Speaker 1 (00:02):
We're gonna talk about the world of make believe, the
Kamala Harris campaign. There is a huge story about Afghanistan,
accountability for Afghanistan, all that, so much more coming up tonight.
And I'm right, all right, before we get to the

(00:25):
world of make believe and Dome and Biden, I should
put out there that Trump is returning to Twitter or
x or whatever you want to call it.

Speaker 2 (00:34):
And look, it's a win.

Speaker 1 (00:36):
For free speech after they kicked the sitting president of
the United States off there for no reasons. It's gonna
go up there, do an interview Elon Musk.

Speaker 2 (00:44):
Good that more people get more information.

Speaker 1 (00:46):
Now let's move on and talk about other things, much
more important things than that. Let's discuss you know what,
I'm going to discuss, the Kamala Harris campaign, the Joe
Biden disaster. There we are as a society. But I'm
gonna use little story to lead you up into that.
You see, I have two sons. When I was younger

(01:10):
and they were they were much younger. We're talking little
little little kids. Think you know, two, three, four years old,
they would obviously obsess over things like superheroes. What little
boy doesn't obsess over Superman or Spider Man or the
Incredible Hulk. But they loved superheroes, comic books, movies, whatever
came out. Of course, young boys like superheroes. And when

(01:32):
they were that young, I would go and I would
tell them, because I'm a terrible father, I would tell
them that, hey, I'm the Incredible Haulk and I would
just be able to say things like that to them
and what.

Speaker 2 (01:44):
No, way, Oh that's so cool. Hey can you turn
green for us?

Speaker 1 (01:49):
And I would say no, no, no, I don't want
to hurt anybody, but I just want to let you
know your dad's the Incredible Hulk.

Speaker 2 (01:53):
I know it's kind of cruel, but it was hilarious.
And then it didn't take them long.

Speaker 1 (01:58):
As they started to get old, I would go to
them and I'd say, hey, I'm the Incredible Hulk. And
they would say, oh, that's really cool, but you'd never
we never see you turn green.

Speaker 2 (02:11):
It's kind of weird. We believe you, but you don't
really ever turn green. And then as.

Speaker 1 (02:19):
They grow a little bit older and they start to
learn to use this didn't take them long. Six seven
years old, boys, I'm the Incredible Hulk and they said, Dad, no,
you're not. You never turn green. Don't say it's because
you haven't gotten mad. We see you get mad, Dad,
You haven't turned in green. You're lying to us.

Speaker 2 (02:41):
So you see the progression. The progression.

Speaker 1 (02:44):
When they're super, super young, I could tell them anything.

Speaker 2 (02:48):
And they would believe it.

Speaker 1 (02:49):
I'd walk up to automatic doors and put my hand
out until them I had Jedi powers and the door would.

Speaker 2 (02:54):
Open and they'd say, wow, Dad's a Jedi. They'd believe anything.

Speaker 1 (02:59):
And then as they got older and older and sharper
and wiser, they started to question things and figure things out. Now,
I want you to think about American society right now,
because what you're seeing right now with the Kamala Harris
campaign is I'm gonna use the word an experiment. I'm

(03:20):
not sure if that's exactly the word I want to use,
but this is what you're seeing right now. The American
communist has for the longest time had to shade the
truth a little bit here. And he still does this
all the time, kind of use a little bit of
truth and just kind of veer off it a little

(03:40):
bit here.

Speaker 2 (03:41):
Mostly true, but then he kind of just swerves a
little bit.

Speaker 1 (03:45):
And as America has gone in reverse from my sons.
That's the point I'm trying to make here. We're going
the opposite direction. The communists is starting to figure out
more and more that he needs less and less of
that truth in order to get huge portions of the
population to believe something. So maybe he used to need

(04:09):
eighty percent truth and then he watched over the years
as that number tick down seventy sixty percent. Okay, hey,
we can tell a half truth. Now, ooh, what do
you think we could get away.

Speaker 2 (04:19):
With thirty percent? Let's try a thirty percent truth.

Speaker 1 (04:22):
And what he's trying to figure out is has he
dumbed down and demoralized our society enough of our society?

Speaker 2 (04:31):
I should say, has he dumbed.

Speaker 1 (04:33):
Down and demoralized enough of our society to the point
he doesn't need a single percentage of.

Speaker 2 (04:40):
Truth, He needs zero percent truth.

Speaker 1 (04:43):
He can just invent something out of thin air and
have enough of the American.

Speaker 2 (04:48):
People believe it.

Speaker 1 (04:50):
What you're looking at right now with the Kamala Harris
campaign is exactly that. I'm going to say something for you.
This is amazing. Kamala Harri, this is the Democrat nominee
for President of the United States of America, even though
she didn't really don't earn it either way. She's the
Democrat nominee for president of the United States of America.

(05:12):
She doesn't have policies listed none.

Speaker 2 (05:18):
Zero.

