You want to be a 3 00:00:06,400 --> 00:00:11,680 Speaker 1: part of the program. Senator John Kennedy, great State of Louisiana. 4 00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,919 Speaker 1: Great guy, Great senator, really represents his state well. Me 5 00:00:17,120 --> 00:00:20,520 Speaker 1: to comment about whether we want to kind of admit 6 00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:23,320 Speaker 1: it or not. There is a war going on with 7 00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:26,400 Speaker 1: us in Russia. Here's what he said. This is a war, 8 00:00:27,280 --> 00:00:30,320 Speaker 1: and in a war, when you have your enemy down, 9 00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:34,640 Speaker 1: you have to choke him to death. I'm sorry, but 10 00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:39,720 Speaker 1: that's what wars are about. But we need to win 11 00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:42,760 Speaker 1: this war. We need to win it militarily, we need 12 00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:46,159 Speaker 1: to win it economically. I don't think we have to 13 00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:49,680 Speaker 1: do something foolish to achieve either of those ends. But 14 00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:52,239 Speaker 1: we need to do what's best for the world, the 15 00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:56,360 Speaker 1: American people, and for the people of Ukraine. And allowing 16 00:00:56,720 --> 00:01:01,000 Speaker 1: Pewton to just continue to get away doing whatever he 17 00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:04,039 Speaker 1: wants to do without calling this hand is not going 18 00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:07,240 Speaker 1: to help us win the war on either front. I'm 19 00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:09,360 Speaker 1: gonna say it again. I know the stuff makes the 20 00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:14,560 Speaker 1: President nervous, but you know, he just needs to stop 21 00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:19,640 Speaker 1: thinking about his wishman and girl backbones, all right, Senator 22 00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:23,240 Speaker 1: John Kennedy joins us now from the great state of Louisiana. Sir, 23 00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:25,400 Speaker 1: great to have you on the on the program as always, 24 00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:27,880 Speaker 1: thank you for being with us. Thank you, Sean, thanks 25 00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:30,399 Speaker 1: for having me. You know two things I take out 26 00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:33,319 Speaker 1: of what you just said here makes absolutely no sense. 27 00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:39,520 Speaker 1: The administration's position, well, we can provide um javelins and stingers, 28 00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:44,839 Speaker 1: and finally they're allowing anti aircraft defense systems and anti 29 00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:49,600 Speaker 1: missile defense systems. Now javelins and stingers can be used offensively. 30 00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:53,040 Speaker 1: Their argument is that, well, if Joe Biden didn't veto 31 00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:56,560 Speaker 1: the MiGs from Poland that they offered, uh, those those 32 00:01:56,600 --> 00:02:00,360 Speaker 1: would be offensive weapons. You can use the javelin offense, lee, 33 00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:03,520 Speaker 1: you can use a stinger missile offensively. You don't have 34 00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:05,720 Speaker 1: to be under an attack. You can have an insurgency 35 00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:08,800 Speaker 1: attack using those weapons. So the logic doesn't hold up, 36 00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:12,200 Speaker 1: does it. No, it doesn't. And I've watched the president 37 00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:15,320 Speaker 1: as we all have carefully. It's almost as I President 38 00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:19,080 Speaker 1: Biden is afraid that Ukraine might win. I mean, the 39 00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:24,400 Speaker 1: President's been president for fourteen months. After fourteen months, nothing 40 00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:28,720 Speaker 1: is built, nothing is back, and nothing's better. And I 41 00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:32,880 Speaker 1: think A perfect example is his response to the Russian invasion. 42 00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:35,440 Speaker 1: The President has said all the right things. I will 43 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:37,880 Speaker 1: give him that, and he's done an okay job of 44 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:41,720 Speaker 1: holding our allies together. But we can't win this war. 45 00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:47,320 Speaker 1: And we are in a war with Russia either military 46 00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:52,639 Speaker 1: or militarily or economically unless we are bold. Now a 47 00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:55,919 Speaker 1: president does. Lynsky is the new leader of the free world. 48 00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:59,919 Speaker 1: That's clear. He's an icon. He's an icon of gut 49 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:03,720 Speaker 1: and what he has asked for surface to air missiles, 50 00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:08,040 Speaker 1: and he's asked for planes, not American planes, not American troops, 51 00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:11,400 Speaker 1: not American missiles, from our allies who have them, the 52 00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:13,880 Speaker 1: more to share them. And I don't understand why President 53 00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:17,679 Speaker 1: Biden will might give the okay. And his response is 54 00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:20,800 Speaker 1: always I'll get back to you and in three to 55 00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:24,760 Speaker 1: five business days. The President Biden didn't want to stop 56 00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:28,480 Speaker 1: buying Russian oil. The Congress had the guilt him into that. 57 00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:33,840 Speaker 1: He did, to his credit, he did ship not serviced 58 00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:36,880 Speaker 1: air missiles, but he shipped some additional arms yesterday, I 59 00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:41,200 Speaker 1: think to Ukraine. But Ukraine was asking for their jehan 60 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:45,080 Speaker 1: for three weeks ago. I mean, why weren't they already there? 