Speaker 1 (00:02):
Mike Johnson sucks. All these bills suck. We'll talk about
that tonight. There's not going to be an impeachment, like
I told you, there wasn't going to how you can
start winning. We'll talk about saving women in America, all
that and more coming up, and I'm right, all right,
(00:25):
let's deal with the impeachment thing right off the bat
before we get to Mike Johnson and all the other
crazy and his congressman Chip Roy's about to join us
and whatnot. So I know you're upset about the impeachment
thing today, in case you're just now turning on the television,
there's supposed to be an impeachment trial in the Senate.
Chuck Schumer, big cheese in the Senate said nah, we're
not gonna do that, and I went on, the right
(00:46):
is very upset about this today. Look, I'm not telling
you not to be upset. It's evil, it's bad, it's wrong,
it's all those things. However, I will tell you this,
and I really don't mean this to be insulting, but
I'm rude, so it's probably gonna come off as insulting
if you're really upset that they're not going to have
an impeachment trial. Maybe you're a little naive. I'll just
(01:11):
say it this way. When people have been screaming about
this all day, I've heard this is what I've heard
two different things. I've heard he has to the Constitution.
I've heard that, and I've heard doesn't even what a
hypocrite Chuck Schumer is. He just said he's on camera
from a couple of years ago saying we have to
have a trial. He's a hypocrite. Again, I'm not trying
(01:33):
to be mean. That's a little naive. No one cares
about the Constitution anymore. You may love it. I love
it. It's wonderful document. Every time you bring up the Constitution,
you sound like a child. And I'm not insulting you.
I'm not insulting the Constitution. I'm really not. It's a
(01:54):
childish notion because Chuck Schumer the other side, they don't
care about it. If they don't care about it, in fact,
if they hate it, if they have no use for it,
then it goes from being this wonderful document that guarantees
freedoms to just not a piece of paper. It means nothing.
It means nothing. Of course, he didn't care about the Constitution.
(02:15):
And no, he doesn't care about hypocrisy either. These people
don't stress those things. That's what people on the right stress. Well,
I don't want to be a hypocrite. Did Are we
doing things the right way? Well, we can't become a monster.
We could. Communists don't think in these terms. Why do
you think I told you that this was going to happen,
didn't I remember what I said. I came right here
on the show and I told you that if they
(02:37):
actually have an impeachment trial that I will shave in
a fou manchew mustache. When I went home and told
my wife that, she freaked out. She said, you better
not and I said, honey, don't worry. Trust me, there's
not going to be an impeachment trial.
Speaker 2 (02:47):
Now.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
Why did I know that? Because I understand exactly what
we're dealing with here. I know who these people are.
Stop with these notions of hypocrisy or the constitution. Those
days are in the past. Sad, but they're in the past.
We're in a whole different ball game now. We're in
a powerball game, which brings us to Mike Johnson. Now
Mike Johnson, before he became Speaker of the House was
(03:11):
rock solid. Mike Johnson has been on this show. Remember
when he came out and said this.
Speaker 3 (03:15):
The greatest threat to us at the end of the
day is our nation's dead. And so we have to
get serious about this. You need adults in the room
to advance the cutting, the limiting of government and getting
it back down and its size and scope. And that's
what these fights are about. They're worthwhile fights. They have
to be done. And again it's messy sometimes, but that's
our process.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
That's how it works.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
And today more foreign aid, more money for them, more
money for them, more money for them, no border security,
no money for you. Because now he's Speaker of the House.
Mike Johnson. Again, I'm angry about it, but I knew
this was coming too. One side is fighting, the other
is laying down. If we are going to take this
(03:55):
country back, we are not going to do it from Washington,
d C. Not from Congress, not from the White House.
It's just not going to happen. Now. I will lay
out probably next segment, ways we can take this country back.
But before we do that, let's talk to one of
the good people there who actually is trying to do
some good work. Congressman Chip Roy of Texas. Well, this
(04:18):
is all going pretty poorly. But one of the people
who's been actually attempting to do some good things for
us there is, of course, our friend Congressman Chip Roy,
the great state of Texas.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
Okay, Chip, I.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
Know you don't have a ton of good news because
it's all kind of crappy out there. So why don't
you just update this on where we are on everything. First,
let's deal with all the foreign aid stuff. Money for them,
money for them, no money for the people who can't
afford eggs anymore. But where are we at with the
foreign aid stuff?
Speaker 2 (04:46):
Yeah, Jesse, you know here, you know more, you know,
typical DC swamp stuff coming your way. And you know
we've been at this now for a while and we've
had continued resolution after continued resolution, after omnibus bill after
omnibus bill, and we never dealt with the border, and
it was all done with this promise that Okay, guys,
don't worry. Well, we'll do the border and Ukraine will
(05:06):
be the fight. Trust me, that'll be the fight. Here
we are just another lucy in the football moment where
what we're being told is the bill that we're supposed
to allow to go to the floor is a bill
that would provide ninety five billion dollars in foreign aid
money for Ukraine, money for Israel, money for Taiwan, and
some other money for some defense priorities and a supplemental
and that that money we should just bless and have
(05:29):
a rule and vote for it, despite the fact there's
nothing for the border. You can put aside whether or
not we should do it. On the merit. You can
debate whether or not we should spend another dollar in
Ukraine at all. A lot of the Republican Conference doesn't
want to do that, but have that debate. That's fine.
But we were always promised that we would secure the
border of the United States. First. That's not happening. And
(05:50):
in that ninety five billion dollars is about eight billion
we're told we're sillig at the text. Eight billion dollars
that would be we haven't seen the text and maybe
clear eight billion dollars it would be for money that
would go to Ukraine and a kind of a you know,
for whatever it wants to use it for government funding bureaucrats.
Another nine billion is for humanitarian assistance, which we know
(06:11):
could be used to backfill for you know, Hamas and
Gaza and use for other nefarious purposes. So yet again
we're doing the bidding of the Democrat Party. There's a
reason Chuck Schumer said it's a great bill. There's a
reason that Huckeing Jeffers has said it's a great bill.
And there's reason that Joe Biden has said it's a
great bill. It's because it's their bill. I don't understand it.
That's where we are, Okay, Chip.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
Can you explain something conceptually before we get to the
fiasis stuff and everything else. I understand we don't have
four hundred and thirty five Chip Roys in the House
of Representatives. I get that. I understand we don't have
a bunch of you on the Republican ticket. I understand that.
I get that there are a bunch of weenie losers
in our party. I understand that. But these are only
Democrat bills, as you've pointed out, and I know that
(06:53):
it is the tiniest majority. I understand all this, But
there have been no Republican priority at all passed Chuck Schumer.
This is the second time he's bragged about what we passed.
Last time he went on the Senate floor and bragged
that we didn't have to cut a nickel. They continuously
brag about what we do. Can you explain why this
(07:14):
is happening?
Speaker 2 (07:16):
One word? Fear And when Republicans operate in fear. Fear
of shut down, right, fear of default on the debt
when you're talking about the debt stealing increased last year,
you know, fear in this case of what happens to Israel,
what happens to Ukraine. As I said, I have a
lot of you know, a soft spot in my heart
(07:38):
for Israel and for making sure we stand with Israel
when this president won't. Right, this president is basically you know,
thumbing his nose at Israel, leaving Israel and Prime Minister
Nya who trying to vent for himself when this you know,
administration literally abstained in the Security Council and in a
vote that would force you know, a ceasefire or pressure
them to sea Spire and I to be able to say, hey,
(08:01):
let's throw something here to support Israel when this administration
wall but we tried last night. Does he to say
let's just have a singular vote on just Israel. And
we were working hard to try to get the votes together.
There's a lot of Republicans that are skeptical of that.
But we tried to work it out and say we
could go do that, but you know, the Speaker didn't
choose that path. Instead, we're going to go with this bill,
(08:22):
which was all pre cooked. It's the same as the
Senate bill for the most part, almost one hundred billion dollars.
The Defense Department comes in and says, well, if we
don't do this, Ukraine will fall. If we don't do this.
You know, something battle happened to Israel. So again back
to my point, it's one word. It's fear. We are
you know, we don't govern, but we are operating in
a representative body out of fear. And when you do that,
(08:43):
you lose. If you signal to the other side, well, no,
we're never going to shut down, or oh well, we
will always vote to fund is Ukraine or Israel without
respect to the border. Right, if we're not going to
do a default when we're not going to go there.
Every time you do that, you lost all your leve
so you might as well just quit and give them
your voting card.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
We don't have two GOP members who are talking about
bouncing Mike Johnson. I can bounce him or don't bounce him.
I don't give a crap. I don't see anything changing
either way. But is Mike Johnson going to be bounced?
If he does get bounced, where do we go from here?
What's happening with all this?
Speaker 2 (09:24):
Yeah? And I don't know. It is my very direct
answer on that I didn't support vacate McCarthy last fall
because of this process. I knew what would happen. There's
a funny story one of my former member, he's a
friend of mine. He said, after John Bayner was deposed,
and like John Baner was doing a lot of stuff
I didn't like, and Paul Ryan was a speaker, and
Paul Ryan was doing stupid stuff. Bayner saw this guy
(09:45):
in a local diner and he walked in and goes, hey,
what's wrong. You know so and so, same crap, different speaker,
he said, a different word. And you know the reality
of this town is that it wants to do the
same thing. Here's the good name. We have a bigger
block of people now who want to say no, A
bigger block of people willing to take the arrows of
saying you don't get to keep doing this. We're not
(10:07):
winning yet. We may not win fast enough for the
iceberg to hit the Titanic, but we are a bigger
group of us are grabbing that steering wheel and trying
to rest it away from the establishment blob here. That
gave you the psory authorization with no warrants, it's giving
you this massive ninety five billion dollars supplemental to continue
to perpetuate war with no clear mission and without making
(10:27):
sure we have a secure border ourselves. That gave you
the massive spending bill that frankly, not even a majority
of Republicans voted for two weeks ago because it's filled
with all sorts of earmarks, ridiculous spending two hundred million
dollars for an FBI headquarters after the FBI is being
weaponized against the American people and the former president. I
could go on and on, Jesse. That's the bottom line.
We'll see what happens with the Speaker. I'm not interested
(10:49):
in chaos for chaos sake. I'm not interested in perpetuating
the same crap here. But I'm going to keep fighting
on policy and then we'll see what happens on the
speaker front.
Speaker 1 (10:59):
Yeah, I'm glad you talked about us gaining groundship because
as frustrated and angry as I am, and as you
well know, I've been trying to explain to my audience
that we are getting better. Are we going to get
better fast enough? I don't know. But FISA, obviously we're
pretty much screwed on that, and you can update us there.
