1 00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:03,760 Speaker 1: Your holster is way more important than you think it is. 2 00:00:04,280 --> 00:00:06,640 Speaker 1: It's just way more important than you think it is. 3 00:00:06,720 --> 00:00:09,880 Speaker 1: What look, and I get that the holsters not the 4 00:00:10,600 --> 00:00:13,560 Speaker 1: sexy part of carrying firearms. All right, You want to 5 00:00:13,560 --> 00:00:15,920 Speaker 1: talk about your weapon and your ammunition. You want to 6 00:00:15,920 --> 00:00:17,919 Speaker 1: talk about your safety training. You want to talk about 7 00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:20,080 Speaker 1: how you did at the range. Oh, look at my groups. 8 00:00:20,120 --> 00:00:21,959 Speaker 1: I was doing these failure drills today, and all that 9 00:00:21,960 --> 00:00:24,120 Speaker 1: stuff is really important. I mean, really really important. I'm 10 00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:27,560 Speaker 1: not discounting that, but I've known so many people who 11 00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:30,000 Speaker 1: do all those things. They take all the necessary steps, 12 00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:34,199 Speaker 1: and then they carry with a holster they bought from 13 00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:36,879 Speaker 1: a big box hunting store that was made a thousand 14 00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:40,040 Speaker 1: at a time. Please don't put your life in one 15 00:00:40,080 --> 00:00:44,360 Speaker 1: of those holsters. You need to trust Northwest Retention Systems 16 00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:48,840 Speaker 1: because it's all custom made gear. It's the only thing 17 00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:54,520 Speaker 1: I carry around NW retention dot Com. That's NW Retention 18 00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:57,520 Speaker 1: dot Com used to promo co Jesse gets you ten 19 00:00:57,560 --> 00:01:03,720 Speaker 1: percent off accountability. We're about to have a little discussion 20 00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:07,360 Speaker 1: about that. Sports. Hold on, even if you're not a 21 00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:10,080 Speaker 1: sports person, I'm gonna tell you why the leftism of 22 00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:13,679 Speaker 1: sports actually matters a lot and finally a life hack. 23 00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:16,320 Speaker 1: You're gonna want all that's coming up right now. And 24 00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:28,840 Speaker 1: I'm right. I'm big on accountability. I mean for everybody else, 25 00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:31,400 Speaker 1: not for me, of course, but I'm very big on accountability. 26 00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:34,760 Speaker 1: I've got I've got two sons. They're fairly good kids 27 00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:36,640 Speaker 1: as in the you know, probably not going to get 28 00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:39,800 Speaker 1: into any colleges, but they'll hopefully live long. Kind of 29 00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:44,160 Speaker 1: good kids. But sometimes they don't listen as young boys 30 00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:46,640 Speaker 1: who are growing up tend to do. Now, will we 31 00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:49,800 Speaker 1: keep them disciplined in the house, But for instance, I 32 00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:52,800 Speaker 1: send them out to do chores outside all the time, 33 00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:56,320 Speaker 1: various things. Some work around the yard, take out the trash, 34 00:01:56,920 --> 00:02:01,200 Speaker 1: go get the mail. My boys, because they are heathens, 35 00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:04,920 Speaker 1: hate shoes. I don't know why they hate shoes. I 36 00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:06,720 Speaker 1: didn't raise them to hate shoes. I love shoes. I 37 00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:08,840 Speaker 1: have shoes on right now and pants. Not to brag, 38 00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:11,760 Speaker 1: but my kids hate shoes. They hate them, they won't 39 00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:14,880 Speaker 1: wear them, and they continue to go a long way. 40 00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:17,200 Speaker 1: Our mailbox is a long ways off to go get 41 00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:22,000 Speaker 1: the mail and come back. Well, these are roads, sidewalks, 42 00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:26,079 Speaker 1: there's construction everywhere, there is broken glass. People drink beer 43 00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:29,880 Speaker 1: in my neighborhood. There are nails, staples, everything on the ground, 44 00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:34,120 Speaker 1: and I've told them time after time after time after time, 45 00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:36,880 Speaker 1: wear shoes to get the mail, wear shoes, to get 46 00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:39,120 Speaker 1: the mail wear shoes. You're gonna get a nail through 47 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:43,280 Speaker 1: your foot wear shoes. Finally they did it again, Rand 48 00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:45,639 Speaker 1: got the mail came back. I looked at both barefoot, 49 00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:47,440 Speaker 1: and I just pulled them over and I told them, 50 00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:52,280 Speaker 1: all right, understand this. I don't care anymore that you're 51 00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:55,680 Speaker 1: not gonna wear shoes. Forget the shoes, but you need 52 00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:59,640 Speaker 1: to understand the day when the day comes that you 53 00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:01,960 Speaker 1: come back to me and your foot is gushing blood, 54 00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:05,240 Speaker 1: I'm not going to care. I'm not going to show sympathy. 55 00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:07,520 Speaker 1: You're going to find a way to wrap up your 56 00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:09,720 Speaker 1: foot so it doesn't bleed in my pickup truck. I'm 57 00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:11,440 Speaker 1: going to take you to the hospital and get you 58 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:14,040 Speaker 1: fixed up, and then you are going to work your 59 00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:16,920 Speaker 1: tail off to pay me back every single dime that 60 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:21,200 Speaker 1: medical visit costs. You know why, you know why I 61 00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:24,520 Speaker 1: said that to him, because it is important that we 62 00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:28,359 Speaker 1: have accountability in this life for our mistakes, your mistakes, 63 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:33,200 Speaker 1: my mistakes. Accountability is everything and somehow as a society, 64 00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:36,760 Speaker 1: as a culture in America, we've lost that. I'm sure 65 00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:38,720 Speaker 1: there are a million and one reasons for it. I'm 66 00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 1: sure one of them is the new social media age 67 00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:43,839 Speaker 1: where you can have the biggest outrage in the world, 68 00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:45,320 Speaker 1: or the next day you wake up but ah, the 69 00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:49,080 Speaker 1: world's closed, the world's coming to an end. So I'd 70 00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:52,840 Speaker 1: like to pause for a moment and reflect back on 71 00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:57,800 Speaker 1: the lockdowns and what that has meant for our society. 72 00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:00,440 Speaker 1: You see, I'm not going to do this thing where 73 00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:03,600 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna forget about everything, forget about what this 74 00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:05,920 Speaker 1: person did, forget about what that person did, forget about 75 00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:09,000 Speaker 1: what this person advised. I'm not here to judge anybody, 76 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:13,040 Speaker 1: but are we going to address the mental health crisis 77 00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:15,920 Speaker 1: in the United States of America? Do you know there 78 00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:20,960 Speaker 1: are people all over the nation, people on suicide hotlines, national, 79 00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:24,960 Speaker 1: state and local suicide hotlines that say their offices have 80 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:31,360 Speaker 1: been overwhelmed and continue to be overwhelmed because of the lockdowns. 81 00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:35,880 Speaker 1: You know, psychiatrists and psychologists have been screaming from the 82 00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:40,440 Speaker 1: rooftops from the beginning, and now this is increasing that 83 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:43,280 Speaker 1: we need to get people back out into society again. 