I'm 10 00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:37,159 just I've been watching and listening to the confirmation hearing 11 00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:43,359 of Pete Hegseth or Secretary of Defense. And all right, 12 00:00:43,399 --> 00:00:47,280 so here is this socialist guy up in wherever northeast 13 00:00:47,359 --> 00:00:49,920 is stand Angus King? 14 00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:54,479 Speaker 3: You express that with approval, Senator, I'm very familiar with 15 00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:57,719 that as a concept, having spent a year at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, 16 00:00:57,759 --> 00:01:00,719 guarding seven hundred of those that attacked us on nine eleven. 17 00:01:00,759 --> 00:01:03,479 Speaker 4: I just want to be clear, are we are we 18 00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:06,040 going to abide by the by the Geneva Convention and 19 00:01:06,079 --> 00:01:10,599 the prohibitions on torture or are we not As a circumstance. 20 00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:13,319 Speaker 3: As I've stated multiple times, the Geneva Conventions are what 21 00:01:13,359 --> 00:01:16,959 we base ours What an American first national security policy 22 00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:19,680 is not going to do is hand its prerogatives over 23 00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:23,439 to international bodies that make decisions about how our men 24 00:01:23,439 --> 00:01:27,280 and women make decisions on the battlefield. America first understands 25 00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:29,920 we send Americans for a clear mission and. 26 00:01:29,879 --> 00:01:31,000 Speaker 1: A clear objective. 27 00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:35,280 Speaker 3: We have equipped them properly for that objective, everything the 28 00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:38,519 very few, and then we stand behind them with the 29 00:01:38,599 --> 00:01:42,480 rules of engagement that allow them to fight decisively understanding 30 00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:43,280 America's energers. 31 00:01:43,359 --> 00:01:47,159 Speaker 4: Which is why we see I just have a few seconds. 32 00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:50,599 I was very disturbed in your opening state, but where 33 00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:53,840 you you talked about the priorities that you have. We 34 00:01:53,879 --> 00:01:56,159 will work with our partners and allies to deter aggression 35 00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:59,480 they know Pacific from the communist Chinese. There's not a 36 00:02:00,359 --> 00:02:04,000 mentioned in this statement about Ukraine or Russia. Is this 37 00:02:04,159 --> 00:02:06,200 code for We're going to abandon Ukraine? 38 00:02:06,359 --> 00:02:08,080 Speaker 1: Oh my god, Senator. 39 00:02:07,799 --> 00:02:10,800 Speaker 3: The president this is that's a presidential level policy decision. 40 00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:12,759 He's made it very clear that he would like to 41 00:02:12,759 --> 00:02:16,199 see a end to that conflict. We know who the 42 00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:18,400 aggressor is, we know who the good guy is. We'd 43 00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:20,840 like to see it as advantageous for the Ukrainians as possible, 44 00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:21,879 but that war needs. 45 00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:23,599 Speaker 4: You talk a lot about the terms of China. I 46 00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:26,639 would submit that Jijingping is watching what we do very carefully. 47 00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:29,479 If we abandon Ukraine, that would be the strongest single 48 00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:33,520 possible to Jijingping that he can take Taiwan without significant 49 00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:34,680 resistance from this country. 50 00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:35,639 Speaker 5: Thank you, Senator. 51 00:02:36,199 --> 00:02:36,520 Speaker 6: I don't know. 52 00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:38,439 Speaker 2: I mean I think maybe having like a vegetable as 53 00:02:38,439 --> 00:02:43,039 a president that might also send a message to the Communists. 54 00:02:42,479 --> 00:02:45,360 Speaker 1: To mister Hedge's leadership record concern. 