So yeah, 1426 01:12:39,960 --> 01:12:45,360 Speaker 22: and they all died. All ten of those men died, Bill, 1427 01:12:45,960 --> 01:12:47,160 Speaker 22: All five of the brothers died. 1428 01:12:47,200 --> 01:12:50,840 Speaker 4: Excuse me, right, right, So you know, a lot of 1429 01:12:50,840 --> 01:12:53,400 Speaker 4: our audience may not know that. When my husband was 1430 01:12:53,520 --> 01:12:56,400 Speaker 4: very first running, I was a little twenty something years 1431 01:12:56,400 --> 01:12:58,400 Speaker 4: old and my husband was running, and I went to 1432 01:12:58,439 --> 01:13:02,080 Speaker 4: a bookstore to find books that I thought might be 1433 01:13:02,120 --> 01:13:06,479 Speaker 4: good for him to give political speeches. And I bought 1434 01:13:07,040 --> 01:13:10,639 Speaker 4: an amazing book that day, and it was authored by 1435 01:13:10,640 --> 01:13:14,320 Speaker 4: a certain gentleman named Bill Federer. And that night I 1436 01:13:14,360 --> 01:13:17,280 Speaker 4: went to an event with Phyllis Schlaffley, you all remember 1437 01:13:17,320 --> 01:13:20,680 Speaker 4: who she is, and an amazing mentor to me ultimately 1438 01:13:20,720 --> 01:13:23,320 Speaker 4: and to my husband. And I met a man there 1439 01:13:23,439 --> 01:13:25,400 Speaker 4: and he said his name was Bill Feederer, and I said, 1440 01:13:25,439 --> 01:13:27,320 Speaker 4: that's impossible. I just bought a book by a man 1441 01:13:27,400 --> 01:13:29,840 Speaker 4: named Bill Federer, And you said, yeah, that's me. 1442 01:13:30,600 --> 01:13:32,400 Speaker 5: Without your books. 1443 01:13:32,240 --> 01:13:35,280 Speaker 4: I don't know how I would have homeschooled my five children. 1444 01:13:35,479 --> 01:13:36,120 Speaker 5: I really don't. 1445 01:13:36,360 --> 01:13:40,120 Speaker 4: Without American minute every single day, I don't know how 1446 01:13:40,160 --> 01:13:42,799 Speaker 4: I would have homeschooled my five children. 1447 01:13:42,920 --> 01:13:44,200 Speaker 5: They have read your books. 1448 01:13:44,280 --> 01:13:47,879 Speaker 4: They know history because of people like you, and really, frankly, 1449 01:13:47,920 --> 01:13:51,920 Speaker 4: mostly you, because you've done such a great job creating 1450 01:13:51,960 --> 01:13:54,400 Speaker 4: compilations of our history that are so important. 1451 01:13:55,080 --> 01:13:56,920 Speaker 10: But how Bill. 1452 01:13:57,280 --> 01:14:00,080 Speaker 5: Does Bill Federer? How did Bill Federer. 1453 01:13:59,720 --> 01:14:03,679 Speaker 4: Raise his children to understand and know and digest our 1454 01:14:03,840 --> 01:14:07,240 Speaker 4: history because you didn't have Bill Federer's books, right, I did? 1455 01:14:09,320 --> 01:14:10,479 Speaker 9: Well. 1456 01:14:10,840 --> 01:14:14,280 Speaker 22: You and John are dear friends, and you're tremendous leaders, 1457 01:14:14,360 --> 01:14:16,559 Speaker 22: and I'm so proud of your family. BOA was recently 1458 01:14:16,600 --> 01:14:19,040 Speaker 22: at an event and somebody says, I follow Bowl out 1459 01:14:19,080 --> 01:14:21,639 Speaker 22: and he is just great. And it's like you're making 1460 01:14:21,800 --> 01:14:24,280 Speaker 22: ripple effects around the entire country. 1461 01:14:24,600 --> 01:14:24,840 Speaker 9: You know. 1462 01:14:25,000 --> 01:14:28,440 Speaker 22: When I was at Jefferson Memorial Cemetery where they reburied 1463 01:14:28,479 --> 01:14:32,000 Speaker 22: Michael Blassie, I had my daughter with me and I 1464 01:14:32,040 --> 01:14:35,440 Speaker 22: had her over my shoulders and were walking amongst the 1465 01:14:35,479 --> 01:14:38,760 Speaker 22: graves and she gets off of she's running around and 1466 01:14:38,840 --> 01:14:41,160 Speaker 22: she saw the dates and I said, well, that's the 1467 01:14:41,240 --> 01:14:43,479 Speaker 22: date that they were born, and then the second is 1468 01:14:43,520 --> 01:14:45,200 Speaker 22: the date that they died and she said, Daddy, what 1469 01:14:45,520 --> 01:14:47,400 Speaker 22: year were you born? I said nineteen fifty seven, and 1470 01:14:47,439 --> 01:14:50,560 Speaker 22: she scurries off. She goes, Daddy, here's one that's your age. 1471 01:14:51,200 --> 01:14:54,400 Speaker 22: And I thought to myself, this person's life is over, 1472 01:14:55,040 --> 01:14:58,360 Speaker 22: but they have a testimony that they were willing to 1473 01:14:58,439 --> 01:15:00,800 Speaker 22: give their life to defend our freedom. And then I 1474 01:15:00,840 --> 01:15:02,400 Speaker 22: looked at my daughter and think, what am I doing 1475 01:15:02,439 --> 01:15:04,040 Speaker 22: to pass these freedoms onto her? 1476 01:15:06,360 --> 01:15:08,559 Speaker 3: Bill Fetter, just an absolute pleasure. 