1 00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:05,480 Speaker 1: One of the most amazing things to me about the 2 00:00:05,559 --> 00:00:09,760 Speaker 1: left's meltdown on Donald Trump. They hate Trump worse than 3 00:00:09,760 --> 00:00:14,800 Speaker 1: they've ever hated any Republican, including Richard Nixon. Okay, maybe 4 00:00:14,840 --> 00:00:18,759 Speaker 1: that's an exaggeration I had carried away there. But part 5 00:00:18,760 --> 00:00:22,759 Speaker 1: of why they hate him is because they once loved him. 6 00:00:24,040 --> 00:00:28,280 Speaker 1: Donald Trump was beloved by the Democrats. They thought he 7 00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:31,760 Speaker 1: was cool. They put him in their movies, they put 8 00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:34,559 Speaker 1: him on their TV shows, they put him in their 9 00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:38,600 Speaker 1: rap songs. They thought he was the coolest cat ever. 10 00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:43,360 Speaker 1: Everybody did. He was ubiquitous. He was everywhere all the time. 11 00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:48,600 Speaker 1: Macaulay Culkin. Now, there he is, he's on screen. He halled. 12 00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:51,600 Speaker 1: There he is. He's on screen Saturday Night Live, he's hosting. 13 00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:56,560 Speaker 1: Then all of a sudden, because he's not saying exactly 14 00:00:56,600 --> 00:01:00,560 Speaker 1: what they want him to say, they hate him. Well, 15 00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:05,600 Speaker 1: guess what. That's also true of Elon Musk. The media 16 00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:10,280 Speaker 1: once loved Elon Musk. He was the electric vehicle guy. 17 00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:16,119 Speaker 1: He was the white guy with progressive business tendencies. They 18 00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:20,600 Speaker 1: once called him the Jesus Christ of our era. Credit 19 00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:24,000 Speaker 1: to MRC, the Media Research Center for this montage. 20 00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:26,319 Speaker 2: And I would argue that the new Jesus Christ of 21 00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:29,319 Speaker 2: our era are Steve Jobs and Elon Musk, and it's 22 00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:30,440 Speaker 2: important to have heroes. 23 00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:32,959 Speaker 3: The forty seven year old engineer has been called the 24 00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:35,680 Speaker 3: real life Tony Stark, better known as Iron Man. 25 00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:38,319 Speaker 4: Elon Musk aka real life Iron Man. 26 00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:39,920 Speaker 1: The guy is brilliant. 27 00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:42,560 Speaker 3: He is a genius, and at least for now, the 28 00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:45,200 Speaker 3: world is better off having Elon Muskt than not. 29 00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:47,960 Speaker 4: Elon Musk is one of the most interesting people in America, 30 00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:50,280 Speaker 4: in the world, and I guess in the. 31 00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:52,040 Speaker 1: Universe, Elon Musk is doing things. 32 00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 5: They may revolutionize transportation and climate change. 33 00:01:55,560 --> 00:02:00,480 Speaker 2: When somebody as staggeringly rich and staggeringly intelligent as Elon 34 00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:03,560 Speaker 2: Musk talks, people listen, has there ever been a car 35 00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:05,000 Speaker 2: salesman like Elon Musk? 36 00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:08,480 Speaker 6: Elon Musk is is I think is beyond a car salesman. 37 00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:11,080 Speaker 2: I mean, he's more like a a hero for a 38 00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:11,680 Speaker 2: lot of folks. 39 00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:13,960 Speaker 3: Just today we were given a glimpse of something of 40 00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:17,680 Speaker 3: a miracle at sea, or, as Elon Musk calls it. 41 00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:21,000 Speaker 6: Tuesday, let's talk about SpaceX Okate. 42 00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:23,560 Speaker 5: The launch this morning was glorious. 43 00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:24,680 Speaker 2: To be wonderful, out of this world. 44 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 5: Incredible images from the first all civilian orbit around Earth. 45 00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:29,440 Speaker 2: A huge win for Elon Musk. 46 00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:32,040 Speaker 1: It's an amazing development that's going on. 47 00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:34,040 Speaker 7: You got to give a lot of credit Elon Musk. 48 00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:36,000 Speaker 6: Elon Musk, he deserves a lot of credit. 49 00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:41,360 Speaker 1: HESLA founder Elon Musk says he knows the biggest threat 50 00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:43,480 Speaker 1: to humanity and he has a plan. 51 00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:47,519 Speaker 3: An immigrant to this country cemented his status as a 52 00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:52,200 Speaker 3: leader in science and technology whose name may indeed belong 53 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:57,000 Speaker 3: alongside those of Edison and Jobs. Put another way, Elon 54 00:02:57,120 --> 00:03:01,040 Speaker 3: Musk today showed the world how it's done. 55 00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:05,680 Speaker 1: Interestingly, I think the only two names you could put 56 00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:13,720 Speaker 1: alongside Musk would be Jobs and Edison. Jobs, who built 57 00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:20,320 Speaker 1: the world's largest company, who also revolutionized Walter Isaacson lays 58 00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:26,119 Speaker 1: them out seven fields, including retail. Steve Jobs transformed our 59 00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:32,079 Speaker 1: world with what he did, and he died too soon. 60 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:38,280 Speaker 1: Thomas Edison and his advancements, you know, the great Edison 61 00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:41,680 Speaker 1: advancement that he wasn't able to pull off. That was 62 00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:46,720 Speaker 1: his greatest regret. That could have also been transformative. He 63 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:54,160 Speaker 1: wanted to build modular homes, affordable modular homes to populate 64 00:03:55,240 --> 00:04:00,960 Speaker 1: the landscape. Now, those of you into the aesthetics of 65 00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:07,200 Speaker 1: design will cringe at me endorsing that concept. But they 66 00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:11,040 Speaker 1: don't have to be next door to you. The idea 67 00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:16,679 Speaker 1: of affordable functioning homes that could be put up quickly. 