Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's a massive revolt, a revolt that the media is
refusing to acknowledge, much less to report on. There's a
big lie that's been taking place in the media now
for the last couple of days. So I'm going to
break it down for you why the media does not
want to tell you the truth. The true reason why
so many Americans were stranded because of airlines over this

(00:24):
holiday weekend is because of the vaccine mandates, and there
was a revolt of those mandates. That's right, you heard me,
a revolt. Now, it's not hard to figure this out.
It's pretty easy. Finally people are starting to report on
this after many in the social media world blasted the

(00:45):
big ABC's, NBC's of the world when they acted like
the reason why somebody Southless flights were somehow cancel is
because of FAA shortages. Not exactly true, and because of
bad weather also not true. Now, I mentioned to you
just a moment ago that other airlines had like two

(01:06):
percent cancelations while Southwest had a massive amount of people
they were stranded. Let me tell the real story behind this,
and again, this is the story the media doesn't want
you to know. But Southwest air pilots are seeking to
block a COVID vaccination mandate. Southwest Airline pilots ask a
court to temporary block the company from carrying out federally
mandated coronavirus vaccinations until an existing lawsuit of allegious labor

(01:31):
law violated violations is resolved. The Southwest Airlines Pilot Association
filing on Friday. Okay, now this is easy to find.
They publicize this, but the media doesn't want you to
really know why people are being stranded. That what Southwest
Airlines pilots are doing right now is they're revolting and
it's working. Also ask for an immediate hearing on the

(01:51):
requests before a federal court in Dallas, claiming the carrier
has continued to take unilateral actions that violate terms of
the Railway Labor Act, which governs airline union relations. Those
steps include the COVID nineteen vaccination requirement quote, the new
vaccine mandate unlawfully imposes new conditions of employment, and the

(02:13):
new policy threatens termination of any pilot not fully vaccinated
by December eight, twenty twenty one. The legal filing reads, Now, again,
the media could have told you the story breaking news.
Southwest Airline pilots revolt and a silent walkout over the weekend,
which is stranding people. And they could have done the
story the honest way, but they deliberately chose not to.

(02:34):
With headlines. And I'm going to readjo a CNN headline.
Southwest Airlines councils more than a thousand flights Sunday, their
first line, the long weekend got a bit longer for
Southwest customers at the airline cancel more than the thousand
flights Sunday, roughly twenty seven percent of its daily operations.
It's the second day of mass cancelations by the world's

(02:56):
largest low cost carrier. The company blamed the insulations on
air traffic control problems and limits staffing in Florida, as
well as bad weather. Now, immediately right there, you should
fix that story, right, you should say, however, the real
reason for this happening is the pilots are refusing to

(03:17):
go to work and they suit on Friday. But nowhere
in the CNN story is what I just said for
you in there. And if you think Scenen's the only
one that's doing it this way, you're wrong. Let me
give you the headline from USA Today just five hours ago,
Southwest Airlines flight was continue a thousand sentay cancelations and counting.

(03:40):
Kathleen Miller was sleeping when the text from Southeast Airlines
arrived at one eighteen am Sunday, her seven thirty am
flight from Phoenix of Dallas was canceled. The Pennsylvania woman
didn't see the text until she was at the airport,
where Southwis representatives directed her to a snaking rebooting line
next to the ticket counter. She stood in line for
forty five minutes and left with a Lessons factory rebooking

(04:01):
option eight Tuesday flight. Luckily, we have relatives here in
the city, she said straight in Southwest. Pastors across the
country are struggling with a second day of mass flight
cancelations by the Naacians. The largest domestic airline, Southwest is
cancel one eighteen Sunday flights as of two pm Eastern,
according to flight tracker flight Awair. That's twenty eight percent
of the airline scheduled flights, and the highest of any

(04:23):
US airline by a wide margin. American Airlines is canceled
sixty three flights, that's two percent of its operations, while
Spirit Airlines canceled thirty two flights, or four percent of
its flights. According to flight Awair, the US airports were
the heaviest flight cancelations for departures and rivals Sunday are
all big Southwest hubs, even if the airline doesn't refer

(04:44):
to them as such, like Denver, Baltimore, dawnaslat Field of
Las Vegas, and Chicago Midway Southwest Sunday's cancelations. By the way,
I'm reading this in exact orders. It's being written in
the USA today. You notice they're still not telling you
the real story that this is because the pilots are
refusing to get vaccinated and they out a lawsuit on Friday,
and this is their quiet way of doing this. They
don't want you to know that there's powers in numbers, folks.

