Speaker 1 (00:00):
Up next, Luna Talks with Anna Paulina. Luna part of
the gang which no one wants the United States to
become Australia, at least I think they don't. So when
a video resurfaced of a potential COVID nineteen quarantine camp
in is Squally, Washington, you asked me to investigate, and boy,
there's a lot to unpack and uncover. So we did.
(00:22):
We discussed the rumors, the evidence, and how COVID nineteen
has ties to the increasing politicization of our military and
what that means for the future of our country. This
is Luna Talks with Ana Paulina. Hello everyone, and welcome
back to today's episode of Luna Talks with me, your
host on a Paulina Luna. We have two very interesting
(00:45):
things to cover today. One was actually at the request
of the listeners. And yes, as some of you may know,
I actually do do pulling for episodes and content you
want me to cover from time to time, and that's
actually something that I do on my Instagram, So if
you follow me there, that's at real. Anna Paulina, make
sure you check my stories because usually about a couple
(01:06):
of days prior I'll actually ask you what do you
guys want me to cover, especially in trending news cycle.
So the first one I will be covering is what
is happening in Nisqually, Washington in regards to the rumors
of a COVID nineteen quarantine camp. And also too, I
will be covering updates with Lieutenant Colonel Sheller. As we
(01:28):
are seeing now, multiple members of Congress have come forward,
and I was actually fortunate enough to speak with one
of those members, Congressman Norman, who is actually a member
of the House Freedom Caucus. It's good to know that
at least we might have a super politicization of the
military right now, but there are still members of Congress
(01:49):
who realize what is happening is wrong and will actually
uphold their oath and they're pledged to really stand up
for the American people. So to talk about what's happening
in Washington, this is something that I'm sure, like myself,
many of you saw a viral clip circulating on the
Internet of a gentleman who had said, look, this is
what I found. This is obviously clearly disturbing. We all
(02:11):
see the footage of what's happening in Australia of literally
a police state, and they are increasingly more and more
losing their rights to even have a voice in regards
to protest or counter protesting their government in regards to
this extreme legislation. But nonetheless, we saw that this video
surface and it went absolutely viral, and it went viral
(02:31):
because people right now do not trust government and you
can't blame them. I think that after especially the last
year or so, after the election cycle, and really after
the massive disinformation campaign we saw launched by the mainstream
media to the American people in regards to even just
(02:52):
treatment of COVID nineteen, whether or not masks works. We
saw that those emails that were leaked from Dr Fauci's
office where he was literally saying mass do not work.
All of these things have caused the American people to
essentially lose all faith in government, and we can't blame them. Now.
I want to play for you this video because this
has been something that I promised all of you that
(03:13):
I would look at the facts and then present these
to you so that you can decide, and then obviously
give you my synopsis. Listen here in Ville, look what's
going on out here. Everybody needs to see this. There's
the main highway right there. It looks like we got
a an active COVID quarantine site going in here, so
(03:39):
everything has been logged all of that. I just wanted
to show you guys the main road there. Check that
out at a gate here, there's also a gate over
there by that does are two gates going into this place.
Looks like they're just getting to work on it. They're
(04:03):
they're coming along. So if you look at the video,
you'll see that part of the reason why this gentleman
actually stopped is because the first thing that you see
is nisqually active COVID quarantine site says close to public
entrance by medical referral only. So obviously I think anyone
would kind of stop, pause and take interest to this.
And then obviously you can see some fresh construction. Now.
(04:25):
I posted that, and then I actually got some response
from people that lived in Washington, and it was really split.
