WEBVTT - Biden Docs Debacle, Military Vax Mandates & Kamala's Declaration Omission 0:00:00.600 --> 0:00:03.960 Welcome. Its verdict was Senator Ted Cruz Ben Ferguson with 0:00:04.120 --> 0:00:08.160 you and Senator we made some serious headlines from our 0:00:08.240 --> 0:00:12.360 Wednesday podcast, and in that podcast you said it's time 0:00:12.360 --> 0:00:16.760 to start looking four documents and you named places, and 0:00:16.880 --> 0:00:19.919 now the White House has had to respond to that. 0:00:20.360 --> 0:00:23.680 The White House Press Secretary was asked about you saying, 0:00:24.239 --> 0:00:27.040 the documents are that are being hell at the University 0:00:27.040 --> 0:00:28.960 of Delaware, and there's a hell of a lot of them. 0:00:29.520 --> 0:00:31.639 Is anybody going to go through those? Here's how she 0:00:31.840 --> 0:00:37.040 responded to that. Questions regarding a comment from Senator Ted Cruz, 0:00:37.600 --> 0:00:40.559 He's calling for a search of President Biden's Senate records 0:00:40.600 --> 0:00:44.240 at the University of Delaware for potentially classified information. There's 0:00:44.280 --> 0:00:48.800 records reportedly include about eighteen hundred and fifty boxes of documents, 0:00:48.880 --> 0:00:52.240 as well as four hundred and fifteen gigabytes for electronic files. 0:00:53.000 --> 0:00:55.280 Does President Biden have any objection to such a search 0:00:55.920 --> 0:00:59.080 when it comes to the documents and this ongoing legal matter, 0:00:59.120 --> 0:01:01.840 I refer to the whale Counsel's office. Would I just 0:01:01.920 --> 0:01:05.880 like to read I'm so sorry you guys, just the 0:01:05.920 --> 0:01:07.720 request of our callings in this room for someone to 0:01:07.760 --> 0:01:12.600 answer these questions from the pubuan. I mean, what a dodge, Senator, 0:01:12.640 --> 0:01:14.560 what a dodge. Well done to her for doing her 0:01:14.640 --> 0:01:18.360 job that day, right, so I'm reminded of Monty Python. 0:01:19.480 --> 0:01:25.479 Her response to that question is run away, run away, 0:01:25.840 --> 0:01:29.960 like there is nothing preventing her from answering that question. 0:01:30.720 --> 0:01:35.679 His question was does Biden object to searching those documents? 0:01:35.920 --> 0:01:38.960 That's not even really a legal question, it's a political question. 0:01:39.560 --> 0:01:43.679 Is he open to allowing the FBI to search the 0:01:43.880 --> 0:01:47.160 documents from his tenure in the Senate? Mind you, he 0:01:47.319 --> 0:01:52.640 just made public that, oh crap, he had classified documents 0:01:52.680 --> 0:01:55.320 from his tenure in the Senate that were at his 0:01:55.520 --> 0:02:02.240 house in Wilmington. The University of Delaware has over one thousand, 0:02:02.360 --> 0:02:07.960 eight hundred and fifty boxes of documents from his Senate tenure. 0:02:08.320 --> 0:02:10.919 Now listen, if he had classified documents at his house, 0:02:12.040 --> 0:02:19.079 it's reasonable to ask where they're classified documents in those files. 0:02:19.800 --> 0:02:23.000 I believe the FBI will search those files. I think 0:02:23.000 --> 0:02:26.919 it's inevitable. But I think it's striking that the Biden 0:02:27.000 --> 0:02:29.639 White House won't say no, we don't object to that. 0:02:30.240 --> 0:02:33.360 They're not willing to go on record. That was an 0:02:33.360 --> 0:02:37.920 obvious dodge and I actually want to make clear I 0:02:37.960 --> 0:02:42.119 think it's not just the files at the University of Delaware. 