But FISA was at least a struggle. Fiza's never really
been a struggle in my lifetime since FISA came around,
(11:20):
and it was it was a struggle this time to
get it through. Now, obviously we're turbo screwed with that
whole thing, But maybe next time we get even better.
Speaker 2 (11:28):
Am I wrong? Jesse? That's the exact right perspective, And
you often have the right perspective, and I appreciate it
that you know. I go back and I look at
it this way. In two thousand and nine, you had
the whole Obama fiasco. What happened if the tea party
comes in, what do you get? You get Marco Rubio
instead of Charlie christ In Florida, Charlie Criss ultimately became
the Democrat nominee against Ron DeSantis, and he was the favorite,
(11:50):
you know, candidate for the Republican establishment. So we got
Marco Rubio. We got Mike Lee instead of Bob Bennett,
the established Canada, Utah, we got Ram Paul instead of
Trade raising a Kentucky. The next we got Ted Cruz
instead of David Doers. Then we got the Freedom Caucus
founded in twenty fourteen. Then we got Donald Trump, who
comes in to drain the swamp in twenty sixteen. Twenty
twenty was a mass. We dealt the COVID mass. We
(12:11):
had a great hearing yesterday, by the way, highlighting all
the stupid you know, COVID tyranny. And now fast forward
and now we're dealing with the struggle. We had the
fight over the speaker last year. We're building the Freedom Caucus.
More eyes are being opened. You're right. We had a
two d two hundred and twelve to two hundred and
twelve vote on FIZA to force a warrant last week,
and that's a really big deal. We were able to
(12:33):
get reforms, force change, force the question. We're winning. I
just I just don't know if it's fast enough. So
everybody out there to take heart. You got to get
out there and get active in primaries, and you got
to hold your members accountable. Don't listen if you burn
their phones down it.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
Chip before we let you go. Talk about this COVID
hearing yesterday, because I watched a whole bunch of that.
It was outstanding.
Speaker 2 (12:56):
Yeah, it was great. We had the Surgeony General at Florida,
doctor Latappoe. We had Harmony Billan and Harmey said a
bunch of the litigation on all the lockdowns and the
violations of the First Amendment and religious liberty and shutting
down churches as well as shutting down individual's livelihoods. Doctor
Latipo testified about you know a lot of the you know,
crazy issues with the vaccines, about how all the liability
(13:16):
protections for these big farming companies is perpetuating that stuff,
how all of this tyranny and shutting down our way
of life was completely unacceptable, and how we need to
keep shining a light on it. We had great participation.
Thomas Massey asked great questions. We had a wonderful woman
who from Kentucky who her son had gotten you know,
behind in school because it was shut down, and she
started an organization. Look, the American people are waking up.
(13:38):
Riley Gaines is fighting back, Chloe Cole fighting the transgender nonsense.
Scott Smith, the dad in Loud and County Mark out
telling the FBI to pound sand. We need the American
people to keep standing strong. I'm going to do everything
I can to throw sand in the gears up here.
We need a stronger Texas and I think there are
some changes of foot in Austin, so you know, keep
the faith. You know, we had a Secretary of Treasury
(13:59):
and a vice president dueling in the streets two hundred
and twenty years ago, so you know we've been conflicted before.
But what we don't need is spending money. We don't
have continuing endless wars, wide open borders, all of this
woke DEI nonsense killing our soul. We need to get
back to Americad, the rule of law, secure border sovereignty,
a military that kills people and blows things up. And
I'm going to keep giving that narrative out there and
(14:21):
hopefully we can convince some people in our direction. But
you got to keep the faith we're called to. You
can't quit, Yeah, Amen, can't quit. Chip, appreciate you as
always brother. All right, You ready to start winning.
Speaker 1 (14:35):
You know you you have the power to affect everything
you see out there, and we're going to discuss that next.
Before we discuss that, let's discuss this. As Chip just said.
Things aren't getting better, but very very slowly, and we
might not turn the ship in time. We really might
(14:58):
not financially. Look, they're not going to write the ship.
They're not. Why do you think. Look, I'm looking at
a headline right here, gold shining bright like a diamond
and could reach three thousand per ounce. That's from city.
Why do you think that is? Why do you think
Nation States finance giants? Why do you think they're hoovering
(15:21):
up all the gold and silver they possibly can right now?
Do you think maybe they know something that's coming? You
need to do the same. Now, you're not made of money.
I understand that Oxford Gold Group is for normal people.
They'll get it in your retirement account to make sure
your four to one K isn't wiped out. They'll get
physical gold or silver, I don't care what color it
(15:41):
is in your possession. They mail it to you. It's easy.
You don't need a bank vault for it. It's all anonymous,
it's all insured. But it's something in your physical possession.
Call Oxford Gold Group. I promise you this. Every day
you wake up you read a new Finance headne You'll
sleep a little better at night knowing you did eight
(16:04):
three three nine nine five Gold. Tell him Jesse told
you to call. It will take care of you. I promise.
I love these guys. Eight three three nine nine five Gold.
We'll be back. Are you politically involved? You're probably answering, Yes,
(16:29):
you're politically involved. How politically involved are you? Is it
just watching I'm right every night? Not that I want
you to stop doing that? Do you maybe have a
maga hat? Not that I want you to stop doing that?
I'm voting drump Not that I want you to stop
doing that. But is that the extent of your political involvement.
(16:50):
I'm gonna explain something, just very briefly, because we're gonna
move on. We have so much else we need to
talk to. But this country will not be saved from Washington.
It won't be saved by it won't be saved by
Trump in the White House. It's not possible. It's two broken,
it's too corrupt, it's too gone. But this country can
be saved by you. If we would engage, we can
(17:13):
save the country. Let me explain. Do you know why
there's a drag Queen's Story hour and red towns all
across the United States of America? Do you understand why?
The real reason why? Because the Communists are politically involved.
We think we are, but they actually are. We vote
(17:33):
for president once every four years. We post on social media.
Speaker 4 (17:36):
I love Trump.
Speaker 1 (17:37):
But do you go to school board meetings? Do you
get on your city parks department, city council? When's the
next committee meeting in your town? Your town has one?
I promise you a commission, a committee meeting. When is
the next one? Do you even know? All this information
is publicly available. The communist does know. He'll be at
(17:59):
those meetings. He'll be filling your committee. I know you
have a ten thousand person town and Jesse. You don't
understand we're fine here. There's only twenty communists here. Yes,
but the twenty communists are all the ones in power.
There is a difference, a monumental difference between majority and power.
Those are two totally opposite things, the right things, they're
(18:21):
the same, they are not. Now that's the bad news.
The good news is you can take back that power.
The soft underbelly of communism in the United States of
America is their hold on local politics. They took your
school board, they took your city council. They're on the committees,
they're on the commissions, they're in the parks department. But
they're so safe there. They feel so safe because you
(18:44):
never got involved before. But what if tonight, on the
way home from work, instead of driving by city hall,
what if you pulled in, found out when the next
public meeting was made a plan you ten friends to
show up. What if that is how we save the
Unit of States of America, Because that is you know that,
get involved. That's how we'll save the country. Actually involved,
(19:07):
all right, all right, now, save yourself as well, save
yourself from physical harm. I am sad that I even
have to come on the air and talk about this,
But the truth is, you really need to keep a
burnup pistol launcher on you at all times. You really
(19:28):
genuinely do a burn A pistol launcher should be on
you when you drive, It should be by your bed
when you sleep, if you're out for a jog, if
you're walking the dog, it should be on you. This
is a non lethal pistol launcher. It shoots pepper balls
or tear gas balls. It will stop a very very bad,
very violent man in his tracks. And you need one
(19:50):
of these things. It's legal in all fifty states, So
you can' I Jesse, I can't. I'm in California. It's
legal in all fifty states. No background checks, no permits.
They will mail it to you. Wat teams across America
are using Burna products. These things are the highest quality
and it will save your life ten percent off at
burna dot com slash Jesse. We'll be back.
Speaker 5 (20:22):
And so as I speak to people in my state
or around the country, it's very clear abortion it's not
just on the ballot in places like Arizona and Florida,
it is on the ballot in all fifty states.
Speaker 1 (20:37):
Yeah, we have a problem in this country. We love abortion,
and that is a problem. It's a despicable, demonic act
to harm the unborn. It is at any stage, any stage,
it's despicable, it's disgusting. And yet in American culture today
they love it. They love it so much. Democrats campaign
(20:57):
on it almost exclusively. Joining me. Now, Iby row Off,
big fan, creator of classically Abby abby. How how do
we get to a place in the country where it's
not even a left right thing anymore? Half the right
is joined them. It's just well, I mean it's it's
a well, maybe fifteen weeks, I don't know. Just butcher
it here. Oh that's fine. How do we turn into
such cowards with the most defenseless among us. I don't
(21:21):
understand that. I don't get it.
Speaker 6 (21:23):
I think it really comes down to the idea that
people are devoted to themselves over everything else, the idea
of expressive individualism with which Carl Truman writes about Carl
sh Truman writes about in his books.
Speaker 4 (21:35):
I mean the idea that.
Speaker 6 (21:37):
You are most important, and it doesn't matter if it
comes at the cost of a life, it doesn't matter
if it comes at the cost of anything. You need
to put yourself first. And so you see people on
the right and the left putting women who are making
poor choices right, because how the high ninety percent of abortions,
I don't know if that's the correct percentage, but the
(21:59):
most majority of abortions are done because women just want
to do them. It's not there's an emergency, it's not
for any other reason. Then oh, I slept with someone
and now I.
Speaker 4 (22:09):
Don't want this baby.
Speaker 6 (22:11):
Because of that, we have people women just getting rid
of their children's lives.
Speaker 4 (22:16):
And the truth is that a woman who aborts her
baby isn't a mother. It isn't not a mother. She
is a mother.
Speaker 6 (22:23):
It's that she's a mother to a dead child. Which
I feel so sorry for these women that they don't
know it until they do it, because we know that
there's a like post abortion syndrome of women realizing, oh,
I've made a terrible, terrible mistake, but.
Speaker 4 (22:36):
You can't know it until you've done it.
Speaker 6 (22:37):
In this culture, unfortunately, it's not something we can just
tell people anymore. And really all of this stemmed from
when birth control became so easily accessible, right, because as
soon as you have birth control easily accessible, women can say,
I don't need to relate sex with having a baby.
Sex and you know, pregnancy are completely separate ideas, which
(23:00):
of course is not true because even when you're taking abortion,
even when you're taking birth control, there's a very high
chance that you could get pregnant, or a small chance
or whatever, you know, depending on what kind of birth
control you're using. So once we've mentally separated birth, separated
sex from pregnancy. Then when you have irresponsible sex and
(23:23):
you get pregnant, you're like, well, I guess I might
as well.