68 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:20,919 Speaker 1: He was looking at multiple composition materials and how exactly 69 00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:23,320 Speaker 1: to do this. There's We had a guy named I 70 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:27,240 Speaker 1: think it is Powelo Tierno. I could have his name wrong. 71 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:31,440 Speaker 1: Italian guy has a company called Boxable, and at that 72 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:33,720 Speaker 1: time I think they had forty units in production. Now 73 00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:36,200 Speaker 1: they have I think probably over a thousand. They could 74 00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:39,720 Speaker 1: end up revolutionizing affordable housing. And I don't mean the 75 00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:45,479 Speaker 1: government funded, overpriced, politically connected government housing. I mean the 76 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:49,680 Speaker 1: concept of housing at a price point for an entry 77 00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:56,000 Speaker 1: level home that is livable is a very exciting notion. 78 00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:58,800 Speaker 1: I mean to me, I would love for people to 79 00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:00,960 Speaker 1: be able to own their own home. I love the 80 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:04,839 Speaker 1: concept of these of these little homes that could be 81 00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:08,800 Speaker 1: dropped out on a ranch where some guy's got a 82 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:11,640 Speaker 1: you know, he's got however many acres, and he can 83 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:15,560 Speaker 1: drop these things out there for fifty grand or less apiece. 84 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:17,520 Speaker 1: You put a few of those out there, you can 85 00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:20,760 Speaker 1: make a bed and breakfast, you could have an event venue. 86 00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:24,360 Speaker 1: Those are not primary residences. But you know, when you 87 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:26,919 Speaker 1: go for a weekend out to a ranch for a destination, 88 00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:29,839 Speaker 1: wedding or whatever else, you don't need people to have 89 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:33,040 Speaker 1: anything other than running water in a place to sleep 90 00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:35,880 Speaker 1: in the controlled climate control inside. It doesn't need much 91 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:41,640 Speaker 1: space anyway. You look at what Elon has done. I mean, 92 00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:46,240 Speaker 1: think about this for a moment. He revolutionized the electric vehicle. 93 00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:47,960 Speaker 1: He didn't start the company, but by the time he 94 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:51,560 Speaker 1: came in, he changed it and he made production. He 95 00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:55,440 Speaker 1: made them the most valuable market cap wise car company 96 00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:58,919 Speaker 1: in the world. Overnight. They don't sell more units than 97 00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:01,080 Speaker 1: anybody else. They sell a for action of the units 98 00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:05,960 Speaker 1: of the Big three or Toyota or Honda for that matter. 99 00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:10,479 Speaker 1: But profitability and and and and people betting on the 100 00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:13,360 Speaker 1: com Yeah, it's pretty amazing what he's done. And some 101 00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:16,360 Speaker 1: of the things that the Tesla has as features full 102 00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:18,000 Speaker 1: self driving, he's the first one to come up with 103 00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:20,599 Speaker 1: that and actually put it into production. The criticism of 104 00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:23,760 Speaker 1: him is, yeah, well you promised it ten years ago. 105 00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:27,480 Speaker 1: Well they finally delivered, and gosh, dog, it's it's amazing. 106 00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:31,400 Speaker 1: How about Starlink, A buddy mine lives up in Colorado 107 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:35,800 Speaker 1: on the side of a mountain. He couldn't get internet connection, 108 00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:38,760 Speaker 1: have to drive into town to do work. He's got 109 00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:42,480 Speaker 1: a Starlink disc a little bigger than the laptop on 110 00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:46,080 Speaker 1: the on on your on your desk, and he drives 111 00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:49,080 Speaker 1: around the country with his family in an RV. They 112 00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 1: just he just unplugs it, puts in the RV. He 113 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:55,120 Speaker 1: has better internet than I'm probably doing the studio and 114 00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:57,039 Speaker 1: we got the good stuff. We got a pipe. He's 115 00:06:57,080 --> 00:06:59,600 Speaker 1: got as good as that driving around, driving around the country. 116 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:05,400 Speaker 1: Nobody talks about his boring technology. How about SpaceX, Sure 117 00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 1: there's lots of crashes, you know why because they're pushing boundaries. 118 00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:14,520 Speaker 1: How about neuralink? Nobody talks about that. How about what 119 00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:18,400 Speaker 1: he did for Twitter, changing our ability to communicate as 120 00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:24,840 Speaker 1: a nation freely and openly and not be blocked Michael 121 00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:32,800 Speaker 1: Berry Todd retail of Dane Krenshaw just keeps getting worse. 