84 00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:47,680 Speaker 1: Because of the lockdowns. Are we really supposed to pretend 85 00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 1: look around you at the last month, month and a 86 00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:56,159 Speaker 1: half anarchy in this society, looting, rioting, burning, murdering. Are 87 00:04:56,200 --> 00:05:00,240 Speaker 1: we really supposed to pretend all this newfound anger in 88 00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:03,840 Speaker 1: hatred of America just came out of thin air that 89 00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:08,200 Speaker 1: had nothing to do with taking people normal people, some 90 00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:12,320 Speaker 1: people unbalanced, some people right on the edge, taking away 91 00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:15,719 Speaker 1: their job, stuffing him them in their homes and saying 92 00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:19,480 Speaker 1: stay there. Are we going to pretend that it doesn't 93 00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:23,080 Speaker 1: have a devastating effect on society that we're now seeing 94 00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:26,359 Speaker 1: the fruits of To tell people you were not allowed 95 00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:29,599 Speaker 1: to commingle anymore. You're not allowed to hang out with 96 00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:31,960 Speaker 1: your friends. You're not allowed to go out to a bar, 97 00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:34,800 Speaker 1: not allowed to go out to a restaurant with the fam. 98 00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:39,039 Speaker 1: You are not allowed to attend your mother's funeral to 99 00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:43,760 Speaker 1: properly mourn with family and friends. You're not allowed to 100 00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:47,640 Speaker 1: go to church. Are we supposed to sit back and 101 00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:52,880 Speaker 1: pretend that all this craziness we see now didn't have 102 00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:56,080 Speaker 1: anything to do with locking down a country of three 103 00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:59,800 Speaker 1: hundred and thirty million healthy people. I won't pretend that 104 00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:04,040 Speaker 1: I think that is flatly absurd, and I want somebody 105 00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:08,279 Speaker 1: just give me one person. I want one person who 106 00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:10,960 Speaker 1: has the guts, who was all pro locked down this, 107 00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:13,599 Speaker 1: stay home, that hide hide under your bed, that I 108 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:16,440 Speaker 1: want one honest person to step up and say, Look, 109 00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:22,000 Speaker 1: maybe I was wrong. Maybe we're seeing some really, really 110 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:25,280 Speaker 1: really ugly stuff come out of these lockdowns, and maybe 111 00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:31,160 Speaker 1: just health wise, maybe lockdowns are bad. Maybe lockdowns are 112 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:37,680 Speaker 1: bad medicine. Are we allowed to say that? Bob? I'm 113 00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:41,400 Speaker 1: a doctor. You're a doctor. You're a doctor, so you're 114 00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:44,920 Speaker 1: supposed to know how the human body, the human mind works. Well, 115 00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:48,880 Speaker 1: that's funny, because I'm an idiot. I was in construction 116 00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:51,200 Speaker 1: and then the Marines, and then I went to community college. 117 00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:54,440 Speaker 1: I don't know anything. And even I know the human 118 00:06:54,520 --> 00:07:00,960 Speaker 1: mind needs fresh air, exercise, social interaction. The human mind 119 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:03,920 Speaker 1: needs a job, needs a purpose in life. And you, 120 00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:08,080 Speaker 1: as a doctor, you thought you could take all those 121 00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:16,720 Speaker 1: away without severe consequences. Oh when did I mention kids again? 122 00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:19,520 Speaker 1: Back to my kids. They got two good kids, strong kids. 123 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:21,800 Speaker 1: We raise them. You don't know, whining things like that. 124 00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:26,440 Speaker 1: I've seen this affect my kids. They're not losing their minds. 125 00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:29,120 Speaker 1: We're not pouring pills down their throat or anything like that. 126 00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:33,080 Speaker 1: But I've seen it affect my kids. My kids need 127 00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:36,960 Speaker 1: social interaction. My kids need my kids need to go 128 00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:43,040 Speaker 1: out in schools, athletic activities. My kids need to be 129 00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:45,800 Speaker 1: able to go out talk with other people. And those 130 00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:48,800 Speaker 1: are my kids. Those are kids who are raised in 131 00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:51,400 Speaker 1: a loving household. Granted, as you can imagine, I'm not 132 00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 1: Father of the Year, they got two parents that love 133 00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:58,240 Speaker 1: them in the home. Now that's my kids. What about 134 00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:01,680 Speaker 1: all the kids from a disastrous home, a broken home, 135 00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:05,320 Speaker 1: kids who have real mental health issues, or are stuck 136 00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:08,080 Speaker 1: with a parent or guardian with real mental health issues. 137 00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:12,240 Speaker 1: What have we done to those kids? How much have 138 00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:17,440 Speaker 1: we permanently damaged those poor kids? For all the talk 139 00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:19,360 Speaker 1: we do in this country about it's about the kids, 140 00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:22,600 Speaker 1: it's about the children, kids, kids, kids, how often have 141 00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:26,480 Speaker 1: you even seen kids mentioned during all this? Because these 142 00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:29,960 Speaker 1: kids are stuck and these kids are suffering. I can 143 00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:32,520 Speaker 1: get in my truck and take a drive, go grab 144 00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:35,240 Speaker 1: six back, come home, go sit in my room. My 145 00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:39,520 Speaker 1: kids can't drive anywhere, can't do anything. My kids are stuck. 146 00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:45,000 Speaker 1: And again that's my kids. Tough situation out there, schools 147 00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:48,280 Speaker 1: had better be open. These freaking kids aren't even vulnerable. 148 00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:51,920 Speaker 1: Get these kids back in school, or get homeschool and 149 00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:55,600 Speaker 1: ruled up again, which wouldn't be bad. President Trump seems 150 00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:57,280 Speaker 1: to be on board, at least that's what we can 151 00:08:57,320 --> 00:09:01,640 Speaker 1: glean from this tweet says quote schools must open in 152 00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:04,120 Speaker 1: the fall, and he put it in all capital letters, 153 00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:08,400 Speaker 1: so we knew he absolutely meant it. Trump said something else, 154 00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:11,800 Speaker 1: corrupt Joe Biden and Democrat and the Democrats don't want 155 00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:14,600 Speaker 1: to open schools in the fall for political reasons, not 156 00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:18,280 Speaker 1: for health reasons. They think it will help them in November. Wrong. 157 00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:21,840 Speaker 1: The people get it. Let us hope the people get 158 00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:25,720 Speaker 1: it now. Doctor Fauci has caught a lot of crap 159 00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:28,280 Speaker 1: throughout all this. I've been one of the ones giving 160 00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:31,000 Speaker 1: it to him throughout all this. I think he got 161 00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:33,320 Speaker 1: himself a little too in love with the spotlight. And 162 00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:36,360 Speaker 1: I think he's probably a man, as many doctors are, 163 00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:39,520 Speaker 1: let's be honest, probably not a man willing to step 164 00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:44,800 Speaker 1: up and say got some of that wrong. However, he 165 00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:48,440 Speaker 1: got this right. There are things that can creatively be 166 00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:54,079 Speaker 1: done about modifying things like the school schedule, alternate days 167 00:09:54,600 --> 00:10:01,760 Speaker 1: morning versus evening allowing under certain circumstances, online virtual lessons. 