1477 01:15:08,640 --> 01:15:11,839 Speaker 6: I'm just glad that my daughter is a history major 1478 01:15:12,240 --> 01:15:14,880 Speaker 6: at a liberal college, University of Maryland, College Park, and 1479 01:15:14,920 --> 01:15:18,720 Speaker 6: she came out more conservative because she was a freethinker. 1480 01:15:18,120 --> 01:15:19,040 Speaker 9: And thought for herself. 1481 01:15:19,080 --> 01:15:21,599 Speaker 6: So I just pray a bit more freethinkers out there 1482 01:15:21,640 --> 01:15:22,000 Speaker 6: for sure. 1483 01:15:22,040 --> 01:15:22,880 Speaker 9: Thank you so much, sir. 1484 01:15:23,040 --> 01:15:27,200 Speaker 3: Absolutely all right, more of. 1485 01:15:27,160 --> 01:15:30,439 Speaker 6: The special Memorial Day edition of American Sunrise after this. 1486 01:15:52,560 --> 01:15:54,840 Speaker 4: All right, welcome back to American Sunrise. I'm back to Gina. 1487 01:15:54,960 --> 01:15:58,280 Speaker 4: Thanks for joining us this Memorial Day morning. It's time 1488 01:15:58,320 --> 01:16:01,200 Speaker 4: now to take the political pulse of America. The beat 1489 01:16:01,200 --> 01:16:05,200 Speaker 4: today Memorial Day and gas not the type you get 1490 01:16:05,280 --> 01:16:08,439 Speaker 4: from the food at barbecues who attended this weekend or 1491 01:16:08,560 --> 01:16:10,880 Speaker 4: might later. But we're not even talking about the fuel 1492 01:16:10,920 --> 01:16:13,400 Speaker 4: that fired them up. We're talking about gas prices, and 1493 01:16:13,439 --> 01:16:15,760 Speaker 4: we have a big thank you to President Trump. 1494 01:16:15,840 --> 01:16:16,760 Speaker 5: Here's the headline. 1495 01:16:16,880 --> 01:16:19,920 Speaker 4: Memorial Day weekend gas prices might be the lowest in decades. 1496 01:16:19,920 --> 01:16:21,760 Speaker 5: Sources say they will be the lowest. 1497 01:16:21,439 --> 01:16:24,080 Speaker 4: In the South and highest in the West, but a 1498 01:16:24,120 --> 01:16:28,519 Speaker 4: bargain pretty much every place else under President Trump. Under 1499 01:16:28,560 --> 01:16:32,559 Speaker 4: President Biden, rather, gas prices fluctuated, peaking at an average 1500 01:16:32,600 --> 01:16:34,800 Speaker 4: five oh one per gallon in June of twenty two, 1501 01:16:34,880 --> 01:16:38,400 Speaker 4: the highest on record. So much winning though under President Trump, 1502 01:16:38,680 --> 01:16:43,760 Speaker 4: it's unbelievable. David, want to bring you in. I think 1503 01:16:43,760 --> 01:16:46,200 Speaker 4: I can bring Terrence back in there. He is Terrence, 1504 01:16:46,720 --> 01:16:48,040 Speaker 4: and you know these. 1505 01:16:47,880 --> 01:16:49,280 Speaker 2: Are I want to talk about gas. 1506 01:16:49,560 --> 01:16:53,519 Speaker 4: These gas prices, These gas prices that we really have 1507 01:16:53,640 --> 01:16:57,559 Speaker 4: to stop to appreciate because under Joe Biden they were 1508 01:16:57,600 --> 01:17:01,320 Speaker 4: so horrible, not even just gas, grocery in general, eggs, 1509 01:17:01,400 --> 01:17:05,320 Speaker 4: remember all that. And President Trump has really made a difference. 1510 01:17:05,360 --> 01:17:06,920 Speaker 5: And this is something that. 1511 01:17:08,680 --> 01:17:11,840 Speaker 4: It provides freedom for families to be able to go 1512 01:17:11,880 --> 01:17:14,400 Speaker 4: to see who they want to see, to travel to 1513 01:17:14,600 --> 01:17:20,559 Speaker 4: family events, to celebrate birthdays and graduations this time of year, 1514 01:17:20,680 --> 01:17:23,880 Speaker 4: and all the rest of it. Let alone to acknowledge 1515 01:17:24,000 --> 01:17:25,400 Speaker 4: Memorial Day in the way. 1516 01:17:25,240 --> 01:17:26,240 Speaker 5: That Americans want to. 1517 01:17:26,360 --> 01:17:28,920 Speaker 4: The kind of freedom that comes from lower gas prices. 1518 01:17:29,080 --> 01:17:31,200 Speaker 4: It's really hard to put a price on David. I 1519 01:17:31,280 --> 01:17:32,560 Speaker 4: just say that, I think I did. That was a 1520 01:17:32,640 --> 01:17:33,559 Speaker 4: David Broading moment. 1521 01:17:35,280 --> 01:17:38,439 Speaker 6: That's funny, right, And think about it, Gene in Terns. 