122 00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:37,920 Speaker 1: Let's start with his hot mic moment recently where he's 123 00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:43,679 Speaker 1: talking to a British reporter and he thinks that the 124 00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:48,160 Speaker 1: mic and camera are off and he starts making reference 125 00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:52,840 Speaker 1: to killing Tucker Carlson. It's his odd behavior. Have you 126 00:07:52,880 --> 00:08:04,640 Speaker 1: ever met Tucker now he's the work correctly. I see him, 127 00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:09,800 Speaker 1: I'll killing okay as he grits his teeth. Maybe some 128 00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:11,760 Speaker 1: people aren't cut out for this job, or maybe some 129 00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:15,560 Speaker 1: people feel well. Then we go to Tucker Carls and 130 00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:18,240 Speaker 1: when asked about this, and he had this to say. 131 00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:21,520 Speaker 8: I don't know if you saw this, but someone had 132 00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:23,760 Speaker 8: put out a tweet saying Dan Crenshaw's pushing for this 133 00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:26,120 Speaker 8: bill because it includes a forty percent pay race for 134 00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:28,920 Speaker 8: member of Congress. And Dan Crenshaw had recently been complaining 135 00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:31,320 Speaker 8: that like, oh, we don't make enough money, We're like destitute. 136 00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:33,160 Speaker 8: I want to quote it exactly because it's just hilarious. 137 00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:35,000 Speaker 8: So he responds to this guy on X and he says, 138 00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:38,440 Speaker 8: you're flying piece of but hey, whatever gets you pathetic 139 00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:41,480 Speaker 8: bottom feeders, clickbait you in sell. So now, if you're 140 00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:44,640 Speaker 8: against Dan Crenshaw's spending bill, you're like an in sell 141 00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:45,000 Speaker 8: or something. 142 00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:45,840 Speaker 5: You don't have enough sex. 143 00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:46,479 Speaker 1: Yeah. 144 00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:51,760 Speaker 5: Dan Crenshaw obviously is not emotionally prepared to lead anything. 145 00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:54,400 Speaker 5: He's out of control, and I think that he's a 146 00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:56,720 Speaker 5: really volatile person. I hope he gets help. I mean that, 147 00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:58,640 Speaker 5: but you know, he's also a pretty sinister person I 148 00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:02,360 Speaker 5: would say who's priority are not aligned with his party's voters, 149 00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:03,679 Speaker 5: but also have kind of nothing to do with the 150 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:05,480 Speaker 5: United States. I feel sorry for Dan Crunch. I've had 151 00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:07,679 Speaker 5: conflict with Dan Cruncher. I felt like he was emotionally 152 00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:10,600 Speaker 5: out of control, and so I feel sorry for him. 153 00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:13,000 Speaker 5: But I also think it's not just him, it's a 154 00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:15,920 Speaker 5: lot of leadership of that party just doesn't put the 155 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:17,480 Speaker 5: United States first at all. 156 00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:23,480 Speaker 1: So Dan Crenshaw goes on with Piers Morgan and unravels further. 157 00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:30,319 Speaker 7: Dan's ongoing spat with Tucker Culson. Now this began when 158 00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:33,319 Speaker 7: there was you were called off You thought you're off camera, 159 00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:36,080 Speaker 7: still on Mike, saying he was the worst person We've 160 00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:37,719 Speaker 7: talked a lot on Twitter. If I ever meet him, 161 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:40,520 Speaker 7: I'm going to effing kill him. You then said I 162 00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:43,160 Speaker 7: think anyone seriously watching him being honest with themselves knows 163 00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:45,840 Speaker 7: that was hyperbole. He said in private, and though Tucker 164 00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:48,920 Speaker 7: doesn't to worry about, I've absolutely no desire to harm him. 165 00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:53,160 Speaker 7: And then Tucker went on a podcast with commentator Chris 166 00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:56,560 Speaker 7: Josephs on his podcast and he said, this about you. 167 00:09:57,760 --> 00:10:01,400 Speaker 5: Tell us about my all time favorite member of Congress. 168 00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:03,199 Speaker 5: Dan Crenshaw.

Yeah, 174 00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:17,360 Speaker 5: because he used to be like a right wing darling 175 00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:19,439 Speaker 5: like he was, you know, the with the Navy Seals. 176 00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:21,760 Speaker 5: I think earlierly on I don't again with me.

Tucker 182 00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:38,319 Speaker 6: has no actual substance, right, He's been attacking me since 183 00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:41,920 Speaker 6: twenty twenty two when he became obsessed with me. I 184 00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:48,520 Speaker 6: live rent free in that little mongrel's head, and uh yeah, 185 00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:50,520 Speaker 6: you know, people ask me all the time, why does 186 00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:51,760 Speaker 6: he hate you? And I'm like, you know, the fact 187 00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:54,800 Speaker 6: that you can't answer that question is indicative of the 188 00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:57,840 Speaker 6: fact that he has no actual substance. See, I can 189 00:10:57,880 --> 00:10:59,640 Speaker 6: tell you why. Meddi disagrees with me. I can tell 190 00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:01,600 Speaker 6: you why he doesn't like me. At least he at 191 00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:03,920 Speaker 6: least he has you know, I disagree with them all, 192 00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:06,360 Speaker 6: but at least he has things that he disagrees with 193 00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:11,640 Speaker 6: me on. Tucker never actually says anything. It's just it's 194 00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:15,600 Speaker 6: just insults. He'll use my war wound to insult me. 195 00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:18,240 Speaker 6: He's a He's a weird bad guy. I mean, people 196 00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:24,280 Speaker 6: should people people should not be uh tricked by his 197 00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:28,120 Speaker 6: his his supposed stance against the DC insider elites, right 198 00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:30,560 Speaker 6: because he literally is that.