168 00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:05,559 Speaker 1: Those are the kind of things that we need to consider, 169 00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:09,080 Speaker 1: but also importantly always make the goal that it is 170 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:12,760 Speaker 1: very important to get the children back to school for 171 00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:17,000 Speaker 1: the unintended negative consequences that occur when we keep them 172 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:21,200 Speaker 1: out of school. Well, he's right about that, but I 173 00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:28,280 Speaker 1: have to say, man, unintended negative consequences, It is interesting 174 00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:31,600 Speaker 1: to hear him concerned about that now after we wiped 175 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:34,200 Speaker 1: out forty million jobs and running up a four or 176 00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:41,120 Speaker 1: five trillion dollar deficit in one year. Trump the administration 177 00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:45,000 Speaker 1: official officials says they're working to open schools. Quote the 178 00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:48,160 Speaker 1: FDC or the CDC. I mean it's a CDC never 179 00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:50,760 Speaker 1: recommended school closures because they didn't believe that was an 180 00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:55,280 Speaker 1: effective strategy. The official continued. But these decisions are local decisions, 181 00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:57,040 Speaker 1: and our goal is to work hand in hand with 182 00:10:57,080 --> 00:10:59,560 Speaker 1: the local jurisdictions to make sure they see the best 183 00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:02,440 Speaker 1: ways to reopen schools in a safe way and to 184 00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:05,040 Speaker 1: get back where we would have we would have really 185 00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:07,480 Speaker 1: preferred to have been in the spring, which is to 186 00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:12,520 Speaker 1: have an active educational component available to the students. Florida 187 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:15,760 Speaker 1: State that's looking increasingly like one I'm about to move to. 188 00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:19,959 Speaker 1: They're all about this. Quote. Upon reopening in August, all 189 00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:23,080 Speaker 1: school boards and charter school governing boards must open brick 190 00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:25,360 Speaker 1: and mortar schools at least five days per week for 191 00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:29,360 Speaker 1: all students. School districts must also provide quote the full 192 00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:32,200 Speaker 1: array of services that are required by law, so that 193 00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:34,760 Speaker 1: families who wish to educate their children and are brick 194 00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:40,600 Speaker 1: and mortar school have the opportunity to do so. Get 195 00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:45,000 Speaker 1: these kids back in school. Back to interacting again and again. 196 00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:49,120 Speaker 1: Let me circle back to unintended consequences. Do you know 197 00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:51,680 Speaker 1: what's pushing so much at this? I'm not sure about schools. 198 00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:54,960 Speaker 1: Should we homeschool? Let's just virtual school it? And this 199 00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:57,160 Speaker 1: is going to be offensive to so many, but I 200 00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:01,960 Speaker 1: don't care. These suburban, yrant soccer moms out there who 201 00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:05,439 Speaker 1: live and die to make sure little billy gets it 202 00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:07,800 Speaker 1: his bubble at all times. And oh my gosh, he 203 00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:11,679 Speaker 1: scraped his nee, let's get him on life support. What 204 00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:17,000 Speaker 1: I heard there's danger, these tyrant suburban soccer moms who 205 00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:21,520 Speaker 1: think their little billy should be in a bubble. They're 206 00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:26,040 Speaker 1: ruining this society. I've watched it happening locally in my 207 00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:29,360 Speaker 1: town as well. Schools want to reopen, schools about reopening, 208 00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:32,960 Speaker 1: And all it takes is five or six horrific Karens 209 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:35,760 Speaker 1: to go beating down the door and talk about how 210 00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:39,240 Speaker 1: young Hayden or Braden or Cayden shouldn't be going back 211 00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:42,160 Speaker 1: to school. Then put your kid in a bubble and 212 00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:44,000 Speaker 1: put him out in the middle of the ocean, so 213 00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:48,560 Speaker 1: nothing ever happens. The rest of society must go on. 214 00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:54,840 Speaker 1: All of that may have made you uncomfortable, but I 215 00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:58,400 Speaker 1: am right now. You know what else should make you uncomfortable? 216 00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:02,920 Speaker 1: If you have all your money in stocks and bonds? 217 00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:05,680 Speaker 1: Why do you have all your money in stocks and 218 00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:08,160 Speaker 1: bonds right now? Do we really need to lay out 219 00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:10,880 Speaker 1: for you again the financial situation in this country. I 220 00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:13,040 Speaker 1: realize it's not big news right now, nobody wants to 221 00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:16,640 Speaker 1: talk about it. But is it ever big news until 222 00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:20,040 Speaker 1: that bubble pops? We all know that bubble is going 223 00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:22,720 Speaker 1: to pop. It's not a matter of if, it's a 224 00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:26,480 Speaker 1: matter of when when it does. The people who have 225 00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:29,800 Speaker 1: their money and things that hold their value, like precious metal, 226 00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:33,160 Speaker 1: they're gonna be fine. Go find out about a precious 227 00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:36,240 Speaker 1: metals Ira from Birch Gold.

We'll be back. We're gonna 230 00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:56,240 Speaker 1: talk about sports and society, sports in its relationship to 231 00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:59,040 Speaker 1: society for just a moment. And I know many of 232 00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:01,040 Speaker 1: you are sports fans. Some of you may not be 233 00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:03,360 Speaker 1: sports fans and fans, and that's fine. It's not going 234 00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:05,440 Speaker 1: to matter whether you are or not for the purpose 235 00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:10,040 Speaker 1: of this conversation. But understand this. You as a human being, 236 00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:15,720 Speaker 1: you need to absolutely need to have some form of 237 00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:18,360 Speaker 1: an escape in your life, don't you. You need to 238 00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:20,320 Speaker 1: have some time off. Even if you're one of these 239 00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:23,440 Speaker 1: people who works nine thousand hours a week, you need 240 00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:26,520 Speaker 1: something at the end of that. You undoubtedly do. Whether 241 00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:30,800 Speaker 1: that's something is some fishing, golf, baseball, football, time with 242 00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:34,560 Speaker 1: the kids, whether you play chess, whether you do anything else. 243 00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:39,200 Speaker 1: You have something, some way to get away, some outlet 244 00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:41,480 Speaker 1: to get away. That's important for you as a person. 245 00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:47,280 Speaker 1: It's important for society at large as well. Cultural cultures 246 00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:51,440 Speaker 1: can't only be work. They can't be cultures have to 247 00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:54,840 Speaker 1: be distracted now and then a vacation and get away. 248 00:14:54,880 --> 00:15:00,280 Speaker 1: You just absolutely have to now and again. So that's 249 00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:03,120 Speaker 1: why sports matter so much in America. And it's not 250 00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:05,680 Speaker 1: as if it's unique to our culture. Throughout the history 251 00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:09,560 Speaker 1: of the world, cultures have loved sports. The Roman gladiatorial games, 252 00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:12,480 Speaker 1: we don't like to think about them that way because 253 00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:16,840 Speaker 1: they were bloody and violent and there were some Christians 254 00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:20,800 Speaker 1: murder there, and animals and prisoners and torture and death, 255 00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:23,200 Speaker 1: and it's not exactly what you and I like to 256 00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:25,480 Speaker 1: think of when it comes to sports. Still more entertaining 257 00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:28,760 Speaker 1: the women's basketball, but that's another matter. But it still 258 00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:33,040 Speaker 1: was their sport for their day. They knew, you know, 259 00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:36,120 Speaker 1: when the emperors put on those gladiatorial games all the time. 260 00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:39,360 Speaker 1: They put on the games when the people were upset, 261 00:15:39,640 --> 00:15:42,040 Speaker 1: when there was tension, when there was riots, because they 262 00:15:42,120 --> 00:15:47,520 Speaker 1: knew the people needed something to get themselves away. Forever, 263 00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:51,920 Speaker 1: in the United States of America, that has been sports. 264 00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:58,200 Speaker 1: I understand why sports has gone this way of leftist activism. 265 00:15:58,280 --> 00:16:01,200 Speaker 1: It's a couple of different reasons. One the leftist activists 266 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:04,720 Speaker 1: of yesteryear, who we all convinced ourselves we're gonna change 267 00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:07,360 Speaker 1: as soon as they left college campus. While they didn't change. 