(05:06):
They don't want you to know or be inspired by
what Southwest Airlines is doing right now. They don't want
you to understand that Southwest Airlines is putting together something
that everybody else should mimic. There are power in numbers.
What Southwest Airlines is doing is victory for the little guy.

(05:31):
They're sticking it to the man and the federal government
with a mandate that is being challenged in court. A
mandate that should be challenged in court, a mandate that
I would argue is unconstitutional. And that's what they're arguing.
It's a violation of their rights and their employment agreement.
Think about it, and that is exactly why they're not

(05:55):
telling you that part of the story. They just want
to act like it's whether. Now you notice how far
I had to read the story and still they have
not told you any of the truth. At USA today,
So CNN USA today, they're in on this together. Start tribune.
Let me read you their headline. You're ready for this one.
Southwest Airlines cancels more than a thousand fights Sunday. Southwest

(06:18):
Airlines canceled that hundreds of flights over the weekend, blaming
the woes on air traffic control issues and weather. The
airline cancel more of the thousand flights in total, twenty
nine percent of its schedule as of seven pm Sunday,
according to flight tracker flight Aware. That was the highest
rate by far the US major airlines. Next in line
was Allegiant, which canceled six percent of its fights, American Airlines,
which came with five percent of its flights. In Spirit,

(06:38):
which cames with four percent on Sunday, according to the
Flight Tracker. On Saturday, Southwest Airlines cancel more than eight
hundred flights. Southwest Airlines set an email statement that has
experienced weather challenges and its Florida airport at the beginning
of the weekend, which were compounded by quote unexpected air
traffic controller issues in the same region. That's a lie.
The FAA has come out and saying it's a lie.

(06:58):
Those issues triggered delay and prompted significant cancelations for the airline,
they say beginning Friday evening. That is just not true.
They're lying to you. Start Tribune again, lying to you
because they don't want you to know that there are
power in numbers with employees and if we all gained
up together on these ridiculous rules, we can win. Even

(07:19):
the Dallas Morning News where Dallas love Field is lying
to you. Here's why Southwest Airlines had to cancel more
than a thousand flights Sunday. Their headline reads, Dallas based
Southwest plans more than three thousand and six and flights
on Sunday than most of any day since COVID nineteen
pandemic began. Because holiday weekend but nearly one third of
those were canceled. They went to the same crap. Southwest

(07:42):
Airlines cancel more than a thousand flights Sunday, and it
tried to desperate to recover from disruptive weather in Florida
Friday and fulfilling ambitious schedule complicated by ongoing staffing shorges.
None of these news organizations are doing their damn job.
Many airports with large Southwest presence saw dozens of lights canceled. Again,
none of them are doing their damn job. Now one

(08:03):
of them is Bloomberg is finally reporting on the truth.
Now they're telling the truth that the pilots are calling
in sick. Quote. The new vaccine mandates from their lawsuit
on Friday unlawfully imposes new conditions of employment and new
policies threatens termination of any pilot not fully vaccinated by

(08:24):
December the eight, twenty twenty one. The legal filing sets
Southwest Airlines additional new and unilateral notification of the parties
collective bargaining agreement as clear is in clear violation of
the RLA. The lawsuit states, you know, these pilots with
Southwest Airlines, in my opinion, are heroes because they're standing

(08:44):
up for their rights. I know there's people they're gonna
be mad at them, and I understand that, right, there's
people that are upset with them, and I get it.
I I really do. I understand it, all right, I do.
I understand why you're upset. You don't want your flight
to be canceled. But at the same time, don't be
mad at the pilots. Don't be mad at the staff.