Speaker 1 (05:19):
The Democrat nominee for president doesn't have policies listed on
her website. I could pull up the small mom and
pop donut shop who just opened in my town. This
lovely old couple in this kind of ratty little shop.
I think they spent thirty five cents putting this place together.

(05:40):
They have a website with menu options on there. The
Democrat nominee for president doesn't feel the need to inform
the American people of a single policy.

Speaker 2 (05:53):
Position of hers.

Speaker 1 (05:55):
Oh, she was just asked about it here where she was,
And will please you're.

Speaker 3 (06:02):
A lot of people of the black room next week,
and it'll be focused on the economy and what we
need to do to bring down costs and also strengthen
the economy.

Speaker 2 (06:12):
Overall next week, the economy and some costs.

Speaker 1 (06:20):
And I need to point something else out That reporter
asked her a question that in and of itself is stunning,
because nobody has gotten to ask her a question. In fact,
I believe that's the third question she's been asked in
the three weeks she's been the Democrat nominee for president.

(06:44):
She won't do interviews, she won't state her policy positions.

Speaker 2 (06:48):
She is nothing, a complete, blank slate.

Speaker 1 (06:54):
She has given the American people nothing of substance, zero truth,
no facts, know nothing. How in the world could they
be that brazen, How in the world could they be
that that obvious, that blaytant, How in the world could
they do this?

Speaker 2 (07:11):
You know what, you want to put the cherry on
top of it.

Speaker 1 (07:13):
You remember, Trump's been out there a lot lately, a
lot talking about taxes on tips. Trump rants about this
all the time. There shouldn't be taxes on tips. They're
ta taxing your tips for for waitresses and things like that.
No taxes on tips, No taxes on tips. This is
not a one off. He said this many many, many
times before. Kamala Harris, to my knowledge, has never mentioned

(07:34):
once in her life eliminating taxes on tips. This was
her at a rally this weekend.

Speaker 4 (07:41):
Including to raise the minimum wage.

Speaker 5 (07:47):
And eliminate taxes on tips for service and hospitality workers.

Speaker 1 (07:56):
Hold on, what did she just take Trump's position and
act as if it's her how could she get away
with it? What you're seeing is a big experiment. And
I don't know if we're going to like the results.

(08:16):
I hope we will, and we might. I don't know
that we're going to hate the results. I don't know
that we're going to love the results. But what the Democrats?
What the communists have decided? After COVID, after so many things,
they have very clearly decided, Hey, we don't need any
truth anymore, we don't need to be anything anymore. We

(08:41):
can run an entire presidential campaign on nothing on what
do they call her.

Speaker 2 (08:46):
A brat in the beginning? What does that even mean?
On joy?

Speaker 1 (08:50):
There are headlines out there today there are campaigns focused
on joy. Or we can run an entire campaign telling
our opponents that Trump is a threat to demock CHRISTI
can they run a presidential campaign on nothing of substance
at all and still get fifty one percent of American

(09:10):
voters to support them.

Speaker 2 (09:12):
I don't know the answer to that question.

Speaker 1 (09:15):
I don't know whether or not they can, but it's
very clear at this point in time they think they can. Look,
they hit Joe Biden in a basement for four years,
five years if you count his presidential campaign. They hit
him in a basement reading off note cards, teleprompters handing
him little que cards and says, here, I'm supposed to

(09:35):
call on eh Amber with ABC. They pulled that off
for four or five years and it worked. And I say,
the American communist believes, now the truth is gone, that
he will just come up with something out of thin air.

Speaker 2 (09:53):
I mean, look at this we have.

Speaker 1 (09:55):
I want you to keep in mind before I play
this little clip of John Carl for you in mind,
that's how crazy it's gotten. The whole Kamala Harris was
borders are thing that was all done on camera. It's
that like I heard from a guy who heard from
a guy. You could right now if you wanted to,

(10:16):
you could pull up on your phone a videotape of
Joe Biden sitting beside Kamala Harris saying here she is,
it's a big deal.

Speaker 2 (10:26):
I'm putting her in charge of the border. And not
only that. They then pan over the dome and she
thanks him for it.

Speaker 1 (10:31):
For lack of a better one says, yeah, there's a
big responsibility.

Speaker 2 (10:34):
I've got it covered. This has been done on camera.

Speaker 1 (10:39):
John carrl the American media Apparatchick said.

Speaker 5 (10:41):
This, Well, John, we have to start with the fact
that we have a wide open southern border because our
borders are actually set a lot of open border policies.

Speaker 6 (10:51):
They the border zone.

Speaker 5 (10:53):
Oh, that was what the media called her flash back.

Speaker 3 (10:56):
The President put Vice President Kamala Harrison playing a critical
role in terms of trying to stop the flow of
migrants across the border.