55 00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:47,639 Speaker 2: All right, so this is so that was Angus King, 56 00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:55,159 Senator Angus King. Yeah, like really focusing like a laser 57 00:02:55,719 --> 00:03:01,800 onto this idea that Hegzeth outlined in his book, talking 58 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:08,240 about letting our troops go and fight and win with 59 00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:13,759 clear defined missions and exit strategies, so we are not 60 00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:18,039 bogged down in twenty plus years of war. You go in, 61 00:03:18,319 --> 00:03:21,439 you do the mission, you get out, and that's it. Right, 62 00:03:21,479 --> 00:03:25,520 that's a part of that. And we heard all of 63 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:29,759 these stories at the time, right where troops on the 64 00:03:29,759 --> 00:03:33,879 battlefield were trying to trying to adhere to rules of 65 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:38,759 engagement that made it impossible for them to carry out 66 00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:42,120 the mission objective for them to win. And that's what 67 00:03:42,199 --> 00:03:44,879 he's talking about that you start off at the you know, 68 00:03:45,159 --> 00:03:50,520 with he talked about these different echelons of or layers or. 69 00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:51,280 Speaker 1: Levels of. 70 00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:57,240 Speaker 2: Rules Geneva Convention, and then you've got this, you know, 71 00:03:57,599 --> 00:04:02,080 the Uniform Military or the Uniform Code of Military Justice. 72 00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:04,000 You have those rules, and then you have the rules 73 00:04:04,039 --> 00:04:07,039 of engagement. And by the time it filters all the 74 00:04:07,039 --> 00:04:10,800 way down through the ranks to what he when he 75 00:04:10,919 --> 00:04:14,919 was in the service as a major or sergeant major, 76 00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:18,680 he had to instruct all of the NATO troops that 77 00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:22,800 were coming in what the rules of engagement were. So 78 00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:27,399 heg Seth knew he knows what those rules are, and 79 00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:30,079 he was the guy who was first in through the door, 80 00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:34,160 kicking down the doors in these various war zones. He 81 00:04:34,319 --> 00:04:38,920 knows what the practical impact of those rules of engagement 82 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:42,360 are on the troops. He would go through the door. 83 00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:45,600 One of the stories is that he would be first 84 00:04:45,639 --> 00:04:48,079 through the door. He would be the first one in. 85 00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:51,920 So this way, any of the people that were under 86 00:04:51,959 --> 00:04:54,720 his command, if they made the wrong decision, it would 87 00:04:54,759 --> 00:05:00,959 ruin their lives. So he would go in first. And 88 00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:06,000 Angus Smith or sorry, Angus King, tries to turn this 89 00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:09,920 into you support waterboarding and torture. 90 00:05:13,439 --> 00:05:16,399 Speaker 1: Like I thought Mazie Herono. 91 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:19,120 Speaker 2: Was the village idiot that had broken containment, but it 92 00:05:19,199 --> 00:05:22,199 might actually be Angus King two. Maybe okay, maybe there 93 00:05:22,199 --> 00:05:24,600 are multiple villages here. They are from different sides of 94 00:05:24,639 --> 00:05:29,360 the country. King is from what Maine or something. Mazie 95 00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:35,519 Herono unable to ask a follow up question, likely because 96 00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:36,279 either she's drunk. 97 00:05:36,319 --> 00:05:37,959 Speaker 1: I'm kidding, it's not true. I don't know if she 98 00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:38,839 was or not, But like. 99 00:05:40,319 --> 00:05:44,000 Speaker 2: Those questions are scripted for her, and it is so 100 00:05:44,639 --> 00:05:50,319 obvious because she cannot think past the question mark in 101 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:55,879 the sentence. So there's this lead in of false assumptions 102 00:05:55,920 --> 00:06:00,160 and smears and stupidity. Because it's maze Herono, there's always 103 00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:05,160 a heavy dose of stupidity. So you have this this 104 00:06:05,519 --> 00:06:08,680 narrative building in the front part of the question, and 105 00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:12,519 then a question that really isn't connected to the narrative 106 00:06:12,639 --> 00:06:18,079 or the smearing, and it's designed to get him to