(09:05):
If you want to be mad at somebody, be mad
at the airlines and be madth the government putt for
putting these mandates on these pilots who are finally saying no.
And the scumbags with big media not telling you the
real story is flat out disgusting. Even the Dallas Morning
News lying to the people in Dallas where love Field

(09:28):
is saying, oh, well, this is a flat This had
to do with the FAA, and sure no it did not.
They said it had to deal with an ambitious schedule. Noah,
that's alive from Southwest Airlines. These disruptions were not because
of whether. If they were, all these other airlines would
have had huge disruptions and they did not either. Now

(09:52):
I have lost a lot of respect for Southwest Airlines.
I'm going to read you their statement quote, we're experiencing
weather challenges in our Florida airport at the beginning of
the weekend, challenge that were compounded by unexpected air traffic
control issues in the same region. That's just a lie.
The FAA has already said that's a lie. They said
that trigger delays and prompted significant cancelations for US beginning
Friday evening. That's also a lie. The spokesperson for Southwest Airline,

(10:16):
Bred Hawkins, is a liar. Quote. We've continued diligent work
throughout the weekend to resenter operations with a focus on
getting aircraft and crews reposition to take care of our customers.
With fewer frequencies between cities and our current schedule, recovering
during operational challenges is more difficult and prolonged. Again, that's
a lie. They're lying to you, and the Dallas More

(10:39):
News should say that, but they're not now and they
will write this quote. North Airline reported widespread delays or
cancelation issues. The Federal Aviation Administration said it had staffing
issues at just one facility in Jacksonville that combined with
military training widespreads of your weather created delays and cancelations.
Now the other airlines had to deal with these same problems. Yeah,

(11:02):
two days in a row. Come on, folks, We're smarter
than this. Finally, the Dallas Morning News way down their
article when most people have already tuned out, said a
few hundred delays and cancelations can grow into thousands over
a weekend, quote unions for pilots and flight attendants to
blame the airlines for spreading operations too thin. Social media
posts from stringed travelers were quick to blame the problem

(11:24):
on the airlines recently announced vaccine mandate. Oh so see
you guys on social media, you're really just making up crap.
Southwest Airlines pilot associations, which issue the airline over the
treatment of pilots in recent months, said pilots were not
intentionally causing any disruption. To retaliate over the airlines mandating
vaccinations for all employees to comply with federal government rules,

(11:46):
well they suit on Friday, Come on, connect the dots.
Swap up is aware of the operational difficulties affecting Southwest
Airlines to day due to a number of issues, but
we can say with confidence that our pilots are not
participating in any of this shoal job actions that you
said in a statement got it wink. In recent months,

(12:09):
forth Worth based American Airlines and Spirit Airlines also experienced
similar operational problems, and it sometimes took as long as
a week for the airlines to get enough planes and
crew members back in place to stop the fallout. On Sunday,
Southwest executive vice president Daily Operations and a memo to
employees apologizing for the operational problems. I'm sure knowing it

(12:30):
be releaked to the media to quote, I'm sorry for
the struggles that you and our customers are experiencing. Once again,
he said in a memo. Although we have we were
staffed for the weekend, we could not participate this significant
disruption that was created from unexpected air traffic control issues
and bad weather across our Florida stations. No one's believing this.

(12:51):
Just so you know, the pilots are feeding information to
guys like me, and they are absolutely saying this as
a walk out because they're being treated like they have
no rights. Good for them. This is proof of exactly

(13:12):
what can happen when you join together and you fight back,
plain and simple, when you join together and you fight
back and you disrupt things like they're doing. And I
hope other airlines do it too. You know, when they
start putting this crap on these big businesses, I hope

(13:32):
a lot of people start fighting back. I hope there's
a lot of people that say no more. I hope
there's a lot of people that say, oh, I'm not
putting up with this crap. I'm not going to be
treated this way. I'm not gonna be treated like I
have no rights. I'm not gonna be treated like I
like like I have no ability to stand up for myself,

(13:55):
no ability to fight back, that my feelings are, my
health is something they can just dictate to me and
tell me that I must do it. I hope that
everybody is paying attention to this, and I hope that
everybody's paying attention to this realizes that there is power
in numbers. These Southwest Airline pilots are heroes. You know.