268 00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:11,080 Speaker 1: Now they're in boardrooms now. They have meetings. These huge 269 00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:16,600 Speaker 1: corporations they get around together and they have meetings and say, hm, well, 270 00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:20,480 Speaker 1: forget about profits, what have we done to help gay 271 00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:23,760 Speaker 1: people today? Now that may seem ridiculous for you for 272 00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:25,360 Speaker 1: a corporate I mean, who would talk about that in 273 00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:27,440 Speaker 1: a corporate board meeting? Isn't that a separate issue. We're 274 00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:29,240 Speaker 1: here going to talk about profits and losses and things 275 00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:31,920 Speaker 1: like that. These are the meetings they have today. So 276 00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:34,920 Speaker 1: that's part of it. Another part of it is this 277 00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:39,400 Speaker 1: Black Lives Matter infection throughout sports. That is that has 278 00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:42,560 Speaker 1: gotten to everybody who don't realize this is a leftist 279 00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:46,880 Speaker 1: Marxist front group. It's not about equality, it's about black supremacy. 280 00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:50,840 Speaker 1: It's about left supremacy. It's about domination. So all that's 281 00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:54,680 Speaker 1: part of it. All that has resulted in athletes is 282 00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:57,760 Speaker 1: only speaking out to one side of the issue. Have 283 00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:01,080 Speaker 1: you ever noticed that you never get the professional athlete 284 00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:04,680 Speaker 1: anymore ever, to come out and speak about an issue 285 00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:08,119 Speaker 1: on the right that he's passionate about. Ever Drew Brees, 286 00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:10,639 Speaker 1: You remember Drew Brees. Drew Brees put out a video 287 00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:14,120 Speaker 1: that was the most benign red white and blue God 288 00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:17,359 Speaker 1: bless America video anyone's ever seen, not Republican, not Democrat. 289 00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:19,680 Speaker 1: He talked about his grandfather's fighting in World War Two. 290 00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:22,240 Speaker 1: I love the flag, have a good in everybody. The 291 00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:26,040 Speaker 1: dude had to issue about nine dozen public apologies for it. 292 00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:28,720 Speaker 1: That's not even on the right, that's down in the middle. 293 00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:31,840 Speaker 1: Unless you're an America hater, you don't even get to 294 00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:36,080 Speaker 1: speak publicly now. And the reason all this matters is 295 00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:42,800 Speaker 1: this you're taking away the American's ability to feel like 296 00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:48,600 Speaker 1: there's an escape. Everyone needs an escape, even you political hounds. 297 00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:51,879 Speaker 1: You need an escape from it, don't you. I'll be 298 00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:54,320 Speaker 1: honest with you. I do. I have a three hour 299 00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:56,720 Speaker 1: radio show every day, that Jesse Kelly Show, not to brag, 300 00:17:56,800 --> 00:18:00,440 Speaker 1: naturally syndicated. I have this every single night. I'm right, 301 00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:04,040 Speaker 1: that's four hours of talking politics every day. Do you 302 00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:05,840 Speaker 1: know what I talk about? When I walk into my 303 00:18:05,840 --> 00:18:09,320 Speaker 1: neighbor's house on a Friday night, I say, hey, pass 304 00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:12,440 Speaker 1: me about heavy, Let's go play some cornhole and talk 305 00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:19,080 Speaker 1: about sports, anything else but politics. No, I don't want 306 00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:22,080 Speaker 1: to talk about it anymore. I need an escape. You 307 00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:26,360 Speaker 1: need an escape. The reason this leftist push in sports 308 00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:30,320 Speaker 1: is so damaging. So much more damaging than even you realize. 309 00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:34,240 Speaker 1: Is sports have always been that escape. I want to 310 00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:36,640 Speaker 1: sit back on a Sunday and turn on the TV 311 00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:40,080 Speaker 1: and I want to watch giants who run a forty 312 00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:43,120 Speaker 1: in two seconds, smash into each other and rip each 313 00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:45,560 Speaker 1: other's heads off. And I want to see competition. I 314 00:18:45,600 --> 00:18:47,480 Speaker 1: want to see greatness. I want to see all of it. 315 00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:50,000 Speaker 1: I want to see all of it. You know what, 316 00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:53,760 Speaker 1: I don't want to see any political message, not on 317 00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:56,680 Speaker 1: your side, not on my side. I just want to 318 00:18:56,720 --> 00:19:00,000 Speaker 1: watch you play sports. And so many people out there, 319 00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:03,480 Speaker 1: that's all they want. That's my three hours away during 320 00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:05,600 Speaker 1: the week. I just want to watch you play sports. 321 00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:10,359 Speaker 1: It especially now when politics has infected everything else. You 322 00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:13,360 Speaker 1: can't watch TV, you can't watch a television commercial. You're 323 00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:17,400 Speaker 1: getting Black Lives Matter waterboarding you every five seconds. Can 324 00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:21,520 Speaker 1: I just have a football game where the answer is no, no, 325 00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:24,800 Speaker 1: you can't. You can't have NASCAR, you can't have a 326 00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:28,040 Speaker 1: football game, you can't have professional baseball, you can't have 327 00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:32,679 Speaker 1: the NBA, and leftists aren't ever gonna let you have 328 00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:36,600 Speaker 1: them again. I know that's bad news for you. I'm 329 00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:39,199 Speaker 1: impressed about it. I want to play fantasy football this 330 00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:41,280 Speaker 1: year and watch my team gets screwed again. But that's 331 00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:46,480 Speaker 1: another matter. I'm not watching them. I've had enough. Leftists 332 00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:53,879 Speaker 1: don't look at anything anything and say to themselves, we 333 00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:56,320 Speaker 1: don't need to go there. Oh, let's leave that alone. 334 00:19:56,640 --> 00:20:00,560 Speaker 1: It is not a political ideology. It is a religion 335 00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:04,439 Speaker 1: of domination, and you need to accept that they're coming 336 00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:07,080 Speaker 1: for all of it unless you and I stop them. 337 00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:12,000 Speaker 1: Here's just a few of the recent examples. Kaepernick tweets 338 00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:16,560 Speaker 1: on the July fourth. Black people have been dehumanized, brutalized, criminalized, 339 00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:20,600 Speaker 1: and terrorized by America for centuries and are expected to 340 00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:25,040 Speaker 1: join your commemoration of independence while you enslaved our ancestors. 341 00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:28,920 Speaker 1: We reject your celebration of white supremacy and look forward 342 00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:32,760 Speaker 1: to liberation for all. Which is very funny, because I'd 343 00:20:32,760 --> 00:20:35,440 Speaker 1: like to introduce that Colin Kaepernick to the Colin Kaepernick 344 00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:37,920 Speaker 1: of twenty and eleven, who said this, happy fourth of 345 00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:42,200 Speaker 1: July everyone, I hope everyone has a blessed day. Amazing. 346 00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:44,800 Speaker 1: What can happen when you start hanging with the wrong crowd, 347 00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:47,920 Speaker 1: And so what happens is we say to ourselves, Okay, 348 00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:50,679 Speaker 1: so Kaepernick's a dirt ball. But at least we have 349 00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:55,920 Speaker 1: some dudes out. There's some all American dudes, right, Americana. Baby. Look, 350 00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:59,480 Speaker 1: it's not like somebody like J. J. Watts whatever kneel 351 00:20:59,520 --> 00:21:04,760 Speaker 1: for the Oh oh maybe he will. J J. Watt quote, 352 00:21:05,119 --> 00:21:08,240 Speaker 1: don't speak for me. If you still think it's about 353 00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:13,040 Speaker 1: disrespecting the flag or our military, you clearly haven't been listening. 