Speaker 1 (00:00):
All right, thank you Scott Shannon, and thanks to all
of you for being with us. Write down our toll
free telephone number. We have a busy news day today.
It's eight hundred and ninety four one Sean if you
want to be a part of the program. Later on,
there were a bunch of Navy seals that were out
in the freezing cold early in the morning to get
into the hearings for Pete Hegsat today. I thought he

(00:21):
did phenomenal and everything I predicted yesterday came to fruition.
Democrats revert to form. They can't control themselves, and you know, petty,
nonsensical personal attacks, but they've got only a limited period
of time, and Pete was able to parry away pretty

(00:42):
much every attack that they made against him and refused
to fall into their traps. I'll go into specificity in
details here in a second. It's funny I did read
Kerry Pickets column in the Washington Times today. Many many
congressional Democrats do not plan to attend Donald Trump's inauguration
on Monday, but they're not calling it a boycott. Well, then,
what would you call it? Sounds like a boycott, It

(01:04):
looks like a boycott sounds like a boycott. Guess what,
it's a boycott anyway. At Trump's first inauguration, more than
sixty Democratic lawmakers boycott of the event because they said
Trump was an illegitimate, dangerous president. Eight years later, plenty
of House Democrats skipping Donald Trump swearing in at the
US Capitol. Many blame a scheduling conflict. They must be

(01:26):
having tea time somewhere anyway. I think it's kind of
just general conflict of logistics aos, he said to The
Washington Times about her plan no show. Emmanuel Cleaver Missouri
doesn't know if he can make the inauguration, saying the
day conflicts with MLK Day events at his church. He
told the Times that if he decides he can't make it,

(01:49):
it would not be part of a boycott. Some Democratic
lawmaker said they were participating. They're using the MLK holiday
that's also a National Championship Day. Squad member Presley of
Massachusetts said that she would spend the weekend of Martin
Luther King Junior in her district at community events. Who
cares if they come or not. It doesn't really matter

(02:11):
if they come or not. It was you know everything
that you you would expect. I thought, Pete himself stay
dialed in and focus will play some of his responses
as the show goes on. Now, I'm really not going
to spend a lot of time on Democrats because I
don't even think they're worthy of our time. But you know,

(02:33):
they're just not serious people, and these are serious times
and national security, national defense is critical in my mind,
and what the focus of today should have been about,
you know, And they didn't spend a lot of time about.
They spend a lot of time on social issues, women
in combat, Pete's personal life.

Speaker 2 (02:54):
You know, things that have nothing to do with the job.

Speaker 1 (02:58):
And I just sit there and I'm like, Okay, it's
the same old Democratic party. They didn't learn a thing
from this past election. And they're focused on you know, DEI.
They're focused on, you know, the type of politics that
you would expect from Democrats. And in the end, they

(03:20):
really didn't lay a hand on him. Identity politics just
rules the day for them. And I think what made
it impressive is when Pete did get an opportunity to speak,
he talked about the need to rebuild on military and
re establish de terrence and responsibly in these wars, which
Donald Trump ran his whole campaign on and he talked

(03:40):
about how the Department of Defense standards will achieve peace
through strength, and how these standards will not be equal,
will will be equal, not equitable, which is very different.
Now he's a change agent. His special interest is the
war fighter, and there was a coordinated effort to smear

(04:00):
him by the left wing media, which was all true,
and that came out during the course of the hearing stage.
If you didn't get a chance to watch it all,
which I'm sure most of you did not because you
were busy, and I'll give you a quick summary because
I have taken notes for the entire hearings. Roger Whitker
of Mississippi gave him a warm welcome as an experienced

(04:23):
nominee well positioned to help meet the challenges of today's
Department of Defense, and describing his background as a warrior
fighter himself as an asset, not a shortfall, and how
he will inject a new warrior ethos into the pentagon
of spirit that can cascade from the top down. Now,

(04:44):
when I look at our military today, this is me speaking,
I see a military that has what exactly what Reagan inherited,
and that is a gap of vulnerability. We have fallen behind.
It has not been the priority. At one point, I
don't remember who it was, they talked about five billion
dollars being spent in the first year alone and on