61 00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:47,880 Speaker 1: The war has been going on for twenty weeks. And 62 00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:52,400 Speaker 1: I know I'm not saying President Biden John doesn't want 63 00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:54,720 Speaker 1: what's best for the world and American I'm not saying 64 00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:58,560 Speaker 1: that at all. But sometimes I think it's as if 65 00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:04,040 Speaker 1: he's afraid Ukraine. My witness, Ukraine, Ukraine is holding it's 66 00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 1: all on the ground. They're just killed in the air. 67 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:09,720 Speaker 1: We need to help him in the air. You know, 68 00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:11,800 Speaker 1: it makes so much sense, But I want to hone 69 00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:15,320 Speaker 1: in on the keyword that you keep using. He's afraid, fearful, 70 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:19,240 Speaker 1: all of which seems to be true. And we can't 71 00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:22,400 Speaker 1: get into a shooting war with Vladimir Putin. This is 72 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:26,039 Speaker 1: going to be World War three. It seems like anytime 73 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:29,960 Speaker 1: Vladimir drops a hint that he might go nuclear, or 74 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:33,680 Speaker 1: a hint that you know, this could escalate, it seems like, 75 00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:36,640 Speaker 1: you know, Joe kind of bubbles and phizzics like alka 76 00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:40,000 Speaker 1: seltzer and water and just you know, fearfully retreats to 77 00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:42,800 Speaker 1: know we we we can't do anymore. We're gonna make 78 00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:45,680 Speaker 1: him mad. Sort of like when the press says, mister 79 00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:49,000 Speaker 1: President can ask you a question, his answer often is 80 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:52,400 Speaker 1: I'd love to answer, but I get in trouble when 81 00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:54,640 Speaker 1: I get when by my staff, they yell at me 82 00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:57,440 Speaker 1: and everything, and I'm like, Okay, you're the freaking president 83 00:04:57,440 --> 00:04:59,440 Speaker 1: of the United States. How about you tell your staff 84 00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:03,159 Speaker 1: what you're going to do and tell them to shut up. Well, 85 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:06,640 Speaker 1: there's not the way you say, Sean a man. If 86 00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:08,560 Speaker 1: you look at this, step back and look at it, 87 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:11,839 Speaker 1: it's almost as if President Biden and the people around 88 00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:16,880 Speaker 1: them think they're engaged in the sport of Olympic fencing 89 00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:21,520 Speaker 1: or something. Peter's not Peters a street fighter. He's a thug. 90 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:25,480 Speaker 1: He knows he's in a night fight. Now. I don't 91 00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:28,960 Speaker 1: want to start war warpering. Nobody wants to start war warpering. 92 00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:34,480 Speaker 1: I'm not suggisting we send send them troops, our American 93 00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:37,839 Speaker 1: plaints or our American missiles. I'm not I'm not suggesting that. 94 00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:42,359 Speaker 1: But there are things we can do to help Ukraine, 95 00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:47,520 Speaker 1: and yes it's a headlistic possibility. Help Ukraine win this more. 96 00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:51,040 Speaker 1: There's more we could do economically. By the way, what 97 00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:53,640 Speaker 1: let me interrupt on this one front center. I don't 98 00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:57,200 Speaker 1: want to take your time, but you said economically, You're right. 99 00:05:57,279 --> 00:06:01,400 Speaker 1: He was shamed into stopping the importation of Russian oil. 100 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:05,039 Speaker 1: You know, people are saying, well, the Keystone XL pipeline 101 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:08,159 Speaker 1: wouldn't lower energy prices. Well, if he didn't give up 102 00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:12,640 Speaker 1: energy independence, and he would have finished the Keystone XL pipeline. 103 00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:15,800 Speaker 1: According to the premier in Alberta, we'd be getting nine 104 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:19,160 Speaker 1: hundred thousand barrels of oil through that pipeline into the 105 00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:24,359 Speaker 1: US Canadian oil every single solitary day, and it would 106 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:26,960 Speaker 1: often go to states like your state or Texas to 107 00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:29,719 Speaker 1: be refined, and we would be paying a lot less 108 00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:32,360 Speaker 1: for gasoline. Although people are trying to lie and make 109 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:35,000 Speaker 1: the case the other way. But anyway, I digress. You 110 00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:38,200 Speaker 1: go ahead, sir, No, you make good points. I mean, 111 00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:42,480 Speaker 1: most present Biden's sanctions have hurt Russia, but they haven't 112 00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:45,520 Speaker 1: put Russia on its niece. I mean, Russian inflation right 113 00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:49,760 Speaker 1: now is less of an American inflation. The rouple is devalued, 114 00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:52,880 Speaker 1: but only by about twenty percent. You're not going to 115 00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:56,880 Speaker 1: beat economically unless I cut off his cash flow. And 116 00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 1: you can't cut off this cash flow unless you stop buying. 117 00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:03,839 Speaker 1: Is all the dead and our European princes have gotten 118 00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:06,400 Speaker 1: themselvel in a position where they have to and When 119 00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:08,719 Speaker 1: we say, look, would you stop buying the old only gass, 120 00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:10,800 Speaker 1: they say, hey, we gotta have them on a gas 121 00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:13,520 Speaker 1: where we're gonna get it. Well, the ob obvious as 122 00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 1: from the United States of America, There's just one problem. 