Speaker 4 (23:26):
Just get rid of this baby.
Speaker 2 (23:29):
Abby.
Speaker 1 (23:30):
I need to ask you a question because I'm not
a woman and you very much are one. I believe
that God makes us with certain instincts. I just believe
we're created that way. As a man, I have instincts
to protect certain things. As a woman, maybe I'm just
blessed to have a great mother and I did my wife.
I watch what she does for our sons, like she'll
kill herself just to make sure they have a good
(23:51):
birthday party or something like that. There's nothing she wouldn't
do with them. I think about women and their babies,
as women will lay down and die for their babies.
In nature, it's like this, grizzly bears will die. They
do all the time protecting their young. Yet what happened
to American women or women of the West. And I'm
not absolving men, I'm really not. But how is that
(24:11):
not just something built in whatever the actress tells you
were the latest Democrat politician? How is that? I always
thought it was built in clearly I was.
Speaker 6 (24:19):
Wrong, you know, I think it has it comes down
to a culture of irresponsibility. When as a mother, yes,
there is absolutely an inherent, innate.
Speaker 4 (24:31):
Connection to your child.
Speaker 6 (24:32):
But even for a lot of women I know who
have had children and you know, have children here, it's
hard for them to understand how important that role is.
Speaker 4 (24:42):
Right because I've talked to so many women.
Speaker 6 (24:43):
I'm a stay at home mom with my two sons,
and I will tell people, you know, I love being
home with them. I'm considering homeschooling, and they're like, oh,
I can't imagine being home with my kids all day.
Speaker 4 (24:53):
I could never. I could never do that.
Speaker 6 (24:55):
And so, of course they still absolutely adore their kids,
but there's this there's this la of like we've really.
Speaker 4 (25:02):
Divorced women from motherhood.
Speaker 6 (25:04):
We've made women afraid of being mothers, of being completely
responsible for their children, and so.
Speaker 4 (25:11):
They kind of eschew that responsibility for.
Speaker 6 (25:14):
Everything we've been raised to do instead fulfill our potential
by going out and getting a job, or going out
and pursuing our dreams. When being a mother is the
best thing you can do, and it is really, It
fulfills every dream and fulfills every potential of women. And unfortunately,
really we've really come into an era, a time where
(25:36):
women are not taught that they're taught that being a
mother only holds you back, and even if you are
a mother, you can This is a phrase I've heard
a lot lately, which is, oh, you can be a
mother and pursue your dreams. That's even used on the
pro life side, and I like it as an idea,
But the truth is a lot of the time, being
a mother can preclude following your dreams because your child
(25:59):
is more important than whatever you've been told is your dream,
and your child becomes your dream. And that is a
beautiful concept that we really have lost.
Speaker 5 (26:09):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (26:09):
Really, it's something that you see all the time out there.
You don't have to choose. No, actually you do have
to choose. Oftentimes, you very much do have to choose. Okay,
that's women. Let's talk about men. Men have a very
important role in this discussion. They should not remove themselves
in this discussion. They should not bow before these dirty
COMMI baby hating women. When it comes to this discussion,
(26:31):
men have an important role to protect these children. Young
men today, young men I talk to all the time.
They email my show they don't want to be dads. Abby. Now,
I talk all the time about how great it is
to be a dad, even though I suck at it,
I love it. Why don't young men want to be dads?
Speaker 4 (26:46):
I think they're afraid of women.
Speaker 6 (26:51):
I think they're afraid that women are going.
Speaker 4 (26:54):
To tell them they're doing it wrong. We are, you know.
Speaker 6 (26:58):
Again, the culture we live in is very pro female,
even though you're going to hear the antithesis of that
on the left. And so women are often put in
a position of being like, oh, you're doing it wrong.
Oh you're not a good enough father. Oh you're not
doing things.
Speaker 4 (27:12):
Right, And that's not true.
Speaker 6 (27:14):
Men are different than women, as it should be. Fathers
are incredibly important to their children, and for the opposite
reasons that women are.
Speaker 4 (27:23):
Right.
Speaker 6 (27:23):
Women are there to nurture and take care of their children,
and fathers are there to put risk into their lives
and play with them and make it like a little
dangerous so that their kids know they can take risks
and still live. And a lot of women don't want
to see that, so they're telling their husbands you're doing
it wrong, You're doing everything wrong.
Speaker 4 (27:40):
And so men look at.
Speaker 6 (27:42):
You know, their dads who maybe are not able to
interact with their children in that masculine way, and maybe
they're seeing, oh, this doesn't look like a lot of fun.
It looks like I would have to be feminized as
a father and that doesn't look fun.
Speaker 4 (27:57):
Whereas with my husband, you know.
Speaker 6 (27:59):
Fatherhood is so much fun for him because I'm like, yeah, like.
Speaker 4 (28:02):
Throw our kid on the floor, that's hilarious. Like he
loves it.
Speaker 6 (28:05):
He loves being thrown in the air, he loves scraping
his knee, he loves not being completely in a bubble
and protected all the time. That's what fathers can bring.
I think that's an element. I also think that a
lot of guys they don't know that that parenthood is fun.
We've been shown right that again this is for women
(28:27):
and men. We've been shown this picture that parenthood is
the end of your fun, that you don't get to
do things on your own schedule anymore, you don't get
to have nights out, and you don't get to you know, it.
Speaker 4 (28:39):
Feels like an end rather than a beginning, right.
Speaker 6 (28:41):
Having children is so much the beginning of your life,
not the end at all. And I recently heard something
that I thought was just so moving. Is that a
lot of the times, even now, for men who do
have children, for women who do have children, we.
Speaker 4 (28:54):
Think of it as a stage of life.
Speaker 6 (28:56):
We think of it as, oh, you have your your
young kids, so maybe you only have two.
Speaker 4 (29:00):
This stage of life is short, and then you can
get back into.
Speaker 6 (29:03):
Your normal life, your normal life of being able to
go out and party whenever you want. Of course, it's
going to be a little different with kids and as
you get older, but it's more on your own schedule
rather than a way of life.
Speaker 4 (29:17):
That having children is a way of life. And that's
why there are.
Speaker 6 (29:19):
Some people out there who I totally respect, and I
hope to be among them, who just continuously have children,
because they think of it as a way of.
Speaker 4 (29:28):
Life, not a stage of life.
Speaker 6 (29:30):
And it's not like, oh, I just need to get
through this so that I can get back to my normalcy.
Speaker 1 (29:35):
Yeah, being a dad it's the best thing I ever did.
Speaker 2 (29:38):
Abby.
Speaker 1 (29:39):
I would talk to you all day if I could,
but I cannot. I appreciate you very much, Thank you
so much for having All Right, we're going to talk
to somebody who used to be that liberal white woman
we talk about all the time. That nutjob woman, the
dirty comedy who's destroying the country, and.
Speaker 2 (29:53):
She woke up.
Speaker 1 (29:55):
What's her story? How'd she wake up? How'd she start
talk about that?
Speaker 7 (29:59):
No?
Speaker 1 (29:59):
Moment before we talked about that. Let's talk about this.
There are three things, three things you never short change
yourself on in life. Three things you know. Those three
things are your tires on your vehicle. Your life depends
on it, the life of your family, the life of
families around you. Buy good tires, you're betting you spend
(30:21):
a third of your life in bed. And anything that
goes on your feet. Your feet are everything. That's why
I talk to you about gravity to fire. What is it? Well,
first of all, you need to understand custom or orthopedics.
That's what comes with gravity to fire, custom orthopedics. Your
(30:42):
feet are different than my feet. Your feet hurt at
the end of the day, whether you're chasing the kids
around or walking on your job or whatever. Your feet
hurt on the end at the end of the day
because they're not made for your feet. They're made for
everyone's feet. Go experience something totally different, no foot pain,
no aching at the end of the day. Go and
(31:02):
save a bunch of money while you do it. Gd
f y dot Com promo code Jesse. These are the
greatest shoes you will ever put on your feet. You're
gonna end up buying ten pair. Okay, ged e f
y promo code Jesse, We'll be back. It is crazy
(31:29):
how crazy things are. I know that's a terrible way
to put that, but think about this. Think about this
for a moment. We now live in a country year
twenty twenty four where dudes beat up women in sports regularly.
This is something that happens regularly, and it shouldn't left
because it's not funny that one mma chick got her
skull beaten in high school volleyball girl still has concussion problems.
(31:53):
Some dude spiked a ball off of her face. This
happens in front of our eyes regularly, and not only
is there no outrage about it, everyone's just kind of
moved on. I mean, the mainstream people. I know you're
mad about it. President put out a statement yesterday. Women
in sports continue to push new boundaries that inspire us
all but right now we're seeing that even if you're
(32:14):
the best, women are not paid their fair share. It's
time to give our daughters the same opportunities as our
sons and ensure women are paid what they deserve. Joining
me now, Jennifer Gelardi, Culture, health and policy writer, Jennifer
President is very, very concerned about women, especially in sports,
getting equal treatment, is it he?
Speaker 8 (32:36):
Yeah, Well, if he was, then he'd say something about
the men and women's sports, but he doesn't. He celebrates
the day of transgender visibility on a very sacred holy
day for many of us.
Speaker 7 (32:49):
So they don't seem to be too concerned with equality.
Speaker 8 (32:53):
They are, they have a different, different definition of it,
to be sure, Jennifer.
Speaker 1 (33:00):
It seems like I only have my perspective as a dude,
but as a woman. Does it seem like this stuff
happened fast? I'm only forty two years old. I'm not ancient,
and life was really normal for most of my life,
and now there are dudes with penises in women swimming,
and I don't understand. Doesn't this seem like it happened instantly?
Speaker 7 (33:22):
It does until you look back.
Speaker 8 (33:23):
And I wrote a piece actually in the Epoch Times
entitled save the Tomboys. How decades of liberal sexual ideology
is erasing women? And so if you trace it back,
it's not the first wave feminist movement. Obviously that was
a worthwhile pursuit to allow women to vote, to make
sure we weren't defined as property anymore of our husbands.
(33:46):
But it was really that third wave feminism that no
longer celebrated women for being women and our unique capabilities
and being mothers and wives and having the to go
in the workforce.
Speaker 7 (34:01):
But it really it.
Speaker 8 (34:04):
Harvey Mansfield wrote this book called Manliness, and he talks
about it went from this desire to protect women and
to stand up for what women can bring to the table,
to this desire to like that women can be anything.