(05:07):
DEI programs within the military, which is insanity. It came
up a number of times the disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan
and how that could ever happen that, you know, a
lot of Democrats just openly said right from the get
go that Pete Hegseth is not qualified, and then they
went on to lecture him. Norm Coleman gave an impassioned

(05:28):
speech in favor of Pete, which I thought was very good.
The incoming National Security Advisor, Mike Waltz introduced and endorsed
Pete for Defense Secretary. Like Pete, I served in the
US Army. Like Pete, I'm a veteran. We deployed to
Afghanistan all over the world at the height of the
War on Terror, which is the war of our generation.

(05:48):
Like thousands of other war fighters, we witnessed the hardships
of war. We experienced the loss of friends in combat.
We've had to endure too much time away from family
and from friends, and then he opened his remarks, you know,
about going to work for President Trump and this committee,
you know, is to restore that warrior ethic to the

(06:09):
Pentagon and throughout our fighting force and re established trust
in our military and addressing the recruiting crisis, the retention crisis,
the readiness crisis. What they did to some members of
our military during COVID, people that were choosing to take
control of their own bodies, and you know, they wanted

(06:31):
to give him at the time dishonorable discharges. It was insane.
And how the Department of Defense under Trump will achieve
peace through strength and pursuing these America first national security
goals and remained patriotically a political and strive towards constitutionality.
And as it relates to the orchestrated smear on him,

(06:52):
well that was clear from day one, and he dealt
with all of it.

Speaker 2 (06:56):
He dealt with it head on. Talked about Yeah.

Speaker 1 (06:58):
He's he and through rough periods in his life and
he changed his life around. Gave credit to to his
conversion and commitment to Christianity in Jesus and his wife
for changing his life around during a tough period in
his life. We're going back a decade now, so we're
not talking about anything that was really current in any way.

(07:21):
And then, you know, then the questioning comes in, you know,
and here we go, rather than talking about the gap
of vulnerability, why does China rush off hypersonic technology with
maneuverability and we don't, you know, why is it that
we've got to rely on the many delivery systems for
nuclear weapons as our greatest deterrence. That should not be

(07:42):
our greatest deterrence, you know. But they didn't spend any
time talking about Donald Trump's proposal for an iron dome
that would protect the entire country, something I would love
to see President Trump accomplish, because I am very convinced
that future wars will not be fought on battlefields, although
you will always people on the ground and intelligence on
the ground, but for the most part, you're not gonna

(08:04):
have kids going door to door like they were in
Iraq and stepping on IEDs and not having up armored
hum v's. We can't be fighting wars like that ever
again in the future. If we're gonna liberate other countries, yeah,
Donald Trump's right, they should pay for their liberation. We
should not have to pay for it with a thirty
seven trillion dollar debt, and I think that that is

(08:25):
the future. But developing the next generation of warfare is
going to cost this country an enormous amount of money.
China has been spending, you know, drastic amounts of money
on building up their war machine. They have shown open
hostility even against American and ships in international waterways, and

(08:48):
against our air force and international airwaves. They've shown nothing
but hostility flying over our ally Taiwan. They've talked about
their territorial ambitions. Then of course we want to get it.
We would like to see an end to what's going
on with Ukraine and Vladimir Putin. That has to be
dealt with, the Iranian's desire for nuclear weapons, that has

(09:08):
to be dealt with. That's that's not what most of
these democrats wanted to talk about. And heg Seth was
very clear criticizing, you know, DEI policies of today and
how they're dividing troops inside formations, causing commanders to walk
on eggshells, not putting meritocracy at the top anyway, Senator

(09:33):
Reid fired back, all of your public comments don't talk
about meritocracy. They talk about liberal democratic efforts that are
destroying the military, that those people are enemies. I don't
recall them ever saying enemies, but you know, Senator Shaheen
questioned heg seth regarding women in the military, and he's
been clear and he clarified this long before these hearings,

(09:56):
and they wasted so much time on this. He said
he'd be honored to serve among all men, women, black, white,
all background. Says he's not talking about capabilities of men
versus women, but standards for men and women, and that
the standards must be high, and the standards have got
to be the same for men and women, and if