123 00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:21,760 Speaker 1: The president's energy policy is bowed to the Wokers, the 124 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:26,240 Speaker 1: Woker Darlings, and his party. The President's energy Wait a minute, 125 00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:32,240 Speaker 1: you call the Woker darlings. They are, I know they are, 126 00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:34,160 Speaker 1: but I mean the way you put it as hilarious, 127 00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:39,480 Speaker 1: well you you you you can I can tell you 128 00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:42,960 Speaker 1: how you can identify the Woker darkness. They hate Thomas Jeffin, 129 00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:46,520 Speaker 1: they hate George Washington, they hate doctor Zeus, and they 130 00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:50,800 Speaker 1: hate mister Potato. They're easy, and they hate you, and 131 00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:55,600 Speaker 1: they hate me Ad. They hate both of us. A 132 00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:58,240 Speaker 1: man can't be too careful in the choice of resuming. 133 00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:03,240 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm proud of it so much. Which Biden 134 00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:07,040 Speaker 1: has adopted is wind, solar, and pixie does. They hate 135 00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:11,160 Speaker 1: fossil fuel and until President Biden gets his boot off 136 00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:15,040 Speaker 1: the throat of the oilman gas industry, but adopts an 137 00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:18,360 Speaker 1: all of the above energy policy, which does include wind 138 00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:22,560 Speaker 1: and solar, but also includes nuclear and oilmon gas and 139 00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:26,560 Speaker 1: anous the American producer to do its thing so we 140 00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:30,040 Speaker 1: can sell the excess to our friends in Europe. Then 141 00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:33,120 Speaker 1: you're not going to put Putin on his knees economically, 142 00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:37,640 Speaker 1: and everybody knows that. You see, this is the big mistake. 143 00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:43,000 Speaker 1: Though Joe Biden inherited Donald Trump's energy independence when he 144 00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:47,000 Speaker 1: became president, we were a net exporter of energy as 145 00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:51,440 Speaker 1: a country, and Joe capitulating to the wokers, as you 146 00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:56,280 Speaker 1: call them. But when he capitulated to the climate alarmist, 147 00:08:56,440 --> 00:09:00,840 Speaker 1: you know, they're called woker darlings, woker darlings. But when 148 00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:06,760 Speaker 1: he when he capitulated to the walker darlings, he then 149 00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:12,080 Speaker 1: artificially reduced the supply of energy in the world, supplying 150 00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:15,840 Speaker 1: demand criss cross, and that dictates the price. But he 151 00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:19,640 Speaker 1: did something even more sinister than that, is, as a 152 00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:22,720 Speaker 1: net exporter, we could now be helping our Western European 153 00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:26,920 Speaker 1: and NATO allies with their energy needs. And Joe Biden 154 00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:31,120 Speaker 1: basically pushed our allies right into the arms of Vladimir Putin, 155 00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:33,600 Speaker 1: the very thing that Donald Trump warned about when he 156 00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:36,240 Speaker 1: was scolding the head of NATO in twenty eighteen, and 157 00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:38,920 Speaker 1: a beatdown that I've been playing on TV and on 158 00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:43,720 Speaker 1: this radio program. You've pretty much nailed it. I mean, well, 159 00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:47,280 Speaker 1: when President Baden took over, the miracle was the energy independent. 160 00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:49,600 Speaker 1: President Baden said, we're going to give up our energy 161 00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:52,839 Speaker 1: independence and here's our new policy we're going to do. 162 00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:56,240 Speaker 1: Instead of producing our home, we're going about all from 163 00:09:56,280 --> 00:10:00,800 Speaker 1: foreign country that hate us. So those foreign countries like 164 00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:05,360 Speaker 1: Dennis Wetland, like Saudi review, we'll have more money to 165 00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:09,080 Speaker 1: buy weapons to try to kill us, and include Russian 166 00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:12,680 Speaker 1: that number. We'd still be by buying Russian oil unless 167 00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:16,480 Speaker 1: the United States Congress had forced the president's hand. Had 168 00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:18,840 Speaker 1: he not said we're going to stop buying all from 169 00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:22,200 Speaker 1: from Houston, we would have passed a bill voted voted 170 00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:26,719 Speaker 1: for by Democrats, well some Democrats and all our Republicans 171 00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:29,800 Speaker 1: that and then said, okay, mister President Vito, and if you, 172 00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:32,400 Speaker 1: if you will, think you have the guts. So he 173 00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:34,760 Speaker 1: saw it coming and he got ahead of the prey. 174 00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:37,760 Speaker 1: Now it doesn't have given me joy to have to 175 00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:42,400 Speaker 1: say that, Sean, but the president is leaving them from behind. Okay. 176 00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:44,880 Speaker 1: And as I said the other day, I don't like 177 00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:49,320 Speaker 1: the circumstances we find out ourselves in. The President is 178 00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:51,680 Speaker 1: nervous about it, but he's got to get rid of 179 00:10:51,720 --> 00:10:55,360 Speaker 1: his wish bone and uh and go back home. We 180 00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:58,120 Speaker 1: can win this thing, all right, quick break right back, 181 00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 1: and then your calls at the bottom of the half 182 00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:02,439 Speaker 1: our eight hundred nine four one, Sean, if you want 183 00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:04,280 Speaker 1: to be a part of the program, more with Senator 184 00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:10,760 Speaker 1: John Kennedy of Louisiana on the other side as we continue, 185 00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:15,320 Speaker 1: I would continue