354 00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:17,680 Speaker 1: And here's what's going on with JJ Watt. JJ Watt 355 00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:20,840 Speaker 1: cares about money. Sure, he cares about football and everything 356 00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:24,600 Speaker 1: else too. That's fine. But he cares about money, cares 357 00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:27,840 Speaker 1: about his locker room, but he doesn't care enough about 358 00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:29,840 Speaker 1: his locker room to stand up and be a leader 359 00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:33,600 Speaker 1: and speak the truth. You see this line that I 360 00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:36,440 Speaker 1: absolutely laugh when I hear them trot out every time. 361 00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:40,080 Speaker 1: It's not about disrespecting America or the military. Let's just 362 00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:44,600 Speaker 1: speak clear about that. Stop that. Of course, it's about that. 363 00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:49,760 Speaker 1: You can kneel at any moment you choose to kneel, 364 00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:54,040 Speaker 1: specifically at the moment where we honor America. The entire 365 00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:58,440 Speaker 1: purpose of kneeling at that moment is to disrespect America, 366 00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:01,440 Speaker 1: is to disrespect the flag. And on top of that, 367 00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:05,920 Speaker 1: even that aside Kaepernick has come out several times as 368 00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:10,760 Speaker 1: he just said here and said, it's absolutely about disrespecting America. 369 00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:13,200 Speaker 1: Stop trying to have your cake and eat it too, 370 00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:17,320 Speaker 1: JJ Watt and others. You can either be this SuperPatriot, 371 00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:19,560 Speaker 1: look I'm the best guy in the world, or you 372 00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:22,159 Speaker 1: can take a steaming dump on the American flag. You 373 00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:27,640 Speaker 1: don't get to do both, Chris Paul said this. We're 374 00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:31,600 Speaker 1: just trying to continue to shed light on the different 375 00:22:31,640 --> 00:22:34,919 Speaker 1: social justice issues that guys around our league continue to 376 00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:37,760 Speaker 1: talk about. Day in and day out. People are saying 377 00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:41,800 Speaker 1: that social justice will be off everyone everybody's mind Orlando 378 00:22:42,119 --> 00:22:45,440 Speaker 1: with these jerseys. It doesn't go away. The reason I'm 379 00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:48,359 Speaker 1: passionate and excited about it is it gives a voice 380 00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:51,119 Speaker 1: to the voiceless. It also gives guys a chance to 381 00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:54,240 Speaker 1: shine a light on something they are passionate about, otherwise 382 00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:57,200 Speaker 1: that they may not have been given a chance to 383 00:22:57,240 --> 00:23:08,119 Speaker 1: express themselves. Yes, those poor downtrodden professional basketball players. Heart 384 00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:11,040 Speaker 1: has to go out to them, But again I come 385 00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:15,000 Speaker 1: back to this, it's more damaging than you think to 386 00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:19,280 Speaker 1: a society as a whole. It is we need that escape. 387 00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:22,600 Speaker 1: Some of what I hear more than anything right now? 388 00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:25,440 Speaker 1: Is I feel surrounded? Are we surrounded? Do we have anything? 389 00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:29,439 Speaker 1: Are we surrounded? And that's why they do it. You 390 00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:34,280 Speaker 1: are kind of surrounded. Turn off the television set, all right, 391 00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:37,920 Speaker 1: I have a great new discovery. You see this thing 392 00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:40,560 Speaker 1: in my ear right here? This is an earpiece that's 393 00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:43,560 Speaker 1: so our production staff can speak to me throughout the show. 394 00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:45,720 Speaker 1: Not only do I have this in for an hour 395 00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:48,080 Speaker 1: every night while I do I'm right with you, I 396 00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:50,719 Speaker 1: have another set that's in for three hours a day 397 00:23:50,760 --> 00:23:53,720 Speaker 1: while I do my amazing Jesse Kelly radio show. What 398 00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:57,040 Speaker 1: do you think my ears feel like after that? Well, 399 00:23:57,080 --> 00:24:00,959 Speaker 1: here's a problem. When I'm walking around eat earbuds in 400 00:24:01,640 --> 00:24:06,080 Speaker 1: because I consume audio all the time, whether it be music, podcast, 401 00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:09,640 Speaker 1: radio shows. I just love it. I finally found some 402 00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:13,240 Speaker 1: earbuds that feel great in my ear and sound good. 403 00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:15,399 Speaker 1: I can get off the air after doing four hours 404 00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:18,399 Speaker 1: of media every day and pop in my Racon earbuds. 405 00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:22,359 Speaker 1: Sounds like a million bucks. I highly recommend them, and 406 00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:24,800 Speaker 1: they're like half the price of all the other high 407 00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:29,080 Speaker 1: end ones. Go to buy raycon dot com slash Jesse 408 00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:32,359 Speaker 1: and when you do that, you actually get fifteen percent 409 00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:35,359 Speaker 1: off the already great price and the just these tiny 410 00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:39,320 Speaker 1: little things, They're awesome by raycon dot Com. Slash Jesse 411 00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:48,680 Speaker 1: highly recommend it. We'll be bad joining me now. Our 412 00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:51,560 Speaker 1: friend from Blaze TV. Her show is The News and 413 00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:56,480 Speaker 1: Wyatt Matters, Sarah Gonzalez. Sarah I opened up talking about 414 00:24:56,920 --> 00:24:59,919 Speaker 1: I don't like how we've breathed right past the law 415 00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:06,080 Speaker 1: lockdowns into civil unrest, rampant civil unrest, and nobody's taking 416 00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:09,040 Speaker 1: into account the fact that we have locked people in 417 00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:12,480 Speaker 1: their homes for a long time, and maybe just maybe 418 00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:15,720 Speaker 1: that's causing some of the anger we're seeing out there. 419 00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:19,679 Speaker 1: Is that is this never going to be discussed? Unfortunately, No, 420 00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:22,760 Speaker 1: I don't believe it will be discussed because in order 421 00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:25,520 Speaker 1: to discuss that, you would have to have local government 422 00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:29,520 Speaker 1: officials who would be willing to admit that they perhaps 423 00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:33,680 Speaker 1: made a knee jerk reaction in their response to the coronavirus. 424 00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:36,480 Speaker 1: And I just don't see that happening, especially with you know, 425 00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:38,760 Speaker 1: you and I both live in Texas, especially with we 426 00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:42,639 Speaker 1: see Governor Greg Abbott. He's not even He's going further 427 00:25:42,800 --> 00:25:45,439 Speaker 1: and further and further with his mandates, even as we 428 00:25:45,560 --> 00:25:49,560 Speaker 1: see that the death rate and the hospitalizations. We see 429 00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:53,000 Speaker 1: that going down. We still see the government ratcheting up 430 00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:56,880 Speaker 1: their control efforts in this virus. So I don't think 431 00:25:56,920 --> 00:25:58,800 Speaker 1: that we can talk about that because I don't think 432 00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:00,640 Speaker 1: we can get the government to it that they've done 433 00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:03,280 Speaker 1: anything wrong in the handling of this in the first place. 434 00:26:04,800 --> 00:26:07,280 Speaker 1: What happened to Greg Abbott? Or was he always this way? 435 00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:08,920 Speaker 1: I mean, look, I've been a Greg g Abbott fan. 436 00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:11,080 Speaker 1: I still think I might be, but I feel like 437 00:26:11,119 --> 00:26:15,720 Speaker 1: he's lost his freaking mind. What happened to him? Yeah? Unfortunately, 438 00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:18,720 Speaker 1: I think that he caved under the pressure. I think 439 00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:22,480 Speaker 1: that he caved to the people who are using faux science, 440 00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:25,480 Speaker 1: and I think that he caved to the fear instead 441 00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:27,600 Speaker 1: of looking at all of the facts, not just some 442 00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:31,920 Speaker 1: of them. I also think, in hindsight, I can see 443 00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:34,399 Speaker 1: now that a little bit of Greg Abbott has always 444 00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:37,840 Speaker 1: just been kind of satisfying what the people want him 445 00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:40,879 Speaker 1: to do in that particular moment, and not necessarily, as 446 00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:44,200 Speaker 1: you know, trying to stand as a principled ideologue. And 447 00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:45,840 Speaker 1: I think that we're seeing that more and more with 448 00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:48,920 Speaker 1: Greg Abbott. I'm very disappointed as well. I have been 449 00:26:49,359 --> 00:26:52,600 Speaker 1: a very very big advocate of Greg Abbott that I 450 00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:55,200 Speaker 1: can't tell you, especially with our friend had Praydor now 451 00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:57,679 Speaker 1: throwing his hat in the running, I can't tell you 452 00:26:57,720 --> 00:26:59,399 Speaker 1: for sure that I would that I would vote for 453 00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:02,880 Speaker 1: Greg Abbott. Done. Oh, I'm voting for Chad pray Through. 