Half of the people said that, look, this is something
that's new, it's fresh, were freaked out about it. The
other half said that the actual tribe had responded because
this video had surfaced. Now when you hear the video
of the response from the tribe, they say that this
(04:46):
has been set up for the disquality tribe itself, and
it is a location where people can go if they
don't have the ability to quarantine on their own from
their families. And it's something that's been set up on
tribal property, so as you know, with tribal law, they
really do operate within their own government. Right. So he
addresses this, but it's still leaving people uncomfortable. And here's why,
(05:10):
because when you look online and I had also these
people sending me stuff from the CDC and then also
to a Washington Gov job opening. People don't want to
lose one their personal freedoms. And historically speaking, whether we're
talking about Germany, whether we're even talking about what happened
in the United States with a Japanese during World War two,
(05:33):
camps are never a good thing, especially when they're run
by government. Not to specify, this is being run by
a tribal government. But it still makes people uncomfortable. Why
because it's in their backyards. If you head over to
careers dot Washington dot gov. So careers dot w a
dot gov look up Isolation and Quarantine Strike Team Consultants
under PS two. It's a non permanent job listing. It
(05:55):
states that the salary starts at about a month to
forty two dollars a month, and the locations needed are
in Louis County and Centralia Washington. Obviously it's a full
time but non permanent position and it's being put out
by the Department of Health. If you go through this,
it goes to layout that the isolation and quarantine section
works and to decompress hospitals by supporting local and state
(06:18):
isolation in quarantine, alternate care facility, and patient transport by
partnering with local governments. And then it puts in parentheses tribes, counties, cities.
So whether or not this is a listing for the
Nisquality tribe, or whether or not it is a listing
for as stated in the job listing, Louis County, which
is where they have a state operated facility within a
(06:39):
motel that basically provides the ability to quarantine people that
have COVID nineteen. I think that the people of Washington
have rights to be a little bit concerned and at
least ask questions, obviously never inciting violence, but why is
it so wrong that people are concerned about this? So
I found the video online and the video is of
(07:00):
the leader of an disquality tribe talking about some of
the backlash that they have received. Good afternoon, everybody. Today
is Tuesday, September two thousand twenty one. My name is
Willie Frank, the third Chairman of the Nosqually Indian Tribe.
Here to give folks a quick update in regards to
a social media post that occurred yesterday. We here at
(07:21):
the Nisqually Tribe are dismayed that lies and untrus are
being spread about our COVID quarantine site at Brighton Creek
Healing and Retreat Center just outside of Roy. The tribe
ownes the property and it is a place for healing.
We made it a COVID quarantine site eighteen months ago
to help with our tribal members who have no other
place to quarantine, or if they want to protect the
(07:42):
unvaccinated tribal members and the young kids at home. This
is not fundamentally different than anyone quarantine in their own home. Well.
Tribe tribes are used to racism disguised as falsehood. We
will not tolerate threats being made against our tribal members,
health staff, or any other staff, either in person or
by the phone. These are unlawful and we will pursue
(08:05):
law enforcement actions against anyone who makes these threats. Brighton
Creek is a place of healing and these falsehoods are
very dangerous and very misleading. Please please listen to the
facts then, as Squally tribe is here to work with
our outside communities and we are here to protect our homeland.
(08:28):
I thank you very much. Have a great day. So
do I think that you know, I don't know why
he brought into racism in it. I think many people
are concerned about this, not because they're racist and they
don't like the Nisqually tribe. I think that they're concerned
because we realize that not just around our country, but
around the world, people are losing their freedoms and government
is again I cannot say this enough, will never be
(08:51):
able to make better decisions for you than you can
make for yourself or for your family. So why they
interjected that, I don't know, but I will ay that
his explanation says that they're doing it for their tribe
and that it's not mandatory. But when you have this
type of distrust that is really I think on murmurs
of the American people that is going to obviously carry
(09:14):
over into instances like this, and I wanted to share
that with you because I think it's important, especially that
we are obviously putting correct information out there, but that
we are also aware that you know, once you have
government and legislation pass rules, you typically tend to not
get your freedoms back. It's not like you can just
erase it and make it go away. It's really hard
(09:35):
to pull back. And so do I think people have
the right to be concerned? Absolutely? Do I think people
have the right to ask questions? Absolutely? And do I
try to provide you with the correct information so that
you can determine your own conclusion about this. In general,
I think that it is really really not a good
idea anywhere to call something a quarantine camp or a
(09:56):
quarantine COVID nineteen site. I think that it is terrible.