0:02:43.040 --> 0:02:48.200 I think it is critical that the FBI search Hunter 0:02:48.360 --> 0:02:55.200 Biden's home and his office locations, given the enormous evidence 0:02:55.320 --> 0:03:01.200 of corruption involving Hunter Biden and Joe Biden, involving Hunter 0:03:01.240 --> 0:03:06.040 Biden's selling access to Joe Biden when he was vice president, 0:03:06.800 --> 0:03:11.640 involving Hunter Biden being paid millions of dollars from Barisma, 0:03:11.760 --> 0:03:16.680 the Ukrainian natural gas company, and millions of dollars from 0:03:17.200 --> 0:03:23.800 companies funded by the Chinese communist government at the same 0:03:23.800 --> 0:03:29.720 time that Hunter Biden, we know, was in his father's corvette. 0:03:30.000 --> 0:03:34.320 He has pictures out on the Internet of him driving 0:03:34.360 --> 0:03:39.800 his father's corvette which was parked we now know, and 0:03:39.920 --> 0:03:45.800 it is admitted next to classified documents. The FBI needs 0:03:45.840 --> 0:03:51.200 to search and investigate to determine whether there are any 0:03:51.280 --> 0:03:55.000 classified documents at Hunter Biden's home or business. And by 0:03:55.040 --> 0:04:00.000 the way, the next question someone might ask is, okay, well, 0:04:00.120 --> 0:04:04.640 what is the probable cause to search Hunter Biden's home 0:04:06.200 --> 0:04:10.520 or business? And there may or may not be probable 0:04:10.560 --> 0:04:13.040 cause if you had to go to a court and 0:04:13.200 --> 0:04:15.720 get a warrant for that search. You'd have to lay 0:04:15.760 --> 0:04:21.600 out the case. But the question that should be asked 0:04:21.760 --> 0:04:29.520 tomorrow to Karen Jean Pierre is does Hunter Biden object 0:04:30.320 --> 0:04:34.080 to an FBI search of his home and business, Because 0:04:35.160 --> 0:04:38.080 if there's no objection, the FBI can do it now. 0:04:38.080 --> 0:04:42.039 If he objects, that tells you something. And notice she 0:04:42.160 --> 0:04:47.479 wouldn't even answer if Joe Biden, the sitting president, objects 0:04:47.520 --> 0:04:51.200 to the search of his own Senate documents, that question 0:04:51.320 --> 0:04:55.040 needs to be asked. That search needs to happen. And 0:04:55.279 --> 0:04:58.479 I believe if at the end of the day we 0:04:58.680 --> 0:05:03.960 discover that these classes deified documents relate to the corruption 0:05:04.600 --> 0:05:09.320 of the Biden family, then we are facing real and 0:05:09.520 --> 0:05:13.359 material criminal charges. We don't know that there's no evidence 0:05:13.360 --> 0:05:17.360 of that. But at the same time, the Biden, FBI 0:05:17.480 --> 0:05:21.279 and DOJ, which leaks on every damn thing you can 0:05:21.320 --> 0:05:25.359 imagine related to Donald Trump, has been locked like a 0:05:25.440 --> 0:05:28.560 steel drum on this. So we know nothing about what's 0:05:28.600 --> 0:05:32.000 in these documents. We need to know. We need to 0:05:32.040 --> 0:05:35.200 search the University of Delaware documents, and we need to 0:05:35.240 --> 0:05:38.560 search Hunter Biden's home and office, and we need to 0:05:38.560 --> 0:05:41.800 do it now. The FBI doesn't need to sit on 0:05:41.880 --> 0:05:46.800 its rear end for days and weeks and months and 0:05:47.000 --> 0:05:51.120 let someone put those documents in a shredder. They need 0:05:51.160 --> 0:05:57.680 to show up tomorrow and search Hunter Biden's home and office. 0:05:58.680 --> 0:06:03.800 If we care about protecting classified documents and understanding what 0:06:03.880 --> 0:06:07.719 Joe Biden has done, we need to do that immediately. Yeah, 0:06:07.760 --> 0:06:09.520 there's no doubt about that. And I want to ask 0:06:09.520 --> 0:06:12.360 you also about the other family members. The one thing 0:06:12.360 --> 0:06:16.320 that the Bidens love to do was share office space center. 0:06:16.360 --> 0:06:18.520 And before I get your take on that, I want 0:06:18.520 --> 0:06:22.240 to remind everybody about Patriot Mobile. If you're a conservative 0:06:22.640 --> 0:06:25.039 and you're tired of giving your money to companies that 0:06:25.120 --> 0:06:27.440 don't stand up for your values and your beliefs, then 0:06:27.480 --> 0:06:30.320 you need to check out Patriot Mobile.