Speaker 7 (34:20):
Right, there are no boundaries for women anymore.
Speaker 8 (34:22):
We can be anything and even nothing, that our actual
thing that makes us feminine is worth nothing anymore. We
can have sex like a man, we can work like
a man.
Speaker 7 (34:34):
So it's this.
Speaker 8 (34:35):
Kind of progressive ideology of there are no boundaries.
Speaker 7 (34:38):
There is no truth.
Speaker 8 (34:39):
I just heard saw a Twitter post of Catherine Mayer,
I think her name is the new CEO of NPR
saying something about there are many truths, and well, there's
not many truths.
Speaker 7 (34:52):
There is one truth and then there.
Speaker 8 (34:54):
Are personal experiences and personal stories and I am now
probably fulfilling stereotype of a single woman with my cat
in the background.
Speaker 7 (35:03):
Sorry, but no, I knew that I.
Speaker 2 (35:09):
Was gonna have.
Speaker 1 (35:12):
Your You just stay where you are. Your cat is
more than welcome to join the broadcast, and if it
has anything to add, it is welcome to do. So,
you know what, Actually, let me ask you your story,
because you're you're kind of a convert to this way
of thinking over the last few years. Give us your story.
Speaker 8 (35:30):
Yeah, I grew up pretty conservative in uh, in a
small town in kind of blue collar Pennsylvania. Everybody knows
it because of the office. I grew up in Scranton.
My grandfather was a coal miner, and you know, my
dad was kind of a star football player at Penn
State and went into insurance. Very typical middle class, maybe
(35:51):
upper middle class at that point, like we'd probably be
considered poor at this point, but uh and pretty much
upper middle class, good public school education, and there was
definitely a focus to achieve and.
Speaker 7 (36:03):
To do well. And I played varsity.
Speaker 8 (36:05):
Tennis, I was a dancer, went on to a very
conservative school in the south in Virginia. But I think
part of me was kind of on this active pursuit
of fulfillment, like I was seeking something and I wasn't
finding it in the outside world, but I kept going there.
Speaker 7 (36:24):
For it, and I rebelled a little bit.
Speaker 8 (36:27):
I you know, if the things that my parents were
telling me were true, I think I wanted to find.
Speaker 7 (36:33):
Those things out for myself.
Speaker 8 (36:35):
I didn't want to just take anybody's word for it,
and so I felt very constrained kind of by this. Potentially,
I guess we want to say conservative. It felt very binding, right.
We talked about boundaries, but this, to me at that
time felt very binding. And do this go beal I
was going to I was ready to go to law school.
That's what I thought I wanted to do. My actual
(36:57):
undergrad is in public policy. I worked in DC for
a somem and I said no.
Speaker 7 (37:00):
Thank you.
Speaker 8 (37:02):
And then I moved to Alabama, which is also pretty conservative,
moved to Birmingham, and then I, you know, was still seeking,
and I went where everybody goes when they're seeking, which
is Los Angeles, and I you know, if you don't
have a solid sense of self, if you don't have.
Speaker 7 (37:24):
A true understanding of who you are and what you want.
Speaker 8 (37:26):
You can get very lost there, very easily, and very
pulled into the progressive ideology, and that's what happened.
Speaker 7 (37:32):
Like I was perfect.
Speaker 8 (37:33):
I was perfect fodder for the left right, someone who
was seeking, who probably wanted attention. And I talk about
this in my piece and the Federalists, I think we
have a lot of women walking around with daddy issues,
you know. I think women want to be adored, they
want to be loved, They have this nurturing quality, they
have this empathetic quality that can be taken advantage.
Speaker 7 (37:55):
Of by the left.
Speaker 8 (37:56):
So all of those things really put me in prime
position to be brainwashed for more for the most part.
And then I was out there and in other liberal
cities New York and Austin for about twenty years.
Speaker 7 (38:10):
I mean way fast forwarding to.
Speaker 8 (38:14):
COVID, and I made a career out of kind of
health and wellness. I was an on camera personality. I
got all these degrees. I was deep into the yoga world,
deep into spirituality, trips to India following a guru.
Speaker 7 (38:26):
I mean, it was a cult for sure.
Speaker 8 (38:29):
The more I even learned about what was going on
behind the scenes, the more confident I am and saying
that I was in a spiritual cult. And I kind
of started coming out of that right before COVID, and
then COVID hit, and something just did not feel right, Like,
for all I knew about health and nutrition, and particularly
(38:52):
when we started to see the data and who was dying,
it just didn't feel right to me.
Speaker 7 (38:58):
I the red flag really went off off when people.
Speaker 8 (39:01):
Started rushing to the store for toilet paper, and I'm like,
what this is just illogical?
Speaker 7 (39:06):
What the heck is going on? And you're telling me
at the time.
Speaker 8 (39:09):
I lived into Panga Canyon, which is just this beautiful
enclave in Los Angeles near Malibu in the mountains, and
you're telling me I can't go to the beach.
Speaker 7 (39:18):
I mean, you saw. I'm sure there.
Speaker 8 (39:20):
Were surfers that got pulled out of the water and arrested,
and I saw people jumping.
Speaker 7 (39:24):
To the other side of the street with masks on,
and that.
Speaker 8 (39:27):
Just like I think all the training I had, you
know what I say is my conservative upbringing probably saved me.
Speaker 7 (39:37):
Right.
Speaker 8 (39:37):
So logic finally started to kick in again, and then
I really went down the rabbit hole. There was another
incident that happened around the George Floyd stuff, and you know,
it's a kind of a longer story, but it made
me see the hypocrisy of the left, really, and it
(39:59):
around the whole Black Lives Matter thing and where people
were getting their information and how biased they were about it.
Speaker 7 (40:07):
And Candice OANs has a.
Speaker 8 (40:08):
Part in that story, you know, so that was interesting
and I had no idea who she was when I
first heard her, but so I, you know, we were
in lockdowns, and I took a lot of hikes around
my neighborhood because that's pretty much all I can do,
and I was listening to Joe Rogan podcast and Jordan
Peterson podcasts, and then I just.
Speaker 7 (40:27):
Started to kind of wake up.
Speaker 8 (40:29):
Like a lot of people, I think, I think COVID
in a way was somewhat of a blessing for people.
For a lot of parents, they saw what was happening
in schools, for some people kind of living in this
La la land of rainbows and unicorns out in Los Angeles,
that everything is not.
Speaker 7 (40:46):
Rainbows and unicorns.
Speaker 8 (40:49):
And then I kind of decided, you know, I'm really
interested in truth. I think I always have been. I
think that's ultimately what led me to seek things. And
I just what I was doing in my career prior
didn't feel meaningful enough anymore. And I know, I've helped
a lot of people. I've had a lot of people
(41:10):
reach out to me and compliment me on my work
and I've helped them, and that was great. But I
think I had reached the point of my career where
I'd done everything I was going to do and there
was something going on here.
Speaker 7 (41:24):
That was bigger.
Speaker 8 (41:25):
And I decided to go back to get my master's
in public policy at Pepperdine University, which was right up
the street from me, which was very convenient. And that
program what we had to read, the books we the
great books we had to read, right, it was like
a great books program. So Aristotle, a book by Matthew Crawford,
was really wonderful, and I've kind of gobbled his stuff
(41:48):
up and reading and listening and having conversations with people,
and then I came to realize, like, wow, this side
of the isle is a lot more fun, first of all,
and I'm back in reality and I can laugh again
and not everything has to be so serious, and I.
Speaker 7 (42:05):
Don't have to save the world. And along with that,
I went back to Christianity.
Speaker 8 (42:10):
So it was like all of these things like that
that weight, that burden that Jesus took off my shoulders
of needing to be the savior of the world because
someone already did that.
Speaker 7 (42:20):
I mean, it was just a massive transformation.
Speaker 8 (42:24):
And what I want to emphasize about that is that,
like I think right now, this goes beyond what we're
seeing now, goes beyond kind of Marxist ideology.
Speaker 7 (42:33):
It goes beyond the woke mind virus.
Speaker 8 (42:36):
I think there's a deep spiritual sickness and that's in
the heart and no amount of logic. This is where
I think conservatives sometimes missed the boat. There's no amount
of logic that's going to appeal somebody that is to
change their mind that is spiritually sick. You can have
these wake up claus I think COVID was one of them.
But I just think we are ill right now, and
(42:59):
it's deep illness, and it's beyond, like I said, this mind.
Speaker 7 (43:04):
Virus, although that plays a part of it.
Speaker 1 (43:06):
Yeah, No, I one hundred percent agree with you. We're
dealing with good and evil, not Republicans and Democrats. And
there's there's just so much there's something so much bigger
and deeper going on here that's well beyond you and
well beyond me. But I love your story Jennifer, you
come back and join me soon. I'm out of time
right outside to keep you here for another twenty minutes.
You are the best, question, No, no, you are the best.
(43:29):
You are the best. Come on back. I'll have you
back again soon. All right, Yeah, lighten the mood. We
have a great light in the media. You know what's
Second Amendment Day? Next? All right, let's lighten the mood.
And today did you know today was Second Amendment Day,
(43:52):
the amendment that actually guarantees all of our other freedoms.
Did you know it's not actually a piece of paper
that does it. It's the Second Amendment that does it.
That's the only reason you're not in a gulag as
we speak. And in honor of the Second Amendment, we're
gonna honor one Bob Mundon. He died back in twenty twelve.
In this dude, I used to watch his videos all
(44:13):
the time. I still see him on occasion when I'm online,
and I stop and watch every single time this dude
starts busting. And I'm telling you, this guy's fast.
Speaker 9 (44:24):
Ladies and gentlemen, the fastest gun in the world right here, Wow,
Bobby or quick?
Speaker 10 (44:34):
Well, the first reaction that people have when they see
this draws Now, wait a minute, could you really hit
anything doing that? Right? Well, let me show you my
own way with a target that that is indeed out
of the whole shit. Let me step this target up.
We'll shoot about eight feet awa because I'm shooting blanks.
Speaker 1 (44:46):
Now here we go.
Speaker 9 (44:52):
Now, in terms of time, Bob, how quick was that?
Speaker 10 (44:56):
I draw cock level fire, this gun, hit what I'm
shooting at in less than two one hundreds of one second.
Speaker 9 (45:01):
Okay, two shots gonna sound like one and he's gonna
hit both of the bullets. It still sounded like just
one shot to me. On the both of the bullets
are gone.
Speaker 1 (45:47):
That dude was amazing, And that's one little one. We
could have done the whole hour, just Bob mundin videos anyway,
Rest in peace, are happy Second Amendment Day to everybody.