(14:21):
You look at what's happening in California right now, another
great example. So California is losing their minds right now
and deciding that the most important thing for the people
in California is to save them from the shopping aisle
of the kids toys section. Gavin Newsom is set now
signed a law requiring gender neutral aisles in toy stores

(14:46):
so that kids don't think that there are certain toys
they should play with because they're a boy, and there's
other toys they should play with because they're a girl.
They say it's pure evil and they're gonna stop it now. Well,
this is happening. You have a state that's like totally
out of control. In fact, I want to play for you.
What's happening right now with you as ports, specifically in
California that are facing a record backlog ahead of the

(15:10):
holiday season. And instead of dealing with this issue at
the ports in California, oh no, no, no, we're we're
gonna make sure we got a gender neutral toy section.
There are growing concerns we could see empty store shelves
this holiday season. A lot of shipment's remain stuck at
sea because of supply chain issues. So who's to blame
and what's being done to fix it? CBS is Carter

(15:32):
Evans went looking for answers. Normally you have more Barbie's, Yes, normally.
The whole thing has Barbie's holiday sales are high stakes
for the Game Chess toy store. So do you think
hot wheels are going to sell out this here? They're
absolutely going to sell out if you want to train
for Christmas by it now. Store owner Miriam Alhamami says
almost all of her toys are already out on the floor.

(15:54):
She started ordering for the holidays in March. So what
happens when the stuff on your shelves here sells out?
I don't have anything to replace it with. New orders
likely won't arrive by Christmas. That's because goods made overseas
are spending a record amount of time in transit. Cargo
ships are crowding ports from New York to Los Angeles,

(16:14):
where a quarter million containers are currently floating off the coast.
According to LA Port director Jeans A. Rokan, these stacks
of containers seem to be growing. There's no room to
put this cargo. Our docks are full. People need to
come and pick up their cargo. Only half the truck
drivers registered to do business here visit us at least
once a week. We need more drivers on the job. Truckers,

(16:36):
By the way, you want to know who's to blame,
for this. I love how they start at the beginning
of this and they're like, who do we blame for this?
I think, exactly, you blame for this. You blame the
Biden administration. You blame all these comedies in California that
have incentivized people to not work, have paid them to
not work. You want to know who to blame. That's
who you blame here, and not because you're like trying
to find someone to blame. All right, I don't want

(16:58):
to make that clear. I'm not advocating for finding someone
to blame just to blame them, just to point the
finger at them. This is just the reality of the situation.
The reality is that you can't find a worker in
this country. We found out today they're thirteen plus million
job openings right now in a country with five percent unemployment.

(17:21):
But those numbers are much higher in California and other
states that are liberal because we have de incentivized people
to go to work. That's right, we have d incentivized
people to go to work. Now, you may say, are
we really de incentivising people to go to work? Yes, yes,
we really are. We have said that we will take

(17:43):
care of you. We have said we will be a
nanny state for you. We have said that whatever you need,
the government will provide for you. You don't need to
go to work. That's what we've done. So when you
ask where are the drivers and why are they not
showing up? Ask such a dumb question on TV, please
CBS News because the answer is already there. Okay, the

(18:08):
answer is already there. The answer is very clear. The
answer to the question is obvious. The Biden administration has
clearly deincentivized people from even going to work. I cannot
tell you how many small businesses right now are teetering
because they can't find workers. Cannot tell you right now

(18:31):
what's happened to profit margins in this country. When it
comes to restaurants and it comes to retail, you can't
find people to work. And when you find people that work,
you're having to overpay them just to get them to
show up. And the quality of the work is not
going up with the money you're having to offer. It's
just pure survival of your business. I know people that

(18:52):
we had a real conversation. I was at a conservative
conference this weekend Amfest, and out accow coversation with multiple
small business owners that are all say in the same thing,
I'm going to figure out a way to start making
money without having to depend on people to show up
to make that money, because I can't find dependable workers,
and I can't compete with a government giving people free