There's one thing that the 0:07:29.800 --> 0:07:33.240 Biden family really loves to do, and that is to 0:07:33.400 --> 0:07:37.400 commingle office space. We have the emails from Hunter Biden's 0:07:37.480 --> 0:07:43.440 laptop that talk about having keys made for shady Chinese communists, 0:07:44.080 --> 0:07:47.680 individuals who were with with with Cefe. We know that 0:07:47.720 --> 0:07:50.560 they were wanting keys for his not only for Joe Biden, 0:07:50.600 --> 0:07:54.080 but for Hunter Biden, for Joe Biden, and for Jimmy 0:07:54.760 --> 0:07:57.560 James Biden. When you look at at the University of 0:07:57.560 --> 0:08:02.120 Delaware in these documents, knowing that right after he left 0:08:02.120 --> 0:08:05.760 the White House they were co mingling office space, aren't 0:08:05.760 --> 0:08:08.640 there maybe even other locations that the FBI should be 0:08:08.640 --> 0:08:12.040 asking questions about now and who took what documents where, 0:08:12.440 --> 0:08:14.960 Because we also know that documents had to be stored 0:08:15.000 --> 0:08:17.080 somewhere before they went to the Biden Center. There's a 0:08:17.880 --> 0:08:20.640 significant chunk of time where those documents had to be 0:08:20.680 --> 0:08:23.960 somewhere else Where were they kept before? Then the classified 0:08:24.000 --> 0:08:27.920 documents and then those documents as garage where all had 0:08:27.960 --> 0:08:30.480 they been? Had they been a Jimmy's office or to 0:08:30.640 --> 0:08:35.200 Hunter's office, or to Jill's office for that matter. So look, 0:08:35.240 --> 0:08:38.120 I think those are all very reasonable questions. If you 0:08:38.200 --> 0:08:41.120 had a DOJ and an FBI that were investigating this 0:08:42.000 --> 0:08:47.160 seriously and with a nonpartisan focus, they would ask those questions. 0:08:47.200 --> 0:08:50.800 They would search those locations, you know. I'll say. Also, 0:08:51.760 --> 0:08:55.319 so we had a big headline that broke today, which 0:08:55.400 --> 0:08:59.320 is classified documents were discovered at Mike Pence's home address, 0:09:00.160 --> 0:09:02.240 and the press went into a bit of a tizzy 0:09:02.320 --> 0:09:05.080 on this. Now, I will say, I think there's a 0:09:05.120 --> 0:09:10.040 pretty significant difference between the Pence situation in the Biden situation. 0:09:10.880 --> 0:09:15.840 Pence and look, this was responsible, This was prudent when 0:09:15.920 --> 0:09:18.400 on a search of whatever documents where it is home 0:09:18.440 --> 0:09:21.439 residence when this happened, to say okay, let's make sure 0:09:21.480 --> 0:09:26.120 I don't have anything, and they discovered, Oh we do. Now. 0:09:26.280 --> 0:09:29.520 What Pence has done is he's put out a public explanation, 0:09:29.559 --> 0:09:32.520 which is he said that when he had staff packing 0:09:32.600 --> 0:09:36.040 up his office files in the Office of the Vice President, 0:09:36.720 --> 0:09:41.439 that inadvertently there were some classified documents that were put 0:09:41.480 --> 0:09:46.040 in the boxes along with unclassified documents. Now that's sloppy, 0:09:46.360 --> 0:09:51.640 it's not a wonderful explanation, but it's understandable. I don't 0:09:51.679 --> 0:09:55.600 think anyone thinks Mike Pence was there packing those boxes. 0:09:56.440 --> 0:10:00.400 So when he found it, he immediately admitted to it. 0:10:00.440 --> 0:10:03.320 He was forthcoming, He didn't hide it. He didn't do 0:10:03.320 --> 0:10:05.920 what Joe Biden did. This was discovered on November second, 0:10:06.480 --> 0:10:08.880 a week before election day, and he hit it. He 0:10:08.920 --> 0:10:11.880 didn't want the American people to know. Pence the incident. 