with Louisiana. Senator John Kennedy's with us. 186 00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:17,680 Speaker 1: Your calls coming up. Eight hundred nine four one, Shawn 187 00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:20,240 Speaker 1: at the bottom of a half hour, Senator, did you 188 00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:23,040 Speaker 1: ever think at our lifetime that we have the number 189 00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:27,240 Speaker 1: one state sponsor of terror? Iran? And Russia in the 190 00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:30,360 Speaker 1: middle of all of this is brokering a deal between 191 00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:33,920 Speaker 1: the US and Iran in part that we could import 192 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:37,240 Speaker 1: oil from Iran or kiss the ass and send an 193 00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:41,200 Speaker 1: emissary on behalf of Joe Biden to Venezuela to talk 194 00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:45,200 Speaker 1: to that murdering dictating thug Madura. Yesterday in the House 195 00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:50,319 Speaker 1: of Representatives, Democrats blocked an energy independence bill. How unconsionable 196 00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:55,600 Speaker 1: is that? Knowing how how important that energy independence is 197 00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:58,880 Speaker 1: to our national security? It would also make a big 198 00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:02,440 Speaker 1: dent in the forty year high of inflation we have that, 199 00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:07,000 Speaker 1: I argued. Joe Biden caused that too. Well, I think 200 00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:10,200 Speaker 1: there's gonna President Biden's going to announce the deal next week. 201 00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:14,000 Speaker 1: I think he's reaching an agreement with Russia, who was 202 00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:17,920 Speaker 1: brokering the deal, and Iran, and I think it's going 203 00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:20,640 Speaker 1: to be the new agreement. It's going to be worse 204 00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:24,600 Speaker 1: than the first agreement. There's certainly the appearance that the 205 00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:28,120 Speaker 1: President has given in just in order to get Ronny 206 00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:32,200 Speaker 1: in oil because he won't let them American producers produce 207 00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:35,640 Speaker 1: their own. And I don't want to prejudge it. I 208 00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:37,920 Speaker 1: haven't seen the deal, but I've heard about it, and 209 00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:41,520 Speaker 1: I think it's uh. I think it's uncomfortable. Well, I 210 00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:43,800 Speaker 1: don't think he's going to go to go through Congress either. 211 00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:46,959 Speaker 1: You know. The idea of my understanding is, and it's 212 00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:50,200 Speaker 1: getting worse almost by the day. My understanding is it 213 00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:54,079 Speaker 1: would result in tens of billions of dollars of sanctioned 214 00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:57,440 Speaker 1: money being held back from the Iranian molas that that 215 00:12:57,520 --> 00:13:02,600 Speaker 1: will be handed over. According to other sources, it would 216 00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:06,959 Speaker 1: remove Iran's revolutionary Guard from the terror list. We'd also 217 00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:10,559 Speaker 1: then be importing oil from the number one state sponsor terror, 218 00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:13,560 Speaker 1: making them rich so they can fight their proxy wars 219 00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:18,400 Speaker 1: and commit acts of terror. Jensaki's answers was still a negotiation. 220 00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:22,520 Speaker 1: There's another report that the agreement would allow Russia to 221 00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:25,800 Speaker 1: cash in on a ten billion dollar contract building nuclear 222 00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:28,440 Speaker 1: sites for the Iranians. You know you can't make this 223 00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:32,280 Speaker 1: Adam shiff up. If you don't mind my saying, Senator Kennedy, 224 00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:36,760 Speaker 1: I think you're right, Sean. I hope you're wrong. Well, 225 00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:39,280 Speaker 1: I think you're right. That's what I'm hearing too. And 226 00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:42,920 Speaker 1: I mean, how is it possible because when now dealing, 227 00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:46,920 Speaker 1: if you're a hostile to the United States, you get 228 00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:50,720 Speaker 1: Joe Biden's deals. How come our allies look even little 229 00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:55,720 Speaker 1: justin I'd take Canadian oil over Venezuelan or Iranian oil 230 00:13:55,880 --> 00:14:00,440 Speaker 1: or Opec oil any day. I would do. And it 231 00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:04,280 Speaker 1: is a mystery to me why President Biden persists and 232 00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:09,160 Speaker 1: giving billions of dollars to countries that has those countries 233 00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:11,800 Speaker 1: ought to be able to hate us for free. But 234 00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:14,679 Speaker 1: that's why the American people, I think, are looking at 235 00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:17,240 Speaker 1: all this nonsense and they're saying to them. So do 236 00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:20,680 Speaker 1: you know what Republicans aren't profit but the other side 237 00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:25,040 Speaker 1: of crazy. Senator, Uh, we loved you the job that 238 00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:27,720 Speaker 1: you do.

I'm writing it down all right, 242 00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:45,320 Speaker 1: Senator Kennedy.