Speaker 5 (11:06):
She had control over a lot of our border policy
at a time when they were spending the time they
were suspending deportations, they stopped Donald Trump's remained in Mexico policy,
and they reinstituted to catch her release. They basically threw
open the gates of our country. And now we have
a ton of fit and all a ton of people are.

Speaker 2 (11:26):
People.

Speaker 6 (11:27):
The first thing you.

Speaker 5 (11:28):
Have to do is to stop the bleeding.

Speaker 2 (11:33):
It was done on camera. John Carl himself was on.

Speaker 1 (11:37):
Camera, And they want to know, have we spent enough
years thumbing down and demoralizing the American people that we
can now invent something out of nothing? Well, the American
people believe that I'm the incredible Hulk. I don't know.
We will find out in November. All that may have

(11:57):
made you uncomfortable, but I am right. We are going
to talk about domes campaign with Rob Bluie next. Before
we do that, we're gonna talk about the best night's
sleep you're ever gonna have in your life, and what
makes a good night's sleep. It's not just the sleeping portion.
I know that's very obvious. You lay down, you're tired,
you close your eyes, you drift off to sleep. That,

(12:18):
of course is part of it. But how do you
know when you had a good night's sleep. You don't
know when you're sleeping. You know when you wake up.
It's how you feel when you wake up. Dreampowder from
Beam is not a bunch of chemical filth. It's natural melatonin.
Things like that. You have a little cup of hot
chocolate as you're going to bed and you just drift

(12:39):
off to sleep, and when you wake up you feel
like a million bucks. Go get some dream powder forty
percent off shotbeam dot com slash Jesse Kelly, we'll be back.

Speaker 3 (13:01):
So there's been a lot of talk about racism and whatnot.
You've faced some really nasty stuff. I saw this thing
that Nick Flentes. Of course, he's an avowed white supremacist.
He said what kind of a man marries somebody named Usha.
Clearly he doesn't value his racial identity, his heritage. I
mean this is racist.

Speaker 6 (13:20):
Garbage, Yes it is.

Speaker 3 (13:22):
But this is also a guy that dined with Donald
Trump at mar A Lago during this campaign.

Speaker 5 (13:27):
Well that Donald Trump doesn't know anything about and frankly.

Speaker 2 (13:30):
Doesn't care for.

Speaker 7 (13:31):
Nick flentis an avowed anti semi sure went after your wife.
He had previously dined at mar A Lago with Donald Trump.
Does this have any room in your movement, in the
Maga movement?

Speaker 5 (13:45):
Of course it doesn't have any room in the Magnet movement.
And of course you disavow him this, and of course
Donald Trump has criticized this person. Look, I think the
guy is a total loser. Certainly I disavow him. But
if you ask me what I care more about, is
it a person attacking me perly? Or is it government
policy that discriminates based on race? That's what I really
worry about.

Speaker 2 (14:08):
What did you notice there?

Speaker 1 (14:09):
Forget about the names and the JD Vance and the
Trump and then this guy and that?

Speaker 2 (14:12):
What did you notice there?

Speaker 1 (14:13):
You notice how notice how the reporters, the apparatics are
all on message, And notice how they're already getting us
to disavow denounce. Do you disavow things? Joining me now?
Rob Blue, President, executive editor the Daily Signal.

Speaker 2 (14:29):
Rob I For one thing. Jd Vance has done a
bang up job so far in his VP campaign.

Speaker 1 (14:35):
However, the Republicans playing the disavow game for the ten
millions time is about enough to make me want to
throw myself off a building. How do we not know
what they're doing at this point in time?

Speaker 6 (14:47):
Yeah, Jesse, thanks for having me today. You're absolutely right.

Speaker 8 (14:49):
I mean, I do appreciate jd Vance's forceful response there,
but Republicans and conservatives more broadly need to get off
of defense and go on offense. There are plenty of
things that they could be pointing out of Kamala Harris
and some of the associations that she has with left
wing agitators and fold Marxist and socialists that you don't
expect the media to ask about. So it's their opportunity

(15:11):
to bring it up and point the direction back at
her and others in the Democratic Party. Frankly, as for
what you can expect from the media going forward, exactly
this type of thing. I expect that they will continue
to point out instances where they disagree with Donald Trump
on things, and they'll try to find some tenuous association
that he's had in the past and try to connect
it in some way to his campaign, because there's an

(15:33):
understanding that there are a handful of states, and in
those handful of states, there are a certain set of
swing voters who are going to make their decision not
based on any policy issue, but probably on things that
they read or see on television and maybe Donald Trump's expost.
So you know, those are types of things that we
can expect to play forward in this campaign, and we
can't trust the media to report them.

Speaker 1 (15:55):
Rob I actually spoke kind of about that issue in
the very beginning of what the percentages are about what
you just talked about. Obviously, these filthy communists have spent
decades dumbing down and demoralizing this society so that half
the people you run into can't name the vice president,
let alone they're two US senators. Do we have a
society two full now of people who don't vote on

(16:18):
things like well, I can't afford eggs or gas. They
vote on things like Trump said something mean. It's all
a matter of percentages, And the question.