454 00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:04,800 Speaker 1: I promise you that much. If the man's on the ballot, 455 00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:09,159 Speaker 1: I'll promise you that. Now, why aren't they listening? You 456 00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:11,640 Speaker 1: and I have had this talk a million times over, 457 00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:14,200 Speaker 1: but surely they can see what we're seeing now, Sarah. 458 00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:16,760 Speaker 1: I mean, we can't act like all this anger and 459 00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:19,560 Speaker 1: pulling down statues and looting and Bernie. We can't sit 460 00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:22,680 Speaker 1: and pretend like all this is about George Floyd. Come on, now, 461 00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:26,800 Speaker 1: this is a society that was angry and lonely. And 462 00:27:26,800 --> 00:27:29,440 Speaker 1: while it doesn't affect me that much because I hate everybody, 463 00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:33,840 Speaker 1: I know what affects other people not being able to mingle. Yeah, 464 00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:35,959 Speaker 1: I mean, you're right, And I think that the greatest 465 00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:38,639 Speaker 1: evidence of it not being about George Floyd anymore is 466 00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:41,640 Speaker 1: you know that they're tearing down statues of Frederick Douglas. 467 00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:46,159 Speaker 1: I think that in itself it just speaks volumes about 468 00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:48,200 Speaker 1: what this is really about, and it is. It's pent 469 00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:50,760 Speaker 1: up anger. But I think that not only is it 470 00:27:50,840 --> 00:27:53,239 Speaker 1: being stoked by the coronavirus, it's also being stoked by 471 00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:56,200 Speaker 1: the left, who is using this to tell people that 472 00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:59,200 Speaker 1: they are they're entitled to do these things they are, 473 00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:01,679 Speaker 1: you know, that they should be doing these things, that 474 00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:04,160 Speaker 1: it's okay to feel anger this way. And so you've 475 00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:06,160 Speaker 1: not only got this virus, and you've got these people 476 00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:08,840 Speaker 1: who have been locked down, they're out of jobs, they're frustrated, 477 00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:11,760 Speaker 1: they have pent up aggression. You've got an entire party 478 00:28:11,800 --> 00:28:14,520 Speaker 1: of an entire political party, who is making excuses for 479 00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:16,760 Speaker 1: these people, and who is telling them not only is 480 00:28:16,800 --> 00:28:20,080 Speaker 1: it okay, but that really it should be happening. They 481 00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:22,560 Speaker 1: should be angry, they should be taking to the streets, 482 00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:25,120 Speaker 1: not just in peaceful protests, but in rioting as well. 483 00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:27,400 Speaker 1: And so I think that now that they feel emboldened 484 00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:31,359 Speaker 1: by the whole entire Democrat Party, you know, there's no 485 00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:34,240 Speaker 1: stopping them. I mean, who is going to stop when 486 00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:37,000 Speaker 1: they've got an entire party, they've got lawmakers, they've got 487 00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:40,280 Speaker 1: leaders in America who are making excuses for them. It's 488 00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:44,640 Speaker 1: truly truly scary times that we live in right now. Sarah, 489 00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:47,160 Speaker 1: I will tell you, it's been hard on my kids, 490 00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:51,360 Speaker 1: especially my oldest. And my kids are well adjusted, fine kids, 491 00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:52,959 Speaker 1: I mean as well adjusted as you can be with 492 00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:54,960 Speaker 1: me as your father. And it's not as if they're 493 00:28:55,000 --> 00:28:57,960 Speaker 1: losing their frigging minds. But I've seen it affect them 494 00:28:58,080 --> 00:29:01,840 Speaker 1: big time. I can't believe not going back to school 495 00:29:01,960 --> 00:29:04,800 Speaker 1: and going to recess and getting in trouble and getting 496 00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:08,040 Speaker 1: dirty with your friends. I can't believe that's even being considered. 497 00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:11,320 Speaker 1: But Sarah, I'm telling you right now, it's coming. I 498 00:29:11,360 --> 00:29:13,600 Speaker 1: completely agree with you. And I actually was just reading 499 00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:15,239 Speaker 1: a story that's up at the Blaze dot com right 500 00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:18,240 Speaker 1: now about to have Florida school districts who are already 501 00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:21,400 Speaker 1: coming out and saying we will not support reopening in 502 00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:24,200 Speaker 1: the fall. They even released one of the teachers associations 503 00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:28,000 Speaker 1: released a statement saying that they would not support a 504 00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:32,040 Speaker 1: reopening of schools that put their students and employees at 505 00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:35,200 Speaker 1: risk of illness, hospitalization, or death. And I have to wonder, 506 00:29:35,480 --> 00:29:38,320 Speaker 1: who are these idiots, who are these mons who are 507 00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:41,800 Speaker 1: teaching our young children, who have no idea that from 508 00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:44,520 Speaker 1: the day they set foot in that classroom, they were 509 00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:48,480 Speaker 1: exposing themselves to illness, every single day, the day that 510 00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:50,720 Speaker 1: the students set foot in the classroom, they are exposing 511 00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:54,600 Speaker 1: themselves to all sorts of illness, most of which are 512 00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:58,360 Speaker 1: a lot more severe in the younger population. So I 513 00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:01,360 Speaker 1: have to wonder, who are these teachers, where are they 514 00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:04,480 Speaker 1: getting their information, why are they teaching our young people? 515 00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:06,560 Speaker 1: And you know, at the end of the day, it 516 00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:08,920 Speaker 1: is really sad because I think that our children in 517 00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:12,480 Speaker 1: this generation are going to have some devastating consequences of 518 00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:14,160 Speaker 1: being locked up for this amount of time if we 519 00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:17,760 Speaker 1: don't get these schools open. No, I agree, Sarah. I 520 00:30:17,840 --> 00:30:20,080 Speaker 1: also talked a little bit about sports tonight, and I 521 00:30:20,120 --> 00:30:22,520 Speaker 1: don't know what kind of sports you watch, ballet or 522 00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:25,160 Speaker 1: whatever it may be, but I like sports, but you 523 00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:29,040 Speaker 1: people who don't. I think sports are an important outlet 524 00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:31,320 Speaker 1: for the country, and that now that the Left has 525 00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:33,760 Speaker 1: taken over that too, and every athlete has to be 526 00:30:33,840 --> 00:30:35,840 Speaker 1: an activist and every league has to put it out 527 00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:38,680 Speaker 1: a statement. I really genuinely think it has a negative 528 00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:42,320 Speaker 1: effect on the country as a whole. I would completely agree, 529 00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:45,480 Speaker 1: and I would love to see, hopefully this year. I'm 530 00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:48,880 Speaker 1: hoping this year, but it actually hits all of these 531 00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:51,920 Speaker 1: sports organizations in the pocket book because I think that 532 00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:56,640 Speaker 1: we've we've seen it not happen in the past, although 533 00:30:56,680 --> 00:30:59,160 Speaker 1: we do have ESPN who you see them more and 534 00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:01,880 Speaker 1: more they focus on social justice topics. The more they 535 00:31:01,880 --> 00:31:05,000 Speaker 1: focus on political topics, the lower their ratings go. You 536 00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:06,920 Speaker 1: would think that they would learn from that, that they don't. 537 00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:10,200 Speaker 1: They keep doubling