We'll see them, Duplainlin
Mike Johnson sucks. All these bills suck. We'll talk about
that tonight. There's not going to be an impeachment, like
I told you, there wasn't going to how you can
start winning. We'll talk about saving women in America, all
that and more coming up, and I'm right, all right,
(00:25):
let's deal with the impeachment thing right off the bat
before we get to Mike Johnson and all the other
crazy and his congressman Chip Roy's about to join us
and whatnot. So I know you're upset about the impeachment
thing today, in case you're just now turning on the television,
there's supposed to be an impeachment trial in the Senate.
Chuck Schumer, big cheese in the Senate said nah, we're
not gonna do that, and I went on, the right
(00:46):
is very upset about this today. Look, I'm not telling
you not to be upset. It's evil, it's bad, it's wrong,
it's all those things. However, I will tell you this,
and I really don't mean this to be insulting, but
I'm rude, so it's probably gonna come off as insulting
if you're really upset that they're not going to have
an impeachment trial. Maybe you're a little naive. I'll just
(01:11):
say it this way. When people have been screaming about
this all day, I've heard this is what I've heard
two different things. I've heard he has to the Constitution.
I've heard that, and I've heard doesn't even what a
hypocrite Chuck Schumer is. He just said he's on camera
from a couple of years ago saying we have to
have a trial. He's a hypocrite. Again, I'm not trying
(01:33):
to be mean. That's a little naive. No one cares
about the Constitution anymore. You may love it. I love
it. It's wonderful document. Every time you bring up the Constitution,
you sound like a child. And I'm not insulting you.
I'm not insulting the Constitution. I'm really not. It's a
(01:54):
childish notion because Chuck Schumer the other side, they don't
care about it. If they don't care about it, in fact,
if they hate it, if they have no use for it,
then it goes from being this wonderful document that guarantees
freedoms to just not a piece of paper. It means nothing.
It means nothing. Of course, he didn't care about the Constitution.
(02:15):
And no, he doesn't care about hypocrisy either. These people
don't stress those things. That's what people on the right stress. Well,
I don't want to be a hypocrite. Did Are we
doing things the right way? Well, we can't become a monster.
We could. Communists don't think in these terms. Why do
you think I told you that this was going to happen,
didn't I remember what I said. I came right here
on the show and I told you that if they
(02:37):
actually have an impeachment trial that I will shave in
a fou manchew mustache. When I went home and told
my wife that, she freaked out. She said, you better
not and I said, honey, don't worry. Trust me, there's
not going to be an impeachment trial.
Speaker 2 (02:47):
Now.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
Why did I know that? Because I understand exactly what
we're dealing with here. I know who these people are.
Stop with these notions of hypocrisy or the constitution. Those
days are in the past. Sad, but they're in the past.
We're in a whole different ball game now. We're in
a powerball game, which brings us to Mike Johnson. Now
Mike Johnson, before he became Speaker of the House was
(03:11):
rock solid. Mike Johnson has been on this show. Remember
when he came out and said this.
Speaker 3 (03:15):
The greatest threat to us at the end of the
day is our nation's dead. And so we have to
get serious about this. You need adults in the room
to advance the cutting, the limiting of government and getting
it back down and its size and scope. And that's
what these fights are about. They're worthwhile fights. They have
to be done. And again it's messy sometimes, but that's
our process.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
That's how it works.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
And today more foreign aid, more money for them, more
money for them, more money for them, no border security,
no money for you. Because now he's Speaker of the House.
Mike Johnson. Again, I'm angry about it, but I knew
this was coming too. One side is fighting, the other
is laying down. If we are going to take this
(03:55):
country back, we are not going to do it from Washington,
d C. Not from Congress, not from the White House.
It's just not going to happen. Now. I will lay
out probably next segment, ways we can take this country back.
But before we do that, let's talk to one of
the good people there who actually is trying to do
some good work. Congressman Chip Roy of Texas. Well, this
(04:18):
is all going pretty poorly. But one of the people
who's been actually attempting to do some good things for
us there is, of course, our friend Congressman Chip Roy,
the great state of Texas.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
Okay, Chip, I.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
Know you don't have a ton of good news because
it's all kind of crappy out there. So why don't
you just update this on where we are on everything. First,
let's deal with all the foreign aid stuff. Money for them,
money for them, no money for the people who can't
afford eggs anymore. But where are we at with the
foreign aid stuff?
Speaker 2 (04:46):
Yeah, Jesse, you know here, you know more, you know,
typical DC swamp stuff coming your way. And you know
we've been at this now for a while and we've
had continued resolution after continued resolution, after omnibus bill after
omnibus bill, and we never dealt with the border, and
it was all done with this promise that Okay, guys,
don't worry. Well, we'll do the border and Ukraine will
(05:06):
be the fight. Trust me, that'll be the fight. Here
we are just another lucy in the football moment where
what we're being told is the bill that we're supposed
to allow to go to the floor is a bill
that would provide ninety five billion dollars in foreign aid
money for Ukraine, money for Israel, money for Taiwan, and
some other money for some defense priorities and a supplemental
and that that money we should just bless and have
(05:29):
a rule and vote for it, despite the fact there's
nothing for the border. You can put aside whether or
not we should do it. On the merit. You can
debate whether or not we should spend another dollar in
Ukraine at all. A lot of the Republican Conference doesn't
want to do that, but have that debate. That's fine.
But we were always promised that we would secure the
border of the United States. First. That's not happening. And
(05:50):
in that ninety five billion dollars is about eight billion
we're told we're sillig at the text. Eight billion dollars
that would be we haven't seen the text and maybe
clear eight billion dollars it would be for money that
would go to Ukraine and a kind of a you know,
for whatever it wants to use it for government funding bureaucrats.
Another nine billion is for humanitarian assistance, which we know
(06:11):
could be used to backfill for you know, Hamas and
Gaza and use for other nefarious purposes. So yet again
we're doing the bidding of the Democrat Party. There's a
reason Chuck Schumer said it's a great bill. There's a
reason that Huckeing Jeffers has said it's a great bill.
And there's reason that Joe Biden has said it's a
great bill. It's because it's their bill. I don't understand it.
That's where we are, Okay, Chip.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
Can you explain something conceptually before we get to the
fiasis stuff and everything else. I understand we don't have
four hundred and thirty five Chip Roys in the House
of Representatives. I get that. I understand we don't have
a bunch of you on the Republican ticket. I understand that.
I get that there are a bunch of weenie losers
in our party. I understand that. But these are only
Democrat bills, as you've pointed out, and I know that
(06:53):
it is the tiniest majority. I understand all this, But
there have been no Republican priority at all passed Chuck Schumer.
This is the second time he's bragged about what we passed.
Last time he went on the Senate floor and bragged
that we didn't have to cut a nickel. They continuously
brag about what we do. Can you explain why this
(07:14):
is happening?
Speaker 2 (07:16):
One word? Fear And when Republicans operate in fear. Fear
of shut down, right, fear of default on the debt
when you're talking about the debt stealing increased last year,
you know, fear in this case of what happens to Israel,
what happens to Ukraine. As I said, I have a
lot of you know, a soft spot in my heart
(07:38):
for Israel and for making sure we stand with Israel
when this president won't. Right, this president is basically you know,
thumbing his nose at Israel, leaving Israel and Prime Minister
Nya who trying to vent for himself when this you know,
administration literally abstained in the Security Council and in a
vote that would force you know, a ceasefire or pressure
them to sea Spire and I to be able to say, hey,
(08:01):
let's throw something here to support Israel when this administration
wall but we tried last night. Does he to say
let's just have a singular vote on just Israel. And
we were working hard to try to get the votes together.
There's a lot of Republicans that are skeptical of that.
But we tried to work it out and say we
could go do that, but you know, the Speaker didn't
choose that path. Instead, we're going to go with this bill,
(08:22):
which was all pre cooked. It's the same as the
Senate bill for the most part, almost one hundred billion dollars.
The Defense Department comes in and says, well, if we
don't do this, Ukraine will fall. If we don't do this.
You know, something battle happened to Israel. So again back
to my point, it's one word. It's fear. We are
you know, we don't govern, but we are operating in
a representative body out of fear. And when you do that,
(08:43):
you lose. If you signal to the other side, well, no,
we're never going to shut down, or oh well, we
will always vote to fund is Ukraine or Israel without
respect to the border. Right, if we're not going to
do a default when we're not going to go there.
Every time you do that, you lost all your leve
so you might as well just quit and give them
your voting card.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
We don't have two GOP members who are talking about
bouncing Mike Johnson. I can bounce him or don't bounce him.
I don't give a crap. I don't see anything changing
either way. But is Mike Johnson going to be bounced?
If he does get bounced, where do we go from here?
What's happening with all this?
Speaker 2 (09:24):
Yeah? And I don't know. It is my very direct
answer on that I didn't support vacate McCarthy last fall
because of this process. I knew what would happen. There's
a funny story one of my former member, he's a
friend of mine. He said, after John Bayner was deposed,
and like John Baner was doing a lot of stuff
I didn't like, and Paul Ryan was a speaker, and
Paul Ryan was doing stupid stuff. Bayner saw this guy
(09:45):
in a local diner and he walked in and goes, hey,
what's wrong. You know so and so, same crap, different speaker,
he said, a different word. And you know the reality
of this town is that it wants to do the
same thing. Here's the good name. We have a bigger
block of people now who want to say no, A
bigger block of people willing to take the arrows of
saying you don't get to keep doing this. We're not
(10:07):
winning yet. We may not win fast enough for the
iceberg to hit the Titanic, but we are a bigger
group of us are grabbing that steering wheel and trying
to rest it away from the establishment blob here. That
gave you the psory authorization with no warrants, it's giving
you this massive ninety five billion dollars supplemental to continue
to perpetuate war with no clear mission and without making
(10:27):
sure we have a secure border ourselves. That gave you
the massive spending bill that frankly, not even a majority
of Republicans voted for two weeks ago because it's filled
with all sorts of earmarks, ridiculous spending two hundred million
dollars for an FBI headquarters after the FBI is being
weaponized against the American people and the former president. I
could go on and on, Jesse. That's the bottom line.
We'll see what happens with the Speaker. I'm not interested
(10:49):
in chaos for chaos sake. I'm not interested in perpetuating
the same crap here. But I'm going to keep fighting
on policy and then we'll see what happens on the
speaker front.
Speaker 1 (10:59):
Yeah, I'm glad you talked about us gaining groundship because
as frustrated and angry as I am, and as you
well know, I've been trying to explain to my audience
that we are getting better. Are we going to get
better fast enough? I don't know. But FISA, obviously we're
pretty much screwed on that, and you can update us there.