Speaker 2 (16:27):
Is what are ours?

Speaker 6 (16:29):
Well.

Speaker 8 (16:29):
Sadly, I think that you're right on that there probably
are far too many people who don't vote based on
some of the policy issues that are at stake. I mean,
we see poll after poll that shows that the economy
and inflation is the number one issue of concern.

Speaker 6 (16:43):
Who has been in.

Speaker 8 (16:44):
The White House putting forward policies that have contributed to
the situation that we're in now if none other than
Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. So you'd think that they
would reject the policies of the last four years and
move to the policies that America was thriving on under
Donald Trump. Frankly, there seems to be, if you believe
recent polls, a number of Americans who appreciate this media

(17:06):
makeover of Kamala Harrison are doing everything in their power
to try to propel her into the White House. And
so there will be Americans who do choose to not
vote on policy issues, and they will choose to vote
on those kind of superficial things they come up on
a day to day news cycle.

Speaker 1 (17:23):
Rob let's talk about these debates that are coming up. Okay,
it's ABC debate, she won't do Fox news. Let's just
assume that there's going to be one debate. I've pretty
much resigned myself to this. Now they'll have one, they'll
both kind of bail after that and call it good. Traditionally,
she's not been great at debate. Trump has been up,
He's been down. His last debate was great. He pooped

(17:44):
his pants during the first debate with Joe Biden. We
don't know which Trump we're going to get, but Dome
sucks at it.

Speaker 2 (17:50):
So I like Trump's chances on stage with her, right.

Speaker 6 (17:53):
Oh yeah, absolutely.

Speaker 8 (17:54):
I mean, well, the fact that she's avoiding any sort
of press conferences, d scrutiny, or hard interviews. I mean,
this is his one opportunity to put her on stage,
on the record and ask about some of those policy
issues that have come up in this conversation and that
she's responsible for. I mean, if I were Trump and
Trump's shoes, I would center the conversation directly on the

(18:15):
border crisis. Kamala Harris, of course, being the borders are
the one who Joe Biden put in charge of figuring
out this crisis, this situation and making it worse as
a result of the policies that were implemented under her watch,
and so I would do everything that he can over
the course of the ninety minutes or however long that
debate is to pay to contrast between what you saw
during four years of Donald Trump and what you've seen

(18:37):
over the course of the last four years now in
terms of in terms of the moderators, I think Trump
can expect a hostile walking into hostile territory there. I mean,
David Muir is probably not going to be friendly to
Trump based on what we know about ABC News's history,
and so you just have to be prepared for a
situation where you're going to be on the defensive and
you need to, as we talked about earlier, turn it
back on on Harris and make her on the defensive.

Speaker 1 (19:01):
Let's talk about Walls so far. In fact, I want
to give Tom Elliott credit for this one, putting together
this little montage.

Speaker 2 (19:08):
Here's been the media treatment of Walls.

Speaker 7 (19:11):
Midwestern Dad like super clean cut vibe, everybody likes right,
so plain spoken and relatable, his moderate and independent and
it comes pretty moderate Democrats.

Speaker 1 (19:21):
I always knew him as a moderate, one of the
most moderary moderate.

Speaker 2 (19:25):
Ragger new moderate.

Speaker 9 (19:26):
I think this is the new moderate.

Speaker 2 (19:28):
It's far from progressive.

Speaker 9 (19:29):
It's right down the middle. He's not just an old
white man.

Speaker 10 (19:32):
Walls beats America, you know, hawks like a regular person
is the opposite of weird.

Speaker 8 (19:37):
This is basically younger Joe by regular old Joe out.

Speaker 11 (19:40):
There populist approach to fear on the Republican side and
the happy populism and the happy populism that Jim Walls
is on the ticket on the Democratic side.

Speaker 5 (19:51):
Walls is a kind of happy warrior, the happy warriors,
happy warriors.

Speaker 4 (19:55):
He was certainly the happy warrior last night and seemed
to be the happy warrior last A happy warrior.

Speaker 2 (20:01):
Folksy backstore are going to be very happy warriors. There
is a new happy warrior.

Speaker 5 (20:05):
Following the kind of happy warrior, mole.

Speaker 2 (20:07):
Happy warrior, happy warrior mentality, wicked sense of humor.

Speaker 11 (20:11):
Look out having the piglets.

Speaker 2 (20:16):
It's wild to watch the hive mind at work.

Speaker 1 (20:19):
But I don't know if all this rehab is going
to outlast the stolen valor stuff.

Speaker 6 (20:24):
Rob.

Speaker 2 (20:24):
There's a lot to this, what say you, yeah?