(10:18):
you meet those standards to serve in the military, then
you're in the military, period and a sentence and that
wasn't enough. Then Senator Jilibrand continues the questioning about women
in the military, and Hegsas says he'd never criticized women
in the military, but calling out, you know how he
has seen standards lowered for women and commanders and they

(10:41):
have quotas which have lowered and disparages women in the military.
And Jilibrand wouldn't back off. I have many concerns about
your record, particularly your public statements because they're hurtful to
the men and women who currently serve in the US
military and their morale. This guy has been He's devoted
as entire adult life life to serving the military. This

(11:02):
is what he cares about. And then attack Senator Cotton, Well,
he was giving you layups to differentiate between the different
types of combat. Specifically, as secretary, would you take any
action to reinstitute the combat arms exclusion for female service members?
Knowing full well you have hundreds of women doing that
job right now, and the standards that you run a

(11:24):
two minute, you run, your two mile run is about
the Army combat fitness test. And heg set said, I
respect every single female service member that has put on
the uniform, past and present. My critique, Senator, recently and
in the past, and from personal experience, have been instances
where I see standards lowered. And then he talked about

(11:47):
that Donald Trump wants to prevent war, that the best
way to prevent war is to have the greatest, meanest, toughest,
most advanced military on the face of this earth. Right
now now, I would make the argument we don't have
that they have dropped the ball, and we saw that
in Afghanistan, and you know, giving away our strategic petroleum

(12:11):
reserves and all these missiles and escalating the conflict in
Ukraine the way Joe Biden is. It's just been ridiculous.
But the chief job would be to deter war, prevent war.
And it was funny you watch Blumenthal, who lied about
his service in Vietnam, trying to attack Pete over the
money management while he was leading a veterans group. I

(12:33):
was kind of laughing at that somewhat Tim Kaine spent
almost all of his time. Now this is a bit
of an irony here that kind of made me chuckle
to myself anyway, because wasn't it the same Tim Kaine
that ran with Hillary Clinton? And he's Grilla and Pete
hegseth over allegations about his personal life and an allegation

(12:55):
that went away after a criminal investigation that never came
for a whey based on the evidence in the case
that didn't exist in that case. And I can only
guess they picked Caine to pursue that line of questioning
because of the familiarity he must have acquired about, you know,
people being accused of rape and cheating husbands when he
was Bill Clinton's vice presidential running mate in twenty sixteen,

(13:20):
but he didn't seem particularly offended that his running mate's
husband had been credibly accused of all of these things,
including exposing himself, rape, sexual assault, serial cheating, and all
the above. He seemed to be very good friends with
Bill Clinton. So I found that a little bit a
little bit of irony there. And so that came up,

(13:41):
and you know, then the issue of whether or not
you believe in waterboarding and the Geneva conventions came up
with Angus King. Let's see, one person, a Democrat from Michigan,
Gary Peters, was upset they didn't have a one on
one meeting. I'm like, really, that's what's That's all you
have to say. I thought that Senator Mullen of Oklahoma

(14:06):
was particularly powerful. He went right out as fellow senators
and he goes, yeah, how many of you have shown
up having drunk at night to vote? And how many
of you here in this chamber have have have been
involved in cheating scandals? He was like, he went right there.
I was like wow. Then he called out the hypocrisy
of senators and then he pointed out, yes, everyone has

(14:29):
send and fall in short, he didn't use those words.
They're my words. And we've all, well the Bible's words. Uh,
we've all made mistakes. And Petez, you know, changed his
life and he's done it for a number of years now.
But they want to go back and dredge up the
passes pasted as much as they can. This is why
good people don't want to run for public office. They
don't want to be a part of serving in the government.

(14:51):
It's a high price that you pay, I'll tell you. Uh, listen,
you might think that, Okay, I'll use my gun in
self defense that obviously, if you have to protect. I
can't announce everything yet, but we have a lot planned
for next week.

Speaker 2 (15:05):
Excited about all of it. Let's put it this way.