1522 01:17:38,479 --> 01:17:41,080 Speaker 6: It's just a couple of months in just a couple 1523 01:17:41,120 --> 01:17:44,040 Speaker 6: of months in so I mean, right, I mean, what 1524 01:17:44,120 --> 01:17:48,360 Speaker 6: Trump inherited from Biden was a colossal disaster, and already 1525 01:17:48,400 --> 01:17:50,240 Speaker 6: we're starting to see the difference. And a lot of 1526 01:17:50,280 --> 01:17:52,920 Speaker 6: it has to do not necessarily with the policy, because 1527 01:17:52,920 --> 01:17:56,280 Speaker 6: the policy hasn't been specifically enacted, though some rules. 1528 01:17:56,000 --> 01:17:57,080 Speaker 3: And regulations have changed. 1529 01:17:57,320 --> 01:18:00,000 Speaker 6: But it's what the climate feels like, in other words, 1530 01:18:00,120 --> 01:18:03,000 Speaker 6: what industry feels like, what industry is seen from this 1531 01:18:03,040 --> 01:18:06,280 Speaker 6: administration and seeing the shackles come off. It's that type 1532 01:18:06,320 --> 01:18:09,280 Speaker 6: of thing that will spur innovation, spur prices to go down, 1533 01:18:09,280 --> 01:18:12,439 Speaker 6: and all of that. So just think teammates quarter two, 1534 01:18:13,000 --> 01:18:15,599 Speaker 6: were in quarter two, quarter three, quarter four, the tax 1535 01:18:15,640 --> 01:18:17,960 Speaker 6: cuts kick in, and you just go down the list 1536 01:18:17,960 --> 01:18:20,840 Speaker 6: of all the budget reconciliation stuff that finally gets done, 1537 01:18:21,000 --> 01:18:24,680 Speaker 6: hopefully by July fourth, and then it talk about a 1538 01:18:24,680 --> 01:18:27,840 Speaker 6: golden age. I mean, yeah, it's a golden age for sure. 1539 01:18:29,040 --> 01:18:29,320 Speaker 9: Yeah. 1540 01:18:29,360 --> 01:18:31,439 Speaker 1: And I mean, you know, all of these moves are 1541 01:18:31,439 --> 01:18:33,719 Speaker 1: being made now. But I think you make a great point, David, 1542 01:18:34,040 --> 01:18:37,080 Speaker 1: Quarter two, quarter three. You know, the end of the year, 1543 01:18:37,280 --> 01:18:39,760 Speaker 1: that's when we'll really see if they're working and the 1544 01:18:39,800 --> 01:18:43,360 Speaker 1: impact that it ultimately has on the larger economy. And 1545 01:18:43,400 --> 01:18:45,760 Speaker 1: to your point, doctor Gina, it's not just freedom. In 1546 01:18:45,800 --> 01:18:48,200 Speaker 1: my mind, some of these prices going down is really 1547 01:18:48,200 --> 01:18:50,840 Speaker 1: about quality of life. And that's why I believe many 1548 01:18:50,880 --> 01:18:54,120 Speaker 1: Americans are so many Americans elected President Trump because their 1549 01:18:54,160 --> 01:18:58,120 Speaker 1: old quality of life wasn't something that was comfortable, and 1550 01:18:58,320 --> 01:19:00,559 Speaker 1: they saw him being able to change that. And I 1551 01:19:00,560 --> 01:19:02,840 Speaker 1: think to some degree, we're already starting to see those 1552 01:19:02,960 --> 01:19:05,519 Speaker 1: changes and people are feeling that their quality of life 1553 01:19:05,560 --> 01:19:06,200 Speaker 1: has improved. 1554 01:19:06,240 --> 01:19:08,680 Speaker 2: So that's a good thing, all right. 1555 01:19:08,720 --> 01:19:11,080 Speaker 1: We want to change gears now because today, of course, 1556 01:19:11,240 --> 01:19:14,080 Speaker 1: is a special and solemn day for our entire nation 1557 01:19:14,280 --> 01:19:16,840 Speaker 1: and for our brave men and women who served and 1558 01:19:16,880 --> 01:19:20,679 Speaker 1: came home. The experience of losing brothers and sisters, though, 1559 01:19:20,880 --> 01:19:23,840 Speaker 1: well that was not only painful, but it lingers. Joining 1560 01:19:23,920 --> 01:19:27,040 Speaker 1: us now with insight into fighting and surviving is forming 1561 01:19:27,160 --> 01:19:31,280 Speaker 1: former Navy seal and former FBI agent Jonathan Gilliam. Jonathan, 1562 01:19:31,320 --> 01:19:33,599 Speaker 1: it is always good to see you. You, of course, 1563 01:19:33,640 --> 01:19:37,160 Speaker 1: have served in the military and the FBI. So let's 1564 01:19:37,160 --> 01:19:39,400 Speaker 1: start broad. What does this memorial they. 1565 01:19:39,280 --> 01:19:39,760 Speaker 2: Mean to you? 1566 01:19:40,280 --> 01:19:43,240 Speaker 23: It means a tremendous amount to me, and even more 1567 01:19:43,280 --> 01:19:46,920 Speaker 23: I think now, because we have literally come out of 1568 01:19:47,760 --> 01:19:50,599 Speaker 23: not a civil war, but we've come out of a 1569 01:19:50,680 --> 01:19:54,840 Speaker 23: subversive war that's been waged in this nation. And now 1570 01:19:54,880 --> 01:19:57,240 