Speaker 8 (20:27):
Well, first of all, I mean, as somebody who's worked
in the media for a while and who knows the
pack mentality. It's not necessarily surprising to see all those
journalists fawning over Tim Wallas. It's the same reaction that
you saw after Joe Biden's first debate performance, and know
all the media commentators came out and said he needed
to get on the race after defending him for so long.

(20:47):
But yes, I do think that eventually after this this
honeymoon is over, and that'll probably be after the Democratic
National Convention. At this point, there should be more scrutiny
on his record and particularly his military service. I menjate
E Vance for bringing that up. That's an issue that
you can't expect the media to necessarily focus on, and
so he's trying to do his best to raise questions

(21:08):
about his service. And I think that the other thing
that we need we need to remember here is it
was Bernie Sanders who was the one who was really
pushing Tim Walls. Bernie Sanders, of course, being a self
about socialist in the US Senate.

Speaker 6 (21:21):
You know there there says something.

Speaker 8 (21:23):
About what the guy's policies will likely be if you
have Bernie Sanders in your camp.

Speaker 1 (21:30):
Rob, I'm not one hundred percent sure he's going to
make it as the VP candidate. And I say that
because this stolen valor stuff is starting to drag down
the Harris ticket. And when you pick a VP, they're
supposed to help a little, and the very least you
stay flat. What they're never ever ever allowed to do
is drag you down for an extended period of time.

(21:53):
I know it sounds crazy, but we've already seen crazy.

Speaker 2 (21:56):
Could you see a world where they might dump this guy?

Speaker 6 (21:59):
There's the there's always the possibility.

Speaker 8 (22:01):
Look, I was there in two thousand and four when
John O'Neill and some of the other swift boat veterans
made the case against John Kerry, and that was certainly
I think the defining moment of that particular campaign.

Speaker 6 (22:11):
George W.

Speaker 8 (22:12):
Bush, remember, was in a tough environment and he was
able to run effectively against Kerry because those questions were
raised about his military service at a time when the
United States was facing some big foreign conflicts. So yes,
if this continues to be a drag on Tim Walls,
then absolutely they would kind of lose.

Speaker 6 (22:27):
Look what they did to Joe Biden.

Speaker 8 (22:28):
I mean, the Democratic Party is in this to retain
power at any cost, and if it means sacrificing Tim walls.

Speaker 6 (22:34):
I think that they would absolutely do it.

Speaker 2 (22:37):
I think they would too.

Speaker 1 (22:38):
All right, Rob, thank you brother, come back soon. I
appreciate it, all right. So my buddy Jerry Dunlevy, he
was part of well in efforts supposedly in the GOP
to get some accountability for Afghanistan, to get some justice
for the families who lost our warriors over there. Jerry

(23:01):
Dunleavy resigned this morning publicly.

Speaker 2 (23:05):
This story is ugly and it's going to make you mad.
It made me mad.

Speaker 1 (23:09):
But we're gonna talk to Jerry extensively about that next
before we do that. Speaking of talking, so we use
we all use cell phones, right.

Speaker 2 (23:19):
We text, we call.

Speaker 1 (23:20):
That's that's the modern era, kind of have to have one. Now,
let me ask you who do you pay for that
service every month? Do you pay a company who loves,
shares and promotes your values or do you pay a
company who hates you? If you have AT and T,
if you have T Mobile, if you ever risen, you

(23:42):
make a monthly payment to a company who hates your
freaking guts. If you have switched to Pure Talk, you
not only pay less. I pay half of what I
was paying a T Mobile. You not only pay less,
you're paying a company who loves you. They promote your values.
Their CEO fought for this country. No stolen valor at
pure talk, Good to pure talk dot com, slash jessetv

(24:08):
and switch. It takes ten minutes. It's easy.

Speaker 2 (24:11):
We'll be back reckoning.

Speaker 1 (24:22):
How many times have you heard me call for something
like that for various things? How many times have we
talked about that when it comes to Afghanistan and what
was done there, what was done to the troops twenty years,
twenty years of blood and misery over in that place,
and then we just ran out on a mission they
couldn't even define.

Speaker 2 (24:40):
And the way we ran out on that.

Speaker 1 (24:42):
Mission, getting another thirteen of our warriors killed right before
we vaporized ten Innis and civilians is something that should
be investigated and people should be held to account. My
friend Jerry Dunley, he wrote a book with my friend
James Hassen. The book is called Cobble. Highly recommend you
pick up that book if you want to know what
we did over there. So, Jerry, before we get to

(25:04):
what you did today with a resignation, could you please
talk about this Foreign Affairs Investigation Team investigative team.

Speaker 2 (25:13):
What were you on? How'd you get on this thing?
What were the promises? Right?

Speaker 12 (25:19):
So, before I joined the House Foreign Affairs Committee, I
was an investigative reporter, reported on Afghanistan, then wrote the
book Cobble with James hassen Fellow. Not I wasn't a veteran,
but you know Afghan war veteran James was fantastic co author.