0:10:11.960 --> 0:10:14.840 He knew about it, publicly admitted it, and he also 0:10:14.880 --> 0:10:18.160 gave an explanation. By the way, Joe Biden has given 0:10:18.360 --> 0:10:22.439 zero explanation for how he had these documents, no explanation 0:10:22.760 --> 0:10:25.400 for how he had the vice presidential documents, and even 0:10:25.520 --> 0:10:29.440 more stunning, no explanation for how he had the Senate documents. 0:10:29.480 --> 0:10:32.480 We've talked on this podcast at length about how in 0:10:32.520 --> 0:10:36.360 the Senate you review classified documents in a skiff, a 0:10:36.480 --> 0:10:41.520 secure location, so it takes extraordinary efforts. I have never 0:10:41.640 --> 0:10:44.880 once read a classified document in ten years in the 0:10:44.960 --> 0:10:49.240 Senate outside of the skiff, the secure location, so there 0:10:49.320 --> 0:10:52.240 is zero chance. I'm sitting in my DC apartment, I 0:10:52.440 --> 0:10:56.760 know to a metaphysical certainty there are zero classified documents 0:10:56.800 --> 0:10:59.800 in my DC apartment. Why because the only place I 0:11:00.160 --> 0:11:03.440 read a classified document has been in the skiff. Joe 0:11:03.480 --> 0:11:08.000 Biden has given zero explanation. He's not willing to give 0:11:08.000 --> 0:11:12.079 an explanation. I will admit, though, Ben, when the story 0:11:12.120 --> 0:11:16.280 about Pence broke, I was really really tempted to tweet 0:11:17.559 --> 0:11:21.920 holy cow, Hunter Biden went to Mike Pence's house too, 0:11:23.240 --> 0:11:25.760 And I literally pulled out my phone and started to 0:11:25.800 --> 0:11:30.040 type it. And then a guy on my team said, yeah, 0:11:30.120 --> 0:11:32.720 if you said that, people will read that as a 0:11:32.760 --> 0:11:34.640 shot at Mike Pence. And I'm like, no, I'm not 0:11:34.640 --> 0:11:37.280 taking a shot at Mike Pence. Look, Mike's a friend 0:11:37.280 --> 0:11:39.240 of mine, he's a good man. I don't want to 0:11:39.240 --> 0:11:41.480 take a shot at Mike. I'm taking a shot at 0:11:41.559 --> 0:11:44.360 Hunter and Biden and the Biden family corruption. But I 0:11:44.440 --> 0:11:47.360 gotta say I still thought it was funny as hell. 0:11:47.440 --> 0:11:50.959 So this is a tweet. I did not send this, 0:11:51.400 --> 0:11:55.880 but it made me laugh. I was walking along right 0:11:55.920 --> 0:12:01.000 alongside the underground railroad if from the Er office buildings 0:12:01.280 --> 0:12:03.800 to the Capitol, and I was almost sending the tweet, 0:12:03.800 --> 0:12:06.040 and then I'm like, no, I don't want to pop 0:12:06.080 --> 0:12:09.560 Mike Pence. He's a good guy. So if I send it, 0:12:09.600 --> 0:12:13.280 people will laugh, but they'll also twist it into popping Mike. 0:12:13.400 --> 0:12:16.080 So I didn't send the tweet. That's you have a 0:12:16.120 --> 0:12:18.439 wise staff around you. They know how people will screw 0:12:18.520 --> 0:12:21.560 that one up for you. Let's talk real quick about 0:12:21.679 --> 0:12:24.120 Joe Biden just sticking his foot in his mouth. All right, 0:12:24.200 --> 0:12:27.240 he does this a lot. We have that famous video 0:12:27.240 --> 0:12:30.720 of him now just talking about how, you know, I 0:12:30.760 --> 0:12:34.800 was in charge of the Ukraine gig, basically in charge 0:12:34.840 --> 0:12:36.880 of everything going from the US to Ukraine. He said 0:12:36.880 --> 0:12:38.920 I got all the good jobs, the good assignments when 0:12:38.920 --> 0:12:41.920 he was vice president, and then he bragged about having 0:12:41.960 --> 0:12:45.679 that prosecutor fire that was actually investigating his son's company 0:12:45.720 --> 0:12:50.480 with corruption in Ukraine. He