Speaker 23: that President Trump is back in and I know the left, 1571 01:19:57,280 --> 01:19:59,839 Speaker 23: we'll hear this and they'll think this is very cliche 1572 01:20:00,120 --> 01:20:03,280 Speaker 23: that you know, I'm just a Trump super fan. I 1573 01:20:03,320 --> 01:20:06,599 Speaker 23: look at Trump as a leader, a great leader, and 1574 01:20:06,640 --> 01:20:10,240 Speaker 23: somebody who's operationally capable, capable of failing and then coming 1575 01:20:10,280 --> 01:20:13,360 Speaker 23: back and succeeding. I've always thought of him as that 1576 01:20:13,400 --> 01:20:17,639 Speaker 23: type of a leader. But he's proven that he has 1577 01:20:17,680 --> 01:20:21,439 Speaker 23: the ability to lead a nation. And when you look 1578 01:20:21,479 --> 01:20:25,400 Speaker 23: at the men and women that stepped forward and sacrificed 1579 01:20:25,479 --> 01:20:28,519 Speaker 23: their lives, to know that there's a leader there again 1580 01:20:29,439 --> 01:20:33,880 Speaker 23: that is not going to waste that sacrifice means so much. 1581 01:20:34,280 --> 01:20:37,200 Speaker 23: It's so tremendous. And the men and women that served 1582 01:20:38,479 --> 01:20:41,600 Speaker 23: during the periods of time where we were in frivolous 1583 01:20:41,640 --> 01:20:45,840 Speaker 23: wars or we didn't have anything going on but as 1584 01:20:45,880 --> 01:20:48,640 Speaker 23: far as war goes, but that here at home, that 1585 01:20:49,000 --> 01:20:52,879 Speaker 23: things were just getting worse and the veterans were hurting 1586 01:20:53,320 --> 01:20:55,920 Speaker 23: because they weren't being taken care of. I look at 1587 01:20:55,960 --> 01:21:00,600 Speaker 23: it as the ebb and flow of freedom and the 1588 01:21:00,720 --> 01:21:04,320 Speaker 23: fact that men and women always step forward when it's 1589 01:21:04,360 --> 01:21:07,759 Speaker 23: time to step forward, not when it's time for something 1590 01:21:07,760 --> 01:21:10,400 Speaker 23: to happen, but before it's time for that to happen, 1591 01:21:10,640 --> 01:21:12,639 Speaker 23: so we can be prepared, so we can have these 1592 01:21:12,720 --> 01:21:16,240 Speaker 23: veterans that when we lose one of those warriors. 1593 01:21:16,560 --> 01:21:18,559 Speaker 3: It's just a for me. 1594 01:21:19,400 --> 01:21:22,320 Speaker 23: I don't look at it as a loss. I look 1595 01:21:22,360 --> 01:21:26,280 Speaker 23: at that as a life well lived, a life with meaning, 1596 01:21:26,640 --> 01:21:30,000 Speaker 23: and a life that allows me and everyone else in 1597 01:21:30,000 --> 01:21:32,120 Speaker 23: this ebb and flow of freedom that we have here 1598 01:21:32,400 --> 01:21:36,479 Speaker 23: to progress, which is a polar opposite of how so 1599 01:21:36,640 --> 01:21:41,400 Speaker 23: many people in this nation treat their freedom. And so 1600 01:21:41,520 --> 01:21:44,280 Speaker 23: to know that those people have been there that allowed 1601 01:21:44,360 --> 01:21:47,080 Speaker 23: us to have this freedom, that they were there in 1602 01:21:47,200 --> 01:21:50,599 Speaker 23: times when things weren't happening, but they were prepared, and 1603 01:21:50,640 --> 01:21:54,080 Speaker 23: even in times when people weren't going in the military 1604 01:21:54,080 --> 01:22:00,400 Speaker 23: because the leadership was so bad. I salute those individuals 1605 01:22:00,439 --> 01:22:03,559 Speaker 23: for all that they have done and the sacrifices that 1606 01:22:03,600 --> 01:22:07,680 Speaker 23: they have made. And it's an honor to know that 1607 01:22:07,680 --> 01:22:11,600 Speaker 23: that those individuals came before me, they were there with me, 1608 01:22:12,200 --> 01:22:19,879 Speaker 23: and they're still stepping forward now. And we will lose soldiers, airmen, seamen, 1609 01:22:19,960 --> 01:22:24,040 Speaker 23: we will marines, We will lose these individuals in their 1610 01:22:24,080 --> 01:22:29,600 Speaker 23: service at times, because that's the cost of freedom. And 1611 01:22:29,600 --> 01:22:34,240 Speaker 23: and so I celebrate those lives on this day. It 1612 01:22:35,000 --> 01:22:42,320 Speaker 23: sounds solemn, but it's a celebration of sacrifice and not 1613 01:22:42,439 --> 01:22:45,799 Speaker 23: taking freedom for granted. That that's the way I look. 1614 01:22:45,640 --> 01:22:46,120 Speaker 9: At this. 1615 01:22:49,760 --> 01:22:52,719 Speaker 3: Professional life and service to our country. 