(25:40):
After being a reporter and writing this book, I was
asked if I would come on to the committee, the
House Foreign Affairs Committee and help help them with their
investigation as a senior investigator.

Speaker 6 (25:55):
And you know what, I.

Speaker 12 (25:59):
Was old we would be doing, in fact what I
said we needed to do as part of me coming on,
as I said, Look, I I'm a reporter. I'm an
investigative reporter. I investigate things. That's what I do.

Speaker 2 (26:12):
Uh.

Speaker 12 (26:12):
If I come on, I want to be part of
something serious, something sweeping in scope, something that's going to
hold people accountable, get answers, go down every investigative avenue
that we need to go down, and with the goal
of accountability for the people that screwed this up and

(26:35):
the goal of making sure that this doesn't happen again.

Speaker 2 (26:40):
Because I Jerry.

Speaker 1 (26:41):
Can I can I positive positive just.

Speaker 2 (26:43):
For a moment? Who invited you to come on? Who was?

Speaker 1 (26:45):
Who are the people who want to today called Jerry
get on our committee?

Speaker 2 (26:48):
Who wasn't the.

Speaker 12 (26:49):
Senior staff members of the of the committee asked me
to come on?

Speaker 6 (26:52):
And I was hired.

Speaker 2 (26:55):
McCall Okay, all right.

Speaker 12 (26:57):
Yeah, well we we we met in his office, Send
talked about the investigation, and during that meeting about you know,
bringing me on, he made the same promises as as
he's made publicly. So I'm not really giving anything even
really away here that you know, the investigation is going

(27:18):
to leave no stone unturned, uh, that we're going to
do everything in our power to get answers about what happened,
answers for the Abbygate gold Star families, And.

Speaker 6 (27:28):
Look, I I don't want to be here.

Speaker 12 (27:32):
I I truly wish that the the promises that that
Chairman McCall made were followed, followed through on. I wish
that I was coming on your show to talk about
all the incredible things that the investigation had found, all
the people we had held accountable. But unfortunately, ah, that

(27:54):
didn't happen. It's not just that those promises weren't kept.
It's that at there was not even a real effort
to keep those promises.

Speaker 1 (28:06):
So the committee, well, sorry to interrupt. That leads me
to what you did today, because we haven't even gone
into that yet.

Speaker 2 (28:15):
What did you do today publicly? And why?

Speaker 1 (28:18):
And I swear I won't to interrupt again. The floor
is yours, Jerry, tell us what happened?

Speaker 12 (28:23):
Yeah, so today I did. Actually, on Friday, I sent
in my letter of resignation. I resigned in protests from
the Committee. I made that public today after speaking with
the Abby eight gold Star families, letting them know kind

(28:43):
of what, you know, what I what I had done,
and what I was planning to do.

Speaker 4 (28:48):
It.

Speaker 12 (28:49):
It had to be done. The Committee is not doing
the basic things that needs to do. The things that
we have done oftentimes have been treating people with kid gloves.
People that share a big piece of responsibility for what happened.
Are hearing with Zaume Calizad, who was the US's top

(29:15):
negotiator with the Taliban in twenty twenty and in twenty
twenty one. So President Biden kept him on an nefarious guy.
All the evidence points that this guy is a bad actor.
And when we brought him in, we treated him with
kid gloves, and that was extremely disappointing. We brought in

(29:38):
Chairman Million, Chairman and General Mackenzie, the two highest ranking
military officials at the time of the withdrawal in twenty
twenty one. They share their own piece of the blame
as well, and the committee, the Chairman and the Committee,
in my view, deliberately let them off the hook. And

(30:05):
so the things that we have done, we have not
done in a serious way. And there are tons of
things that I've been insisting for many, many, many many
months that we do questions that we need to ask.
We failed to bring in the top military commanders on
the ground during the NEO, that would be General Donahue,
General Ferrell Sullivan, Rear Admiral Vaisley. I've been saying for

(30:29):
many months that we need to bring these guys in.
They're the ones that can talk about interactions with the Taliban.
They're the ones that can talk about whatever agreements or
deals the US military reach to rely on the Taliban
to provide security outside of that airport. They're the ones
that can tell us about the Taliban sometimes refusing to

(30:52):
do what we asked during the evacuation, the Taliban beating
up Americans, the Taliban beating up and killing our Afghan allies,
These things happening within view of our marines at the gates.
They can talk about us asking the Taliban to search
or raid isis K locations in Cobble during the evacuation

(31:15):
and the Taliban telling us no, I mean and this
is what I'm giving you. Here is just a thin
slice the tipicy iceberg in terms of the things that
we should have been doing, the basic things if we
wanted to get answers and accountability for the gold Star families,
for all of the U S service members that have
died in this twenty year war, for all of their

(31:36):
gold Star families, and for the American public. Because I
am I am worried that the US government, State Department,
the Pentagon, the intelligence community, they have not learned their
lessons because they haven't had to, because no one's been

(31:57):
held accountable. So accountability is important for its own sake.
But I am extremely worried that without the lessons learned
and without the accountability, something much worse is going to happen.
We are going to be in a potentially serious war
with a great power in the near future, and if

(32:18):
we don't learn these lessons, there's going to be a
lot more gold star families, a lot more unnecessary gold
star families. And so that is why, after a lot
of soul searching, I thought that it was best to
blow the whistle on the inaction and incompetence of the

(32:39):
committee and to tell people what's going on, what they
need to know, and to try and get this out
in the public so that people know that their elected
representatives are not not doing real oversight and not holding
people accountable the way they should be.

