Speaker 1 (00:04):
Every patriot has an obligation to question authority. Those who
are honest are not concerned with your watchful vigilance, and
those with integrity are not concerned with your discernment. Every
American is obligated to voice their concerns and stand up
for their freedoms and liberties. One nation, honor God Invisible,
(00:27):
with liberty and justice for all. Ladies and gentlemen. We
are the men in the arena. We are the Patriot Confederation.
Speaker 2 (00:38):
We live back down from buying. We're a free Americans.
Speaker 3 (01:00):
All right, Ladies and gentlemen, Welcome to Patriot Confederation for
what is the sixteenth of September twenty twenty five. I'm
your host, Bad Billy out of Twin Falls, Idaho, joined
by John Grovenor out of Nashaua and New Hampshire, New
England area. How's it going up there in the northeast. Oh,
it's going good, Billy.
Speaker 4 (01:19):
As far as I know, it's going good.
Speaker 3 (01:20):
I hope it keeps going good.
Speaker 4 (01:23):
Not as you know, noever as bad as what went
on in Utah.
Speaker 3 (01:26):
But we'll get to that later. Well, you know that
was only four hours away from where I live too,
you know. Yeah, I'm very close for you. Yeah, and
it's been a pretty rough week politically for us on
the right. That's for sure. Not so good for some
leftists though, who think that they can dance on the dirt,
(01:46):
you know. I mean, I've got some mixed feelings about
some of that. But at the same time, you know,
I mean they're playing that FAFO game and learning the
learning the hard lesson, and I think some a lot
of them need to.
Speaker 4 (02:01):
Don't you like how they do it and try to
deny it later on, and everybody's got the receipts on it,
like no, no, nope, he didn't hear it is right here.
Speaker 3 (02:08):
We got the videos, you know. The best one I
saw though, I'll share this real quick, is uh. There
there is a gentleman who, probably about two weeks ago,
was stating his strong disagreements and he wasn't really vulgar
or anything, but his strong disagreements with Charlie Kirk and
(02:28):
did call him a hypocriten And I think as of
the last couple of days right after the horrible events,
he did the research on what was said and he
and he posted an apology video and you know, wish
he wished Charlie's family, his condolences and everything. I'm thinking
(02:49):
right there, I mean, that's that's Charlie working from beyond
the grave right there. His I mean, they they did
not silence him. So actually he's international now exactly. Well,
you see in New Zealand they have some owen's doing
the Hackey dance in his honor, and they don't do
(03:13):
that for just anybody. You have to be somebody very
well respected for them to do that. So anyway, joining
us this week, I want to welcome Senator Glenita Zeiderfeld
to the show. Of course I've mentioned her name several times.
She was on last year joining us with the Senator
(03:34):
Christy Zido, and I want to welcome her back to
the show. Thank you very much for joining us.
Speaker 5 (03:40):
Oh, thank you, Billy, and thank you John As. I'm
glad to be here and be part of your show.
Speaker 3 (03:46):
Yes, yes, indeed, yes indeed. Of course. So when you
joined us last week, we weren't on with the networks,
so it's it's a little the format so kind of
changed a little bit and I like it though, So
let's get this conversation started off though, since we're already
talking about Charlie kirk it, you know, the whole thing.
(04:10):
It's just an unavoidable subject. You, on the other hand,
have personally met him, You had your picture taken with him,
and overall, you know what was what was he like?
Speaker 5 (04:23):
You know what he is, exactly who you see on
the videos. He was actually taller than I thought, and
I was at an event and then we had a
dinner afterwards, and in the picture you see, it's with
me and my friend Sue, and we were laughing because
he is six or five, but I didn't realize that
(04:43):
he was that tall, and I was just saying, what
a poor judge of character and pictures I am. I
think people are shorter than they are or taller than
they are. And we just had a really good laugh
about that. He is just like your your son, your brother.
He is just down to earth and what you see
(05:06):
on those videos is exactly who he was when I
met him, and very compassionate, graceful, merciful. But he's well equipped.
You know, the Lord has given him wisdom beyond I mean,
it's almost like the Song of or you know, Solomon,
not the Song of Solomon, but Solomon. You know, he
(05:26):
had that wisdom he's able to retain the information that
he is just probably from reading at one time, and
and so he's really been equipped in a way that
has blessed the world.
Speaker 3 (05:40):
And so young too, you know. I mean, of course
I'm no stranger, unfortunately to witnessing young people leave us,
like my father unfortunately passed away when he was only
thirty three. So yeah, Charley's uh, just way too young
(06:02):
to be taken from us. But you know what, the
Lord saw it fit. And the Lord has a plan
for everybody and everything of all around. And you know,
I mean, I it's no see it's it's it's no
surprise to anyone. I think that the Good Lord has
welcomed him into the Great Kingdom of Heaven. Oh you know.
Speaker 5 (06:25):
And I was thinking about it when he passed, and
I was googling to see how old he was. He
was thirty one. He actually turns thirty two in October sometime,
so his birthday's coming out, and I was and then
I wanted to see how old he was when nine
to eleven happened, because I was thinking that this is
(06:47):
kind of like nine to eleven was for our generation.