1616 01:22:53,479 --> 01:22:56,000 Speaker 6: And so I'm curious kind of what drove you personally 1617 01:22:56,640 --> 01:22:58,759 Speaker 6: to give back so much and at such great risks. 1618 01:22:58,760 --> 01:23:01,080 Speaker 6: You thought you were joining Americans sunrise this morning. I 1619 01:23:01,080 --> 01:23:03,200 Speaker 6: think you have now joined the Doctor Phil show as 1620 01:23:03,200 --> 01:23:04,120 Speaker 6: we go deeper to. 1621 01:23:04,240 --> 01:23:07,679 Speaker 23: You, which I've been on that show before. So that's 1622 01:23:08,240 --> 01:23:08,880 Speaker 23: interesting time. 1623 01:23:10,479 --> 01:23:10,519 Speaker 22: No. 1624 01:23:11,000 --> 01:23:15,200 Speaker 23: I was in California at the time, going to college. 1625 01:23:15,320 --> 01:23:18,280 Speaker 23: I knew that I wanted to go with the military 1626 01:23:18,320 --> 01:23:21,080 Speaker 23: at some point, but I sat down and wrote a 1627 01:23:21,680 --> 01:23:24,080 Speaker 23: I was studying philosophies and religions at the time that 1628 01:23:24,160 --> 01:23:27,479 Speaker 23: was my double major changed to political science psychology. But 1629 01:23:27,600 --> 01:23:30,759 Speaker 23: I wrote a timeline for my life and I said, 1630 01:23:31,200 --> 01:23:34,040 Speaker 23: this is the present time here, and this is when 1631 01:23:34,160 --> 01:23:36,760 Speaker 23: my life ends. And I wrote down everything that I 1632 01:23:36,840 --> 01:23:39,240 Speaker 23: wanted to do or that God was calling me to 1633 01:23:39,280 --> 01:23:40,840 Speaker 23: do in that point in time. 1634 01:23:40,920 --> 01:23:42,360 Speaker 3: And one of the things. 1635 01:23:42,200 --> 01:23:44,360 Speaker 23: I was studying at that time was the Book of 1636 01:23:44,439 --> 01:23:47,880 Speaker 23: Job and how he had everything taken from him, and 1637 01:23:48,200 --> 01:23:51,120 Speaker 23: God said, you know what about my servant Job? Have 1638 01:23:51,240 --> 01:23:54,200 Speaker 23: you tested him? And I felt like God was calling 1639 01:23:54,240 --> 01:23:57,600 Speaker 23: me to give up what I had and serve this 1640 01:23:57,800 --> 01:24:03,920 Speaker 23: nation and serve him selflessly. And there's no greater place 1641 01:24:03,960 --> 01:24:07,000 Speaker 23: to do that than in the Seal Teams. And then 1642 01:24:07,080 --> 01:24:10,400 Speaker 23: later on in Ranger School going through that, I just 1643 01:24:10,479 --> 01:24:14,439 Speaker 23: felt like that was a calling and it wasn't anything 1644 01:24:14,479 --> 01:24:18,240 Speaker 23: compared to what Job went through, because Job did not 1645 01:24:18,360 --> 01:24:21,040 Speaker 23: choose for those things to happen, But I chose to 1646 01:24:21,080 --> 01:24:24,920 Speaker 23: put myself in those circumstances so that I could see 1647 01:24:24,960 --> 01:24:28,839 Speaker 23: what I made of and serve the nation and our freedom. 1648 01:24:29,080 --> 01:24:32,320 Speaker 23: Like I was speaking about before, with everything that I had. 1649 01:24:34,200 --> 01:24:37,160 Speaker 4: Jonathan, taking a look at the state of the world today, 1650 01:24:37,800 --> 01:24:41,400 Speaker 4: what do you see as the biggest threats facing the 1651 01:24:41,520 --> 01:24:43,560 Speaker 4: United States, both for an and domestic. 1652 01:24:46,000 --> 01:24:50,200 Speaker 23: So let's start with the smaller threat that I see, 1653 01:24:50,240 --> 01:24:53,920 Speaker 23: which is the foreign threat I see. Of course, we 1654 01:24:54,360 --> 01:24:58,040 Speaker 23: know that China is always playing a game, and so 1655 01:24:58,160 --> 01:25:01,639 Speaker 23: the same goes as Iran. I don't see them playing 1656 01:25:01,640 --> 01:25:04,960 Speaker 23: as big of a game directly with the United States 1657 01:25:05,000 --> 01:25:08,599 Speaker 23: as I do in the economic world. In the global 1658 01:25:08,640 --> 01:25:13,479 Speaker 23: affairs world, Iran and China, though, they are playing games 1659 01:25:13,479 --> 01:25:17,000 Speaker 23: that directly affect the United States and our interests, and 1660 01:25:17,600 --> 01:25:22,760 Speaker 23: the threat of military intervention or conflict with those two 1661 01:25:22,840 --> 01:25:26,960 Speaker 23: nations is always there. I look at it as Iran 1662 01:25:27,120 --> 01:25:31,080 Speaker 23: runs over forty proxies. You know, you noticed, Iran never 1663 01:25:31,120 --> 01:25:33,960 Speaker 23: goes to war. They always send their proxies to do 1664 01:25:34,040 --> 01:25:37,120 Speaker 23: the fighting for them. So those I think are big 1665 01:25:37,160 --> 01:25:42,920 Speaker 23: things that we see out there. The Israel Palestinian conflict 1666 01:25:43,280 --> 01:25:45,639 Speaker 23: has evolved in a way that I just never would 1667 01:25:45,640 --> 01:25:49,120 Speaker 23: have seen coming. That people are starting to turn on Israel. 