I think that people obviously should have the opportunity to
make their own decisions, but probably not a good idea
for branding, especially in the state of Washington. We will
segue into what's happening with Lieutenant Colonel Sheller an update
for that one, but I do have to break, so
we'll be right back after this quick break. Addressing the
(10:17):
politicization of the military and what is happening currently with
Lieutenant Colonel Sheller. I do not think it is by
accident that Lieutenant Colonel Sheller was not given his requests
for resigning his commission. In fact, as you heard on
the last episode, he tried, but they said no, and
(10:39):
they wanted to keep him in. And I think they
wanted to keep him in to prove a point. They
wanted to show, especially higher up so the brass in
the military, that they cannot step out of line. I
think in any other circumstance, even in and I think
under previous administrations this type of reaction and this type
(10:59):
of response in regards to someone asking for accountability, especially
on Afghanistan, when we were all asking that same question,
I don't think that this type of reaction would have
taken place. But now we're seeing and actually this morning
there was a posting from Congressional Representative Troy Nells that stated,
(11:21):
right now, Lieutenant Colonel Sheller is in his initial fourteen
day period of isolation in accordance to COVID nineteen protocols.
He then goes on to further state that charges have
not yet been preferred, but Lieutenant Colonel Sheller is suspected,
and then he goes through and he lists the potential
charges that they are going to bring against Lieutenant Colonel Sheller.
(11:44):
There is violating Article eighty eight, which is contempt towards officials,
Article ninety which is willfully disobeying superior commissioned officers. There
is Article nine two, which is failure to obey or
an order of regulation, an Article one thirty three which
is conduct unbecoming of an officer or gentleman under the
(12:04):
Uniform Code of Military Justice. These are the allegations, and
Lieutenant Colonel Sheller is presumed innocent until proven guilty. That's why,
as you know, we want to make sure that Lieutenant
Colonel Sheller is working with one of the best attorneys
money can buy. And that's why so many organizations have
come together, specifically those of the Pipe Pitter Foundation, to
actually you know, advocate on his behalf. And if you
(12:25):
do want to give, you can give if you go
to the previous podcast episode, actually put the U r
L in the description of that so that you can
give there. But the things that they're listing are all
because again he chose to speak up, which when an
actuality have talked to many officers and they don't think
that any of this applies. In fact, you know, they
want to say that he was political, but his job
(12:47):
as an officer is to make sure that his men
are taken care of. And a lot of people don't
know this, but you are not supposed to comply with
an unlawful order. So if he believed that any of
those orders, especially the gag order that they placed on
him where he apparently had broken it to literally ask
for support from his senior military leadership, if that's considered
(13:08):
an unlawful order, can you then see how it is
a fact that they are going through and they're weeding
out those that are conservative and ideology, whether they're conservative
leading independence, conservative Republicans, whether they just are conservative in general,
whether it's because they are Christians, whatever it might be.
This is part of I think a bigger plan here.
(13:30):
They have been for a very long time now using
COVID nineteen to now dishonorably discharge at the request of
the Biden administration, any service members that are not wanting
to take the COVID nineteen vaccination. They are not respecting
people's request for religious exemptions in the military. And fact
(13:51):
I've had I want to say I've probably received maybe
about six hundred messages on my social media channels from
service members that are saying that when they do put
in that request, that they're senior leadership is essentially telling
them no, and they're basically laughing them out of office.
I read you that really disturbing Army power point where
they were talking about why you should take the COVID
(14:12):
nineteen vaccine, and then it goes on to just really
address something bizarre, which is the seven tenants of Satanism.
I mean, sometimes I see this stuff and I think
that we're an upside down world. I mean, how could
you go through any of this and not realize that
we are literally seeing the military weed out people that disagree.
(14:33):
And that's dangerous. It's dangerous because when you have the
military so far polarized and disconnected from the American people,
then you can have leadership, possibly like the current leadership
that we have in office, weaponize that military against the
American people. I didn't see the military pushing for there
to be a court martial of the TikTok young sergeant
(14:57):
in the Army that said that during a time of
martial law that she would use her weapons on the
American people. That was actually a statement put out by
a military service member in military uniform on the Chinese
owned app TikTok, and you saw zero repercussions for that.
You know, I am old enough to remember when the
military emphasized and basically took pride in the fact that
(15:18):
they were a political I served under both Trump and Obama,
and I remember that when Trump was sworn in as
commander in chief, the entire military morale went through the roof.
You know, it seems like it's almost a lifetime ago
because right after Biden was sworn in, and I'm not
saying this because I'm conservative, this is the god honest truth.
The military morale went down. A lot of people were
(15:42):
not excited to deploy for this man to see him speak,
because of how he had treated military service members, because
of how he had really attacked someone that the military
believed in, which was President Trump. You know what I
see with the increasing targeting and politicization of our military,
I fear that it's going to continue to get worse.