How it just shook us. We were all just you know,
praying and grasping, ready to fight. It just brought a
lot of us together. And this generation Charlie Kirk's assassination
is basically they're nine to eleven. They're going through all
(07:09):
those emotions that we went through. And when I looked
at to see how old he was, he was only
seven when nine to eleven happened. He really didn't have
He probably had some memories, but he didn't really have
that same emotional all our world's falling apart, you know,
are we going to be attacked? And you just look
(07:29):
at what he's done in his life and at such
a young age, and it just really is amazing. But
I think this next generation that they're dealing with this,
it is gonna wake them up. It's personal to them.
Speaker 3 (07:46):
You know, I was a senior in high school when
he was born, too, and I'm thinking, you know, I'm
just barely starting in our adulthood by the time he
was born, and you know, and now he's already gone.
And that's that's the part there. I can't I still
can't wrap my mind around it. It's a lot of
it's still very surreal to me, but you know that
(08:11):
this is this is what it is right now. You know,
the Lord just did decide that it was his time.
Speaker 5 (08:18):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (08:19):
I don't care ever care to see that video again,
but I mean, of course, well imagine waking up from
a nap or even a good sleep and waking up
to that.
Speaker 5 (08:32):
Yeah, well, I just think of his wife and his
family and friends that were there. You know that that's
something that will always be with them. And I think
it went about when my sons were over in Afghanistan
and Iraq. They have dealt with certain things, watching their
their buddies being blown up and stuff, and that's just
an image that never goes away their entire life. My
(08:55):
uncle was actually one of them that stormed the beaches
of Normandy, and he has all these images he since
passed that when you witness such a ordeal like that,
so tragic, that that is forever going to be with them.
And I just really want to make sure that we
continue to lift up prayers for their family because once,
(09:18):
you know, pretty soon we'll get kind of back to normal,
but their lives will never be the same. I mean
a lot of our lives won't be the same because
there was such an impact there. But he was there
every morning, waking up, you know, and going to bed,
and he was just part of that. And now, you know,
as part of them is basically has been amputated, and
(09:40):
they're going to have to learn how to keep going
with half of them missing.
Speaker 3 (09:45):
Well, when we look at Erica, and of course I
posted that one picture of her with that with just
that stare where you can see both sadness finger and
I'm the one who put together that meme, but I said, remember,
the lioness always does the hunting, and I see the
(10:05):
I see the lion is right there, right there in
her eyes, you know, and and and she's doing it,
you know.
Speaker 2 (10:12):
And like.
Speaker 3 (10:14):
You know, like I mentioned a little bit ago before
we started the show, you know that somebody had some
harsh words for Darley, uh two weeks ago, and he
since then, he over he looked over everything that he criticized,
found out that a lot of it was taken out
of context, and he posted an apology. And I'm just saying,
(10:37):
that's Charlie working from behind the beyond the grave right.
Speaker 5 (10:39):
There, right and you know that's where we need to be.
People have really lost the value of human life. I mean,
we're seeing that everywhere we're seeing, you know, the murderer
of the young Ukraine Gal. We're just seeing that no
one has has any respect for life. They have no
(11:01):
they don't even have their own self worth, So why
would they think somebody else had self worth? And we're
witnessing such evil and in ways that you know, our
brains can't even really process that. And then when you
have people go out and you know, talk about how
they they're laughing at his death, and I just can't
(11:26):
even imagine that, because I'm thinking, it wouldn't even Matt.
If somebody I didn't like pass away, I would I
would genuinely feel bad for them and feel bad for
their family. I would have respect for their human life
to say, you know what, we didn't agree, and you
know I didn't like what you did, but you don't
go and make such horrific statements. It makes me think
(11:50):
of what was her name with the red hair that
held up Trump's head?
Speaker 3 (11:54):
Oh, Kathy Gifford.
Speaker 5 (11:57):
Yeah, I'm thinking that's kind of what we're experiencing here.
I'm thinking there and I'm thinking, do you not realize
that there is young children involved, there is loved ones involved,
and you know, why would you.
Speaker 4 (12:11):
Even do that because these are mean, mean, hateful, spiteful people.
They didn't care about the kids, they didn't care about
his family, They obviously didn't care about him, and they
didn't care about you and me. In fact, there's under
investigation now with the FBI, believe is the Armed Quaer's
Revolutionary Marxist group, which deleted its Instagram account as Facebook
(12:33):
probes whether extended network had prior knowledge of Charlie Kirk's assassination.
If you heard the announcement when they found Robinson, Tyler Robinson,
he said that he tweeted somebody or not didn't tweet it,
he in discord or something, or he sent a message
to somebody he had to go retrieve a gun wrapped
in a towel or blanket or something like that. So
(12:55):
as soon as I heard that, I thought, this sounds
like there's co conspirators here, and now they're being these people.
I'm not saying they're co conspirators. I'm not saying they
were involved, because it says they are probing them after
they deleted their Instagram account. So there's a lot of
there's a lot of hate and discontent with these people.
You got to be mentally ill to do something like this.
(13:16):
This is not something saying people do. Regarding to what
Billy said earlier about the Lioness, it's to my understanding,
there are people that want to have state chapters for
a turning point USA.
Speaker 3 (13:29):
Oh yeah, oh yeah, it's going big. Yeah, it's gonna
go huge.
Speaker 4 (13:36):
We got people internationally right now. Billy pointed out the
Hokah dance or the hookah ceremony.
Speaker 3 (13:42):
That is beautiful. These people do that.
Speaker 4 (13:43):
There's a lot of energy and power what they're doing,
and for them to celebrate Charlie Kirk like that. This
is no longer about Charlie Kirk, beautiful guy, beautiful person.