Speaker 1 (33:03):
Jerry, I applaud you, guys always. My man takes guts
to do what you did. I'm really really glad you
did it. Please keep after him, don't let up, brother,
I appreciate you. How many times have you heard me
say we're going to lose a major war and when
something twice is terrible happens next time, it's going to

(33:24):
be because of things like this. And I wanted to
remind you that's a Republican committee. Jerry resigned from today,
Republican led committee. All right, talk a little bit more
about walls and other things like his pro life record next.

Speaker 10 (33:51):
And my record is so pro choice, Nancy Pelosi asked
me if I should tone it down. I stand with
Planned Parenthood and we want.

Speaker 2 (34:02):
I'm starting to love this guy. Just such a world
class scumbag. He's dragging down the whole ticket.

Speaker 1 (34:08):
Joining me now Doctor Abby Johnson, former director of Planned Parenthood,
now the foremost pro life advocate in the country CEO
of then there were done, then there were none ministries.
Easy for me to say, Abby, tell me about Tim Walls.
His stolen valor obviously has gotten a lot of pub
and justifiably.

Speaker 2 (34:27):
So what is this guy's record on the unborn.

Speaker 4 (34:31):
Yeah, it's terrible. I mean it's about as bad as
you can be. He supports abortion up until the date
of birth and has voted that way multiple times. So
he does not support to even providing healthcare, I mean
just basic healthcare to babies that are born alive after

(34:56):
a failed abortion attempt. So we know in these abortion facilities,
these killing centers, that if a baby is born alive
typically which we know the CDC reports every year that
about four hundred babies are born alive after a failed

(35:19):
abortion attempt every single year. Okay, Tim Walls does not
believe that these babies should be provided with basic health
care in order to keep them alive. Okay, so he
agrees with the former Virginia governor, Governor Northam, who says,
you know what, we just allow the doctor and the

(35:42):
patient to decide what happens to that baby. Well, that
could be infanticide. And we know from former abortion clinic
testimonies that the most typical two ways that they would
kill a baby that's born alive after a failed abortion
attempt would be to either drown the baby in a
bucket or to take scissors and to slit the back

(36:07):
of the baby's spinal cord to kill the baby that way.
And that is what Tim Wall supports.

Speaker 1 (36:15):
I mean, as hard as that is to hear and
just imagine that that happens here, could you tell me
how often we think that happens here?

Speaker 4 (36:26):
Well, I mean, the CDC says, they cite that about
four to five hundred babies are born alive every single year.
That these are viable babies. So these are babies that
could live on their own outside of the mother's wombs.
So these are late term abortions. These are healthy babies

(36:48):
born to healthy moms. You know, the CDC is reporting
that so I would say we could probably dripple that
because that's just what's being reported, and that's what's being reported.

Speaker 9 (37:03):
By abortion clinics.

Speaker 4 (37:05):
Okay, this is self reporting, so we know that self
reporting is the least accurate reporting measure. So, I mean,
we really have no idea, but we know it's at
least four to five hundred a year.

Speaker 2 (37:21):
God have mercy.

Speaker 1 (37:23):
All right, let's switch gears here and talk about planned parenthood.
Back in the news courtesy of Life News for selling
baby parts, Abby, could you explain to me why why
is there a market for baby part Who's buying baby parts?

Speaker 6 (37:38):
What?

Speaker 2 (37:40):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (37:41):
So this was released by Center for Medical Progress. This
was something that David de Lighten has sat on for
a while. It was he was put under a gag
order by a California judge.

Speaker 9 (37:57):
Shocker, California.

Speaker 4 (38:00):
They did not want him to release the rest of
the footage that he had kind of in a vault.
He did finally release it.

Speaker 6 (38:08):
Now.