(16:03):
You know, we were all there to see General Milly
state that the military should be teaching critical race theory.
I mean, do you is that something that you want
people that are supposed to be representing a very diverse
population of American citizens, that's what you want them to
be focusing on, I mean for good and stakes. You
(16:24):
don't have to look hard to realize that it's wrong.
You go to the American bar doc Org. I've read
this to before, but it says acknowledgement that racism is
a normal feature of society and is embedded within systems
and institutions. Or how about this, you know, divisive gem
here rejection of popular understanding about racism, such as arguments
that confine racism to quote a few bad apples. CRT
(16:47):
recognizes that racism is coded in law, embedded in structures,
and woven into public policy. CRT rejects claims of meritocracy
or quote unquote color blindness. CRT recognizes is that it
is a systemic nature of racism that bears primary responsibility
for reproducing racial inequality. That is what General Millie is
(17:08):
trying to force and indoctrinate our military into thinking, I'm sorry.
But having served in the military and having made friends
with many people, whether they are from higher income and
higher places in society or lower income places in society
when you put on your uniform. I was not taught
that I was different because of the color of my skin,
(17:28):
or because I'm half Hispanic, or because i can get
darker in the summer and I'm wider in the winter.
I mean, what kind of backwards world is that. Oh,
let's go into the fact that this same commanding officer
of our military is saying that he reads maus a
Dong and coral marks. It is estimated that communism has
(17:49):
killed up to a hundred million people, and this guy
is saying that he's read these and that he you know,
this is the same guy in mind you that went
behind President Trump's back to communicate with China that is
a communist government, because he was trying to say that
the president was a threat. I mean, this is exactly
what we were afraid of, and this is exactly what's happening.
(18:12):
And I do think that we have to take this
country back. It's make no mistake, it is the new
slogan I think that President Trump will be putting out
when he runs for office. But I do have to
break real quick. So sit tight, We'll be right back.
So don juniors, posting that that's going to be their
new slogan, take Back America, which is something that I
(18:34):
think a lot of people are feeling now. Going back
to the politicization of the military, the fact is is
that towards the end of two you really started to
see these murmurs from many journalists, many left leaning journalists
of course, that we're saying that the a political nature
of the military needed to end. And then they go
on to basically imply that because there is such a
(18:58):
strong amount of support a military service members for the
Trump administration, that that all of a sudden was showing
that these people were not a political and that the
military's political nature, So why are we trying to hide it?
That essentially military is, you know, a carryover of what's
happening at any given time with the American political system.
The reason why the military should remain a political is
(19:22):
because the military doesn't serve for anyone administration or anyone party.
The military serves on behalf of the American people. You know,
when you take your oath of enlistment, you're not taking
and swearing allegiance to a political party. You are taking
and swearing allegiance to the Constitution and to the American people,
and when you have a military that is so far
(19:45):
polarized that you are seeing now people like Lieutenant Colonel
Sheller now being thrown into the brig for asking support
from his senior commanders. Or you're seeing that amazing young
marine who went I roll after literally pulling that Afghan
child over the gates in Kabul after our administration had
(20:07):
basically left every single person for dead. That boy who's
basically nineteen maybe twenty years old, is now under investigation
because he showed up out of uniform in his civilian
clothes to a Trump rally, and now he's being looked
at it possibly being charged. I mean, this is exactly
(20:28):
what we feared, and we are seeing it happening right
before us. I would be aligned to you if I
said that I wasn't concerned for our nation. I do
feel like that we are at a knife s edge
and that we have to ensure that our military does
not become polarized to what we are seeing happening currently,
because they can and they will. I don't always trust government,
(20:49):
and I think that you shouldn't either. You know, people
sent tend to want to trust their government, but it's
probably the last thing that you should be doing. You
think that there's no corruption that exists in our United
States government have been asleep at the wheel right now.
If this military becomes so far polarized that they are
forgetting that they're not serving a party but serving the
American people, then that is a point in which our
(21:12):
checks and balances are no longer existent, and that enables
bad actors to weaponize the military against the American people,
which should never happen. And that is why the a
political nature of the military must be respected. It must
be upheld, and if we have to fight like hell
to keep it that way, we should be. I want
to close with my final thoughts by saying this, it
(21:34):
is going to get a whole lot worse before it
gets better. And when I met with the President, I
can tell you that a lot is writing on. And
if you're listening to this podcast and you have not
gone to your local GOP, if you have not gone
to a grassroots organization within your community, you are failing yourself.