But this is about freedoms. This is about liberty. We've
seen suppression of speech in England and these people are
tired of it. We seen Islam going in England and
take it over their country. They're tired of it. And
now they're standing out regardless of lack of free speech
(14:07):
or not, and they're holding Charlie Kirk signed up there.
They're holding Charlie, they're elevating him because now this is international.
Freedom is becoming international. People want it, people love it,
people eat it up, and they're fighting for it. We
hear the United States of America need to wake up
and start fighting too.
Speaker 3 (14:22):
Absolutely, absolutely, you know what, We have hit the first quarter,
so we better hit the first break. And when we
come back, we may continue this discussion a little bit more,
even though we do have other subjects we need to
get to. So with that said, we'll be back in
about a minute and a half. All right, ladies and gentlemen,
(14:44):
we are back, joined by Senator Glenita Zeyderveld. Of course,
right out of my neck of the woods, southern Idaho here,
not quite in my district, but right next door.
Speaker 5 (14:56):
So you're in district.
Speaker 3 (15:00):
Oh nope, nope, I was when you were not on
my ballot. I do apologize last November I could not
vote for you because you were not on my Well,
I can.
Speaker 5 (15:12):
Still represent you. I can still represent you.
Speaker 3 (15:16):
Josh was on my ballot. He got my vote.
Speaker 2 (15:19):
Good.
Speaker 5 (15:19):
Good, He's a good one. He needs to be on
your show.
Speaker 3 (15:24):
Yeah, so if I can only get him, he it's
it's just I think it's been really tough for him
because I've invited him like at least four or five times.
In fact, I asked him in person. He said he'd
do it, but I just don't know if he can
ever find the time.
Speaker 5 (15:42):
Well, he does have a nine to five job, and
he is a newlywed and trying to figure everything out.
So we'll give him a little bit of grace, but
I'll bother him and tell him he needs to go on.
Speaker 3 (15:54):
You know, him and I now share the same anniversary too.
Oh yeah, yeah, him and his bride got married on
the same day as uh when my wife got married,
and then same for Shane Class and his bride too.
Speaker 5 (16:09):
Yeah, oh yeah they were Yeah. I was that Shane's
wedding didn't make Josh as he went up north.
Speaker 3 (16:14):
But ah, gotcha. Yeah, you know, it's kind of funny too.
I remember my wife saying, you know, single people really
don't do too well when they're running in politics. I
got they they have to have like a family presence.
He's not married, that that might not work in his favor.
Speaker 5 (16:34):
You and David love it one big and both were single.
Speaker 3 (16:38):
Yeah you know, I run into David time to time,
like the grocery store and what not too, so oh
my goodness. Anyway, so uh yeah, let's definitely move on
to the next subject. I will say though, real quick.
Rest in peace, Charlie Kirk, you will be missed, uh gone,
(17:00):
but not forgotten. What a legend for surely. Yeah. So,
uh this brings us to our next subject, though before
we have to go to the bottom of the hour
break a little a little around a month ago. It's
I I mentioned this before that I joined a uh
(17:21):
an x stream or whatever you call those live streams
on on x or Twitter or whatever, hosted by uh
Rhino Removal Project. And of course, uh I really like
that organization. I'm good friends with the founder, Jim Balboa
out of New York. And when I told, I told
(17:43):
them some time ago, Idaho needs needs a representative and
ambassador for Rhino Removal Project. The problem is we do
have an ambassador with them, we just don't have a
good one. And I'll call her out by name, Lauren
is I and I talked to Jim's. I don't know
(18:06):
what has happened since then, but I told I told
Jim's like, you know, she's she's a terrible ambassador, and
she's gonna she's gonna put a stain on the organization.
Like you're not gonna believe she's She's already she's already
buddied up with a rhino and she's supposed to be
with rhino removal project. And of course she talks down
(18:28):
to me because I'm I'm more of a libertarian, and
she expressed her hatred openly for libertarians. And what she
doesn't realize is Jim Balboa is more of a libertarian
and she's working right alongside with him, so, you know,
(18:49):
and and the horrible things I've caught her doing, you know.
And then she tried, you know, on that stream, a
lot of people are being praised, but I never heard
your name mentioned, never heard Josh's name mentioned. So that's
when I raised my hand and I said, you know
what I'm I'm in the Magic Valley. I've got you
call calling out the Gang of Eight. I've got four
(19:12):
of them right here in my area, and I want
to you know, I was singing my praises for the
four of you. Then she's like, oh, I've got a
caveat on that. You know, they were all backed up
by yall young Americans for liberty, and they're all and
and and and they're tied in with the drug cartel.
And I'm like, that doesn't that doesn't make sense. That's
(19:34):
because YAO does support the push for marijuana, legalizing marijuana,
but that's that's for uh, you know whatever, even though
they supported you and I know, I know you and
I have had that conversation before, you know, and and uh,
and they don't really it.
Speaker 5 (19:54):
I just wanted to clarify because there's Young Americans for
Liberty and then we're part of the hazlet part of
Young Americans for Liberty, which is the political part. They
have never once pushed that on Is it on their questionnaire?
It is, But there's a lot of questions like that
on a lot of people's questionnaires just because they want
to know where you stand on different topics. But as
(20:17):
far as pushing marijuana, not in not in one of
the fifty states have they pushed that. That's not their focus.