1668 01:25:49,400 --> 01:25:51,880 Speaker 23: That is something that could draw us in if President 1669 01:25:51,880 --> 01:25:55,360 Speaker 23: Trump doesn't handle that correctly. But I think our biggest 1670 01:25:55,520 --> 01:25:59,400 Speaker 23: national security threat here is here domestically, and that's the 1671 01:26:00,000 --> 01:26:04,800 Speaker 23: I this ideological criminal enterprise that was and still is 1672 01:26:05,320 --> 01:26:09,040 Speaker 23: running most of the government. Even though the Democrats didn't win, 1673 01:26:09,439 --> 01:26:12,960 Speaker 23: they did, you know, an incredible job of inputting and 1674 01:26:13,000 --> 01:26:16,920 Speaker 23: secreting these people into all these agencies and just below 1675 01:26:16,960 --> 01:26:20,640 Speaker 23: these political appointees that we see that President Trump has 1676 01:26:20,680 --> 01:26:24,679 Speaker 23: put in. That's where those people exist. And I don't 1677 01:26:24,680 --> 01:26:31,800 Speaker 23: see a unified investigation across all these government agencies where 1678 01:26:31,840 --> 01:26:34,479 Speaker 23: that's being looked at. Those did a great showed us 1679 01:26:34,520 --> 01:26:37,280 Speaker 23: a great example. I don't see that happening in the 1680 01:26:37,320 --> 01:26:41,240 Speaker 23: other federal agencies, looking at the personnel and the people. 1681 01:26:41,680 --> 01:26:44,479 Speaker 23: And if that doesn't happen, that they're going to get 1682 01:26:44,520 --> 01:26:45,840 Speaker 23: back in power one way or another. 1683 01:26:47,360 --> 01:26:49,519 Speaker 4: Jonathan Gilliam, thank you so much for joining us today, 1684 01:26:49,520 --> 01:26:52,519 Speaker 4: and thank you for a lifetime of service to our 1685 01:26:52,600 --> 01:26:53,519 Speaker 4: country and our freedom. 1686 01:26:53,520 --> 01:26:56,320 Speaker 23: Thinking yes, yes, Joda, God bless. 1687 01:26:56,120 --> 01:26:56,640 Speaker 5: God, bless you. 1688 01:26:57,200 --> 01:26:59,320 Speaker 4: We'll be back with more of the special Memorial Day 1689 01:26:59,400 --> 01:27:01,240 Speaker 4: edition of America in Sunrise in just a moment. 1690 01:27:19,200 --> 01:27:20,559 Speaker 8: Let's Spill some Tea. 1691 01:27:24,720 --> 01:27:27,559 Speaker 1: Let's Spill Some Tea is sponsored by Artillery Tea Company. 1692 01:27:27,640 --> 01:27:31,280 Speaker 1: Artillerytco dot com is the website.

We 1716 01:28:39,000 --> 01:28:43,679 Speaker 1: talked shortly after that, so many months were probably close 1717 01:28:43,720 --> 01:28:46,800 Speaker 1: to a year later. As you, as you observe this 1718 01:28:46,920 --> 01:28:49,120 Speaker 1: Memorial Day, what are some of your thoughts, what are 1719 01:28:49,120 --> 01:28:50,120 Speaker 1: some of your feelings. 1720 01:28:51,880 --> 01:28:53,880 Speaker 24: I think you guys heard a lot from your previous guests. 1721 01:28:53,920 --> 01:28:56,599 Speaker 24: I have to agree with all of them, especially your 1722 01:28:56,680 --> 01:28:59,600 Speaker 24: last guests. He mentioned that even if we're not in 1723 01:28:59,640 --> 01:29:03,000 Speaker 24: a four luck kinetic war, or during Biden's administration, when 1724 01:29:03,080 --> 01:29:05,880 Speaker 24: things were you know, soldiers I was in during that 1725 01:29:06,000 --> 01:29:09,400 Speaker 24: and soldiers were questioning why they were even serving. And 1726 01:29:10,400 --> 01:29:12,200 Speaker 24: I think it's a it's a testament to those who 1727 01:29:12,280 --> 01:29:16,720 Speaker 24: stayed in regardless for their country, for their families that 1728 01:29:16,760 --> 01:29:19,000 Speaker 24: really made the difference. And the people that did lose 1729 01:29:19,040 --> 01:29:22,960 Speaker 24: their lives during the administration, whether you think justly or unjustly, 1730 01:29:23,040 --> 01:29:26,360 Speaker 24: doesn't matter. They served regardless through thick and thin, to 1731 01:29:26,400 --> 01:29:28,800 Speaker 24: stick with this country to keep our freedom, because let's 1732 01:29:28,840 --> 01:29:32,040 Speaker 24: be honest, the Western world is all but almost dead 1733 01:29:32,120 --> 01:29:34,759 Speaker 24: except for America or the last or the last country 1734 01:29:34,760 --> 01:29:36,760 Speaker 24: that still has the freedoms, but the rest of the 1735 01:29:36,800 --> 01:29:40,240 Speaker 24: world doesn't experience no absolutely. 