loves to brag about these 0:12:50.520 --> 0:12:54.360 types of things. Well, you go back now and there's 0:12:54.360 --> 0:12:58.720 been some unearthing of how he has dealt with classified 0:12:58.760 --> 0:13:01.120 information when he was in this Senate. We also know 0:13:01.600 --> 0:13:03.679 that some of the documents found at his home and 0:13:04.080 --> 0:13:08.040 Delaware were from his time in the Senate, which at 0:13:08.040 --> 0:13:10.439 the bare minimum means they're fourteen plus years old. That 0:13:10.520 --> 0:13:13.480 the youngest some of these could easily be thirty forty 0:13:13.520 --> 0:13:16.439 years old. He's been a public official now for literally 0:13:16.480 --> 0:13:22.360 fifty years, but he apparently openly bragged about classified information, 0:13:22.600 --> 0:13:25.760 leaking it all the way back in nineteen eighty six 0:13:26.160 --> 0:13:29.760 in an interview that he did, well, that's exactly right. 0:13:29.800 --> 0:13:33.920 He did an interview in nineteen eighty six where he said, 0:13:34.080 --> 0:13:39.559 quote he twice threatened to go public with covert action 0:13:40.720 --> 0:13:46.479 plans by the Reagan administration that he believed were quote hairbrained, 0:13:47.520 --> 0:13:51.359 and to stop them, and to put this in context, 0:13:51.840 --> 0:13:54.320 in nineteen eighty six, Reagan is president. He's in his 0:13:54.360 --> 0:13:57.679 second term as president. Joe Biden as a senator, is 0:13:57.679 --> 0:14:01.360 a left wing senator who hated ro Old Reagan's foreign policy. 0:14:01.400 --> 0:14:03.960 He hated his foreign policy of standing up to the 0:14:04.000 --> 0:14:06.920 Soviet Union. He hated his foreign policy of winning the 0:14:06.920 --> 0:14:10.440 Cold War. He hated his foreign policy of standing up 0:14:10.480 --> 0:14:14.040 to the Sandinisis, and the communists that were pushing revolutions 0:14:14.040 --> 0:14:19.440 in Latin America. And so Biden bragged that when he 0:14:19.440 --> 0:14:22.520 heard about covert actions what the CIA was doing. And 0:14:22.560 --> 0:14:25.320 by the way, covert actions, covert is a fancy word 0:14:25.320 --> 0:14:30.800 for secret, what our US government is doing. All covert actions, 0:14:30.840 --> 0:14:34.080 one hundred percent of them are classified. They're usually classified 0:14:34.440 --> 0:14:40.400 at the highest level SCI code word classified. And Biden said, well, hell, 0:14:40.640 --> 0:14:43.280 I don't care about the classified documents. I didn't like 0:14:43.360 --> 0:14:45.200 what Reagan was doing, so I was just going to 0:14:45.320 --> 0:14:48.480 leak him. And by the way, Michael Reagan was a friend. 0:14:48.520 --> 0:14:53.680 He's Ronald Reagan's son. Michael Reagan tweeted out yesterday he said, quote, 0:14:54.600 --> 0:14:57.920 after my father was out of office, he shared to 0:14:57.960 --> 0:15:02.840 me that Senator Joe Biden confronted him and told him 0:15:02.880 --> 0:15:05.920 that if he disagreed with my father on a covert 0:15:05.960 --> 0:15:09.520 action he had planned, he would leak it to the 0:15:09.560 --> 0:15:14.080 media to stop it. Now, let me be clear, leaking 0:15:14.240 --> 0:15:18.440 a classified document to the media is a felony. Literally, 0:15:18.480 --> 0:15:21.520 this is Joe Biden bragging I will commit a felony 0:15:21.920 --> 0:15:26.040 because I don't like your foreign policy. So, going back 0:15:26.560 --> 0:15:33.600 forty years, Joe Biden has had a cavalier attitude towards 0:15:33.640 --> 0:15:38.160 classified documents. Now, there's a rich irony that he preened 0:15:38.360 --> 0:15:46.320 self righteously when the Biden FBI rated Mara Lago where 0:15:46.320 --> 0:15:49.880 he said, well, for him to have classified documents in 0:15:50.000 --> 0:15:55.600 a locked