They do believe that there shouldn't be like these victimless
crimes that are overcrowding our prisons. You know, we have
to look into that, but they have never pushed that.
And I really want to make it clear to people
(20:38):
with Young Americans for Liberty. Heather Scott and Ron Nate
were two of the first ones to actually join that group.
If they were at any time about that they would
have never joined. And then when we began to run,
and then when we ran one, then they said you
need to join has LET, which is Young Americans for Liberty.
(21:02):
It was never They've never pushed marijuana whatsoever. They they're
all about helping us fight for our sovereignty. They're about
you know, school choice, They're about making sure that we're
not so dependent on the federal government and just bringing back,
you know, our sovereignty. That is what they're all about,
(21:22):
and that's what they've always been about. But what happened
is Mike Moyle, our Speaker of the House, had a
really strong challenger, and he was worried about that, so
he actually got our The people that were part of
the Idaho Freedom Caucus were also part of HAZLET. We
(21:44):
were the same same members on both and so when
they started coming after him with negative ads, which everybody does,
everybody has negative ads. I had over one hundred thousand
dollars of negative ads from our own Republican governor. That's
just part of running for office, you know, grow a
(22:05):
thicker skin, get over it. Well, then, because he was
getting all of this, the HAZLET members at that time,
which I was you know, I'm still am part of
They wanted them to cease and desist from giving negative
ads on Mike Moyle. It was never about marijuana, never,
(22:26):
and so if that was the case, then why didn't
they bring that up? And then why didn't they call
them out when we were all members, because we actually
went you know, the Freedom Caucus. We went up to
d C and talked with the DC suits, you know,
which never tells us what to do. They're here again
just trying to help us fight for our state sovereignty
(22:46):
because they realized that the federal were not making a
whole lot of ground, so let's work on our state sovereignty.
So we all flew together to Washington, d C. And
then we all flew together over to Florida to do
a y'all convention. But there was no problem whatsoever about
any of that. It was only until our speaker came
(23:07):
into the picture and they he was needing their endorsement
to win against his challenger.
Speaker 3 (23:14):
Yeah, you know, that's well, Lauren tried to back me
into a corner, you know, and pushing all this, all
these I don't know, some kind of articles about Mike
Moyle and tell it, you know, basically trying to tell
me that I was on the wrong side and I
need to be on the right side of this fight.
(23:36):
And then she's trying to take credit for you and
Josh and Clint and David getting elected. She's trying to
take credit for that. I'm like, for number one, you
live up in Coutney County, idahose a big state and
Coutney County is a long way. You had nothing to
do with it. Lauren had nothing to do with it.
(23:57):
Brandy Parody had nothing to do with it. In fact,
I'm pretty sure with the proper elected officials up in
Cootney County she really had nothing to do with their
election either. I mean, I'm sorry, Lauren is a nobody
trying to be a somebody and trying to take it
like in the military, it'd be stolen valor what she's doing.
Speaker 5 (24:18):
And you know, and to me is kind of sad
because they're using her to do the dirty work for them,
and that to me is sad. And once her usefulness
is gone, what are they going to do with her?
You know? And to me again, I would never want
to be part of that. I would never want to
(24:38):
use somebody in that way, say Hey, can you air
this dirty laundry so our name's not attached to it,
you know, be like Charlie Kirk. Just say the truth,
put it out there and let it be. But they
don't want to be the one looking like there. You know,
they can say, oh, I didn't say that. I didn't
say that. I think at one time she made a
(25:00):
tweet about Chrissy Ziddo and I that we were menopausal women.
I can't remember. I don't really retain that stuff, and
it doesn't really matter. But she was coming after us,
trying to degrade us, and that was just a way
of trying to manipulate and try to intimidate us to
kind of back down. And again it was she was
(25:23):
doing the dirty work for them. She was airing out
the dirty laundry and trying to cause a problem. And
so that's kind of where that's at.
Speaker 3 (25:31):
Yeahs, I'm so glad I never crossed paths with her too,
because her and I were both at the Heterosexual Awesomeness
Fest in June, and i'd later do I realize she
was there too. In fact, she was at the Airbnb
with the other people that I know, and yeah, and
(25:56):
I talked she.
Speaker 5 (25:56):
Likes that access politics. She likes knowing that she's part
of something, which, you know, I get a lot of
people like that. They like to know that they know
their senator or their speaker. You know, I get that.
I understand why she likes that. But to the point
where they're not coming after rhinos, They're coming after the
(26:18):
top you know, let's just take the top fifteen. Well,
the eight of us are in that top fifteen. We're
up there, and instead of looking at the rhinos and
going after the rhinos, now all of a sudden, they're
having to remove us. And you know why is that?
You know, why are they coming after you know, we're
part of them. We had the most conservative session in history,
(26:42):
they said, which I think we could have been more conservative,
but I'll take it. We had the most conservative session.
And the only reason why we had that is we
did work together. You know, where there's some personality issues,
whereas there are some issues where they're removing you know,
names from bills, wouldn't allow our name to be on
a bill, and a lot of negative stuff on social media. Absolutely,
(27:06):
but when it came down to doing the work of
the people on voting, we were united on that. And
so now they don't want to focus on that when
they want to say, oh, we're so divided. I hate that.