You know it's funny females from Tucker 201 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:38,640 Speaker 6: Carlson to Hunter Biden asking Hunter Biden for help to 202 00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:41,360 Speaker 6: get Tucker's son into Georgetown. You know, Tucker's a silver 203 00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:43,640 Speaker 6: spoon fed trust fund baby, went to board you know 204 00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:46,920 Speaker 6: boarding school guy. It is the epitome of the DC 205 00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:49,520 Speaker 6: elites who pretends to fight against it in order to 206 00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:51,839 Speaker 6: to to corner a market in the media. 207 00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:56,840 Speaker 1: Of course, we've seen that Navy Coe Eddie Gallagher viral 208 00:11:57,160 --> 00:12:02,040 Speaker 1: video where he has some very very powerful things to say, 209 00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:04,959 Speaker 1: not nice about Dan Crenshaw on what he accuses. Dan 210 00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:08,959 Speaker 1: Crenshaw of David Goggins's beloved guest on this show, has 211 00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:13,480 Speaker 1: had some things to say after Crenshaw insulted him. There 212 00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:19,680 Speaker 1: is a comment going viral amongst conservatives by a fellow 213 00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:23,280 Speaker 1: named John lefeff. He is a former investment banker of 214 00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:29,600 Speaker 1: some repute. He's an author, and he is a very 215 00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:34,680 Speaker 1: well read Twitter personality. His commentary often makes its way 216 00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:37,880 Speaker 1: onto my desk even before I get to my subscription 217 00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:42,440 Speaker 1: of him. And he posted the following two days ago 218 00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:46,440 Speaker 1: and it has millions of views. He said, I spent 219 00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:49,680 Speaker 1: two hours with Dan Crenshaw. To keep it simple, he 220 00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:53,600 Speaker 1: hates Donald Trump, hates him to the core. He said 221 00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:58,840 Speaker 1: it point blank. If you support Trump, MAGA, Maha America First, 222 00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:01,719 Speaker 1: or the Republican Party, no this Dan Crenshaw is your 223 00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:04,640 Speaker 1: enemy and you should never vote for him again. The 224 00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:08,480 Speaker 1: fact that he's also a Charlatan huckster, bully, blowhard, pseudo 225 00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:16,280 Speaker 1: policy intellectual and sanctimonious, well, I can't say it is coincidental. 226 00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:18,800 Speaker 1: John lefev tell us what you really think? 227 00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:22,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, well, thanks for having me. 228 00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:25,320 Speaker 1: You know, what was the occasion upon which you spent 229 00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:26,720 Speaker 1: two hours with Dan Crenshaw. 230 00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:29,800 Speaker 4: I've seen him at a couple of times. I've seen him 231 00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:32,040 Speaker 4: at a corporate event. I've seen him at a fundraiser, 232 00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:36,800 Speaker 4: and he came to a podcast studio I was at 233 00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:39,439 Speaker 4: for a couple of hours and we were just hanging out. 234 00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:43,400 Speaker 4: So there have been several encounters that have led me 235 00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:47,600 Speaker 4: to form my opinion. And the clips you played summon 236 00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:50,440 Speaker 4: up perfectly right. He's a neo conn, he's a bully, 237 00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:54,360 Speaker 4: he's a blowhard, he's sanctimonious. You can listen to how 238 00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:57,839 Speaker 4: condescending and smug he is in all of those clips. 239 00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:01,080 Speaker 4: But what I saw was it it's not just say 240 00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:06,040 Speaker 4: Tucker Carlson that he hates he hates his constituents. It's 241 00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:10,720 Speaker 4: like his hatred for Donald Trump. He's now become another 242 00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:15,079 Speaker 4: one of these victims of this so called Trump derangement syndrome. 243 00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:17,320 Speaker 4: And as Tucker said, there have been a lot of 244 00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:20,760 Speaker 4: you know, Republicans, true conservatives, who have not liked to 245 00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:25,040 Speaker 4: stance on Ukraine or the fact that he's aligned himself 246 00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:29,840 Speaker 4: as a neocon. But he is even beyond that. He's 247 00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:34,120 Speaker 4: just seemingly completely unrattled. And when I saw him, he 248 00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:38,720 Speaker 4: seemed to hold his most serious disdain for the so 249 00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:44,520 Speaker 4: called January sixth insurrectionists, right, many of whom were veterans. 250 00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:49,880 Speaker 4: And I think it's fair to say. 251 00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:51,320 Speaker 1: That hold with me right there, John lefev is our guest. 252 00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:54,360 Speaker 1: We're going to dig deeper into them. He used the word, 253 00:14:54,400 --> 00:14:56,960 Speaker 1: and I did as well. Unraveling of Dan Crenshaw. I 254 00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:59,920 Speaker 1: want to come back to that word to Michael Barry Joe, 255 00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:05,520 Speaker 1: so damn shame, shame, It's a shame, It's I'm unraveling 256 00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:09,480 Speaker 1: if Dan Kinshaw continues with folks. I don't mean to 257 00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:11,720 Speaker 1: sound like a schoolmarm here, and I'm sure that's how 258 00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:15,280 Speaker 1: it comes across. I really do. We're going to talk 259 00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:18,000 Speaker 1: about whether Dan Crenshaw should continue to serve in the 260 00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:21,360 Speaker 1: United States Congress at your pleasure because he works for you. 261 00:15:22,040 --> 00:15:26,400 Speaker 1: We're going to talk about from now and the next primary, 262 00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:29,800 Speaker 1: which is less than a year away. We're going to 263 00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:32,560 Speaker 1: talk about his fitness for the job. Were talking about 264 00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:35,240 Speaker 1: what he has and hasn't done. Uh, we're going to 265 00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:40,200 Speaker 1: talk about stock trades, but we're going to talk about votes, statements, actions. 