closet, that was irresponsible. And of course, Kareen 0:15:55.720 --> 0:15:59.480 John Piher, who you played at the outset of this podcast, 0:16:00.320 --> 0:16:03.880 when she was asked a few days ago, was it 0:16:04.200 --> 0:16:07.600 irresponsible for Joe Budden to do the exact same thing, 0:16:08.520 --> 0:16:14.400 she promptly said, to quote Monty Python run Away. She 0:16:14.520 --> 0:16:19.480 refused to answer, Yeah, it is. Truly. It's stunning to 0:16:19.640 --> 0:16:22.800 see how this White House has done everything they can 0:16:23.080 --> 0:16:26.120 just with the narrative to screw this up. And you're 0:16:26.160 --> 0:16:29.480 seeing this now and we're watching this really play out 0:16:30.000 --> 0:16:33.000 where the White House doesn't know which way is up. 0:16:33.120 --> 0:16:38.240 The President has basically lost total control of this narrative. 0:16:39.120 --> 0:16:43.720 And now you have I think two big storylines. You 0:16:43.800 --> 0:16:46.160 have the storyline, which is the FBI is now kind 0:16:46.160 --> 0:16:48.640 of having to do their job, and you also have 0:16:48.680 --> 0:16:51.600 the other storyline, which is undermining this White House as well, 0:16:52.000 --> 0:16:55.280 that the top level FBI individuals. We just saw this 0:16:55.400 --> 0:16:59.240 top FBI official charge with violating Russian sanctions. He was 0:16:59.240 --> 0:17:03.080 apparently making the decisions in the Carter Page investigation. They've 0:17:03.120 --> 0:17:06.919 got now problems all over the place. Even NBC News 0:17:07.440 --> 0:17:10.639 talked about this on the news. I mean, it was 0:17:11.040 --> 0:17:14.720 a shocking moment for me. They're having to cover documents 0:17:14.800 --> 0:17:18.880 that are classified at multiple residents and maybe at other 0:17:18.920 --> 0:17:21.760 offices and maybe with other searches, and they're having to 0:17:21.760 --> 0:17:24.560 admit that a former top FBI official was charged with 0:17:24.680 --> 0:17:28.920 violating Russian sanctions who was also making decisions on spying 0:17:28.920 --> 0:17:31.159 on Donald Trump. This may be the worst week in 0:17:31.280 --> 0:17:36.120 history for the FBI and the Democratic Party of actually 0:17:36.200 --> 0:17:38.359 all of the chickens coming home to roost at the 0:17:38.400 --> 0:17:41.760 same exact time. Well, let me just say wait till 0:17:41.880 --> 0:17:46.479 next week. I like it. I like to tease there, Senator. 0:17:46.520 --> 0:17:48.800 I like to tease there, Senator. I wanted you to 0:17:48.840 --> 0:17:51.280 give it an important update that's going to have a 0:17:51.400 --> 0:17:53.720 huge impact in our men and women in uniform when 0:17:53.720 --> 0:17:57.040 it comes to vaccine mandate. You're trying to get them reinstated. 0:17:57.400 --> 0:17:59.240 And before you go into that, I want to tell 0:17:59.280 --> 0:18:03.280 everybody about are good friends at AUGUSTA Precious Metals.

You've been fighting for 0:19:37.800 --> 0:19:44.840 quite some time about getting reinstated men and women in 0:19:44.880 --> 0:19:48.720 our military who were kicked out for not getting the vaccine. 0:19:49.119 --> 0:19:52.000 We've also now seen that they were going to recommend 0:19:52.040 --> 0:19:54.439 or have recommended, Oh, you should just get the COVID 0:19:54.520 --> 0:19:57.080 vaccine annually. If you're older, you should get two shots 0:19:57.080 --> 0:19:59.400 a year. If your children you should get two shots. Hears. 0:19:59.480 --> 0:20:01.800 We want to put the on the regular schedule for everybody, 0:20:01.840 --> 0:20:03.879 so when you're getting your flute shot, and how we 0:20:03.960 --> 0:20:06.639 might even do quote an experiment and put them together 0:20:06.680 --> 0:20:09.960 in one shot. And yet men and women stood up, 0:20:10.119 --> 0:20:12.840 lost their jobs. Some of them were even having to 0:20:12.880 --> 0:20:16.600 pay back their bonuses that they received while serving our country. 