That is so like last session, let's move forward. We
worked together, we voted in line because we're doing what
is best for Idaho. But they, you know, the thing is,
(27:28):
they don't get clicks and likes. It's like the all
the radio TV shows. You know, the more drama you
can get, the vetter and more clicks. People love the drama.
Speaker 3 (27:40):
If it bleeds, it leads, you know what. We're at
the bottom of the hour though, and we got to
take in the hour break and John, I sent something
to you and Facebook Messenger, which is click on that link.
Take a look at it while we're on break, and
it's the Idaho Freedom's scorecards. Take a look and see
(28:00):
who is number one. And we'll be back in about
three minutes. And ladies and gentlemen, we are back once again,
joined by Senator Glenita Zayderveld District twenty four, right here
in southern Idaho. John, I see that you've opened the link,
(28:22):
and do you see who is who's got the top
spot with the Idaho Freedom Foundation.
Speaker 4 (28:28):
Oh, let me see number one and two spots were
two individuals that have been on this show and one
presently with us. She's got the number one position, Billy.
Speaker 3 (28:39):
Yes, indeed, no surprise is it. We only bring the
best on the show.
Speaker 4 (28:44):
You gotta qualify, you understand.
Speaker 3 (28:47):
Yes, I'm trying to raise the bar.
Speaker 4 (28:50):
There you go, Well, you pretty much can't raise it
much higher than where it's at. You pretty much nailed
it right there. You know, that's high rankings for freedom.
Speaker 3 (29:00):
But people in Boise, of course, are not very happy
with the first eight that you see there. And Glenita,
please to let me know if I get any of
the facts wrong. But it's to my understanding that Mike
Moyle wanted to get everybody in office a raise up
(29:24):
to you and the other seven said, no, we've we've
spent the taxpayers dollars enough. And that's that's where a
lot of this rift is happening.
Speaker 5 (29:38):
It is so Actually the rays started at fort and
it was the Senate leadership which was at that time
Senator Chuck Winder and the House leadership Mike Moyle along
with the minority really leadership that brought in the suggestion
(30:00):
and to the citizens committee that decides our rais and
so a bunch of us spoke out right away when
we heard it was forty four percent, And after coming
off of a really difficult campaign, knocking on doors seeing
everybody just struggling. People are moving back in with their parents,
parents are moving in with kids in this inflation, they
(30:22):
can't afford it. And so all of a sudden, now
we're getting a forty four percent increase in our pay
and we just thought that is no way that we
can accept that. That it doesn't They said, well, it's
not that much because right now we make about nineteen
thousand a year for a three month session, and then
we do get per diem and everything else, so we
(30:44):
get more than that nineteen thousand when you look at
all the other perks that we get, and so that, yeah,
I'm thinking, yeah, it wasn't a whole lot that it
was the principle of the matter. When was the last
time you got a forty four percent raise? Yeah, you know,
nobody that doesn't work for the government receives that. So
then they lowered it down to twenty two percent, thinking
(31:04):
that we would be okay with it, and we were
still like, no, that that's not okay because the people
that we are serving and representing, they either get a
three percent or no percent raise, and.
Speaker 3 (31:18):
So we.
Speaker 5 (31:20):
We fly back back against it. Well, the Republican Party
also did a resolution for that, and on the resolution
they said for us to reject our twenty two percent
increase until we can bring our budget down twenty two percent.
And so we just took that in and said, Okay,
we would like to go and run with that because
(31:43):
we do serve the people and it's a principle of
the matter. Well, it also set the president of giving
other government workers races. So this last year, the government
workers received the largest pay increase they've ever had, including
some judges got twenty two percent as well. Increase. Well,
it's hard to say no to their raise when you
(32:04):
don't say no to your own, and so that's kind
of what happened. But that caused a big riff because
a lot of it wasn't just on like your Rhino
side or the Democrat side that wanted it, but a
lot of your conservatives were wanting that pay raise as.
Speaker 3 (32:22):
Well, including one that our organization, the Bearded Patriots, has endorsed. Yeah,
that would be Tammy Nichols. I'm so disappointed. I am
so disappointed. In fact, the co founder of the Bearded
Patriots lives right in her district and he didn't have
(32:44):
anything before she even got elected. He didn't really have
anything bad to say about her. But it didn't is
his tone did not inspire confidence.
Speaker 5 (32:54):
Yeah, and you know, and a lot of them are
looking to be more full time lure. You know, they
you know a lot of them now, Tammy included Senator
Nichols and even Representative Heather Scott. They're now on these
interim committees that go all summer long, and they're both
(33:16):
in a chair or a vice chair position as well.
They sacrificed and compromised some of their principles to get
into those positions, and now we're seeing it in their
votes and now they're no longer. Heather Scott used to
be one of the top. She used to be where
I was at, you know, she was number one. And
(33:37):
now that's what happens when you start compromising on the
issues that you never thought you would compromise, like grocery tax.
Heather Scott and Mike Moyle went toe to doe on
the floor over grocery tax repill and now she's supporting
the credit over the repeal and you're just seeing that
that shift, and you know, and that happens they're at
(33:58):
the capital. If you don't stay ritted with the grassroots.
Speaker 3 (34:02):
Oh you know, I kind of like to think of
the of the Capital as the one ring. If anybody
who's who's read The Lord of the Rings means, you know,
anybody who possessed the ring over a long period of time,
the rings started to corrupt them, you.