266 00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:43,880 Speaker 1: But I want to be very clear, and and I 267 00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:48,400 Speaker 1: say this often, but not often enough. You can criticize 268 00:15:48,440 --> 00:15:51,320 Speaker 1: Dan Crenshaw for a number of things, and I do, 269 00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:55,160 Speaker 1: and I'm extremely disappointed because I got behind him. I 270 00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:58,720 Speaker 1: believed in him, and I was wrong. I'm here to 271 00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:02,560 Speaker 1: say it. I was wrong. That being said, there is 272 00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:07,280 Speaker 1: no doubt that Dan Crenshaw served in war and lost 273 00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:11,160 Speaker 1: his eye, almost lost the other one in war. I 274 00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:15,520 Speaker 1: see people calling him making jokes about him losing an 275 00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:19,960 Speaker 1: eye in war. Do you have any idea, even if 276 00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:22,400 Speaker 1: you don't have a sense of decency, do you have 277 00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:26,400 Speaker 1: any idea how veterans look at that? What if he 278 00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:30,040 Speaker 1: had one leg with you? Ha? Hop around there, Crenshaw, 279 00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:33,680 Speaker 1: because you were wrong on an issue, criticize him for 280 00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:36,720 Speaker 1: what he does. There's so much of a body of work. 281 00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:39,600 Speaker 1: But when you go make in fun of a guy 282 00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:43,960 Speaker 1: for a wound he sustained in war, not only is 283 00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:48,360 Speaker 1: it wrong, you're actually helping him. You're driving people in 284 00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:52,240 Speaker 1: because what kind of monster are you that you're criticizing 285 00:16:52,240 --> 00:16:55,360 Speaker 1: the guy for that? Nobody then says, yeah, I'm going 286 00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:57,680 Speaker 1: to take your advice. Crenshaw's not a good congressman, because 287 00:16:57,680 --> 00:17:01,880 Speaker 1: he's not. He's a terrible congressman. He's the ultimate neo 288 00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:08,080 Speaker 1: con in Congress. This guy was involved supposedly in the 289 00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:11,720 Speaker 1: Security Committee and did nothing for border security, but couldn't 290 00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:16,119 Speaker 1: send enough money to Ukraine. John Lefev is our guest. 291 00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:19,480 Speaker 1: He put up a post that has received a lot 292 00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:21,920 Speaker 1: of attention that said, I spent two hours with Dan Crenshaw. 293 00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:25,000 Speaker 1: To keep it simple, he hates Donald Trump, hates him 294 00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:27,399 Speaker 1: to the core. He set at point blank. If you 295 00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:31,240 Speaker 1: support Trump, MAGA, Maha America First, or the Republican Party, 296 00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:34,080 Speaker 1: know this, Dan Crenshaw's your enemy and you should never 297 00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:38,639 Speaker 1: vote for him again. The fact that he's also a Charlottan, huckster, bully, blowhard, 298 00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:42,600 Speaker 1: pseudo policy intellectual and sanctimonious. Whether there's another term, I 299 00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:46,600 Speaker 1: can't say. It's coincidental, folks. Go take a look. We've 300 00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:49,480 Speaker 1: played it before. It's a ten minute clip. Eddie Gallagher 301 00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:53,640 Speaker 1: beloved Navy seal, And see what Eddie Gallagher says Dan 302 00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:56,600 Speaker 1: Crenshaw did to him a fellow seal behind his backs. 303 00:17:56,600 --> 00:17:59,240 Speaker 1: What Eddie says, I don't know. Go see what David 304 00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:04,439 Speaker 1: Goggins says about Dan Crenshaw. David Goggins, who came to 305 00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:08,840 Speaker 1: me pretty highly recommended from Marcus atrel and other uh well, 306 00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:13,040 Speaker 1: mostly from Marcus, a guy who people beloved. The guy's 307 00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:16,760 Speaker 1: beloved for who he is, and he gets into it 308 00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:19,560 Speaker 1: with Crenshaw. You start noticing these things you're adding up. 309 00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:23,200 Speaker 1: He's saying these horrible things about Tucker Carlson. Dan Crenshaw 310 00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:27,639 Speaker 1: is the common denominator here, John Lefev, let me ask you, 311 00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:31,159 Speaker 1: what did you get a sense from Crenshaw's comments? What 312 00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:36,200 Speaker 1: his bitterness related to Trump maga anyone who questions him. 313 00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:43,240 Speaker 4: Is I think it's the fact that he has a 314 00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:46,119 Speaker 4: chip on his shoulder, as you know. As I said, 315 00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:51,040 Speaker 4: he's this kind of pseudo intellectual, so condescending. When he 316 00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:56,199 Speaker 4: gets challenged on policy, he just gets angry and turns 317 00:18:56,200 --> 00:18:58,960 Speaker 4: into this bully and. 318 00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:04,200 Speaker 1: This blood and so again. 