(21:55):
You're failing the country, and you are failing to stand
up and fight for what we really need, which is
every single person to get politically active and get engaged.
What is happening in our country is scary, and if
we don't pull it back, we will lose this country
for good. A lot of people think we've already lost it.
I don't. I think that we can essentially take it back,
(22:15):
just like what Don Junior said, just like what the
President is saying. But everything will rely on two and
we need your help to get there before we go.
I want to thank you guys so much for listening.

Up next, Luna Talks with Anna Paulina. Luna part of
the gang which no one wants the United States to

a video resurfaced of a potential COVID nineteen quarantine camp
in is Squally, Washington, you asked me to investigate, and boy,

(00:22):
We discussed the rumors, the evidence, and how COVID nineteen

a social media post that occurred yesterday. We here at
(07:21):
the Nisqually Tribe are dismayed that lies and untrus are
being spread about our COVID quarantine site at Brighton Creek
Healing and Retreat Center just outside of Roy. The tribe
ownes the property and it is a place for healing.
We made it a COVID quarantine site eighteen months ago
to help with our tribal members who have no other
place to quarantine, or if they want to protect the
(07:42):
unvaccinated tribal members and the young kids at home. This
is not fundamentally different than anyone quarantine in their own home. Well.
Tribe tribes are used to racism disguised as falsehood. We
will not tolerate threats being made against our tribal members,
health staff, or any other staff, either in person or
by the phone. These are unlawful and we will pursue
(08:05):
law enforcement actions against anyone who makes these threats. Brighton
Creek is a place of healing and these falsehoods are
very dangerous and very misleading. Please please listen to the
facts then, as Squally tribe is here to work with
our outside communities and we are here to protect our homeland.
(08:28):
I thank you very much. Have a great day. So
do I think that you know, I don't know why
he brought into racism in it. I think many people
are concerned about this, not because they're racist and they
don't like the Nisqually tribe. I think that they're concerned
because we realize that not just around our country, but
around the world, people are losing their freedoms and government
is again I cannot say this enough, will never be
(08:51):
able to make better decisions for you than you can
make for yourself or for your family. So why they
interjected that, I don't know, but I will ay that
his explanation says that they're doing it for their tribe
and that it's not mandatory. But when you have this
type of distrust that is really I think on murmurs
of the American people that is going to obviously carry
(09:14):
over into instances like this, and I wanted to share
that with you because I think it's important, especially that
we are obviously putting correct information out there, but that
we are also aware that you know, once you have
government and legislation pass rules, you typically tend to not
get your freedoms back. It's not like you can just
erase it and make it go away. It's really hard
(09:35):
to pull back. And so do I think people have
the right to be concerned? Absolutely? Do I think people
have the right to ask questions? Absolutely? And do I
try to provide you with the correct information so that
you can determine your own conclusion about this. In general,
I think that it is really really not a good
idea anywhere to call something a quarantine camp or a
(09:56):
quarantine COVID nineteen site. I think that it is terrible.
I think that people obviously should have the opportunity to
make their own decisions, but probably not a good idea
for branding, especially in the state of Washington. We will
segue into what's happening with Lieutenant Colonel Sheller an update
for that one, but I do have to break, so
we'll be right back after this quick break. Addressing the
(10:17):
politicization of the military and what is happening currently with
Lieutenant Colonel Sheller. I do not think it is by
accident that Lieutenant Colonel Sheller was not given his requests
for resigning his commission. In fact, as you heard on
the last episode, he tried, but they said no, and
(10:39):
they wanted to keep him in. And I think they
wanted to keep him in to prove a point. They
wanted to show, especially higher up so the brass in
the military, that they cannot step out of line. I
think in any other circumstance, even in and I think
under previous administrations this type of reaction and this type
(10:59):
of response in regards to someone asking for accountability, especially
on Afghanistan, when we were all asking that same question,
I don't think that this type of reaction would have
taken place. But now we're seeing and actually this morning
there was a posting from Congressional Representative Troy Nells that stated,
(11:21):
right now, Lieutenant Colonel Sheller is in his initial fourteen
day period of isolation in accordance to COVID nineteen protocols.