0:20:17.000 --> 0:20:20.200 And you and other senators and members of the House 0:20:20.240 --> 0:20:23.199 now are fighting really hard to try to make sure 0:20:23.600 --> 0:20:27.080 that these men and women are reinstated in the military. 0:20:27.400 --> 0:20:30.399 My question is, and so many other Americans senders who 0:20:30.520 --> 0:20:34.000 are in their right mind would hold this up because 0:20:34.040 --> 0:20:36.720 we also didn't hit our recruiting goals in our military 0:20:36.760 --> 0:20:44.200 this last year. We desperately need these people back in uniform. Well, listen, 0:20:44.240 --> 0:20:46.919 that's exactly right that there were a lot of policies 0:20:46.920 --> 0:20:51.000 over the last two years on COVID that were utterly indefensible. 0:20:51.840 --> 0:20:56.120 You saw the Biden administration shutting down small businesses, shutting 0:20:56.119 --> 0:20:59.720 down schools, sending millions of kids home and denying them 0:20:59.760 --> 0:21:03.600 in a education. You saw the Biden administration trying to 0:21:03.640 --> 0:21:08.679 fire federal employees, trying to force private employers to fire 0:21:08.800 --> 0:21:13.679 their employees if they didn't get a COVID vaccine. Of 0:21:14.040 --> 0:21:17.680 all of the policies, and every one of those was outrageous. 0:21:17.680 --> 0:21:20.000 It was an abuse of power, it was wrong. But 0:21:20.160 --> 0:21:24.199 of all of the policies, I'm not sure any was 0:21:24.320 --> 0:21:31.240 more outrageous then the Biden administration firing thousands upon thousands 0:21:31.320 --> 0:21:35.600 of active duty military men and women because they made 0:21:35.640 --> 0:21:39.720 the personal decision not to get the COVID vaccine. Some 0:21:39.800 --> 0:21:43.000 of them made it for religious reasons, they had religious objections. 0:21:43.680 --> 0:21:48.400 Others made it for personal health reasons. But thousands upon 0:21:48.520 --> 0:21:52.320 thousands of active duty military members were fired by Joe 0:21:52.359 --> 0:21:57.520 Biden eagerly, aggressively, proudly. By the way, the guy in 0:21:57.640 --> 0:21:59.639 charge of the COVID policy in the White House is 0:21:59.680 --> 0:22:05.359 the new Biden Chief of Staff, Jeff Zience, so they 0:22:05.400 --> 0:22:09.760 embraced these policies from the day they were announced. I 0:22:09.800 --> 0:22:12.320 have opposed these policies. I think they are wrong. I 0:22:12.359 --> 0:22:15.760 think they're abusive, I think they're illegal, I think they're immoral, 0:22:16.640 --> 0:22:19.240 and I've fought against them. I led the fight in 0:22:19.280 --> 0:22:24.600 the Senate against the Biden COVID vaccine mandates. On the 0:22:24.680 --> 0:22:30.200 military front, we won a big, a huge victory last 0:22:30.280 --> 0:22:37.040 month when Congress passed the National Defense Authorization Act and 0:22:37.240 --> 0:22:44.960 it by statute explicitly rescinded it repealed the Biden vaccine 0:22:44.960 --> 0:22:48.680 mandate in the military. That is a big damn deal. 0:22:48.880 --> 0:22:52.560 I have fought hard, others have fought hard, have spilled 0:22:52.560 --> 0:22:57.160 blood and sweat and tears to stop this immoral mandate. 0:22:57.240 --> 0:23:00.359 And so winning that victory we need to sell. We 0:23:00.680 --> 0:23:04.080 need to pause and say we got a big win here. 0:23:04.640 --> 0:23:07.919 We forced the Democrats to accept that they didn't want it. 0:23:07.920 --> 0:23:10.600 We forced Joe Biden to sign it he didn't want to, 0:23:10.680 --> 0:23:14.320 and that was a big win. But unfortunately, the price 0:23:14.440 --> 0:23:20.359 the Democrats extracted is the repeal was prospective only, which 0:23:20.400 --> 0:23:26.320 means going forward tomorrow, no active duty military members will 0:23:26.359 --> 0:23:29.240 be fired for not getting the COVID of vaccine. But 0:23:29.359 --> 0:23:33.359 it did absolutely nothing for the thousands, and I'd say thousands. 