319 00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:07,919 Speaker 4: I'll go back to the term Trump derangement syndrome, you know, 320 00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:13,480 Speaker 4: because it's caused him to essentially abandon all of his principles, 321 00:19:13,520 --> 00:19:15,800 Speaker 4: or at least what we thought were his principles just 322 00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:17,879 Speaker 4: a few years ago. You know, the example I was 323 00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:21,600 Speaker 4: giving when I met with him, he was talking about 324 00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:27,440 Speaker 4: January sixth and referring to basically as a blanket statement 325 00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:31,080 Speaker 4: all of the so called insurrectionists as many of whom 326 00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:37,000 Speaker 4: were veterans as criminals, and we all know that most 327 00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:41,560 Speaker 4: of those people were railroaded by corrupt courts where they 328 00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:44,320 Speaker 4: saw one hundred percent conviction rates, or they were given 329 00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:50,399 Speaker 4: plea bargains facing hard decades in prison and victims of 330 00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:54,320 Speaker 4: two tier justice. In light of how BLM and other 331 00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:58,480 Speaker 4: protesters and were treated around the same time, Crunshot did 332 00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:04,640 Speaker 4: not care because he is so blinded by his arrogance 333 00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:08,320 Speaker 4: and the chip on his shoulder and his hatred for Trump. 334 00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:15,720 Speaker 4: John There's another clip there when he was asked about 335 00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:19,240 Speaker 4: it if the Intel agencies had coordinated censorship programs with 336 00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:22,560 Speaker 4: social media companies. Not only did he deny it and 337 00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:25,760 Speaker 4: take the side of the deep state, he belittled the 338 00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:28,160 Speaker 4: hell out of the guy who asked him a simple, 339 00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:31,639 Speaker 4: fare honest question. He just does not have the temperament 340 00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:32,440 Speaker 4: to serve. 341 00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:36,680 Speaker 1: I fear it's more than that, you know. I think 342 00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:40,560 Speaker 1: of the case of Adam Kin Singer and how disgraced 343 00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:42,600 Speaker 1: he was when he stepped down because he knew he 344 00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:46,959 Speaker 1: couldn't win reelection. There's this sort of Liz Cheney level 345 00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:50,800 Speaker 1: of entitlement and anger, and I would love to say 346 00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:54,840 Speaker 1: that it's just that he's not emotionally capable of this 347 00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:57,240 Speaker 1: because he has a hot temper. I think it's more 348 00:20:57,280 --> 00:20:59,800 Speaker 1: than that. I think it's an arrogance. And this is 349 00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:03,679 Speaker 1: the ultimate neo con arrogance. I saw this with the 350 00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:06,160 Speaker 1: people who came out for George P. Bush. I saw 351 00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:09,200 Speaker 1: this with the people who supported Nicki Haley in Texas. 352 00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:15,040 Speaker 1: A bitterness, a bitterness George Conway type bitterness. The folks 353 00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:17,679 Speaker 1: at NRO, some of the folks at NRO, the folks 354 00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:21,600 Speaker 1: at the Bullward Jonah. It's all these folks that feel like, look, 355 00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:24,639 Speaker 1: I'm the true Conservative. I wear the right shoes, I 356 00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:27,320 Speaker 1: wear the right suit, I'm in the position of Congress. 357 00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:29,760 Speaker 1: Who are y'all to question me? You don't understand why 358 00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:32,480 Speaker 1: we have to always be at war? And I find 359 00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:35,440 Speaker 1: it to be this just sense of great entitlement and 360 00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:36,959 Speaker 1: disdain for the rest of us. 361 00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:43,879 Speaker 4: He hates his constituents, plain and simple. And the interesting 362 00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:46,560 Speaker 4: thing about my tweet, which as you said, now has 363 00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:51,080 Speaker 4: you know, millions of views and four thousand comments. If 364 00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:53,320 Speaker 4: you go through the comments, they're filled. 365 00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:54,000 Speaker 5: You know. 366 00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:57,800 Speaker 4: He doesn't just have altercations with high profile people like 367 00:21:57,880 --> 00:22:01,399 Speaker 4: Tucker Carlson, he has confrontations with people like meat or 368 00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:04,680 Speaker 4: his constituents. So the comments in that tweet are filled 369 00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:08,640 Speaker 4: with thousands of people saying exactly the same thing, regular 370 00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:15,320 Speaker 4: people with no agendas, and Dan Crenshaw just dismisses them 371 00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:17,920 Speaker 4: with such arrogance and disregard. 372 00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:26,320 Speaker 1: It is extraordinarily disappointing because I think, on paper, this 373 00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:28,959 Speaker 1: was a guy who could have been a great leader. 374 00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:31,960 Speaker 1: He is smart. I know the guy very well. He's 375 00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:36,760 Speaker 1: whip smart, he presents well, he has a great story. 376 00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:41,040 Speaker 1: But somewhere along the way they brought him into the 377 00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:45,680 Speaker 1: circle and I feel like he cut a deal and 378 00:22:45,880 --> 00:22:48,800 Speaker 1: that deal was for the deep state. That deal was 379 00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:54,600 Speaker 1: for the neocons and everyone else that it's this sort 380 00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:57,120 Speaker 1: of Jeb Bush hatred of the base. It's the Mitt 381 00:22:57,200 --> 00:23:00,760 Speaker 1: Romney hatred of the base. It's all for the same reasons. 382 00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:05,080 Speaker 1: Who were y'all y'all shouldn't be participating. John Lefev, you 383 00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:09,199 Speaker 1: made time for us on very short notice. I appreciate that. 384 00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:11,240 Speaker 1: We would love to have you back. He's a great 385 00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:14,399 Speaker 1: follow on Twitter, folks, Thank you, my man, Thank you 386 00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:14,880 Speaker 1: very much. 387 00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:15,600 Speaker 4: Pick fit. 388 00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:19,359 Speaker 1: All right, check him out on Twitter.