He then goes on to further state that charges have
not yet been preferred, but Lieutenant Colonel Sheller is suspected,
and then he goes through and he lists the potential
charges that they are going to bring against Lieutenant Colonel Sheller.
(11:44):
There is violating Article eighty eight, which is contempt towards officials,
Article ninety which is willfully disobeying superior commissioned officers. There
is Article nine two, which is failure to obey or
an order of regulation, an Article one thirty three which
is conduct unbecoming of an officer or gentleman under the
(12:04):
Uniform Code of Military Justice. These are the allegations, and
Lieutenant Colonel Sheller is presumed innocent until proven guilty. That's why,
as you know, we want to make sure that Lieutenant
Colonel Sheller is working with one of the best attorneys
money can buy. And that's why so many organizations have
come together, specifically those of the Pipe Pitter Foundation, to
actually you know, advocate on his behalf. And if you
(12:25):
do want to give, you can give if you go
to the previous podcast episode, actually put the U r
L in the description of that so that you can
give there. But the things that they're listing are all
because again he chose to speak up, which when an
actuality have talked to many officers and they don't think
that any of this applies. In fact, you know, they
want to say that he was political, but his job
(12:47):
as an officer is to make sure that his men
are taken care of. And a lot of people don't
know this, but you are not supposed to comply with
an unlawful order. So if he believed that any of
those orders, especially the gag order that they placed on
him where he apparently had broken it to literally ask
for support from his senior military leadership, if that's considered
(13:08):
an unlawful order, can you then see how it is
a fact that they are going through and they're weeding
out those that are conservative and ideology, whether they're conservative
leading independence, conservative Republicans, whether they just are conservative in general,
whether it's because they are Christians, whatever it might be.
This is part of I think a bigger plan here.
(13:30):
They have been for a very long time now using
COVID nineteen to now dishonorably discharge at the request of
the Biden administration, any service members that are not wanting
to take the COVID nineteen vaccination. They are not respecting
people's request for religious exemptions in the military. And fact
(13:51):
I've had I want to say I've probably received maybe
about six hundred messages on my social media channels from
service members that are saying that when they do put
in that request, that they're senior leadership is essentially telling
them no, and they're basically laughing them out of office.
I read you that really disturbing Army power point where
they were talking about why you should take the COVID
(14:12):
nineteen vaccine, and then it goes on to just really
address something bizarre, which is the seven tenants of Satanism.
I mean, sometimes I see this stuff and I think
that we're an upside down world. I mean, how could
you go through any of this and not realize that
we are literally seeing the military weed out people that disagree.
(14:33):
And that's dangerous. It's dangerous because when you have the
military so far polarized and disconnected from the American people,
then you can have leadership, possibly like the current leadership
that we have in office, weaponize that military against the
American people. I didn't see the military pushing for there
to be a court martial of the TikTok young sergeant
(14:57):
in the Army that said that during a time of
martial law that she would use her weapons on the
American people. That was actually a statement put out by
a military service member in military uniform on the Chinese
owned app TikTok, and you saw zero repercussions for that.
You know, I am old enough to remember when the
military emphasized and basically took pride in the fact that
(15:18):
they were a political I served under both Trump and Obama,
and I remember that when Trump was sworn in as
commander in chief, the entire military morale went through the roof.
You know, it seems like it's almost a lifetime ago
because right after Biden was sworn in, and I'm not
saying this because I'm conservative, this is the god honest truth.
The military morale went down. A lot of people were
(15:42):
not excited to deploy for this man to see him speak,
because of how he had treated military service members, because
of how he had really attacked someone that the military
believed in, which was President Trump. You know what I
see with the increasing targeting and politicization of our military,
I fear that it's going to continue to get worse.
(16:03):
You know, we were all there to see General Milly
state that the military should be teaching critical race theory.
I mean, do you is that something that you want
people that are supposed to be representing a very diverse
population of American citizens, that's what you want them to
be focusing on, I mean for good and stakes. You
(16:24):
don't have to look hard to realize that it's wrong.