But FISA was at least a struggle. Fiza's never really
been a struggle in my lifetime since FISA came around,
(11:20):
and it was it was a struggle this time to
get it through. Now, obviously we're turbo screwed with that
whole thing, But maybe next time we get even better.
Speaker 2 (11:28):
Am I wrong? Jesse? That's the exact right perspective, And
you often have the right perspective, and I appreciate it
that you know. I go back and I look at
it this way. In two thousand and nine, you had
the whole Obama fiasco. What happened if the tea party
comes in, what do you get? You get Marco Rubio
instead of Charlie christ In Florida, Charlie Criss ultimately became
the Democrat nominee against Ron DeSantis, and he was the favorite,
(11:50):
you know, candidate for the Republican establishment. So we got
Marco Rubio. We got Mike Lee instead of Bob Bennett,
the established Canada, Utah, we got Ram Paul instead of
Trade raising a Kentucky. The next we got Ted Cruz
instead of David Doers. Then we got the Freedom Caucus
founded in twenty fourteen. Then we got Donald Trump, who
comes in to drain the swamp in twenty sixteen. Twenty
twenty was a mass. We dealt the COVID mass. We
(12:11):
had a great hearing yesterday, by the way, highlighting all
the stupid you know, COVID tyranny. And now fast forward
and now we're dealing with the struggle. We had the
fight over the speaker last year. We're building the Freedom Caucus.
More eyes are being opened. You're right. We had a
two d two hundred and twelve to two hundred and
twelve vote on FIZA to force a warrant last week,
and that's a really big deal. We were able to
(12:33):
get reforms, force change, force the question. We're winning. I
just I just don't know if it's fast enough. So
everybody out there to take heart. You got to get
out there and get active in primaries, and you got
to hold your members accountable. Don't listen if you burn
their phones down it.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
Chip before we let you go. Talk about this COVID
hearing yesterday, because I watched a whole bunch of that.
It was outstanding.
Speaker 2 (12:56):
Yeah, it was great. We had the Surgeony General at Florida,
doctor Latappoe. We had Harmony Billan and Harmey said a
bunch of the litigation on all the lockdowns and the
violations of the First Amendment and religious liberty and shutting
down churches as well as shutting down individual's livelihoods. Doctor
Latipo testified about you know a lot of the you know,
crazy issues with the vaccines, about how all the liability
(13:16):
protections for these big farming companies is perpetuating that stuff,
how all of this tyranny and shutting down our way
of life was completely unacceptable, and how we need to
keep shining a light on it. We had great participation.
Thomas Massey asked great questions. We had a wonderful woman
who from Kentucky who her son had gotten you know,
behind in school because it was shut down, and she
started an organization. Look, the American people are waking up.
(13:38):
Riley Gaines is fighting back, Chloe Cole fighting the transgender nonsense.
Scott Smith, the dad in Loud and County Mark out
telling the FBI to pound sand. We need the American
people to keep standing strong. I'm going to do everything
I can to throw sand in the gears up here.
We need a stronger Texas and I think there are
some changes of foot in Austin, so you know, keep
the faith. You know, we had a Secretary of Treasury
(13:59):
and a vice president dueling in the streets two hundred
and twenty years ago, so you know we've been conflicted before.
But what we don't need is spending money. We don't
have continuing endless wars, wide open borders, all of this
woke DEI nonsense killing our soul. We need to get
back to Americad, the rule of law, secure border sovereignty,
a military that kills people and blows things up. And
I'm going to keep giving that narrative out there and
(14:21):
hopefully we can convince some people in our direction. But
you got to keep the faith we're called to. You
can't quit, Yeah, Amen, can't quit. Chip, appreciate you as
always brother. All right, You ready to start winning.
Speaker 1 (14:35):
You know you you have the power to affect everything
you see out there, and we're going to discuss that next.
Before we discuss that, let's discuss this. As Chip just said.
Things aren't getting better, but very very slowly, and we
might not turn the ship in time. We really might
(14:58):
not financially. Look, they're not going to write the ship.
They're not. Why do you think. Look, I'm looking at
a headline right here, gold shining bright like a diamond
and could reach three thousand per ounce. That's from city.
Why do you think that is? Why do you think
Nation States finance giants? Why do you think they're hoovering
(15:21):
up all the gold and silver they possibly can right now?
Do you think maybe they know something that's coming? You
need to do the same. Now, you're not made of money.
I understand that Oxford Gold Group is for normal people.
They'll get it in your retirement account to make sure
your four to one K isn't wiped out. They'll get
physical gold or silver, I don't care what color it
(15:41):
is in your possession. They mail it to you. It's easy.
You don't need a bank vault for it. It's all anonymous,
it's all insured. But it's something in your physical possession.
Call Oxford Gold Group. I promise you this. Every day
you wake up you read a new Finance headne You'll
sleep a little better at night knowing you did eight
(16:04):
three three nine nine five Gold. Tell him Jesse told
you to call. It will take care of you. I promise.
I love these guys. Eight three three nine nine five Gold.
We'll be back. Are you politically involved? You're probably answering, Yes,
(16:29):
you're politically involved. How politically involved are you? Is it
just watching I'm right every night? Not that I want
you to stop doing that? Do you maybe have a
maga hat? Not that I want you to stop doing that?
I'm voting drump Not that I want you to stop
doing that. But is that the extent of your political involvement.
(16:50):
I'm gonna explain something, just very briefly, because we're gonna
move on. We have so much else we need to
talk to. But this country will not be saved from Washington.
It won't be saved by it won't be saved by
Trump in the White House. It's not possible. It's two broken,
it's too corrupt, it's too gone. But this country can
be saved by you. If we would engage, we can
(17:13):
save the country. Let me explain. Do you know why
there's a drag Queen's Story hour and red towns all
across the United States of America? Do you understand why?
The real reason why? Because the Communists are politically involved.
We think we are, but they actually are. We vote
(17:33):
for president once every four years. We post on social media.
Speaker 4 (17:36):
I love Trump.
Speaker 1 (17:37):
But do you go to school board meetings? Do you
get on your city parks department, city council? When's the
next committee meeting in your town? Your town has one?
I promise you a commission, a committee meeting. When is
the next one? Do you even know? All this information
is publicly available. The communist does know. He'll be at
(17:59):
those meetings. He'll be filling your committee. I know you
have a ten thousand person town and Jesse. You don't
understand we're fine here. There's only twenty communists here. Yes,
but the twenty communists are all the ones in power.
There is a difference, a monumental difference between majority and power.
Those are two totally opposite things, the right things, they're
(18:21):
the same, they are not. Now that's the bad news.
The good news is you can take back that power.
The soft underbelly of communism in the United States of
America is their hold on local politics. They took your
school board, they took your city council. They're on the committees,
they're on the commissions, they're in the parks department. But
they're so safe there. They feel so safe because you
(18:44):
never got involved before. But what if tonight, on the
way home from work, instead of driving by city hall,
what if you pulled in, found out when the next
public meeting was made a plan you ten friends to
show up. What if that is how we save the
Unit of States of America, Because that is you know that,
get involved. That's how we'll save the country. Actually involved,
(19:07):
all right, all right, now, save yourself as well, save
yourself from physical harm. I am sad that I even
have to come on the air and talk about this,
But the truth is, you really need to keep a
burnup pistol launcher on you at all times. You really
(19:28):
genuinely do a burn A pistol launcher should be on
you when you drive, It should be by your bed
when you sleep, if you're out for a jog, if
you're walking the dog, it should be on you. This
is a non lethal pistol launcher. It shoots pepper balls
or tear gas balls. It will stop a very very bad,
very violent man in his tracks. And you need one
(19:50):
of these things. It's legal in all fifty states, So
you can' I Jesse, I can't. I'm in California. It's
legal in all fifty states. No background checks, no permits.
They will mail it to you. Wat teams across America
are using Burna products. These things are the highest quality
and it will save your life ten percent off at
burna dot com slash Jesse. We'll be back.
Speaker 5 (20:22):
And so as I speak to people in my state
or around the country, it's very clear abortion it's not
just on the ballot in places like Arizona and Florida,
it is on the ballot in all fifty states.
Speaker 1 (20:37):
Yeah, we have a problem in this country. We love abortion,
and that is a problem. It's a despicable, demonic act
to harm the unborn. It is at any stage, any stage,
it's despicable, it's disgusting. And yet in American culture today
they love it. They love it so much. Democrats campaign
(20:57):
on it almost exclusively. Joining me. Now, Iby row Off,
big fan, creator of classically Abby abby. How how do
we get to a place in the country where it's
not even a left right thing anymore? Half the right
is joined them. It's just well, I mean it's it's
a well, maybe fifteen weeks, I don't know. Just butcher
it here. Oh that's fine. How do we turn into
such cowards with the most defenseless among us. I don't
(21:21):
understand that. I don't get it.
Speaker 6 (21:23):
I think it really comes down to the idea that
people are devoted to themselves over everything else, the idea
of expressive individualism with which Carl Truman writes about Carl
sh Truman writes about in his books.
Speaker 4 (21:35):
I mean the idea that.
Speaker 6 (21:37):
You are most important, and it doesn't matter if it
comes at the cost of a life, it doesn't matter
if it comes at the cost of anything. You need
to put yourself first. And so you see people on
the right and the left putting women who are making
poor choices right, because how the high ninety percent of abortions,
I don't know if that's the correct percentage, but the
(21:59):
most majority of abortions are done because women just want
to do them. It's not there's an emergency, it's not
for any other reason. Then oh, I slept with someone
and now I.
Speaker 4 (22:09):
Don't want this baby.
Speaker 6 (22:11):
Because of that, we have people women just getting rid
of their children's lives.
Speaker 4 (22:16):
And the truth is that a woman who aborts her
baby isn't a mother. It isn't not a mother. She
is a mother.
Speaker 6 (22:23):
It's that she's a mother to a dead child. Which
I feel so sorry for these women that they don't
know it until they do it, because we know that
there's a like post abortion syndrome of women realizing, oh,
I've made a terrible, terrible mistake, but.
Speaker 4 (22:36):
You can't know it until you've done it.
Speaker 6 (22:37):
In this culture, unfortunately, it's not something we can just
tell people anymore. And really all of this stemmed from
when birth control became so easily accessible, right, because as
soon as you have birth control easily accessible, women can say,
I don't need to relate sex with having a baby.
Sex and you know, pregnancy are completely separate ideas, which
(23:00):
of course is not true because even when you're taking abortion,
even when you're taking birth control, there's a very high
chance that you could get pregnant, or a small chance
or whatever, you know, depending on what kind of birth
control you're using. So once we've mentally separated birth, separated
sex from pregnancy. Then when you have irresponsible sex and
(23:23):
you get pregnant, you're like, well, I guess I might
as well.