He's an interesting fellow 391 00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:31,119 Speaker 1: and he's got a great post up right now about 392 00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:34,680 Speaker 1: things I've learned that I wish I knew at eighteen 393 00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:40,000 Speaker 1: that is worth your reading. Again, it's John J O 394 00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:44,440 Speaker 1: h N. Lefev fru. 395 00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:51,000 Speaker 4: I had a fine Michael Barry. 396 00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:56,240 Speaker 1: Well. Of course, that signals the close of our week together. 397 00:23:56,359 --> 00:24:01,160 Speaker 1: One final segment bittersweet because it's always good to spend 398 00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:03,720 Speaker 1: some time with the family. But I love what I do, 399 00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:06,320 Speaker 1: and I hope you enjoy being here with us. If 400 00:24:06,359 --> 00:24:10,840 Speaker 1: you missed anything this week, even either that being on 401 00:24:11,280 --> 00:24:15,240 Speaker 1: this the evening show or our morning show, which we 402 00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:16,720 Speaker 1: do three hours in the morning and two hours in 403 00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:21,480 Speaker 1: the evening, you can always hear that on the podcast 404 00:24:21,520 --> 00:24:24,880 Speaker 1: wherever you get your podcasts. And we do a special 405 00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:29,280 Speaker 1: Saturday podcast that does not air on the traditional radio 406 00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:34,159 Speaker 1: per se that is only a podcast. This week a 407 00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:38,119 Speaker 1: very interesting story follow him, Howard Lutnik, who's the Commerce Secretary, 408 00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:41,000 Speaker 1: telling his story about nine to eleven in Canter Fitzgerald. 409 00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:43,520 Speaker 1: I think you'll find out to be very interesting. So 410 00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:45,320 Speaker 1: we're going to close the show with the clip that 411 00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:48,320 Speaker 1: we won't be able to play all of since we 412 00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:51,119 Speaker 1: were talking about Dan Crenshaw. I'm not trying to tell 413 00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:53,520 Speaker 1: you how to think about anything. I believe in putting 414 00:24:53,560 --> 00:24:55,760 Speaker 1: things out there, being transparent and letting you the audience, 415 00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:59,720 Speaker 1: decide for yourself. But Eddie Gallagher is a Navy Seal 416 00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:04,720 Speaker 1: who was arrested. He was in prison, and he says 417 00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:08,000 Speaker 1: that Dan Crenshaw not only didn't help this fellow seal, 418 00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:10,400 Speaker 1: but went out of his way to keep him there. 419 00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:13,160 Speaker 1: And as I told you earlier, David Goggins had said 420 00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:16,320 Speaker 1: some very nasty things about what Dan Crenshaw has done. 421 00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:19,760 Speaker 1: And Goggins is beloved not just by Navy seals, but 422 00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:23,280 Speaker 1: a lot of other people. There are other Navy seals 423 00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:27,120 Speaker 1: who are coming forward and seemingly less excited about Dan 424 00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:32,120 Speaker 1: Crenshaw than they once were. But you be the judge. 425 00:25:32,119 --> 00:25:36,120 Speaker 1: But here's what Eddie Gallagher, a Navy seal, a well 426 00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:38,840 Speaker 1: respected Navy seal, said about Dan Crenshaw. 427 00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:43,720 Speaker 2: Back in twenty nineteen, I was charged with war crimes, 428 00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:49,600 Speaker 2: premeditated murder, and I was facing life in prison without parole. 429 00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:54,280 Speaker 2: I sat in pre trial confinement for about nine months 430 00:25:55,040 --> 00:26:00,639 Speaker 2: before my actual trial. During that time, my wife Andrea 431 00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:04,960 Speaker 2: and brother Sean, along with a certain group of teammates 432 00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:09,119 Speaker 2: that I had, were doing everything they could to garner 433 00:26:09,160 --> 00:26:13,200 Speaker 2: support to get the truth out about what was going 434 00:26:13,240 --> 00:26:16,720 Speaker 2: on with me, to expose all the lies and corruption 435 00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:20,600 Speaker 2: around the UCMJ, and everything they were doing to put 436 00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:25,400 Speaker 2: me away for life. During that time, one name kept 437 00:26:25,400 --> 00:26:32,639 Speaker 2: popping up. That was Dan Crenshaw. My brother wanted to 438 00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:35,919 Speaker 2: go speak to him to try and get his support, 439 00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:40,639 Speaker 2: as well as my teammates who were doing everything they could, 440 00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:44,280 Speaker 2: and this was for obvious reasons. Dan was a prior seal. 441 00:26:46,359 --> 00:26:49,080 Speaker 2: They thought that this was a no brainer and that 442 00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:51,640 Speaker 2: he should get behind it, especially with all the information 443 00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:56,120 Speaker 2: that was coming out. So my brother, who lives near DC, 444 00:26:56,520 --> 00:26:59,320 Speaker 2: was going to Congress almost on a daily basis, knocking 445 00:26:59,359 --> 00:27:02,720 Speaker 2: on every congressman's door on both sides of the aisle, 446 00:27:03,359 --> 00:27:05,960 Speaker 2: trying to get them to look at what was really 447 00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:10,560 Speaker 2: going on and get their support. One of those individuals 448 00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:14,960 Speaker 2: was Dan Crenshaw. So my brother ended up talking to 449 00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:17,359 Speaker 2: his staff a couple times. They gave him the run around, 450 00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:21,080 Speaker 2: but that did not stop him. He kept going back 451 00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:24,080 Speaker 2: day after day and finally got a hold of Dan. 452 00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:28,320 Speaker 2: Dan told him he wanted to wait till the situation 453 00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:32,520 Speaker 2: developed before he made a decision, which got it. That 454 00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:39,760 Speaker 2: makes sense. Along with that, some of my teammates who 455 00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:42,399 Speaker 2: were on that deployment, who were on the ground the 456 00:27:42,480 --> 00:27:46,600 Speaker 2: day of the incident, went to one of Crenshaw's fundraising parties, 457 00:27:47,359 --> 00:27:50,119 Speaker 2: pulled him aside and spoke to him face to face, 458 00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:53,320 Speaker 2: told him what was happening to me was complete bs, 459 00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:55,439 Speaker 2: that it was chock full of lies, and that I 460 