You go to the American bar doc Org. I've read
this to before, but it says acknowledgement that racism is
a normal feature of society and is embedded within systems
and institutions. Or how about this, you know, divisive gem
here rejection of popular understanding about racism, such as arguments
that confine racism to quote a few bad apples. CRT
(16:47):
recognizes that racism is coded in law, embedded in structures,
and woven into public policy. CRT rejects claims of meritocracy
or quote unquote color blindness. CRT recognizes is that it
is a systemic nature of racism that bears primary responsibility
for reproducing racial inequality. That is what General Millie is
(17:08):
trying to force and indoctrinate our military into thinking, I'm sorry.
But having served in the military and having made friends
with many people, whether they are from higher income and
higher places in society or lower income places in society
when you put on your uniform. I was not taught
that I was different because of the color of my skin,
(17:28):
or because I'm half Hispanic, or because i can get
darker in the summer and I'm wider in the winter.
I mean, what kind of backwards world is that. Oh,
let's go into the fact that this same commanding officer
of our military is saying that he reads maus a
Dong and coral marks. It is estimated that communism has
(17:49):
killed up to a hundred million people, and this guy
is saying that he's read these and that he you know,
this is the same guy in mind you that went
behind President Trump's back to communicate with China that is
a communist government, because he was trying to say that
the president was a threat. I mean, this is exactly
what we were afraid of, and this is exactly what's happening.
(18:12):
And I do think that we have to take this
country back. It's make no mistake, it is the new
slogan I think that President Trump will be putting out
when he runs for office. But I do have to
break real quick. So sit tight, We'll be right back.
So don juniors, posting that that's going to be their
new slogan, take Back America, which is something that I
(18:34):
think a lot of people are feeling now. Going back
to the politicization of the military, the fact is is
that towards the end of two you really started to
see these murmurs from many journalists, many left leaning journalists
of course, that we're saying that the a political nature
of the military needed to end. And then they go
on to basically imply that because there is such a
(18:58):
strong amount of support a military service members for the
Trump administration, that that all of a sudden was showing
that these people were not a political and that the
military's political nature, So why are we trying to hide it?
That essentially military is, you know, a carryover of what's
happening at any given time with the American political system.
The reason why the military should remain a political is
(19:22):
because the military doesn't serve for anyone administration or anyone party.
The military serves on behalf of the American people. You know,
when you take your oath of enlistment, you're not taking
and swearing allegiance to a political party. You are taking
and swearing allegiance to the Constitution and to the American people,
and when you have a military that is so far
(19:45):
polarized that you are seeing now people like Lieutenant Colonel
Sheller now being thrown into the brig for asking support
from his senior commanders. Or you're seeing that amazing young
marine who went I roll after literally pulling that Afghan
child over the gates in Kabul after our administration had
(20:07):
basically left every single person for dead. That boy who's
basically nineteen maybe twenty years old, is now under investigation
because he showed up out of uniform in his civilian
clothes to a Trump rally, and now he's being looked
at it possibly being charged. I mean, this is exactly
(20:28):
what we feared, and we are seeing it happening right
before us. I would be aligned to you if I
said that I wasn't concerned for our nation. I do
feel like that we are at a knife s edge
and that we have to ensure that our military does
not become polarized to what we are seeing happening currently,
because they can and they will. I don't always trust government,
(20:49):
and I think that you shouldn't either. You know, people
sent tend to want to trust their government, but it's
probably the last thing that you should be doing. You
think that there's no corruption that exists in our United
States government have been asleep at the wheel right now.
If this military becomes so far polarized that they are
forgetting that they're not serving a party but serving the
American people, then that is a point in which our
(21:12):
checks and balances are no longer existent, and that enables
bad actors to weaponize the military against the American people,
which should never happen. And that is why the a
political nature of the military must be respected. It must
be upheld, and if we have to fight like hell
to keep it that way, we should be. I want
to close with my final thoughts by saying this, it
(21:34):
is going to get a whole lot worse before it
gets better. And when I met with the President, I
can tell you that a lot is writing on. And
if you're listening to this podcast and you have not
gone to your local GOP, if you have not gone
to a grassroots organization within your community, you are failing yourself.
(21:55):
You're failing the country, and you are failing to stand
up and fight for what we really need, which is
every single person to get politically active and get engaged.
What is happening in our country is scary, and if
we don't pull it back, we will lose this country
for good. A lot of people think we've already lost it.
I don't. I think that we can essentially take it back,
(22:15):
just like what Don Junior said, just like what the
President is saying. But everything will rely on two and
we need your help to get there before we go.