These sacrifices, you know what, 253 00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:22,040 Speaker 1: they pay the ultimate price. They come back with debilitating injuries, 254 00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:26,000 Speaker 1: their lives totally changed for the worst. The families that 255 00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:29,640 Speaker 1: lose loved ones. It's brutal on them, and they've done 256 00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:31,760 Speaker 1: everything that we could ever ask of them. And we're 257 00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:35,640 Speaker 1: talking about gold star fallen first responder families with young kids, 258 00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:41,200 Speaker 1: our nation's most catastrophically injured first responders vets are homeless 259 00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:43,880 Speaker 1: service members. They all need your help. And that's the 260 00:15:43,880 --> 00:15:47,640 Speaker 1: where the Tunnel to Towers Foundation comes in now some families. 261 00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:50,760 Speaker 1: For some of them, the Foundation gives them the comfort 262 00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:53,560 Speaker 1: of knowing they can stay in the home where or 263 00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:56,600 Speaker 1: they made memories with their fallen loved ones. For other families, 264 00:15:57,000 --> 00:16:00,320 Speaker 1: the Foundation enables new memories to be cherished forever in 265 00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:04,120 Speaker 1: a new place.

I contend if you look 279 00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:22,240 Speaker 1: at the policies, especially economic policies, energy policies of the 280 00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:28,159 Speaker 1: Biden administration, and they're them clinging to their new cult 281 00:17:28,320 --> 00:17:35,400 Speaker 1: religion of climate alarmism and New Green Deal, radical socialism 282 00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:39,560 Speaker 1: that has little to nothing to do with the environment, 283 00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:44,400 Speaker 1: has everything to do with, you know, redistributed redistribution of wealth, etc. 284 00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:48,239 Speaker 1: I mean, it's pretty unbelievable if we didn't put if 285 00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:52,400 Speaker 1: Vladimir Putin didn't have Joe Biden giving up energy independence 286 00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:55,560 Speaker 1: and didn't give up us being an exporter of energy 287 00:17:56,080 --> 00:17:59,880 Speaker 1: and pushing our allies into the arms of Putin. Find 288 00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:02,520 Speaker 1: angelely because even to this day, even though we're not 289 00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:05,879 Speaker 1: importing oil because Joe got shamed out of doing it, 290 00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:10,560 Speaker 1: our Western, European and NATO allies are and every day 291 00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:14,040 Speaker 1: Vladimir Putin is getting rich as hell because of the 292 00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:18,159 Speaker 1: dependency that was created because it didn't listen to Trump. 293 00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:22,399 Speaker 1: In twenty seventeen, eighteen and nineteen when he warned that 294 00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:26,879 Speaker 1: that Putin would eventually blackmail them and empower him and 295 00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:31,080 Speaker 1: bolden him. It all turned out to be true. Nobody 296 00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:33,120 Speaker 1: seems to want to put the blame where it belongs. 297 00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:35,200 Speaker 1: It's like, we're the only ones that have figured this 298 00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:39,119 Speaker 1: out and it's not that complicated. And now we have 299 00:18:39,359 --> 00:18:42,960 Speaker 1: compromised our own national security. You know, now we're talking 300 00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:47,240 Speaker 1: to Venezuela begging OPEC and trying to make a sick 301 00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:50,880 Speaker 1: deal brokeer it by the Russians with Iran. You can't 302 00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:54,480 Speaker 1: be any dumber than Joe Biden on this. And but 303 00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:58,640 Speaker 1: according to Nancy Pelosi, Joe has done a masterful job 304 00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:02,000 Speaker 1: handling Ukraine. Let me back up for a second and 305 00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:07,320 Speaker 1: just say President Biden has done a masterful job in 306 00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:14,080 Speaker 1: managing this situation in a way that is collaborative, not 307 00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:20,560 Speaker 1: condescending or dictating, but collaborative. The unity of the of 308 00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:28,240 Speaker 1: the not only the G seven, but the nature alliance 309 00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:35,000 Speaker 1: has been remarkable. To behold, they are all unified with 310 00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:39,960 Speaker 1: the how we go forward, and how they are unified 311 00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:42,680 Speaker 1: on how we go forward is that we are not 312 00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:52,000 Speaker 1: going in to Ukraine. It is not an article five situation. Oh, 313 00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:55,840 Speaker 1: maybe she could educate our vice president that clearly doesn't 314 00:19:55,920 --> 00:20:00,840 Speaker 1: know because she made the same misstatement place that this 315 00:20:01,080 --> 00:20:03,520 Speaker 1: was about the NATO alliance. Ukraine is not a part 316 00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:07,240 Speaker 1: of NATO. If you look at approval ratings, let's see, 317 00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:11,240 Speaker 1: Vladimir Putin has an eighty nine percent disapproval rating or 318 00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:14,080 Speaker 1: one point seven percent approval rating according to our friend 319 00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:18,520 Speaker 1: Robert Kahalia Trafalgar. Zelenski, on the other hand, has a 320 00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:21,840 Speaker 1: seventy eight point two percent approval rating five point eight 321 00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:26,080 Speaker 1: percent disapproval rating. Who's a better leader, Joe Biden or 322 00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:31,840 Speaker 1: President Zelenski? Fifty four percent say Zelenski, seventeen percent say 323 00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:35,040 Speaker 1: Joe Biden, and we go on from there. I mean, 324 00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:38,719 Speaker 1: I don't think you can screw this up any more 325 00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:43,359 Speaker 1: than Joe has screwed this up. Let's say hello to 326 00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:46,760 Speaker 1: Courtney's in the great state of Alabama. What's going on, Courtneys? 