Speaker 5 (34:24):
Know, and it and it does, And that's why it's
so important because when you get there, and especially if
you are further away. So I'm I'm up there all
week long and I come home on the weekends, and
of course on the weekends, I'm basically sleeping all day Saturday,
and then I'm back on the road to go back
to Boise on Sunday. But it's so important to stay
(34:45):
in front of your people to help keep you accountable,
because when you're up at the Capitol, you you are
bombarded by the lobbyists and the leadership and the governor
and their whole agenda what they want to accomplish, and
so you're always fine against that and it wears you
down to the point where he started thinking, well, I
want to get something done. Well, you know, sometimes it's
(35:09):
just better to not get anything done if you have
to compromise everything else that you're compromising on.
Speaker 3 (35:14):
Yeah, that just reminded me too, because I long before
I started following politics. I remember there's a good friend
of mine who he worked hard labor in a warehouse
and then stepped out and he ran in Ohio. He
(35:34):
ran for senate any one on a local level, just
like you. And then months later he said that this
job was more exhausting than all the heavy lifting and
physical labor he had to do at the warehouse.
Speaker 2 (35:51):
Oh.
Speaker 5 (35:51):
Absolutely. I used to be a waitress and I could
run circle. It was not nearly as stressful as that.
And it's hard as being the only no vote. So
I'm on the Joint Finance Appropriation Committee, and this last year,
the Gang of Eight, we decided that we needed to
have a pledge so that we could be accountable to
(36:13):
the people and hold firm because it's difficult when you
get caught up in the storm of all of it.
And so we decided that we were not going to
vote on any of the enhancement bills. Those are separate
from the maintenance that keep I to hope going, but
on all the maintenance, Yeah, the maintenance, they're not the maintenance,
(36:34):
the enhancement bills. We were not going to vote for
anything that had federal funding, anything that had additional full
time employment, and anything that was over one point two
percent for replacement costs. And so we made that pledge,
and being the only one of the Gang of eight
on that committee, it was nice to have that pledge
(36:56):
and have that support from the other because I was
the only no vote on many of those bills, and
to the point where they would call me into the
office saying, why are you voting no? We thought you
were only going to vote no on moral issues. And
I said, well, this is a moral issue for me.
I says, we're basically a slave to the lender. We're not.
(37:20):
This really isn't a balanced budget to me when we're
so dependent on the federal dollars. And I said, this
really is a moral issue for me. And he said, well,
if you don't vote yes, and you can't carry any
of them on the floor, and I said, well, that's
not my problem. I said, I didn't come here to
make your life easier. I'm here to make my constituents
life easier. So it's not easy being the only no vote.
(37:42):
I can see where it just starts wearing you down
year after year. And you know, that's kind of where
Heather Scott was at. She was she was the sole
one that was standing on the House side for a
long time, and then also on the sin As side
was Christy's itto. It wears you down and so you
(38:04):
get to the point where you either do like Christy
Zetto did and says I don't think I should run
again and she didn't run, and then or you stay
in and then you start compromising on you become the
person that you were fighting against in the beginning. And
that's kind of what happens.
Speaker 3 (38:23):
Yes, the nature of this beast, I mean, this is
Boise we're talking about. Just imagine if it was Washington,
I think, and you.
Speaker 5 (38:34):
Know what, we're part of the State Freedom Caucus and
we just did a summit in Texas with all the
other states. Every state is identical in these issues. DC
is the same as each state. It's just on a
bigger scale, but we all have the same issues where
(38:55):
people are have their egos going on. They want leadership,
they want can troll, they want their way and they
start losing focus of why they even are there, which
is the people. When we go out and campaign, it
is like a large job interview. You're going out there
knocking on doors doing events, saying you should hire me.
(39:18):
You know, I'm the one for the job. You need
to hire me. So that's a job interview. So it
makes me have fifty five thousand bosses and people have
forgotten that they get there and all of a sudden
they think that they're the boss and the people are
are not.
Speaker 3 (39:36):
Yes, Oh man, this hour has just gone by way
too fast. We're at the final quarter, so we're going
to take our final break and we'll be back to
wrap things up in about a minute and a half.
All right, ladies and gentlemen, we are back once again,
(39:57):
joined by Senator Glennita Zeiderveld, and this is our final segment.
Of course, Uh, you just you just gave me a
lot of information. I knew I was going to find
out something I didn't know, uh with this conversation, and
I'm sure there's still much more that I don't know
that I don't know because the swamp runs deep and
(40:19):
it is dirty. But thank you for not being afraid
to get your hands dirty and get you know, I
get if you're going to clean up, you're gonna get dirty.
Speaker 5 (40:29):
So and you know, it's kind of like with Charlie Kirk.
You know, he wasn't afraid to tell the truth. And
and I always tell my constituents that I says, the
moment that I'm not being attacked, it's probably the moment
that you need to be worrying about me, because I
probably have decided to join the government team. You know,
(40:50):
you know, you know when they're they're coming after me
and they're slinging mud, and you know that that's just
proving that I'm going there doing what I said I
was going to do, that I'm working for the people
and trying to hold that ground.
Speaker 3 (41:04):
You know, our good friend Iceman who hosts Motorcop Chronicles
podcast down in Louisiana, and I've got to have him
back on the show sometime. He told me, as a
law enforcement officer, if you haven't been sued, you're doing
something wrong.