down. I'm hoping that sports finally learns 538 00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:13,440 Speaker 1: in the same way that once it finally affects them 539 00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:16,200 Speaker 1: in their pocketbook, that they will finally step back and say, Okay, 540 00:31:16,440 --> 00:31:19,080 Speaker 1: the people are actually watching this because they want an 541 00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:21,880 Speaker 1: escape from what's going on in real life, not because 542 00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:24,760 Speaker 1: they want every single sports figure to have a political 543 00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:28,120 Speaker 1: opinion about something. And hopefully then and only then will 544 00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:31,600 Speaker 1: the pendulum swing back and we can stop hearing what 545 00:31:31,680 --> 00:31:34,480 Speaker 1: all of our favorite sports figures have to say about 546 00:31:34,520 --> 00:31:37,600 Speaker 1: every social justice issue out there, because quite frankly, I 547 00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:39,719 Speaker 1: really don't care what they think about it. I just 548 00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:44,360 Speaker 1: want to watch them play. Well are they though? Are 549 00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:47,120 Speaker 1: they going to suffer financially because issue said, we have 550 00:31:47,280 --> 00:31:51,400 Speaker 1: failed on that time and time again. Either we're too lazy, 551 00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:54,280 Speaker 1: I've got to have my NFL, or we feel like 552 00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:56,160 Speaker 1: I hear this all the time from people on the right, 553 00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:59,479 Speaker 1: as if that's beneath us to stop doing something. And 554 00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:02,040 Speaker 1: I've frustrated, even though I've been guilty of it in 555 00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:05,840 Speaker 1: the past, I've been frustrated by people not being willing 556 00:32:05,960 --> 00:32:08,800 Speaker 1: to punish these people financially. Are we just gonna go 557 00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:11,200 Speaker 1: right back and say, oh, yes, Colin Kaepernick, go to 558 00:32:11,240 --> 00:32:15,320 Speaker 1: football for me. I mean, I'll tell you this much. 559 00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:18,680 Speaker 1: I did see a lot of people who and I 560 00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:21,520 Speaker 1: have to admit I'm guilty of it too. I still 561 00:32:21,640 --> 00:32:24,640 Speaker 1: watched the NFL last season. I couldn't stand the kneeling, 562 00:32:24,680 --> 00:32:27,440 Speaker 1: I couldn't stand the discussions about it, but I still 563 00:32:27,520 --> 00:32:30,520 Speaker 1: watched it, and I was very upfront and transparent about that. 564 00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:33,520 Speaker 1: I watched a little bit of the NBA. However, I, 565 00:32:33,720 --> 00:32:35,360 Speaker 1: along with a lot of people that I know, will 566 00:32:35,400 --> 00:32:37,440 Speaker 1: not be watching the NBA this season with their new 567 00:32:37,480 --> 00:32:40,720 Speaker 1: announcement to paint Black Lives Matter right on the arena, 568 00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:43,680 Speaker 1: to have social justice messages on the shirts. And I 569 00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:47,400 Speaker 1: think that the farther and farther that these professional sports 570 00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:50,600 Speaker 1: organizations go, I think that's when we'll start seeing it. 571 00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:53,240 Speaker 1: I think the NBA has already hit it. I think 572 00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:55,560 Speaker 1: that hopefully they have already hit their mark. I'm not 573 00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:57,520 Speaker 1: sure on the NFL though, I think that that is 574 00:32:57,560 --> 00:33:00,760 Speaker 1: going to still take some time. I mean, we'll see, 575 00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:03,920 Speaker 1: We'll see, because if they still have farther to go, 576 00:33:04,040 --> 00:33:07,200 Speaker 1: that means they haven't reached fall crazy level yet, so 577 00:33:07,240 --> 00:33:09,720 Speaker 1: they still got a little bit more room to grow. Now. 578 00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:12,120 Speaker 1: Don't get me wrong, I am a cynic and I 579 00:33:12,160 --> 00:33:14,200 Speaker 1: do believe that they will get there. But once they 580 00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:16,880 Speaker 1: get there, I have faith at the American people, we'll 581 00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:18,640 Speaker 1: just we'll throw out their hands and they'll be done 582 00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:23,040 Speaker 1: with it. The news and why it matters. Sara Gonzalez, 583 00:33:23,120 --> 00:33:29,200 Speaker 1: thank you so much, Bam, thank you. Well. Sports may 584 00:33:29,240 --> 00:33:32,440 Speaker 1: not be an outlet for you anymore, but ebbs sleep 585 00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:36,480 Speaker 1: can give you a sleep.

Joining me now is current Dean of 600 00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:36,040 Speaker 1: Business at Liberty University and former GOP Congressman Dave Bratt. 601 00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:38,920 Speaker 1: We haven't talked to the congressman in a while, congress Congressman. 602 00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:41,480 Speaker 1: Before we get into all this other garbage out here 603 00:34:41,560 --> 00:34:45,560 Speaker 1: right now, I'm genuinely curious. Having eaten in that cafeteria 604 00:34:45,600 --> 00:34:49,480 Speaker 1: a couple of times myself, one of the congressional cafeterias 605 00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:52,600 Speaker 1: out there, it had something you loved to eat. I'm 606 00:34:52,640 --> 00:34:54,759 Speaker 1: assuming what was your favorite thing there was that there, 607 00:34:54,800 --> 00:34:58,160 Speaker 1: like a chili mac or something. Yeah, yeah, there was. 608 00:34:58,239 --> 00:35:01,880 Speaker 1: There was their famous white beans, that's their one hundred 609 00:35:01,920 --> 00:35:05,120 Speaker 1: year historical thing. It was good assault in it and 610 00:35:05,200 --> 00:35:09,120 Speaker 1: then chili. And then your listeners may be interested to 611 00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:11,880 Speaker 1: know that my leadership and the Republicans never gave me 612 00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:15,080 Speaker 1: any money, and they wouldn't put me on any committee 613 00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:18,040 Speaker 1: because I would believe in free markets and you know, 614 00:35:18,480 --> 00:35:20,359 Speaker 1: America and all that kind of thing. And so the 615 00:35:20,400 --> 00:35:22,359 Speaker 1: only thing they could do, the only leverage they had, 616 00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:24,160 Speaker 1: they kicked me out of the dining room, the member's 617 00:35:24,200 --> 00:35:29,919 Speaker 1: dining room for a few weeks. How exactly does one 618 00:35:29,960 --> 00:35:32,120 Speaker 1: get kicked out of the dining room? Do they stop 619 00:35:32,200 --> 00:35:34,319 Speaker 1: you at the door with security? Did they tell you 620 00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:37,560 Speaker 1: you're not allowed to come back? Yeah? No, I made 621 00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:40,040 Speaker 1: a reservation my office. I said, hey, will you grabbed 622 00:35:40,040 --> 00:35:42,600 Speaker 1: me lunch with Congressman so and so? So They called 623 00:35:42,600 --> 00:35:44,799 Speaker 1: and they said they don't have any tables. So I 624 00:35:44,840 --> 00:35:52,720 Speaker 1: walked down there in the places empty. I'm so glad 625 00:35:52,719 --> 00:35:55,719 Speaker 1: I asked about this. Thank you, Congressman, and I must say, 626 00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:59,440 Speaker 1: white Bean souped. You really do look fast, look fantastic 627 00:35:59,480 --> 00:36:02,920 Speaker 1: for being ninety years old. But moving on, I have 628 00:36:03,040 --> 00:36:06,800 Speaker 1: been I've been a little bit, to put it, mildly 629 00:36:06,880 --> 00:36:10,640 Speaker 1: disheartened by what I've seen from congressional and Senate Republicans 630 00:36:10,719 --> 00:36:15,280 Speaker 1: recently when it comes to being unwilling or unable to 631 00:36:15,360 --> 00:36:20,040 Speaker 1: change the narrative nationally. I see so much of this congressman, 632 00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:22,239 Speaker 1: and I don't want to blast anybody by name, say 633 00:36:22,280 --> 00:36:24,680 Speaker 1: maybe personal friends of yours. But we got senators out 634 00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:27,160 Speaker 1: there talking well, I mean, maybe we should change the 635 00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:30,600 Speaker 1: conservative monuments and things like that. I'm fine with having 636 00:36:30,640 --> 00:36:33,280 Speaker 1: that conversation, but not at a time where you're burning 637 00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:36,560 Speaker 1: down cities. That's not a negotiation, that's a hostage situation. 638 00:36:38,320 --> 00:36:40,279 Speaker 1: Yeah right, I agree with you. You can name any 639 00:36:40,360 --> 00:36:42,600 Speaker 1: names you want. I'll probably name them with you. That's 640 00:36:42,600 --> 00:36:46,640 Speaker 1: why I got kicked out of the cafeteria. But it 641 00:36:46,880 --> 00:36:51,200 Speaker 1: is a serious issue. There is no messaging. I can 642 00:36:51,239 --> 00:36:56,319 Speaker 1: explain why. It's just self preservation when when you have 643 00:36:56,440 --> 00:37:00,719 Speaker 1: the entire media against you, which you do, right. I 644 00:37:00,840 --> 00:37:03,680 Speaker 1: had rallies and marches and protests in front of my house. 