327 00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:51,280 Speaker 1: How sweet home Alabama. We're doing good down here, minus 328 00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:55,120 Speaker 1: these gas prices. I'll tell you that. Yeah, it's kelling well, 329 00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:57,480 Speaker 1: welcome to New York City, because we've been paying those 330 00:20:57,560 --> 00:20:59,520 Speaker 1: prices for a long time, and now we're even paying 331 00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:03,399 Speaker 1: all out more it's getting crazy out there. Well, my 332 00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:06,640 Speaker 1: question I have for you today is I've got kind 333 00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:11,119 Speaker 1: of a two part question, one being this eighty million 334 00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:15,480 Speaker 1: dollar build that but just signed to send more money 335 00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:18,440 Speaker 1: to Ukraine. We've spent I think, or we've sent I 336 00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:20,919 Speaker 1: think this week a loan over a billion dollars to them. 337 00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:24,280 Speaker 1: No telling what we've sent since this worst started. One, 338 00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:28,000 Speaker 1: where is that money coming from when we're already in trillion? 339 00:21:28,080 --> 00:21:29,560 Speaker 1: Well let me let me give you the number so 340 00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:31,600 Speaker 1: we know what we're talking about. So thirteen billion was 341 00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:33,879 Speaker 1: the total, but then originally it was only two hundred 342 00:21:33,880 --> 00:21:38,280 Speaker 1: million for military aid. That got up to a billion yesterday. 343 00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:41,720 Speaker 1: So one billion out of the thirteen billion only goes 344 00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:45,800 Speaker 1: towards the military aid. And while humanitarian aid is nice, 345 00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:49,800 Speaker 1: what Zolinski needs right now is everything we've talked about, 346 00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:55,120 Speaker 1: Javelin stingers, anti aircraft, anti missile defense systems, more drones, 347 00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:58,800 Speaker 1: and yeah, Joe should not have vetoed the fighter jets 348 00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:02,320 Speaker 1: that Poland was going to give of Ukraine. But at 349 00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:06,919 Speaker 1: what point do we stop? Because what kind of worries 350 00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:09,160 Speaker 1: me is at what point is Putin going to look 351 00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:12,200 Speaker 1: at the United States and say, hey, you guys, continue 352 00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:15,399 Speaker 1: and continue to get involved even though we don't have 353 00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:20,720 Speaker 1: boots on the ground yet, we're still financially for Ukraine, 354 00:22:20,720 --> 00:22:22,520 Speaker 1: and it wasn't do you want him know what? My 355 00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:25,840 Speaker 1: answer is, they stopped Courtney. I don't want you to 356 00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:28,439 Speaker 1: take this the wrong way. And this is the problem 357 00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:32,479 Speaker 1: with Joe Biden and the Democrats is that they're they're wondering, 358 00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:36,080 Speaker 1: we're gonna get Vladimir mad and everything if we if 359 00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:39,080 Speaker 1: we were ready given javelins and stingers, and he's mad 360 00:22:39,119 --> 00:22:41,800 Speaker 1: at us for that, and now there's anti aircraft and 361 00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:45,080 Speaker 1: anti missile defense systems and drones out there, and if 362 00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:47,880 Speaker 1: we give them MiGs, he's probably gonna get really, really 363 00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:50,760 Speaker 1: mad at us. I don't give a damn what Vladimir 364 00:22:50,800 --> 00:22:53,520 Speaker 1: Putin thinks. He's the guy that should worry about what 365 00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:57,080 Speaker 1: we're gonna do. It shouldn't be the opposite that And 366 00:22:57,520 --> 00:23:01,040 Speaker 1: you really think he'd be to say that that we 367 00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:04,200 Speaker 1: don't really have a strong president right now. No, we don't. 368 00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:06,800 Speaker 1: That's a probably, that's that. And he's gonna get away 369 00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:08,840 Speaker 1: with whatever he can get away with because he knows 370 00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:11,280 Speaker 1: no one's going to stop him. Listen. I think one 371 00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:13,760 Speaker 1: of the reasons Joe is doing anything at all is 372 00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:18,040 Speaker 1: because the public is demanding it, and the public is 373 00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:22,840 Speaker 1: very adamant. Also, look in the last sixty years, we've 374 00:23:22,920 --> 00:23:25,440 Speaker 1: learned a lot. We've learned what works, we've learned what 375 00:23:25,560 --> 00:23:30,200 Speaker 1: doesn't work. We've learned that protracted wars gung ho politicians 376 00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:32,720 Speaker 1: that I can't stand that lie to us all the time. 377 00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:35,520 Speaker 1: They're all, exactly, we're gonna go to war, and they 378 00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:38,359 Speaker 1: beat the war drums and they don't fight wars to 379 00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:43,000 Speaker 1: win wars, and then they politicize the war. And then 380 00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:46,880 Speaker 1: after x thousands of Americans are dead and x thousands 381 00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:53,119 Speaker 1: of Americans coming back without limbs and wars even they 382 00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:55,880 Speaker 1: say things like never mind, and then they pull out 383 00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:58,680 Speaker 1: like they did in Afghanistan. We can't fight that war anymore. 384 00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:04,000 Speaker 1: But but I do believe as the beacon of light 385 00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:07,879 Speaker 1: for the world, for the cause of freedom, it is 386 00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:11,480 Speaker 1: in the world's best interests. Reagan showed us the way 387 00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:15,280 Speaker 1: Trump showed us the way Reagan showed us by arming 388 00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:18,640 Speaker 1: the mujah Haddeen and they were fighting against the former 389 00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:22,560 Speaker 1: Soviet Union. They were nuclear power. Then Reagan helped the 390 00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:28,359 Speaker 1: freedom fighting contras and battling back against the Sandinistas. We 391 00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:32,120 Speaker 1: saw that Donald Trump just bomb the living hell out 392 00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:36,399 Speaker 1: of the caliphate that was created under Obama and Biden. 