Speaker 5 (41:24):
I haven't been sued yet, Thank goodness. I would, you know,
try to avoid that. But I do get a lot
of mud, you know, thrown at me. I just had
one of my constituents tell me that they were at
an event in Sun Valley and the governor was speaking
Governor Little, and he actually mentioned me and Christy Zido
(41:45):
by name and also our Magic Value Liberty Alliance group,
saying that we're getting in the way of him getting
anything done. And I says, well, good, I said, I
don't feel like we're doing that but to being named
by him, But I kind of feel the other way around.
I feel like he's kind of in the way of
us getting anything done.
Speaker 3 (42:05):
I'm trying to keep things positive, but when it comes
to Governor Little, I really don't have anything nice to say,
so I'll just pass on that. But you know, we
got we only got just under ten minutes left too,
And which brings us to the final topic, which is
the which is the good stuff, the fun stuff. You've
(42:26):
got a shindig planned coming up here in about two weeks.
Let's talk a little bit about that we do.
Speaker 5 (42:31):
It's my fourth annual backyard Dash, and yes, folks is
in my backyard. Bill can Billy can attest to that
he's been here. But this year I'm not feeding you.
Try tip you're getting tacos. Because the crowd was pushing
four hundred last year, and thankfully God multiplied the try
(42:53):
tip and we made it through. But so this year
you're getting tacos and we have guest speakers. Attorney General
Raul Abbadors will be here. We'll have doctor Ryan Cole,
who Whistle Blue during COVID with the against the vaccines
and all of that, so he'll be speaking. And then
(43:15):
we also have Leslie Minoukian, who is part of Health
Freedom Defense Fund, who goes out and fights for those
who have been harmed by a lot of your vaccines.
She'll be speaking as well, as well as the Gang
of Eight and whoever else decides to show up, as
far as legislators, and then I have a lot of
them that are actually running for office and challenging a
(43:38):
lot of our rhinos, and so they'll be here as well.
So people need to show up. It's free. I asked
that you just bring a dish. It's like a potleg
It's like a huge Patriot family reunion. And we show
up in my yard and we have lawn chairs, we eat,
we visit, and then after we're done with this speaking events,
(44:00):
we're gonna do a little bit of karaoke.
Speaker 3 (44:03):
Nice He's gonna be there again there do you know?
Speaker 5 (44:07):
Not this year because he has moved to Tennessee. But
he was at our event last night, the visual for
Charlie Kirk. He was there, so he's back in town
for a little bit. But he's not that he might
come to the event. But I just didn't have him
playing music this year because he was had moved.
Speaker 3 (44:28):
Gotcha, gotcha? Uh, John, if you were only on this
side of the pond over here or on of the country,
something you could have you could attend to remember. I
remember last year though, other than the try tip where
the potatoes so big that I needed a second plate
(44:49):
for one of them.
Speaker 5 (44:51):
Oh man, yeah, well we grow him big here, you know,
we grow big spuds. And and then we had this
the sweet corn from years Well.
Speaker 3 (45:01):
Yeah, that's right.
Speaker 5 (45:10):
But it'll be a lot of fun.
Speaker 3 (45:13):
You know what else I I think I'm gonna do,
Glenita is I'm gonna I'm gonna speak with the crew
with the Red Pill Expo, that being g Edward Griffin
and his crew, because if you've never been to a
Red Pill Expo, to me, they're a lot of fun
and to everybody else that attends them to plus they're
(45:35):
very insightful for various people who bring various subjects to
the table and the speakers. But they have this last time.
I was at the one in July that they had
in Tulsa, Oklahoma, and it was very interesting and I
talked about you and Josh a little bit with the
with these people that put on a presentation called why
(45:59):
fight city Hall when you can be city Hall? Of course,
they had a they had a senator out of Montana
and then a few local out of Oklahoma, and I'm like,
I'm gonna I'm going to speak to the crew they're
red Pill, you know, and put put your name as
a suggestion wherever the red Pill may be. When I
(46:22):
think they're planning on the next one being in Phoenix,
I haven't gotten any confirmation yet, but I'm going to
put in a suggestion for you and pretty the rest
of the Gang of eight. I think would make it
interesting if you're a part part of that discussion.
Speaker 5 (46:40):
Absolutely well, next year's an election, so we're pro you're
going to be really busy up until May running our campaigns.
But if it's after that, then yes, I would I
would love to be part of that encouragement because that's
my whole thing. I ran because I thought, if I'm
not part of the if I'm not part of the fix,
(47:02):
I'm part of the problem. And I just put my
name in there and learned a lot and ran, And
now I'm just wanting to encourage other people to run
because seeing what I'm seeing now, it's important that people
getting engaged, especially after Charlie Kirk and the things that
we're seeing in our education system. While these teachers that
(47:24):
are are over you know, teaching our children that are
are saying such ugly things about Charlie and his family,
I'm thinking people need to start getting on school boards.
Get on those school boards, get on library boards, get
on city council, county commissioners. Find your place and do
it and don't There's no excuses because who God calls
(47:48):
he equips. You know, you look at Charlie, you look
at me. I didn't have a college education, but I
was willing to put in the hard work and in
the time and basically stand on my principles. That's what's
needed more than a college education, as people that will
stand on their principles.