1736 01:29:40,640 --> 01:29:42,439 Speaker 1: I'd like to talk a bit about some of what 1737 01:29:42,600 --> 01:29:45,720 Speaker 1: Artillery Tea Company is doing to help military families. I 1738 01:29:45,760 --> 01:29:47,559 Speaker 1: know there are a number of projects that you guys 1739 01:29:47,600 --> 01:29:51,320 Speaker 1: engaged in, but tell us about some of them. 1740 01:29:51,400 --> 01:29:51,599 Speaker 16: Yeah. 1741 01:29:51,600 --> 01:29:53,640 Speaker 24: Absolutely, I don't want to take away from from the 1742 01:29:53,640 --> 01:29:56,400 Speaker 24: purpose of today, but we try to stick around ten 1743 01:29:56,439 --> 01:29:59,479 Speaker 24: percent of the profits that we make to veteran and 1744 01:29:59,520 --> 01:30:04,280 Speaker 24: first response organizations. We have some partnerships with Working Dogs 1745 01:30:04,280 --> 01:30:07,240 Speaker 24: for Vets that you guys had them on your show 1746 01:30:07,280 --> 01:30:10,800 Speaker 24: not too long ago. We have a project with Fist 1747 01:30:10,800 --> 01:30:14,160 Speaker 24: Squad from Mississippi, and we have a project with Project Lakeview. 1748 01:30:14,680 --> 01:30:17,640 Speaker 24: So those are consistent donations that we make to those organizations, 1749 01:30:17,640 --> 01:30:20,880 Speaker 24: and we always make one off donations to whatever organization 1750 01:30:20,960 --> 01:30:23,280 Speaker 24: we feel like needs it at that time. So we've 1751 01:30:23,280 --> 01:30:27,480 Speaker 24: done the Gary Sonice Foundation, We've done gold Star Families. 1752 01:30:27,880 --> 01:30:30,879 Speaker 24: We also donate regularly to our local fire and police companies. 1753 01:30:30,920 --> 01:30:34,040 Speaker 24: So we're doing our best with the money that God 1754 01:30:34,080 --> 01:30:36,840 Speaker 24: gives us, and hopefully we can do more. 1755 01:30:38,360 --> 01:30:42,200 Speaker 1: You're being blessed and you're being a blessing. What motivated 1756 01:30:42,200 --> 01:30:43,720 Speaker 1: that sort of sense of community? 1757 01:30:45,600 --> 01:30:47,640 Speaker 24: Well, it stays like today you guys inviting me to 1758 01:30:47,720 --> 01:30:50,160 Speaker 24: do this, to do the show and the other veterans 1759 01:30:50,200 --> 01:30:54,960 Speaker 24: on your show. Veterans often don't get a public sphere 1760 01:30:55,000 --> 01:31:00,320 Speaker 24: to express their feelings and thoughts, and they're not highly 1761 01:31:00,360 --> 01:31:04,840 Speaker 24: recognized like they used to be. So I wanted to 1762 01:31:04,960 --> 01:31:07,960 Speaker 24: let veterans of first responders know that they're not forgotten. 1763 01:31:08,160 --> 01:31:10,200 Speaker 24: And I love them and I want to take care 1764 01:31:10,240 --> 01:31:12,519 Speaker 24: of them. I mean, I spent ten years in the 1765 01:31:12,600 --> 01:31:14,840 Speaker 24: Army and I loved my brothers and sisters, and I 1766 01:31:14,840 --> 01:31:17,840 Speaker 24: would have died for them, and I didn't, thank God, 1767 01:31:17,880 --> 01:31:21,800 Speaker 24: but I would have. And I just want them to 1768 01:31:21,800 --> 01:31:24,920 Speaker 24: not feel forgotten because a lot of our veterans feel 1769 01:31:25,000 --> 01:31:28,160 Speaker 24: I mean, you know, the suicide rates not going down 1770 01:31:28,320 --> 01:31:32,320 Speaker 24: anytime soon, unfortunately, So I want veterans to feel like 1771 01:31:32,360 --> 01:31:34,320 Speaker 24: they have they still have a place in this world 1772 01:31:34,360 --> 01:31:35,439 Speaker 24: even after their service. 1773 01:31:37,479 --> 01:31:38,880 Speaker 2: Joey, we appreciate your time. 1774 01:31:38,920 --> 01:31:42,160 Speaker 1: We appreciate your service, and we appreciate your entire family 1775 01:31:42,360 --> 01:31:44,360 Speaker 1: and what you continue to do for your community and 1776 01:31:44,400 --> 01:31:47,200 Speaker 1: for others in this country who have served and continue 1777 01:31:47,240 --> 01:31:47,519 Speaker 1: to serve. 1778 01:31:47,560 --> 01:31:49,080 Speaker 2: Thanks so much.