393 00:24:37,320 --> 00:24:40,240 Speaker 1: We saw him take out Solomoni, you know, the number 394 00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:44,040 Speaker 1: one the world's worst terrorists, fomenter of terror in the world. 395 00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:47,399 Speaker 1: We saw him take out Baghdaddy and associates, and we 396 00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:49,760 Speaker 1: saw him take out the al Qaeda leader in Yemen. 397 00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:54,680 Speaker 1: He just acted, and when he acted, he acted with ferocious, 398 00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:59,560 Speaker 1: ferocious amount of force to win and there were no 399 00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:03,880 Speaker 1: const sequences. The world should fear us. I don't fear 400 00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:08,720 Speaker 1: Vladimir Putin? Is he capable of the worst? History shows us. Yes, 401 00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:12,240 Speaker 1: evil on a mass scale can take place in the world, 402 00:25:12,840 --> 00:25:17,639 Speaker 1: but that cannot govern how we act defensively. Does that 403 00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:22,399 Speaker 1: make sense? It does? It does. My thing that I 404 00:25:22,600 --> 00:25:25,560 Speaker 1: think about, though, is I don't know if the world 405 00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:29,560 Speaker 1: fears us anymore. When we've had the last two years 406 00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:32,280 Speaker 1: of COVID and all of the things that we've done 407 00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:35,520 Speaker 1: internally to hurt one another, segregate, to separate each other, 408 00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:40,119 Speaker 1: tear burden cities down. You've got the border crisis that 409 00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:44,600 Speaker 1: is still not being taken care of, opioid crisis still 410 00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:47,879 Speaker 1: an issue that nobody talks about a lot anymore. I mean, 411 00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:50,840 Speaker 1: how can you fear a country that has so many 412 00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:53,680 Speaker 1: internal problems, but yet we want to constantly try to 413 00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:58,560 Speaker 1: externally fix the world. Listen, you make a good point, 414 00:25:58,800 --> 00:26:03,359 Speaker 1: but America first should be America first, and we have to. 415 00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:05,639 Speaker 1: You know, there are people that are making arguments to me, 416 00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:09,360 Speaker 1: why are we spending all this money? Because it's ultimately 417 00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:13,320 Speaker 1: probably in our best national security interest to do so. 418 00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:16,560 Speaker 1: And people might ask why, Well, if if Putin was 419 00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:19,760 Speaker 1: able to easily take Ukraine and it's not been as 420 00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:22,560 Speaker 1: easy as he thought, what's going to prevent him from 421 00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:25,640 Speaker 1: going after NATO countries? You know, then what is America 422 00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:29,000 Speaker 1: gonna do? And I get that one hundred percent. But 423 00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:32,119 Speaker 1: to me, the bigger issue that we have had, even 424 00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:35,920 Speaker 1: well before this war started with Ukraine and Russia, is 425 00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:39,200 Speaker 1: our own open borders. We're allowing terrorists to come in 426 00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:42,040 Speaker 1: left and right, and nobody's doing anything about it. Nobody 427 00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:45,840 Speaker 1: cared about our border until all of a sudden, Oh, 428 00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:50,879 Speaker 1: Ukraine's border. We gotta help Ukraine. I want you're preaching 429 00:26:50,960 --> 00:26:54,240 Speaker 1: to the choir. You're not getting any disagreement from me here. 430 00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:58,359 Speaker 1: I cannot say it any more strongly than you're saying it. 431 00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:02,200 Speaker 1: It is total, completely hypocrisy. You know, we now have 432 00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:09,359 Speaker 1: a political party that is lawless and they only enforce 433 00:27:09,440 --> 00:27:12,359 Speaker 1: the laws that they agree with. And there's a double 434 00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:16,000 Speaker 1: standard on our justice system. If you're a jaywalking Republican, 435 00:27:16,080 --> 00:27:18,880 Speaker 1: you get ten years in jail, you spend on the sidewalk. 436 00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:21,800 Speaker 1: As a Republican, you spend twenty years in jail. If 437 00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:26,199 Speaker 1: you're a corrupt Democrat like Hunter Biden and you make 438 00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:30,400 Speaker 1: him millions from enemy countries without any experience, that's called 439 00:27:30,440 --> 00:27:34,600 Speaker 1: pay to play. To influence the vice president father, nothing 440 00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:37,880 Speaker 1: happens to you. That's a sad state of affairs, right, 441 00:27:38,840 --> 00:27:43,400 Speaker 1: it really is. It's mind boggling to see how many 442 00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:47,080 Speaker 1: things they don't care about that they should care about 443 00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:49,120 Speaker 1: and spend money where we need to spend the money. 444 00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:54,399 Speaker 1: But yet we make up these stupid left wing things 445 00:27:55,440 --> 00:27:57,560 Speaker 1: to send people to prison for that don't deserve to 446 00:27:57,600 --> 00:28:01,480 Speaker 1: go to prison or I don't know. We focus our 447 00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:04,240 Speaker 1: time and our money on making the planet a better 448 00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:07,119 Speaker 1: place and save it. Let me make it very simple 449 00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:10,199 Speaker 1: for your courtney. If you're saying we're being a stupid country, 450 00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:14,400 Speaker 1: I agree. So I think that these leaders. Look, Joe 451 00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:18,040 Speaker 1: Biden is weak, frail, and a cognitive mess. When I 452 00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:23,200 Speaker 1: listen to Kamala Harris, I cringe. She is clearly not 453 00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:26,080 Speaker 1: up to the job of being a vice president. Nancy 454 00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:29,880 Speaker 1: Pelosi third in line for the presidency, she has her 455 00:28:29,920 --> 00:28:33,960 Speaker 1: own cognitive issues. This is a very weak in country 456 00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:36,840 Speaker 1: at this