Speaker 4 (23:26):
Just get rid of this baby.
Speaker 2 (23:29):
Abby.
Speaker 1 (23:30):
I need to ask you a question because I'm not
a woman and you very much are one. I believe
that God makes us with certain instincts. I just believe
we're created that way. As a man, I have instincts
to protect certain things. As a woman, maybe I'm just
blessed to have a great mother and I did my wife.
I watch what she does for our sons, like she'll
kill herself just to make sure they have a good
(23:51):
birthday party or something like that. There's nothing she wouldn't
do with them. I think about women and their babies,
as women will lay down and die for their babies.
In nature, it's like this, grizzly bears will die. They
do all the time protecting their young. Yet what happened
to American women or women of the West. And I'm
not absolving men, I'm really not. But how is that
(24:11):
not just something built in whatever the actress tells you
were the latest Democrat politician? How is that? I always
thought it was built in clearly I was.
Speaker 6 (24:19):
Wrong, you know, I think it has it comes down
to a culture of irresponsibility. When as a mother, yes,
there is absolutely an inherent, innate.
Speaker 4 (24:31):
Connection to your child.
Speaker 6 (24:32):
But even for a lot of women I know who
have had children and you know, have children here, it's
hard for them to understand how important that role is.
Speaker 4 (24:42):
Right because I've talked to so many women.
Speaker 6 (24:43):
I'm a stay at home mom with my two sons,
and I will tell people, you know, I love being
home with them. I'm considering homeschooling, and they're like, oh,
I can't imagine being home with my kids all day.
Speaker 4 (24:53):
I could never. I could never do that.
Speaker 6 (24:55):
And so, of course they still absolutely adore their kids,
but there's this there's this la of like we've really.
Speaker 4 (25:02):
Divorced women from motherhood.
Speaker 6 (25:04):
We've made women afraid of being mothers, of being completely
responsible for their children, and so.
Speaker 4 (25:11):
They kind of eschew that responsibility for.
Speaker 6 (25:14):
Everything we've been raised to do instead fulfill our potential
by going out and getting a job, or going out
and pursuing our dreams. When being a mother is the
best thing you can do, and it is really, It
fulfills every dream and fulfills every potential of women. And unfortunately,
really we've really come into an era, a time where
(25:36):
women are not taught that they're taught that being a
mother only holds you back, and even if you are
a mother, you can This is a phrase I've heard
a lot lately, which is, oh, you can be a
mother and pursue your dreams. That's even used on the
pro life side, and I like it as an idea,
But the truth is a lot of the time, being
a mother can preclude following your dreams because your child
(25:59):
is more important than whatever you've been told is your dream,
and your child becomes your dream. And that is a
beautiful concept that we really have lost.
Speaker 5 (26:09):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (26:09):
Really, it's something that you see all the time out there.
You don't have to choose. No, actually you do have
to choose. Oftentimes, you very much do have to choose. Okay,
that's women. Let's talk about men. Men have a very
important role in this discussion. They should not remove themselves
in this discussion. They should not bow before these dirty
COMMI baby hating women. When it comes to this discussion,
(26:31):
men have an important role to protect these children. Young
men today, young men I talk to all the time.
They email my show they don't want to be dads. Abby. Now,
I talk all the time about how great it is
to be a dad, even though I suck at it,
I love it. Why don't young men want to be dads?
Speaker 4 (26:46):
I think they're afraid of women.
Speaker 6 (26:51):
I think they're afraid that women are going.
Speaker 4 (26:54):
To tell them they're doing it wrong. We are, you know.
Speaker 6 (26:58):
Again, the culture we live in is very pro female,
even though you're going to hear the antithesis of that
on the left. And so women are often put in
a position of being like, oh, you're doing it wrong.
Oh you're not a good enough father. Oh you're not
doing things.
Speaker 4 (27:12):
Right, And that's not true.
Speaker 6 (27:14):
Men are different than women, as it should be. Fathers
are incredibly important to their children, and for the opposite
reasons that women are.
Speaker 4 (27:23):
Right.
Speaker 6 (27:23):
Women are there to nurture and take care of their children,
and fathers are there to put risk into their lives
and play with them and make it like a little
dangerous so that their kids know they can take risks
and still live. And a lot of women don't want
to see that, so they're telling their husbands you're doing
it wrong, You're doing everything wrong.
Speaker 4 (27:40):
And so men look at.
Speaker 6 (27:42):
You know, their dads who maybe are not able to
interact with their children in that masculine way, and maybe
they're seeing, oh, this doesn't look like a lot of fun.
It looks like I would have to be feminized as
a father and that doesn't look fun.
Speaker 4 (27:57):
Whereas with my husband, you know.
Speaker 6 (27:59):
Fatherhood is so much fun for him because I'm like, yeah, like.
Speaker 4 (28:02):
Throw our kid on the floor, that's hilarious. Like he
loves it.
Speaker 6 (28:05):
He loves being thrown in the air, he loves scraping
his knee, he loves not being completely in a bubble
and protected all the time. That's what fathers can bring.
I think that's an element. I also think that a
lot of guys they don't know that that parenthood is fun.
We've been shown right that again this is for women
(28:27):
and men. We've been shown this picture that parenthood is
the end of your fun, that you don't get to
do things on your own schedule anymore, you don't get
to have nights out, and you don't get to you know, it.
Speaker 4 (28:39):
Feels like an end rather than a beginning, right.
Speaker 6 (28:41):
Having children is so much the beginning of your life,
not the end at all. And I recently heard something
that I thought was just so moving. Is that a
lot of the times, even now, for men who do
have children, for women who do have children, we.
Speaker 4 (28:54):
Think of it as a stage of life.
Speaker 6 (28:56):
We think of it as, oh, you have your your
young kids, so maybe you only have two.
Speaker 4 (29:00):
This stage of life is short, and then you can
get back into.
Speaker 6 (29:03):
Your normal life, your normal life of being able to
go out and party whenever you want. Of course, it's
going to be a little different with kids and as
you get older, but it's more on your own schedule
rather than a way of life.
Speaker 4 (29:17):
That having children is a way of life. And that's
why there are.
Speaker 6 (29:19):
Some people out there who I totally respect, and I
hope to be among them, who just continuously have children,
because they think of it as a way of.
Speaker 4 (29:28):
Life, not a stage of life.
Speaker 6 (29:30):
And it's not like, oh, I just need to get
through this so that I can get back to my normalcy.
Speaker 1 (29:35):
Yeah, being a dad it's the best thing I ever did.
Speaker 2 (29:38):
Abby.
Speaker 1 (29:39):
I would talk to you all day if I could,
but I cannot. I appreciate you very much, Thank you
so much for having All Right, we're going to talk
to somebody who used to be that liberal white woman
we talk about all the time. That nutjob woman, the
dirty comedy who's destroying the country, and.
Speaker 2 (29:53):
She woke up.
Speaker 1 (29:55):
What's her story? How'd she wake up? How'd she start
talk about that?
Speaker 7 (29:59):
No?
Speaker 1 (29:59):
Moment before we talked about that. Let's talk about this.
There are three things, three things you never short change
yourself on in life. Three things you know. Those three
things are your tires on your vehicle. Your life depends
on it, the life of your family, the life of
families around you. Buy good tires, you're betting you spend
(30:21):
a third of your life in bed. And anything that
goes on your feet. Your feet are everything. That's why
I talk to you about gravity to fire. What is it? Well,
first of all, you need to understand custom or orthopedics.
That's what comes with gravity to fire, custom orthopedics. Your
(30:42):
feet are different than my feet. Your feet hurt at
the end of the day, whether you're chasing the kids
around or walking on your job or whatever. Your feet
hurt on the end at the end of the day
because they're not made for your feet. They're made for
everyone's feet. Go experience something totally different, no foot pain,
no aching at the end of the day. Go and
(31:02):
save a bunch of money while you do it. Gd
f y dot Com promo code Jesse. These are the
greatest shoes you will ever put on your feet. You're
gonna end up buying ten pair. Okay, ged e f
y promo code Jesse, We'll be back. It is crazy
(31:29):
how crazy things are. I know that's a terrible way
to put that, but think about this. Think about this
for a moment. We now live in a country year
twenty twenty four where dudes beat up women in sports regularly.
This is something that happens regularly, and it shouldn't left
because it's not funny that one mma chick got her
skull beaten in high school volleyball girl still has concussion problems.
(31:53):
Some dude spiked a ball off of her face. This
happens in front of our eyes regularly, and not only
is there no outrage about it, everyone's just kind of
moved on. I mean, the mainstream people. I know you're
mad about it. President put out a statement yesterday. Women
in sports continue to push new boundaries that inspire us
all but right now we're seeing that even if you're
(32:14):
the best, women are not paid their fair share. It's
time to give our daughters the same opportunities as our
sons and ensure women are paid what they deserve. Joining
me now, Jennifer Gelardi, Culture, health and policy writer, Jennifer
President is very, very concerned about women, especially in sports,
getting equal treatment, is it he?
Speaker 8 (32:36):
Yeah, Well, if he was, then he'd say something about
the men and women's sports, but he doesn't. He celebrates
the day of transgender visibility on a very sacred holy
day for many of us.
Speaker 7 (32:49):
So they don't seem to be too concerned with equality.
Speaker 8 (32:53):
They are, they have a different, different definition of it,
to be sure, Jennifer.
Speaker 1 (33:00):
It seems like I only have my perspective as a dude,
but as a woman. Does it seem like this stuff
happened fast? I'm only forty two years old. I'm not ancient,
and life was really normal for most of my life,
and now there are dudes with penises in women swimming,
and I don't understand. Doesn't this seem like it happened instantly?
Speaker 7 (33:22):
It does until you look back.
Speaker 8 (33:23):
And I wrote a piece actually in the Epoch Times
entitled save the Tomboys. How decades of liberal sexual ideology
is erasing women? And so if you trace it back,
it's not the first wave feminist movement. Obviously that was
a worthwhile pursuit to allow women to vote, to make
sure we weren't defined as property anymore of our husbands.
(33:46):
But it was really that third wave feminism that no
longer celebrated women for being women and our unique capabilities
and being mothers and wives and having the to go
in the workforce.
Speaker 7 (34:01):
But it really it.
Speaker 8 (34:04):
Harvey Mansfield wrote this book called Manliness, and he talks
about it went from this desire to protect women and
to stand up for what women can bring to the table,
to this desire to like that women can be anything.