More of this special Memorial 1781 01:31:55,880 --> 01:31:58,320 Speaker 1: Day edition of American Sunrise is coming your way after 1782 01:31:58,360 --> 01:31:58,760 Speaker 1: this break. 1783 01:31:58,800 --> 01:32:20,240 Speaker 2: Stick around, all. 1784 01:32:20,280 --> 01:32:22,759 Speaker 5: Right, welcome back to American Sunrise. I'm doctor Gina. 1785 01:32:22,800 --> 01:32:27,679 Speaker 4: Thanks so much for spending time with us this Memorial Day. David, Emily, 1786 01:32:28,120 --> 01:32:32,360 Speaker 4: what are you guys doing, David, I imagine you will 1787 01:32:32,400 --> 01:32:33,800 Speaker 4: be with family, just knowing you. 1788 01:32:35,479 --> 01:32:37,840 Speaker 6: Yeah, one hundred percent knowing you, that's what you'll be doing. 1789 01:32:37,840 --> 01:32:40,840 Speaker 6: But I'll wait for your answer, Gina. Yeah, I'll be 1790 01:32:40,880 --> 01:32:42,599 Speaker 6: with family. And if you think about it, Memorial Day 1791 01:32:42,600 --> 01:32:46,719 Speaker 6: and family makes sense right to value that time with family. 1792 01:32:47,280 --> 01:32:52,280 Speaker 6: It's fleeting, whether it be certain personal circumstances that come up, 1793 01:32:52,360 --> 01:32:54,479 Speaker 6: health issues, but of course on this Memorial Day we 1794 01:32:54,520 --> 01:32:57,759 Speaker 6: think about those that served and the fact that life 1795 01:32:57,800 --> 01:33:00,280 Speaker 6: you never know when it's going to end, and that's 1796 01:33:00,280 --> 01:33:02,920 Speaker 6: why you have to be right with Jesus before you 1797 01:33:03,000 --> 01:33:06,599 Speaker 6: go and die, because that's the most important thing out 1798 01:33:06,600 --> 01:33:10,160 Speaker 6: of everything. Having said that, I'll be over eating on 1799 01:33:10,200 --> 01:33:13,559 Speaker 6: this Memorial Day, that is a family tradition that I 1800 01:33:13,560 --> 01:33:17,720 Speaker 6: typically do because look, I enjoy eating. But I will 1801 01:33:17,760 --> 01:33:20,840 Speaker 6: also say this, one of the things that I really 1802 01:33:20,920 --> 01:33:24,720 Speaker 6: enjoyed doing this last month or so is going to 1803 01:33:24,800 --> 01:33:27,320 Speaker 6: Washington Capital's hockey games. And I'll explain how it relates 1804 01:33:27,320 --> 01:33:30,320 Speaker 6: to Memorial Day and those it served, because in every 1805 01:33:30,400 --> 01:33:34,160 Speaker 6: game eighteen to nineteen thousand people would rise to their 1806 01:33:34,200 --> 01:33:38,880 Speaker 6: feet once they mentioned that there was an either an army, Navy, marine, whatever, 1807 01:33:38,880 --> 01:33:41,479 Speaker 6: a veteran there in the crowd, and that they would 1808 01:33:41,520 --> 01:33:44,240 Speaker 6: salute that person, and nineteen thousand people would rise up 1809 01:33:44,240 --> 01:33:48,200 Speaker 6: and just cheer. And that's just Look, it's hard to 1810 01:33:48,200 --> 01:33:50,720 Speaker 6: get nineteen thousand people in America to all rise in 1811 01:33:50,800 --> 01:33:51,519 Speaker 6: unison together. 1812 01:33:51,640 --> 01:33:54,360 Speaker 3: But the sea moments like that truly special. 1813 01:33:56,000 --> 01:33:59,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, absolutely, you know, it's my thirty fifth wedding Anniverse. 1814 01:34:00,360 --> 01:34:03,320 Speaker 4: I was a virtual child bride, and not really I 1815 01:34:03,360 --> 01:34:07,759 Speaker 4: was in college, but my husband and I picked this weekend, 1816 01:34:07,840 --> 01:34:11,280 Speaker 4: you know, being young and honestly a little dumb and 1817 01:34:11,320 --> 01:34:15,320 Speaker 4: going to a liberal college at the time. We chose 1818 01:34:15,360 --> 01:34:17,679 Speaker 4: it because we knew we would always have Mondays off, 1819 01:34:18,280 --> 01:34:20,840 Speaker 4: which is a terrible reason, you know, but at this 1820 01:34:20,920 --> 01:34:23,240 Speaker 4: point it's much more solemn to us having lived a 1821 01:34:23,240 --> 01:34:26,000 Speaker 4: lot of life, having loved our children the way we have, 1822 01:34:26,360 --> 01:34:30,800 Speaker 4: celebrating with them and reminding them of not just my 1823 01:34:30,920 --> 01:34:35,759 Speaker 4: grandfather bomber pilot from World War Two, but the many 1824 01:34:36,000 --> 01:34:40,960 Speaker 4: who have sacrificed so much, and having lived lives David 1825 01:34:41,040 --> 01:34:46,840 Speaker 4: where you know, you really get to acknowledge and get 1826 01:34:46,840 --> 01:34:49,679 Speaker 4: to live through so much and see what freedom really 1827 01:34:49,800 --> 01:34:53,200 Speaker 4: means at each stage of life, and being so thankful 1828 01:34:53,280 --> 01:34:55,920 Speaker 4: for our families.