645 00:37:04,200 --> 00:37:07,719 Speaker 1: I was the most nondescript guy. I taught ethics and 646 00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:11,640 Speaker 1: economics for twenty years in college. Everybody liked me, and 647 00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:14,640 Speaker 1: then two years later year you know, blah blah blah, 648 00:37:14,680 --> 00:37:17,040 Speaker 1: every bad name in the book, and the press can 649 00:37:17,080 --> 00:37:20,560 Speaker 1: just be eight a new image. And everybody knows that 650 00:37:20,640 --> 00:37:24,600 Speaker 1: President Trump is the only guy who's got the bully 651 00:37:25,160 --> 00:37:29,080 Speaker 1: bullhorn loud enough to overwhelm the press, and so a 652 00:37:29,120 --> 00:37:31,200 Speaker 1: lot of the folks just know if they speak out, 653 00:37:31,320 --> 00:37:34,040 Speaker 1: it starts with, you know, in my case, with a 654 00:37:34,120 --> 00:37:37,120 Speaker 1: Washington Post, and then the local paper does a little 655 00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:38,960 Speaker 1: dance with them, and then the New York Times it 656 00:37:38,960 --> 00:37:41,640 Speaker 1: makes the headline, and then every smaller outlet covers it, 657 00:37:42,600 --> 00:37:46,400 Speaker 1: and you your toast. And so that's that's a little 658 00:37:46,400 --> 00:37:50,799 Speaker 1: bit of why. But that's because we haven't spoken out, 659 00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:53,960 Speaker 1: and we've already lost too much of the country because 660 00:37:54,160 --> 00:37:57,200 Speaker 1: we don't fight back, and the left just learned they 661 00:37:57,200 --> 00:37:59,080 Speaker 1: can get away with that kind of behavior. So we 662 00:37:59,800 --> 00:38:01,640 Speaker 1: got to step up and fight before we lose the 663 00:38:01,640 --> 00:38:06,840 Speaker 1: whole country. Why haven't we realized that? You realized it? 664 00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:09,520 Speaker 1: But why haven't more? Is it? Is it really that 665 00:38:09,719 --> 00:38:12,440 Speaker 1: intimidating to have pressed people, you know, holding the mic 666 00:38:12,480 --> 00:38:15,479 Speaker 1: in your face and screaming in your faces you walk 667 00:38:15,600 --> 00:38:17,959 Speaker 1: from your office down to the cafeteria, which you haven't 668 00:38:17,960 --> 00:38:22,000 Speaker 1: been kicked out of yet. You know that's that's not 669 00:38:22,080 --> 00:38:24,840 Speaker 1: the bad part. I enjoyed that part I loved. I 670 00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:26,880 Speaker 1: used to the press is all a bunch of thirty 671 00:38:26,920 --> 00:38:28,799 Speaker 1: year olds. I used to yell at them and say, 672 00:38:28,840 --> 00:38:30,920 Speaker 1: go study harder, right, you don't you don't know what 673 00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:34,520 Speaker 1: you're talking about. So I had fun with it, But 674 00:38:34,560 --> 00:38:39,880 Speaker 1: then the left they get pretty nasty, right, they start 675 00:38:39,960 --> 00:38:44,320 Speaker 1: going after your business friends and after your family, and 676 00:38:44,520 --> 00:38:48,239 Speaker 1: I got kids, and then they start, you know the 677 00:38:48,320 --> 00:38:52,720 Speaker 1: lengths they go to. I'm not exaggerating, right, they fight 678 00:38:53,040 --> 00:38:56,840 Speaker 1: really bad. They right now they're canceling people. That sounds 679 00:38:56,840 --> 00:39:00,319 Speaker 1: trivial until you lose your job from it, and friend 680 00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:02,560 Speaker 1: of your friend loses a job because they know you. 681 00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:06,840 Speaker 1: And then someone in the health industry loses their firm, 682 00:39:06,880 --> 00:39:10,480 Speaker 1: and then someone in the advertising industry loses their firm, 683 00:39:10,520 --> 00:39:12,480 Speaker 1: and then they can't you know. So that's what we're 684 00:39:12,480 --> 00:39:16,440 Speaker 1: talking about here. The uh, the Marxists, they have these 685 00:39:16,719 --> 00:39:19,960 Speaker 1: uh tricks of the trade they use and they fight 686 00:39:20,560 --> 00:39:23,680 Speaker 1: to win. They're taking real estate right in Seattle and 687 00:39:23,880 --> 00:39:27,839 Speaker 1: Hucky and University's Chicago. And then our side just writes 688 00:39:27,880 --> 00:39:31,360 Speaker 1: white papers and say the Left and contradicted themselves. Well duh, 689 00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:34,520 Speaker 1: you know, I mean we know that they're they're they're 690 00:39:34,600 --> 00:39:38,200 Speaker 1: taking ground and our side needs to fight back or 691 00:39:38,200 --> 00:39:42,880 Speaker 1: our culture will get canceled. Congressmen, I have this, I 692 00:39:42,880 --> 00:39:44,320 Speaker 1: don't know if you want to call it a theory, 693 00:39:44,400 --> 00:39:48,680 Speaker 1: a thought that conservatism has failed Look, it has government's 694 00:39:48,680 --> 00:39:51,680 Speaker 1: only growing for a hundred years. Conservatism has failed, and 695 00:39:51,719 --> 00:39:55,640 Speaker 1: its failed because there's no offensive mechanism in it. To 696 00:39:55,719 --> 00:39:58,040 Speaker 1: what you just talked about, there's just leave me alone, 697 00:39:58,080 --> 00:40:00,600 Speaker 1: Just leave me alone, Just leave me alone. Well that 698 00:40:00,680 --> 00:40:03,120 Speaker 1: doesn't work. If the hordes are trying to battle down 699 00:40:03,160 --> 00:40:09,120 Speaker 1: the gates, what is our offensive mechanism? What can we do? Yeah, 700 00:40:09,120 --> 00:40:13,480 Speaker 1: well we've got one offensive system and it's called President Trump. 701 00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:16,759 Speaker 1: And I think he got elected for that reason. Right, 702 00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:21,640 Speaker 1: He's the billionaire that is not political, he's not ideological 703 00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:24,480 Speaker 1: irony of ironies. He was probably, you know, kind of 704 00:40:24,520 --> 00:40:29,279 Speaker 1: a democrat from Manhattan. He had friends, very stripe, every background, 705 00:40:29,280 --> 00:40:32,720 Speaker 1: every whatever. Right, it's just a joke to be calling 706 00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:35,200 Speaker 1: this guy all the names in the book, right, racist, 707 00:40:35,200 --> 00:40:37,759 Speaker 1: its excess, it's just a joke. I mean, he might 708 00:40:37,800 --> 00:40:40,000 Speaker 1: be brash, but he's none of the above, none of 709 00:40:40,040 --> 00:40:44,600 Speaker 1: the other nasty stuff. And he fights like the left does. 710 00:40:45,080 --> 00:40:47,879 Speaker 1: He never backs down. He just wakes up every day 711 00:40:47,920 --> 00:40:50,480 Speaker 1: and goes and goes and goes. And we ought to 712 00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:54,399 Speaker 1: take a page ship from him his leadership because we're 713 00:40:54,400 --> 00:40:57,080 Speaker 1: fighting for something that's good, right, And so you know, 714 00:40:57,120 --> 00:40:59,799 Speaker 1: Tucker Carlson lately has also been on a role. He's 715 00:40:59,840 --> 00:41:03,640 Speaker 1: been and solid, and I think his analysis is right 716 00:41:03,680 --> 00:41:07,799 Speaker 1: that Judeo Christian tradition. Americans are basically nice people. They 717 00:41:07,880 --> 00:41:12,280 Speaker 1: cannot fathom what the CCP is right, an atheist totalitarian 718 00:41:12,800 --> 00:41:17,640 Speaker 1: Chinese regime. They cannot fathom who marks this are right? 719 00:41:17,680 --> 00:41:19,759 Speaker 1: If you threatened to fight back with China and it 720 00:41:19,840 --> 00:41:22,319 Speaker 1: might hurt their people, China says, what do you do 721 00:41:22,880 --> 00:41:24,800 Speaker 1: have at it? Right? We don't care if our people 722 00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:29,920 Speaker 1: suffer whatever. So you're fighting an asymmetric, imbalanced war against 723 00:41:30,040 --> 00:41:32,560 Speaker 1: enemies who are just evil, and that's what it is. 724 00:41:32,600 --> 00:41:36,040 Speaker 1: They are evil. We don't like saying that, but that's 725 00:41:36,160 --> 00:41:39,600 Speaker 1: We're fighting evil across the board, people that don't care 726 00:41:39,600 --> 00:41:42,400 Speaker 1: about innocent life. And now we got murders across Chicago 727 00:41:42,440 --> 00:41:46,080 Speaker 1: and New York City and shootings and it's pretty bad stuff. 728 00:41:46,080 --> 00:41:50,759 Speaker 1: And we better get our act together soon. Jeez. As 729 00:41:50,840 --> 00:41:52,680 Speaker 1: much as I love it that you're at Liberty University, 730 00:41:52,719 --> 00:41:55,320 Speaker 1: who might have to get you back to Congress. Former 731 00:41:55,320 --> 00:41:58,520 Speaker 1: Congressman Dave Bratt, Thank you, sir, I appreciate you. Hey, Jesse, 732 00:41:58,640 --> 00:42:03,919 Speaker 1: thanks for what you do. Thanks, brother, appreciate you. He's right, 733 00:42:04,880 --> 00:42:08,680 Speaker 1: let's grow up. You and I have had this talk before. 734 00:42:09,400 --> 00:42:12,560 Speaker 1: It's time to accept the nature of what we're facing. 735 00:42:13,120 --> 00:42:17,600 Speaker 1: You're not facing yourself with a slightly different political ideology. 736 00:42:18,120 --> 00:42:22,279 Speaker 1: You're facing somebody who wants to eat you alive. Let 737 00:42:22,360 --> 00:42:25,480 Speaker 1: us conduct ourselves as such. All right, we got a 738 00:42:25,560 --> 00:42:34,920 Speaker 1: chicken wing master. Hang on a couple quick notes before 739 00:42:34,920 --> 00:42:37,719 Speaker 1: we get to the chicken wing master. Allow me to 740 00:42:37,760 --> 00:42:40,279 Speaker 1: give you some wisdom you're going to carry from this 741 00:42:40,360 --> 00:42:43,160 Speaker 1: day to the rest of your life. The best side 742 00:42:43,400 --> 00:42:46,480 Speaker 1: with chicken wings is not carrots and celery. It's not fries, 743 00:42:46,520 --> 00:42:48,880 Speaker 1: it's not chips, it's none of these things. The best 744 00:42:48,920 --> 00:42:53,320 Speaker 1: side with chicken wings is garlic bread. Then when you're done, 745 00:42:54,040 --> 00:42:55,920 Speaker 1: you can take all the blue cheese or ranch and 746 00:42:55,960 --> 00:42:58,200 Speaker 1: the buffalo wing sauce it's all mixed together, and you 747 00:42:58,239 --> 00:43:00,560 Speaker 1: take the garlic bread and you saw up it all up, 748 00:43:00,560 --> 00:43:02,680 Speaker 1: and you just stuff it into your mouth and it's glorious. 749 00:43:02,719 --> 00:43:06,239 Speaker 1: That's one. Two. Everybody knows you have to agonize over 750 00:43:06,360 --> 00:43:09,719 Speaker 1: which wing to grab. Of course, the drumsticks are easiest 751 00:43:09,760 --> 00:43:12,440 Speaker 1: to eat, no question about it. You can go one 752 00:43:12,480 --> 00:43:14,279 Speaker 1: hand on a drumstick. You just do a little turn 753 00:43:14,320 --> 00:43:17,799 Speaker 1: thing and you eat the other ones more difficult to eat. 754 00:43:17,840 --> 00:43:19,520 Speaker 1: The meat's a little better, but then you have a 755 00:43:19,560 --> 00:43:21,360 Speaker 1: little bit in the middle and you're stuck trying to 756 00:43:21,360 --> 00:43:23,040 Speaker 1: stick your tongue to it, and you have to gnaw 757 00:43:23,080 --> 00:43:24,640 Speaker 1: through it, and if you're on a date, then you 758 00:43:24,719 --> 00:43:27,759 Speaker 1: look like an animal. This man, though, has solved that 759 00:43:27,800 --> 00:43:30,880 Speaker 1: little problem for us. The only way to eat a flat. 760 00:43:30,920 --> 00:43:34,400 Speaker 1: If you're doing any other way, you're wrong. Push down, 761 00:43:35,040 --> 00:43:46,800 Speaker 1: all right, say it, little meat, umbrella dit peace. That 762 00:43:47,000 --> 00:43:50,759 Speaker 1: man is a genius. All right.