Speaker 7 (34:20):
Right, there are no boundaries for women anymore.
Speaker 8 (34:22):
We can be anything and even nothing, that our actual
thing that makes us feminine is worth nothing anymore. We
can have sex like a man, we can work like
a man.
Speaker 7 (34:34):
So it's this.
Speaker 8 (34:35):
Kind of progressive ideology of there are no boundaries.
Speaker 7 (34:38):
There is no truth.
Speaker 8 (34:39):
I just heard saw a Twitter post of Catherine Mayer,
I think her name is the new CEO of NPR
saying something about there are many truths, and well, there's
not many truths.
Speaker 7 (34:52):
There is one truth and then there.
Speaker 8 (34:54):
Are personal experiences and personal stories and I am now
probably fulfilling stereotype of a single woman with my cat
in the background.
Speaker 7 (35:03):
Sorry, but no, I knew that I.
Speaker 2 (35:09):
Was gonna have.
Speaker 1 (35:12):
Your You just stay where you are. Your cat is
more than welcome to join the broadcast, and if it
has anything to add, it is welcome to do. So,
you know what, Actually, let me ask you your story,
because you're you're kind of a convert to this way
of thinking over the last few years. Give us your story.
Speaker 8 (35:30):
Yeah, I grew up pretty conservative in uh, in a
small town in kind of blue collar Pennsylvania. Everybody knows
it because of the office. I grew up in Scranton.
My grandfather was a coal miner, and you know, my
dad was kind of a star football player at Penn
State and went into insurance. Very typical middle class, maybe
(35:51):
upper middle class at that point, like we'd probably be
considered poor at this point, but uh and pretty much
upper middle class, good public school education, and there was
definitely a focus to achieve and.
Speaker 7 (36:03):
To do well. And I played varsity.
Speaker 8 (36:05):
Tennis, I was a dancer, went on to a very
conservative school in the south in Virginia. But I think
part of me was kind of on this active pursuit
of fulfillment, like I was seeking something and I wasn't
finding it in the outside world, but I kept going there.
Speaker 7 (36:24):
For it, and I rebelled a little bit.
Speaker 8 (36:27):
I you know, if the things that my parents were
telling me were true, I think I wanted to find.
Speaker 7 (36:33):
Those things out for myself.
Speaker 8 (36:35):
I didn't want to just take anybody's word for it,
and so I felt very constrained kind of by this. Potentially,
I guess we want to say conservative. It felt very binding, right.
We talked about boundaries, but this, to me at that
time felt very binding. And do this go beal I
was going to I was ready to go to law school.
That's what I thought I wanted to do. My actual
(36:57):
undergrad is in public policy. I worked in DC for
a somem and I said no.
Speaker 7 (37:00):
Thank you.
Speaker 8 (37:02):
And then I moved to Alabama, which is also pretty conservative,
moved to Birmingham, and then I, you know, was still seeking,
and I went where everybody goes when they're seeking, which
is Los Angeles, and I you know, if you don't
have a solid sense of self, if you don't have.
Speaker 7 (37:24):
A true understanding of who you are and what you want.
Speaker 8 (37:26):
You can get very lost there, very easily, and very
pulled into the progressive ideology, and that's what happened.
Speaker 7 (37:32):
Like I was perfect.
Speaker 8 (37:33):
I was perfect fodder for the left right, someone who
was seeking, who probably wanted attention. And I talk about
this in my piece and the Federalists, I think we
have a lot of women walking around with daddy issues,
you know. I think women want to be adored, they
want to be loved, They have this nurturing quality, they
have this empathetic quality that can be taken advantage.
Speaker 7 (37:55):
Of by the left.
Speaker 8 (37:56):
So all of those things really put me in prime
position to be brainwashed for more for the most part.
And then I was out there and in other liberal
cities New York and Austin for about twenty years.
Speaker 7 (38:10):
I mean way fast forwarding to.
Speaker 8 (38:14):
COVID, and I made a career out of kind of
health and wellness. I was an on camera personality. I
got all these degrees. I was deep into the yoga world,
deep into spirituality, trips to India following a guru.
Speaker 7 (38:26):
I mean, it was a cult for sure.
Speaker 8 (38:29):
The more I even learned about what was going on
behind the scenes, the more confident I am and saying
that I was in a spiritual cult. And I kind
of started coming out of that right before COVID, and
then COVID hit, and something just did not feel right, Like,
for all I knew about health and nutrition, and particularly
(38:52):
when we started to see the data and who was dying,
it just didn't feel right to me.
Speaker 7 (38:58):
I the red flag really went off off when people.
Speaker 8 (39:01):
Started rushing to the store for toilet paper, and I'm like,
what this is just illogical?
Speaker 7 (39:06):
What the heck is going on? And you're telling me
at the time.
Speaker 8 (39:09):
I lived into Panga Canyon, which is just this beautiful
enclave in Los Angeles near Malibu in the mountains, and
you're telling me I can't go to the beach.
Speaker 7 (39:18):
I mean, you saw. I'm sure there.
Speaker 8 (39:20):
Were surfers that got pulled out of the water and arrested,
and I saw people jumping.
Speaker 7 (39:24):
To the other side of the street with masks on,
and that.
Speaker 8 (39:27):
Just like I think all the training I had, you
know what I say is my conservative upbringing probably saved me.
Speaker 7 (39:37):
Right.
Speaker 8 (39:37):
So logic finally started to kick in again, and then
I really went down the rabbit hole. There was another
incident that happened around the George Floyd stuff, and you know,
it's a kind of a longer story, but it made
me see the hypocrisy of the left, really, and it
(39:59):
around the whole Black Lives Matter thing and where people
were getting their information and how biased they were about it.
Speaker 7 (40:07):
And Candice OANs has a.
Speaker 8 (40:08):
Part in that story, you know, so that was interesting
and I had no idea who she was when I
first heard her, but so I, you know, we were
in lockdowns, and I took a lot of hikes around
my neighborhood because that's pretty much all I can do,
and I was listening to Joe Rogan podcast and Jordan
Peterson podcasts, and then I just.
Speaker 7 (40:27):
Started to kind of wake up.
Speaker 8 (40:29):
Like a lot of people, I think, I think COVID
in a way was somewhat of a blessing for people.
For a lot of parents, they saw what was happening
in schools, for some people kind of living in this
La la land of rainbows and unicorns out in Los Angeles,
that everything is not.
Speaker 7 (40:46):
Rainbows and unicorns.
Speaker 8 (40:49):
And then I kind of decided, you know, I'm really
interested in truth. I think I always have been. I
think that's ultimately what led me to seek things. And
I just what I was doing in my career prior
didn't feel meaningful enough anymore. And I know, I've helped
a lot of people. I've had a lot of people
(41:10):
reach out to me and compliment me on my work
and I've helped them, and that was great. But I
think I had reached the point of my career where
I'd done everything I was going to do and there
was something going on here.
Speaker 7 (41:24):
That was bigger.
Speaker 8 (41:25):
And I decided to go back to get my master's
in public policy at Pepperdine University, which was right up
the street from me, which was very convenient. And that
program what we had to read, the books we the
great books we had to read, right, it was like
a great books program. So Aristotle, a book by Matthew Crawford,
was really wonderful, and I've kind of gobbled his stuff
(41:48):
up and reading and listening and having conversations with people,
and then I came to realize, like, wow, this side
of the isle is a lot more fun, first of all,
and I'm back in reality and I can laugh again
and not everything has to be so serious, and I.
Speaker 7 (42:05):
Don't have to save the world. And along with that,
I went back to Christianity.
Speaker 8 (42:10):
So it was like all of these things like that
that weight, that burden that Jesus took off my shoulders
of needing to be the savior of the world because
someone already did that.
Speaker 7 (42:20):
I mean, it was just a massive transformation.
Speaker 8 (42:24):
And what I want to emphasize about that is that,
like I think right now, this goes beyond what we're
seeing now, goes beyond kind of Marxist ideology.
Speaker 7 (42:33):
It goes beyond the woke mind virus.
Speaker 8 (42:36):
I think there's a deep spiritual sickness and that's in
the heart and no amount of logic. This is where
I think conservatives sometimes missed the boat. There's no amount
of logic that's going to appeal somebody that is to
change their mind that is spiritually sick. You can have
these wake up claus I think COVID was one of them.
But I just think we are ill right now, and
(42:59):
it's deep illness, and it's beyond, like I said, this mind.
Speaker 7 (43:04):
Virus, although that plays a part of it.
Speaker 1 (43:06):
Yeah, No, I one hundred percent agree with you. We're
dealing with good and evil, not Republicans and Democrats. And
there's there's just so much there's something so much bigger
and deeper going on here that's well beyond you and
well beyond me. But I love your story Jennifer, you
come back and join me soon. I'm out of time
right outside to keep you here for another twenty minutes.
You are the best, question, No, no, you are the best.
(43:29):
You are the best. Come on back. I'll have you
back again soon. All right, Yeah, lighten the mood. We
have a great light in the media. You know what's
Second Amendment Day? Next? All right, let's lighten the mood.
And today did you know today was Second Amendment Day,
(43:52):
the amendment that actually guarantees all of our other freedoms.
Did you know it's not actually a piece of paper
that does it. It's the Second Amendment that does it.
That's the only reason you're not in a gulag as
we speak. And in honor of the Second Amendment, we're
gonna honor one Bob Mundon. He died back in twenty twelve.
In this dude, I used to watch his videos all
(44:13):
the time. I still see him on occasion when I'm online,
and I stop and watch every single time this dude
starts busting. And I'm telling you, this guy's fast.
Speaker 9 (44:24):
Ladies and gentlemen, the fastest gun in the world right here, Wow,
Bobby or quick?
Speaker 10 (44:34):
Well, the first reaction that people have when they see
this draws Now, wait a minute, could you really hit
anything doing that? Right? Well, let me show you my
own way with a target that that is indeed out
of the whole shit. Let me step this target up.
We'll shoot about eight feet awa because I'm shooting blanks.
Speaker 1 (44:46):
Now here we go.
Speaker 9 (44:52):
Now, in terms of time, Bob, how quick was that?
Speaker 10 (44:56):
I draw cock level fire, this gun, hit what I'm
shooting at in less than two one hundreds of one second.
Speaker 9 (45:01):
Okay, two shots gonna sound like one and he's gonna
hit both of the bullets. It still sounded like just
one shot to me. On the both of the bullets
are gone.
Speaker 1 (45:47):
That dude was amazing, And that's one little one. We
could have done the whole hour, just Bob mundin videos anyway,
Rest in peace, are happy Second Amendment Day to everybody.
We'll see them, Duplainlin