moment, and the world's bad actors are taking 457 00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:39,240 Speaker 1: full advantage of it. But I gotta run, I gotta 458 00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:41,240 Speaker 1: get other calls. And thank you so much, appreciate you 459 00:28:41,320 --> 00:28:44,400 Speaker 1: being with us. You're not wrong, all right, quick break 460 00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:46,040 Speaker 1: right back. We'll get to more of your calls. Eight 461 00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:47,840 Speaker 1: hundred nine for one, Sean, you want to be a 462 00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:50,000 Speaker 1: part of the program. New Gingrich at the top of 463 00:28:50,040 --> 00:28:53,480 Speaker 1: the hour will get his take on the happenings Putin's 464 00:28:53,520 --> 00:28:56,760 Speaker 1: invasion of Ukraine, the economy, oil, energy, and much more. 465 00:28:57,120 --> 00:29:05,640 Speaker 1: As we continue now reaching over six hundred and seventy 466 00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:10,160 Speaker 1: five stations across this great nation. We'll do the media's 467 00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:12,120 Speaker 1: job and we'll give you information you're not going to 468 00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:28,960 Speaker 1: get anywhere else. This is the Sean Hannity Show. Let's 469 00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:31,640 Speaker 1: say hi to Charles. He's in North Carolina today. Charles, 470 00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:35,479 Speaker 1: how are you glad you called sir, Hey, Sean, how 471 00:29:35,520 --> 00:29:37,160 Speaker 1: are you? And thank you for taking my call. It's 472 00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:39,560 Speaker 1: an honor to to speak with you. Hey, the honor 473 00:29:39,600 --> 00:29:41,960 Speaker 1: is all mine. Glad you called them. Yeah, well, hey, Sean, 474 00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:45,520 Speaker 1: I just kind of want to echo what the previous 475 00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:48,000 Speaker 1: caller was talking about, and also just to say that 476 00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:53,160 Speaker 1: I think the number one, the number one priority right 477 00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:56,520 Speaker 1: now for the Republican Party is to get rid of 478 00:29:56,640 --> 00:30:00,320 Speaker 1: Joe Biden and Kamala Harris and we have to win 479 00:30:00,440 --> 00:30:03,240 Speaker 1: the twenty twenty two election. And a few months ago 480 00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:06,320 Speaker 1: I would have said that's a shoe win. And byle 481 00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:09,880 Speaker 1: looking at the record of Joe Boden and what's what's 482 00:30:09,920 --> 00:30:12,760 Speaker 1: he's produced because everything was seeing as a result of 483 00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:16,360 Speaker 1: November third, twenty twenty but everything that we're experienced in 484 00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:19,480 Speaker 1: right now is all his fault. But I'm afraid and 485 00:30:19,600 --> 00:30:22,280 Speaker 1: what concerns me, Sean, is that the Republican Party is 486 00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:26,000 Speaker 1: going to get distracted in this war with Ukraine and 487 00:30:26,440 --> 00:30:29,600 Speaker 1: we're going to let the Democrats control the narrative when 488 00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:32,320 Speaker 1: in fact, we need to be controlling the narrative about 489 00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:34,800 Speaker 1: Oh look at what the Democrats are doing now. They're 490 00:30:34,800 --> 00:30:38,440 Speaker 1: trying to blame the five months of record high, forty 491 00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:42,320 Speaker 1: year high inflation on Vladimir Putin. They're trying to blame 492 00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:46,000 Speaker 1: high gas prices on Vladimir Putin. Now we both know 493 00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:49,920 Speaker 1: that we had high gas prices before Putin invaded Ukraine. 494 00:30:49,960 --> 00:30:52,200 Speaker 1: And we both know that we had a forty year 495 00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:56,480 Speaker 1: high of inflation way before Putin ever invaded Ukraine. And 496 00:30:56,560 --> 00:30:59,840 Speaker 1: they're gonna lie, and they're gonna smear, slander, besmirch Republic. 497 00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:03,080 Speaker 1: But if you look at COVID, if you look at energy, 498 00:31:03,240 --> 00:31:05,680 Speaker 1: if you look at the economy, if you look at 499 00:31:05,720 --> 00:31:09,480 Speaker 1: the border disaster, if you look at the Afghanistan disaster, 500 00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:13,480 Speaker 1: and you look at Joe Timidweek and afraid as it 501 00:31:13,560 --> 00:31:17,400 Speaker 1: relates to Ukraine, there's a reason his approval ratings are 502 00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:20,320 Speaker 1: in the thirties. And I don't see him changing course 503 00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:23,320 Speaker 1: on any of these issues. Every one of them will 504 00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:27,160 Speaker 1: preventable and everyone's fixable, but he's not going to change 505 00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:31,480 Speaker 1: his policies because that is the modern democratic Socialist Party, 506 00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:35,520 Speaker 1: last word. Yeah, and they've been doing that for two years. 507 00:31:35,560 --> 00:31:37,840 Speaker 1: And Sean, what concerns me is so many people in 508 00:31:37,880 --> 00:31:41,719 Speaker 1: the Republican Party, like the Lindsey Graham's admit Romney's. They 509 00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:44,600 Speaker 1: keep throwing this guy a lifeline and enabling him by 510 00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:48,360 Speaker 1: going along with this reckless spending that's more inflationary, and 511 00:31:48,640 --> 00:31:51,160 Speaker 1: not focusing on the critical things that they're important to 512 00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:54,240 Speaker 1: the American people, like the southern border, like energy independence, 513 00:31:54,760 --> 00:31:58,520 Speaker 1: like lower inflation, and a lot of these people, as 514 00:31:58,560 --> 00:32:02,120 Speaker 1: you know, have contributed this to this problem. And I 515 00:32:02,280 --> 00:32:04,520 Speaker 1: just think that our focus needs to be to elect 516 00:32:04,560 --> 00:32:07,800 Speaker 1: Republicans to Congress in twenty twenty two. The right, I'm 517 00:32:07,800 --> 00:32:10,600 Speaker 1: gonna make it even more. I'm gonna hone in deeper. 518 00:32:11,040 --> 00:32:17,480 Speaker 1: Elect America first, save America, make America great again. Conservatives, 519 00:32:18,760 --> 00:32:21,960 Speaker 1: that's the answer. And the first thing, the first course 520 00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:26,200 Speaker 1: of business is to instill make sure your state legislatures 521 00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:30,760 Speaker 1: adopt integrity measures at the ballot box. But I got 522 00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:33,440 Speaker 1: a roll a good call, Thank you, Charles,