(19:14):
money to not go to work. They said that even
the workers that I'm getting now that I'm having to
pay premium to even get them to show up, they're
not better workers. They're just they're they're lazy. Many of
them are extremely lazy because they know that you're less
likely to fire them because there's no one to replace them.
And the workers have figured that out right. They realize

(19:36):
that they can be a lazy employee right now and
probably get away with it. So when CBS students like,
we're gonna figure this out, We're gonna figure out who's
to blame for all of these port shortage its driver shortages,
it's workers at the dock shortages. And it's not like
they're not offering you good money to do this. It's

(19:58):
how do you compete with a govern that pays you
to not work? Now, the government's like, well, if you
just pay people living wage, right, Democrats say that then
people would show for work. That's no longer true. Everybody
I know now is at a quote wage depending on
where you're on the country. A lot of places are
well about fifteen dollars an hour. Okay, in places that

(20:20):
are a lot less expensive to live, everybody I know
is at twelve, thirteen, fourteen dollars an hour minimum. People
are offering signing bonuses. Now again, you look at the
number of job openings in this country as we speak.
You want to know who to blame. You blame a
federal government and the Biden administration Democrats that have actually

(20:40):
incentivized people to not work. Now, there's others that will
say to you, well, Ben, hold on a second, the
federal government isn't giving as much as the private sector. Again,
You've got to think about this. If I can have
zero responsibility and let's say make the equivalent of twelve
dollars an hour, or I have to wake up and
actually go do manual labor for feen dours an hour

(21:00):
fifteen hours an hour, which one am I going to choose?
A lot of people are going to choose the total
freedom and lack of responsibility option. Happily for twelve dollar
equivalent an hour, And that is exactly what the federal
government has done. So don't act like you can't figure
out this equation at CBS News. Okay, I'm gonna back

(21:26):
it up a little bit. I want you to hear
again as they try to act like this is some
grand mystery, it's not. A port director Jeans Siroco. These
stacks of containers seem to be growing. There's no room
to put this cargo. Our docks are fulled. People need
to come and pick up their cargo. Only half the
truck drivers registered to do business here visit us at

(21:46):
least once a week. We need more drivers on the job.
Trucker George and I A says support needs to move faster.
You had an appointment at seven pm to pick up
a load. Yes, I didn't get either till two am.
Before this year, how many loads so we could you
pick up? About twenty or so? And how many now
about six? The Port of la does not operate around

(22:07):
the clock, like ports and other parts of the world.
President biden Is said he'd like to see the ports
operating twenty four hours. Why isn't that happening. You've got
so many nodes of the supply chain that have to
get on the same schedule. If we can get the
warehouses to open around the clock, that would be important
to us. Forty percent of Alhamammi's business depends on holiday shopping.

(22:28):
It's tough as a consumer because I also am going
to celebrate prosiness, and it's tough as a business owner.
It's gotten so bad that some large retailers are going
to extremes just to avoid the log chin here at
Los Angeles. Companies like Walmart have chartered entire ships to
deliver goods to less congested ports. Of course, that adds

(22:50):
tremendous costs that small businesses just can't afford. You listen
to these small business owners right now. They got decimated
as the lockdowns. They got decimated because of what happened
with the economy. They got decimated with COVID on top
of the lockdowns, on top of the bureaucrats and all

(23:12):
the bs that they've done, and now they're going to
get nailed again. When as you heard this toy store,
forty percent of her entire years businesses in the holidays.
She has nothing to sell. She will sell out of
everything that she has, but she can't charter a boat

(23:33):
like the big box stores Cam, we can't. We heard
about Costco. They've chartered boats out for two years. They
have multiple ships that they are now chartering that they
are using just for them. Now, I've heard a ton
of people say the same thing over and over again.
You better get your Christmas shopping done now, because if
you don't get your Christmas shopping done now, don't expect

(23:55):
to have anything when it comes close. If you're waiting
till the last day. If you're one of those kind
of shoppers, good luck, Because she said, once the stuff
on my shelves is sold, I don't have anything to
replace it with. And look at the date, we're more
than two months away. You think you can wait till
Black Friday to get the good stuff? No, good luck.