Speaker 1 (15:08):
I'm going to be spending more time in the DC
swamp than I had originally planned. But we have a
lot of really good stuff that we're going to do
that I think hopefully we'll get things started off on
the right foot and be productive in a lot of
different ways. I'm kind of getting excited about Linda, you
get excited about Monday. It can't come soon enough as

(15:30):
far as I'm concerned. Of course, could you just just
Just imagine what it would be like if Kamala won
for a second.

Speaker 2 (15:39):
Just imagine that. What do you think?

Speaker 3 (15:43):
Yeah, I try not to have bad dreams while wide awake,
and I'll do that. That's not a thing.

Speaker 1 (15:49):
It would be pretty bad. They announced that, Oh I
know that Rascal Plats is going to be playing there.
That's pretty cool be playing. Oh guess who else is
playing there? Who the village people are playing there?

Speaker 3 (16:03):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (16:03):
I did see that.

Speaker 3 (16:03):
I did see that, y MC.

Speaker 2 (16:08):
Did you see at the park? Are you going to
do it?

Speaker 3 (16:09):
Sean? You're going to get up there and dance with them?

Speaker 2 (16:12):
No? I'm not, No, I will not be. I'm working.

Speaker 3 (16:15):
That might be the one thing that you could do.
You don't have to move the bottom board of your body.
You just have to move your arms.

Speaker 1 (16:20):
All you gotta do is you put the big y
up right and then you do the M and then
you kind of slant over A and then the A
at the top when you put your hands together.

Speaker 2 (16:32):
Is that it?

Speaker 3 (16:32):
And the third letter is C. But we'll give you
a pass. Not everybody gets it right the first time.

Speaker 1 (16:38):
It's fine, Okay, I sound like Joe Biden or who
was it that said the three letter word, jobs, j obs,
jobs anyway, So the village people, Rascal Flats carry Underwood
is going to be performing, and you know, and by
the way, to her, she doesn't care at all about

(16:58):
any backlash good for her that she may face, according
to sources who say that the singer is very proud
to have the chance to have that experience during her career.
She's got such an amazing voice, by the way, she's incredible.
And I really don't care what performers political points of
view are. I mean, if I chose my music, and

(17:19):
if I chose what I watched, which I don't watch
a lot of stuff. I've been obsessed with the chosen
now forever. But if I chose it based on their politics,
I wouldn't watch any of it.

Speaker 2 (17:32):
Anyway. They're gonna do Macho man ymca. I just I don't.

Speaker 1 (17:37):
I have so much that I have to do work wise,
and we're doing a show Sunday night that I really
won't have time to do anything else but get my
work done. And you are aware of my schedule, so
you know how tight things are going to be. It's
gonna be pretty pretty tight, indeed, And it's just you know,
it's it's going to be such shock and awe. If

(18:01):
you want to know what the schedule is on, when
is it. On Saturday, there's a reception of fireworks will
be held at Trump National Golf Club in Sterling, Virginia.
Is a reception for Cabinet nominees and a dinner hosted
by Vice President elect JD.

Speaker 2 (18:20):
Vans.

Speaker 1 (18:21):
On the nineteenth, Trump is going to lay a route
that the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier at Arlington National Cemetery,
where members of the military are buried. A victory rally
at Capital One Arena, which is the home of the
Washington Wizard and the Washington Capitals. That's the Candlelight dinner.
I had a couple of close friends of mine that

(18:42):
are going to that and tried to talk me into going.
I'm like, well, I'm doing a show on Sunday night.
I have no choice, but I'll have to work. I'll
be working on Inauguration Day. The day begins with services
at Saint John's Church. After the church service, Trump will
have tea at the White House with Joe and Jill Biden.
At noon, Trump will take the oath of office at

(19:02):
the US Capital. I do solemnly swear affirm that I
will faithfully execute the office of President of the United States,
and will, to the best of my ability, preserve, protect,
defend the Constitution of the United States. After saying then
goodbye to Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, the President
will hold a signing ceremony near the Senate Chamber, where

(19:25):
he will likely sign nominations so that his cabinets elections
can be confirmed expeditiously. A lunch will be hosted by
the Joint Congressional Committee on Inaugural Ceremonies, which organizes the
inauguration events, including the swearing in ceremony. Prior to the
parade from the Capital to the White House, the President

(19:47):
will review the troops. The parade will be down Pennsylvania Avenue.
I'm sure security is going to be I pray security
is going to be insane. It should be, it must be.
It has to be. At the White House, Trump all
whole day signing ceremony, where he will sign what is
expected to be shock and awe a flurry of executive orders.