00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:59,359 Speaker 2: was getting screwed over. Dan told them he'll see what 461 00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:03,360 Speaker 2: he can do. Once my brother got a hold of Dan, 462 00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:07,160 Speaker 2: he said. Once my brother got a hold of him 463 00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:12,600 Speaker 2: a second time, Dan said that there wasn't enough information 464 00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:19,080 Speaker 2: or whatever. My brother got pretty frustrated and ended up 465 00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:22,919 Speaker 2: sending Dan a semi scathing email, calling him out for 466 00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:25,520 Speaker 2: being a politician and not being part of the brotherhood 467 00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:30,040 Speaker 2: and not supporting a fellow seal. Dan replied to him 468 00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:32,920 Speaker 2: and said that he would see what he could do. 469 00:28:34,640 --> 00:28:40,280 Speaker 2: So as my incarceration went on and it was latent 470 00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:45,280 Speaker 2: to my incarceration, when fifty congressmen ended up signing a 471 00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:49,040 Speaker 2: petition to release me from prison so I could properly 472 00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:52,560 Speaker 2: defend myself before trial. They basically were saying, give this 473 00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:55,560 Speaker 2: man the constitutional rights he deserves before he goes to 474 00:28:55,600 --> 00:29:00,720 Speaker 2: trial for his life. One congressman will not sign that 475 00:29:00,760 --> 00:29:06,160 Speaker 2: petition that was Dan Crenshaw. Instead, he decided to write 476 00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:10,120 Speaker 2: his own petition and pretty much say, I to keep 477 00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:13,360 Speaker 2: me in prison, but just to let me see my lawyers, 478 00:29:14,040 --> 00:29:15,960 Speaker 2: which were rights I should have already had in the 479 00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:21,160 Speaker 2: first place. At that point we decided to scrap asking 480 00:29:21,280 --> 00:29:24,720 Speaker 2: Dan for help and just move on. 481 00:29:26,280 --> 00:29:27,160 Speaker 1: No harm, no foul. 482 00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:32,360 Speaker 2: So obviously I went to trial, was found not guilty, 483 00:29:33,040 --> 00:29:38,120 Speaker 2: and ended up retiring out of the Navy. Not long 484 00:29:38,160 --> 00:29:40,720 Speaker 2: after I retired, I got invited to a turning point 485 00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:45,160 Speaker 2: event by nine Line. While at that event, I just 486 00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:48,240 Speaker 2: happened to run into Dan Crenshaw. I saw him coming 487 00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:51,920 Speaker 2: down the hallway, and I wanted to go up and 488 00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:53,680 Speaker 2: talk to him, just to get his thoughts on the 489 00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:56,680 Speaker 2: whole situation and why he did not support me, or 490 00:29:56,720 --> 00:29:59,560 Speaker 2: why he made up his own petition saying to keep 491 00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:02,120 Speaker 2: me in prison. I was not angry. I just wanted 492 00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:04,120 Speaker 2: to talk to him. Team got a team guy to 493 00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:07,640 Speaker 2: get his thoughts. He saw me from down the hall 494 00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:11,400 Speaker 2: and immediately looked down at the ground and speed walked 495 00:30:11,600 --> 00:30:14,920 Speaker 2: right past me, didn't even give me the time of day. 496 00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:18,840 Speaker 2: So at that point I was like, all right, you know, 497 00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:22,400 Speaker 2: he's a politician. I can kind of understand why he 498 00:30:22,400 --> 00:30:25,280 Speaker 2: didn't want to support if it would hurt him in 499 00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:29,040 Speaker 2: some capacity, So I just let it go. Not too 500 00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:33,640 Speaker 2: long after that, I obviously wrote the book, and when 501 00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:36,440 Speaker 2: the book came out, I went to Congress to do 502 00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:39,240 Speaker 2: a book signing for the fifty congressman who did support me, 503 00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:42,040 Speaker 2: who did sign that petition to get me out of prison. 504 00:30:43,080 --> 00:30:47,440 Speaker 2: While there, I was pulled aside by multiple congressmen and 505 00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:51,720 Speaker 2: was told that Dan Crenshaw was actively working against me 506 00:30:52,440 --> 00:30:55,080 Speaker 2: behind the scenes. He was going up to each of 507 00:30:55,080 --> 00:30:58,240 Speaker 2: those congressmen who were supporting me, telling him, telling them 508 00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:03,240 Speaker 2: not to support me, that I was guilty, and that 509 00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:05,720 Speaker 2: it was his community and they needed to butt out 510 00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:09,960 Speaker 2: and let him handle it. I don't know how much 511 00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:12,960 Speaker 2: of an arrogant statement that can be made that Dan 512 00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:18,360 Speaker 2: said it's his community. That's a joke, But regardless, after 513 00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:24,120 Speaker 2: hearing this, I was pretty disgusted. It's one thing to 514 00:31:24,320 --> 00:31:27,360 Speaker 2: not support me and just to back off and not 515 00:31:27,400 --> 00:31:32,240 Speaker 2: do anything, but Dan, knowing the full well the truth 516 00:31:32,320 --> 00:31:36,600 Speaker 2: about what was really going on, still went and tried 517 00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:39,880 Speaker 2: to get people not to support me and pretty much 518 00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:43,240 Speaker 2: try and put me away for life without parole. The 519 00:31:43,280 --> 00:31:45,080 Speaker 2: way I look at that is Dan was trying to 520 00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:50,040 Speaker 2: kill me. He was doing this for political favor. He 521 00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:55,520 Speaker 2: was doing this to climb the political ladder. The reason 522 00:31:55,520 --> 00:31:57,320 Speaker 2: I'm put this out right now, or I'm putting this 523 00:31:57,360 --> 00:32:01,880 Speaker 2: out right now, is because if Dank Crenshaw is willing 524 00:32:02,800 --> 00:32:07,560 Speaker 2: to lie to gain favor with other politicians, to climb 525 00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:12,720 Speaker 2: that political ladder and pretty much throw somebody away for life, 526 00:32:13,440 --> 00:32:15,880 Speaker 2: what do you think he's doing to the American people. 527 00:32:17,360 --> 00:32:24,360 Speaker 2: This man cannot stop lying. And I'll give you some examples. Recently, 528 00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:30,080 Speaker 2: Dan or David Goggins was on a podcast with my 529 00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:34,800 Speaker 2: good friend Aaron Singer. I listened to the podcast, I 530 00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:37,800 Speaker 2: listened to him, exposed Dan for who he really is. 531 00:32:41,360 --> 00:32:46,520 Speaker 7: He's nice, left for kill, Thank you, and good night