0:23:33.680 --> 0:23:36.639 We don't know the exact number. We know it is 0:23:36.680 --> 0:23:40.240 at a minimum thousands. It may be tens of thousands. 0:23:40.640 --> 0:23:45.080 The Biden administration refuses to answer this question. At a minimum, 0:23:45.080 --> 0:23:49.320 it is thousands of active duty military members who were fired, 0:23:49.359 --> 0:23:53.320 who were terminated, who were removed from the military, and 0:23:54.600 --> 0:23:58.720 the legislation we passed last month provides no relief for them. 0:23:59.400 --> 0:24:02.719 I file this week legislation I'm calling it the Americans 0:24:02.760 --> 0:24:07.280 Act that gives them relief. So if you're an active 0:24:07.359 --> 0:24:10.520 duty service men or woman and you were terminated from 0:24:10.520 --> 0:24:15.399 the military, you would have a right to return to 0:24:15.440 --> 0:24:21.199 the military, return at your original rank, return at the 0:24:21.240 --> 0:24:24.720 same level of benefits, get your benefits back, go back 0:24:24.760 --> 0:24:28.639 to serving our nation. If the mandate is wrong, and 0:24:28.720 --> 0:24:32.359 it is wrong, then it shouldn't just be wrong today. 0:24:32.400 --> 0:24:35.879 It should have been wrong yesterday and a year ago 0:24:35.960 --> 0:24:40.600 when these people were being fired. And beyond that, there 0:24:40.640 --> 0:24:44.880 are also thousands of servicemen and women who had their 0:24:44.960 --> 0:24:50.920 ranks reduced. My legislation provides that if you had your 0:24:51.000 --> 0:24:55.159 rank reduced, you get your rank restored and you get 0:24:55.200 --> 0:24:57.840 back pay. And beyond that, there are some servicemen and 0:24:57.880 --> 0:25:01.480 women who were fired who may may I could determination say, Look, 0:25:02.160 --> 0:25:04.399 I've got a job in the private sector. I've moved on. 0:25:04.480 --> 0:25:06.080 I don't want to go back to the military. Okay, 0:25:06.119 --> 0:25:07.359 if you don't want to go back, we're not going 0:25:07.440 --> 0:25:12.520 to make you. But those individuals, my legislation would provide 0:25:12.560 --> 0:25:16.199 that they get an honorable discharge, not just a general discharge, 0:25:16.480 --> 0:25:19.960 which ensures that they get the benefits they have earned 0:25:20.400 --> 0:25:24.040 by defending this nation. And I'll tell you this, to 0:25:24.160 --> 0:25:31.520 every soldier, every sailor, every airman, every marine, every coast guardsman, 0:25:33.040 --> 0:25:39.400 I'm going to keep fighting for you until you are 0:25:39.480 --> 0:25:43.760 taken care of, until justice is served. Because it is 0:25:43.880 --> 0:25:47.200 wrong that Democrats did this. And by the way, one 0:25:47.200 --> 0:25:50.560 of the big reasons been that Biden and the Democrats 0:25:50.600 --> 0:25:54.640 did this. I believe they are engaging in a purge, 0:25:55.359 --> 0:25:58.360 a purge of the military. They want to get rid 0:25:58.400 --> 0:26:01.800 of conservatives, they want to get rid of independent thinking. 0:26:02.240 --> 0:26:04.120 I was going to ask you that because there's so 0:26:04.160 --> 0:26:07.119 many people center that think this was exactly what you 0:26:07.200 --> 0:26:10.399 just describe. The easiest way to get rid of people 0:26:10.440 --> 0:26:14.840 that are probably more conservative yep, or more principled or 0:26:14.880 --> 0:26:17.359 are not willing to look the other way when they 0:26:17.440 --> 0:26:20.120