(20:08):
He will attend and address three inaugural balls, the Commander
in Chiefs Ball, the Liberty Inaugural Ball, and the Starlight Ball.
I will be at one of the three. Wherever he
will be in the nine pm hour is the one
I will be at. And it looks like it was
up until yesterday, the Liberty Ball. It looks like the

(20:30):
Starlight Ball now. So we'll have to wait and see
how that plays out. I have to put on a
tuxedo again. Can you believe it? You know how I
love my tuxedo.

Speaker 3 (20:41):
I mean, you know, listen, I would wear just about anything.
I'd wear a tuxedo to go to the ball and
see President Trump.

Speaker 2 (20:48):
Oh, would you like to do? You do? You never
mention that you want? Would you like to go to
the ball?

Speaker 3 (20:53):
No? I'm washing my hair that night. I can't make it.

Speaker 1 (20:57):
My hair that night, you can't make it. I get
you a picture. I thought this was going to buy
me goodwill with Donald Trump when we were in Harrisburg,
and and that lasted about two weeks, as I predicted, left.
It lasted longer than I thought. Actually, Alabama and Texas
and Mike Johnson have all ordered the capital their state

(21:20):
flags and capital flags.

Speaker 2 (21:22):
Uh uh.

Speaker 1 (21:25):
They were refusing to keep it at half staff during
Trump's inauguration. This is something Joe Biden had decided, and
I hope when Trump gets in there he just puts
the flag up. I think you should. But the petty look,
the pettiness was on display. It's gonna be on display
for Cash, It's gonna be on this display for Tulsi.
It's gonna be on display for Pam, who's on I
think she's up tomorrow. It's gonna be on display for Marco.

(21:47):
It's going to be on display for RFK Junior. It's
it's pretty much gonna be everybody. And this is just Democrats, bitter, angry, petty.
We saw all the petty news of Joe Biden on
the way out the door. None of us should be
a surprise to anybody, and you know we saw it

(22:07):
on display today. I mean, I mean the fact that
they designate Tim Kaine, Hillary Clinton's running mate, to go
after Pete on issues from his past is a little ironic.
Did that not make you laugh? It kind of made
me laugh, and like, this is your best shot? And

(22:29):
then the best shot that they took at Pete. You know,
they obsessed for like an hour and a half over
women and their role in combat. Am I old fashioned
in thinking that? In my way?

Speaker 2 (22:43):
Of thinking I'm not against women in combat. I'm not
at all.

Speaker 1 (22:47):
I just think the standards, as Pete was pointing out,
need to be exactly the same, and that which would
go for police departments, some fire departments. As long as
as long as you're capable of doing the job, nothing
should prevent you from being a job. Your section prevent
you from being you know, from doing the job. But
at the end of the day, if you're a firefighter

(23:07):
and you can't carry somebody out of a burning building,
when if for whatever reason, man or woman, then that's
not the job for you. It's just simply not. And
maybe I'm very old fashioned, but if somebody breaks into
my house and there's anybody in my house, which usually
there's not, if somebody breaks into my house, I think

(23:29):
it's my job to get up and to deal with
whatever situation is unfolding.

Speaker 2 (23:37):
At my house. Do you do you think that?

Speaker 1 (23:39):
Do you feel the same way, Lindaree?

Speaker 3 (23:42):
With you?

Speaker 1 (23:43):
How many times did I use the analogy about you
and being out with somebody and if somebody starts choking
and you're with a guy, I think that guy's choking.
Don't you think that was a good example because I
know you would knock over the table, you would dive
into the next table, you would race over yet behind

(24:06):
the guy put your fingers down his throat to the
Heimlich maneuver all at once.