Speaker 3 (48:05):
That that's an indoctrination anymore. That I mean if you
if you want, if you want to be educated in
a certain field, I'm recommending a trade school because you know,
when I attended the CSI. For anybody outside of the
state listening, that's College of Southern Idaho, I remember, because
(48:26):
I went in for culinary arts and uh in or
if I was to get my degree and graduate, but
I ended up dropping out. I remember I had to
have a course in mathematics. And that's understandable because we
all used math and it's very necessary, but that you
have to have English one oh one and philosophy and
all that. And I'm like, and now I'm thinking, are
(48:46):
they going to indoctrinate people with uh what with DEI andans,
gender and and and and all that just so they
can they can cook in a restaurant? You know it's no,
absolutely not.
Speaker 5 (49:06):
And a lot of that comes with the federal money.
A lot of that, the federal money that they take
comes with those DEI strings, and you know, we need
to start just cutting back on on a lot of that.
Speaker 3 (49:18):
Yeah. And I'll tell you really quick too before we
end too. Is last year I when I found out
uh you know, and I say, I sent you a
message about it. I remember they had all these inappropriate
books in our public library. I called one of the
Boise libraries and asked them if they had like Playboy,
(49:39):
Penthouse or Hustler available, and I said, oh, no, we
don't have that available. I said, yeah, because it's not appropriate. Right, Well,
then why do you have these books available to the youth?
You might have you might as well have what I suggested.
Speaker 5 (49:56):
If you're going to have that available, and they are
guared to the just the illustrations that they do, they're
very cartoon and it scarred me, you know, the things
I was reading in these books. We had a lady
that actually came to the Twin Falls Library wanting to
donate two books because she's no longer homeschooling. And one
(50:18):
of them was Why God Made Me a Girl and
one was Why God Made Me a Boy? And she
wanted to donate them to the library, and the library
and there rejected the books. So they can reject books,
you know, they can ban They were banning books and
said that's not the direction we're going. Was the response
to this lady that was trying to donate books. Wow,
(50:41):
And that's why I want to encourage people to get
on that library board make a difference.
Speaker 3 (50:47):
Yes, oh my goodness, time has flown. But when again
is the is your backyard event? When is that again?
Speaker 5 (50:57):
Okay, Saturday September twenty seventh, start showing up at two o'clock,
and we just ask for people to just be patient
because we got to funnel you into our pasture. We're
trying to keep you off of our roads so we
can not upset our neighbors. Even though we have great neighbors,
we just want to keep it that way, and so
we want to get you funneled in and so it
(51:19):
takes a little while to get you into the pasture.
So just please be patient. Three o'clock is when we'll
start the event. We have a lot of different booths here.
We'll have Idaho Freedom Foundation, We'll have Magic Value, Liberty Alliance,
Idaho's Second Amendment, Health Freedom, Idaho White Rose Resistance, John Birch.
There's probably twelve different tables that will be here to
(51:43):
help give you information, to educate you, to get you
involved in some way.
Speaker 2 (51:49):
So come and be.
Speaker 5 (51:53):
This is about giving hope too. You know, I think
we need to start giving people hope because the more
hope they have, the more they'll fight and so this
is just to do all of that.
Speaker 3 (52:04):
So I've got to ask really quick. You said John
Birch is going to have a booth there, Does that
mean a gentleman named William Jasper is going to be there?
Speaker 5 (52:15):
No, it'll be just the local uh leader Liz Nick.
I mean unless he brings him. It could it could happen, Yeah,
it could happen.
Speaker 3 (52:25):
Yeah, William was there in Tulsa as well.
Speaker 5 (52:30):
He came to our Freedom Fest. When we started Magic
Valley Liberty Alliance, we had William Jasper here. He was
one of the speakers, and we have actually had Alex Newman.
Alex Newman and I have become friends since then, and
hopefully I'm hoping to get him to come and speak
maybe in the spring.
Speaker 3 (52:47):
He's a good friend of mine too.
Speaker 5 (52:49):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (52:50):
Every time he's been at every single red Pill that g.
Edward Griffin has put has put on. He's in fact,
he's the only one that's been at the every single
one of them.
Speaker 5 (53:01):
Well, then I definitely need to go. So if Alex
goes and I need to be there.
Speaker 2 (53:06):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (53:07):
But that is all the time we have. If anybody
wants to follow up with you, you know, help you
out donate when the campaign's coming up. Where do they go?
Speaker 5 (53:17):
Well, is I'm a blessed with having a youth name
unique names. So Glenda dot com is my website, So
g l E N N E d a dot com
And for my email it's basically the same thing, Glenita
at Glennada dot com.
Speaker 3 (53:33):
All right, and on tap for next week. Uh, we're
gonna be talking with the one who calls himself the
Patriot Punk. He's got a long mohawk, this real tall mohawk, John,
and he's out of Tennessee. And actually he needs to
speak with Todd because he he focuses mainly on the
(53:53):
local politics in the Tennessee area. So it'll be interesting.
Speaker 4 (53:58):
That's gonna be fun, hopefully, and we get a mohawk
in the screen, you know, indeed.
Speaker 3 (54:03):
Uh gladeda God bless you. Thank you very much for
joining us and looking forward to seeing you at the
end of the month.
Speaker 5 (54:11):
Sounds good. Nice, Nice to see you, Billy, and nice
to see you John.
Speaker 3 (54:17):
Yes, yeah, And ladies and gentlemen, thank you very much
for tuning into Patriot Confederation. God save the Republic of
the United States of America
Speaker 2 (54:28):
And we will live back down from buying for on
the feed America