(24:18):
You think you can wait a long time to get this? No,
you can't go again, good luck? See how that works
out for you. This is the new reality. And while
this is happening, instead of actually dealing with what's going
on at the port, Gavin Knews some assigning laws requiring
gender neutral iyers in toy stores. These toy stores won't

(24:42):
even be around if you don't help them get the
applies they need at the ports. For Christmas. You listen
that last lady doing that interview, and you listen to
what she said, and you listen to house she said it.
She may go out of business and never come back.

(25:02):
She's already having to compete with Amazon, She's already having
to compete with online retailer. She's already having to compete
with Walmart. It's already hard enough. We're making it impossible
for these small business owners even survive, and then we're
having to pay wages through the roof. Just get anybody
to show up, because every small business is now competing
with the federal government, who gives you the best job
you've ever had in your life, a job where you

(25:23):
don't even have to show up to get paid. Every
single small business in America is competing with the government
who gave you the best job you ever had, literally
paying you to stay at home and to not work.
We had a dismal act, not just a way horrific
jobs report that came out on Friday, a job's report

(25:45):
that's saying that came so close now, I mean, I
mean so not even close to the expectations of what
people thought. And the reason why that happens is pretty clear.
The reason why it happened was obvious because this administration
and has incentivized people to not work. I want you

(26:05):
to hear part of a conversation on Fox News Channel
with Maria Bartoma warning that the US is becoming a
welfare state, saying it's having a very negative impact on
the American people because we're literally incentivising people to be
lazy and to not work, to be lazy and to

(26:26):
not work. And these new job numbers proved when there
are eleven million jobs open today, Well, unfortunately, there are
eleven million jobs, but employers can't get the people to
come back to work to take the jobs. So you
can have all the jobs in the world, but if
an employer actually can't find that skilled person to put

(26:49):
in that job, you're out of a job, and you're
out of a person getting that job. So that's why
I'm focusing on this labor participation rate. It sounds complicated,
it's not sixty one percent of those people are actually participating.
That means they're either looking for a job or they're
in the workforce right now. This is the number that
sticks out to you in this report because it underlines

(27:11):
the negative impact of all of that stimulus being thrown
at people. Even though the unemployment extended benefits went away,
They're still saying, I'm not ready to go back to work.
I've got enough money, and I'm expecting more money to
come at me. Creating this welfare state. Not good. This
welfare state negative impact of the simulus being thrown at people.

(27:40):
You look at these numbers. The Labor Department is reporting
a sixty one percent labor participation right in the United
States of America. That means thirty nine percent of Americans
are just not participating in working. And she said, these
jobs reports share the United States has created a welfare state,
plain and simple, as a result of the stimulus money

(28:00):
being thrown all these people. You have eleven million job openings,
you have empty shelves and people begging for employees. But
employers can't get the people to come back to work
to take these jobs because the government's still sending them money.
And even though the extended benefits, the bonus money has

(28:20):
gone away, people are still saying, no, I'm not ready
to go back to work. I've kind of gotten used
to this, kind of gotten used to the government just
giving me stuff, right, I've kind of gotten used to
the government just handing me over a pretty decent amount
of money every month. I've gotten used to maybe working
under the table a little bit, getting a little cash

(28:42):
here and there. Right, I've got I've gotten used to that.
It's pretty nice when this happens, right, You get free
money and there's zero accountability. You don't have to go
to work, you don't have to do anything. You just
get to hang out and we send you money. We

(29:07):
literally send you cash. It's incredible how lazy we have become.
Thirty nine percent of people that are eligible to work
right now are not working. They don't want to work.
All right, We'll have more on this tomorrow, I can
promise you. So please make sure you share this podcast.
Help us grow by sharing this on social media with

(29:30):
your family and your friends. If you see that little
plus arrow, you can share it, Okay. All you gotta
is share it with your family and friends and let
them know write as a review wherever you're listening to
this podcasts right now. That will help us grow more
than anything else you can do, and we appreciate your support.
See you back here tomorrow.