Speaker 3 (24:11):
Is that action not the best analogy. I think the
better analogy is to look at like this LA firefighter
who was like, you know, if I have to carry
your husband out of a fire, then your husband got
in the wrong spot. And I think to your point,
into Pete Hegsett's point is that you know, again, it's
on an equal basis, not equity.

Speaker 1 (24:32):
Charlemaine the God says that the prosecution of Trump is
pure political theater. And you know what what happens if
a forest falls in the tree. If a tree falls
in the forest and nobody hears it, that's sort of
like Jack Smith who resigned and is releasing a vindictive
report to justify what was nothing but a political witch hunt.

(24:57):
And of course, you know, dump it in just days
before Donald Trump takes the oath of office, and with
no opportunity for Donald Trump and his team to even
rebutt it. It's nothing but a cheap shot, and nobody
really cares. Nobody cares, not even the people at MSDNC
or fake New CNN care about any of this nonsense.

Speaker 2 (25:19):
I'll tell you what people do care about.

Speaker 1 (25:22):
You know, the more we learn about these LA wildfires,
the angrier that everybody I think should get. I think
everybody should be very angry, because this is what radical
environmentalism is all about. It's also rooted and deeply tied
into the socialist, Marxist statist agenda. Hence the Green New

(25:44):
Deal guarantees government healthy food, daycare, I guaranteed government job,
blah blah blah, everything's guaranteed. Creator to grave wound to
the two. Now, at the end of the day, I'm
telling you where the money is going to come from, you,
the taxpayers. And Speaker Mike Johnson said he believes that

(26:05):
aid sent to California with all the devastation could probably
have conditions. I think he's right. In other words, unless
they practice the science of forestry, unless they fill their reservoirs,
unless they have hydrants and a plan to take care

(26:26):
of any area that might be subject to a wildfire,
unless they have the general practice of clearing out brush,
unless they implement controlled burns, then why are we bothering
to pour good money after bad. I mean, for example,
years ago, they didn't have Category five storm impact windows

(26:46):
in Florida.

Speaker 2 (26:47):
Now it's now.

Speaker 1 (26:48):
It's as far as I'm concerned, it's mandatory, and I
think for most people it's pretty much mandatory. And if
you're anywhere near the coast, it absolutely is mandatory. Harris
is refusing to invite the JD vance as is traditional,
over to where he will be living when he becomes

(27:10):
vice president. But does anybody really care? I don't think so.
The more that we're learning about this fire, the more
we're learning how California eco bureaucrats halted a Pacific Palisades
fire safety project to save an endangered shrub. This was
in the New York Post today, But in twenty nineteen,

(27:30):
the LA Department of Water and Power again replacing nearly
one hundred year old power line poles cutting through some
state park. When the project was halted within days by
conservationist outrage. That federally endangered I don't even know what
this is. That federally endangered Braunton's milkviitch plants had been

(27:54):
trampled during the process. You know what that plant is.
I've never heard of that plant. The goal of The
project was to improve fire safety for the Pacific Palisades
area by replacing the wood poles with steel, widening the
fire access lanes in the area, installing wind and fire

(28:15):
resistant power lines, all after the area was identified as
having an elevated fire risk. The project would have ensured
power reliability and safety while helping reduce wildfire threats. The
wooden poles were installed between nineteen thirty three and nineteen
fifty five, well passed their useful service life. But this

(28:38):
is how insane the environmental movement is. And then if
you look at the New York Post today, they have
a long expos about how Governor Newsom has plans to
spend one hundred billion dollars on electric vehicles. We told
you about LA They have those green one of those
green street sweepers. They're eight hundred grand apiece. They got

(28:59):
one hundred billion million dollars on electric vehicles. Meanwhile they're
cutting back and by the way, I'm proposed cutting two
point six billion in fire prevention budget. By their two
point six billion fire prevention budget by one hundred and
one million. I mean, what part of this you're not getting?

Speaker 2 (29:16):
You know?

Speaker 1 (29:17):

customer service, and they're based here in the US, and

(31:54):
you pay half the price for the exact same thing.

There's simply no need to spend eight one hundred bucks
a month per person on your wireless bill, not when
you can get unlimited talk text, fifteen gigs a data