Speaker 4 (38:08):
I do want to tell you, Jesse, these women, tram
Win and Ann Shooting, they are both women that I
worked with closely when I worked at Planted Parenthood. They
worked for my affiliate plant parentoed Gulf coast. I also

(38:29):
want to confirm that as they talk about, you know,
ripping off the legs of the babies so that it
won't be considered a partial birth abortion, you know, as
they so callously talk about this while they're having drinks

(38:50):
and orders and sitting down over dinner. I do want
to say that, yes, they are as callous as they
appear to be. I want to say say yes, when
I worked in the industry, I was as callous as
as they are. That is, it is a it is

(39:11):
a horrific, barbaric industry. And you know, only the Lord
can soften that sort of heart of stone into a
heart of flesh, which is what he did for me.
But these these videos have been released the people buying

(39:31):
these sorts of baby parts, which is very this is
very real. This, this sort of research was done while
I was there. We actually were selling bodies to companies.
One that we sold to was called Amphioxist Cell Technologies,
which has since gone under or it's been renamed, and

(39:54):
we were selling them for hundreds of dollars per baby
that we sold to them.

Speaker 9 (39:58):
That's on top of the.

Speaker 4 (40:00):
Amount of money that we're already receiving from the woman
for her abortion, right, So this isn't it's not like
we're giving her a discount because we're receiving money for
the body of her baby. This is in addition too,
so we're making you know, millions of dollars from the
abortion and then millions of dollars for the sale of

(40:21):
her baby. You know, these go to biotech lab companies.
They use them for vaccines, they use them for all
different types of testing. I mean, we saw once Jesse
a few years ago, we saw a rat with a

(40:42):
with the scalp of a baby that had been grown
onto the back of a lab rat.

Speaker 9 (40:51):
You know why, I don't know.

Speaker 4 (40:54):
Just because they wanted to see if the hair of
an infant would grow on the back of a lab rat.
I mean, what is the scientific reasoning for that. There
is none. We're just at a point in our society
where scientists are they just want to see if they
can do it. And I want to say that those

(41:18):
scalps of those babies were live harvested. That meant those
babies were alive when they scalped them, when they took
the baby's scalps off their bodies and then transplanted them
onto the back of a rat It's some of the

(41:40):
most disgusting images I've ever seen. And planned parenthood and
Kamala Harris and Joe Biden, Anthony Fauci, they have all
been complicit in this sort of research.

Speaker 2 (41:55):
God forgive us.

Speaker 1 (41:58):
Abby the Dobs decision being overturned, real roav Wade being overturned.
I should say, obviously this is something celebrated in pro
life circles, but you know, you look at the numbers
and abortions haven't really gone down since then. Did we
get a win there, do we win a battle? Did

(42:19):
it do nothing? What do we think about that now
looking back on it.

Speaker 4 (42:24):
I mean, you know, Jesse, I think Row certainly needed
to be overturned. Do I think it was the victory
that everyone thought it was in the terms of, you know, oh,
we're going to end abortion.

Speaker 9 (42:40):
No, I don't think so.

Speaker 4 (42:43):
I think that we are seeing sort of this radicalization
of our culture. Abortion is a sacrifice. It's a sacrament
of the left. They love killing children, and I don't
really know any other way.

Speaker 9 (43:03):
To say it.

Speaker 4 (43:04):
They love killing innocent babies and they will do anything
they can to make sure that they can continue to
do that. And you know, when I worked at Planned Parenthood.
It was over twenty years ago. When I started working there.
They weren't so brazen about their support of abortion. It

(43:27):
was more, you know, behind the counter. We kept the
abortion pamphlets behind the counter. Now they're just right out
on social media. They're just right out in the front
saying abortion is our primary goal. This is what we love,
this is what we celebrate. We celebrate this sacrament almost

(43:48):
as a rite of passage for women. Women need to
have an abortion before they hit the age of twenty one.

Speaker 9 (43:55):
This is where we are.

Speaker 4 (43:56):
This is why they're in our school system teaching our
innocent children that sex before marriage is great. Sexual exploration
by the time you're nine, ten, eleven years old is good.

Speaker 9 (44:09):
You should do that.

Speaker 4 (44:10):
Explore homosexuality, Explore having sex with as many partners as
you can. This is what they're trying to teach our children,
sexual perversion. Because hyrissexual behavior leads to STDs, and it
leads to unplanned pregnancies, and all of those things lead
to people at the doorstep of planned parenthood, and that

(44:33):
leads to money.

Speaker 1 (44:36):
Yeh Abby, you're the best of bog So all right,
we have light in the mood.

Speaker 2 (44:44):
Thanks all right, it is time to lighten the mood.

Speaker 1 (44:56):
And nothing lightens my mood like Chuck Schumer in these
dirtball politicians getting blasted in public. I've always loved that
because these people are looting and gutting, they're destroying the
country as fast as humanly possible, and when they get
publicly humiliated, that's my heart.

Speaker 2 (45:13):
Well, your pa Cup, you know the Medican t act.

Speaker 11 (45:18):
Actually hate your cuts right.

Speaker 6 (45:19):
With your stumpback. You know that, right, You're run New York.

Speaker 2 (45:22):
You're lolder, loser, buddy, you're a lolder.

Speaker 1 (45:29):
I love that we still live in a country where
we can do that. All right, I'll see them