answer, 107 00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:19,120 please answer yes or no? 108 00:06:19,399 --> 00:06:22,319 Speaker 1: Yes or no? When did you stop beating your wife? 109 00:06:22,399 --> 00:06:24,480 Speaker 2: Yes or no? Like that doesn't even make sense, Senator, 110 00:06:24,519 --> 00:06:26,399 I'm gonna take that as a failure to answer, And 111 00:06:26,439 --> 00:06:31,399 then she just moves on so bad, almost as bad 112 00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:36,000 as Senator Kristen Gillibrand, who is in I think a 113 00:06:36,079 --> 00:06:40,240 perpetual screech. I'm not sure she has another setting in 114 00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:45,199 her delivery. It seems like just this perpetual screeching where 115 00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:50,720 and her wind up, her smear assumptions go on for 116 00:06:50,879 --> 00:06:54,160 like five minutes or something, and then makes all of 117 00:06:54,199 --> 00:06:58,160 these allegations and stuff you you. At one point she 118 00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:01,040 said that he had accused women of no not being competent, 119 00:07:02,079 --> 00:07:06,199 and he never he never said that. But Jellibrand just 120 00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:08,759 says it and then moves on, says a bunch of 121 00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:11,759 other stuff, other stuff, other stuff, other stuff. Sorry, others 122 00:07:11,839 --> 00:07:14,720 do other's dob by, there's stuff, and then throws out 123 00:07:14,759 --> 00:07:18,040 a question that's detached. Why don't you want women in 124 00:07:18,079 --> 00:07:23,279 the military. Okay, first off, I never said I don't 125 00:07:23,279 --> 00:07:29,279 want women in the military. Heg Seth is talking about 126 00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:35,000 high standards for all of the different missions, all of 127 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:39,439 the different specializations, right, and so if you are a 128 00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:42,680 machine gunner, you have to be able to carry the 129 00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:46,199 freaking machine gun, like that's the standard. You have to 130 00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:50,560 be able to carry the weight, literally carry the weight. 131 00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:54,759 If you cannot meet that standard, then you should not 132 00:07:55,399 --> 00:07:59,920 have that role if you cannot meet the physical standards. 133 00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:03,800 You should not have the role that the physical standards require, 134 00:08:04,279 --> 00:08:11,079 because the weaponry doesn't get lighter. Right, the shells if 135 00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:15,439 you're you know, are in artillery, they were Tom Cotton 136 00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:18,759 mentioned this. A single artillery shell is like one hundred pounds. 137 00:08:19,959 --> 00:08:22,000 If you can't lift that thing, then you have no 138 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:29,199 business getting an mos as a as an artillery amo loader. 139 00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:32,200 Speaker 1: Right. You shouldn't be able. You should not be put. 140 00:08:31,959 --> 00:08:36,320 Speaker 2: In charge of putting the shells into the weaponry if 141 00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:39,480 you cannot lift the shell. This seems so freaking basic 142 00:08:39,519 --> 00:08:44,840 and common sense that only Democrats, apparently on the Senate 143 00:08:45,279 --> 00:08:49,960 Arm Services Committee can be this subtuse. Of course, here's 144 00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:53,840 the thing they are not. They just need their YouTube moment. 145 00:08:54,799 --> 00:08:57,120 They need to have a YouTube moment. They need to 146 00:08:57,120 --> 00:09:00,600 be able to cut about twenty seconds or so thirty 147 00:09:00,639 --> 00:09:03,840 seconds maybe a minute out of the the you know, 148 00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:09,480 the questioning, and then send it out to get the 149 00:09:09,879 --> 00:09:15,440 donations flowing. Same thing goes for the people that interrupted 150 00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:20,320 the opening statement by Pete Hegseth, which so far they 151 00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:23,840 have not had further interruptions. But these leftists get up 152 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:30,960 there and interrupt his opening his opening statement, and then 153 00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:36,480 they get removed and the chair of the committee, Like 154 00:09:36,519 --> 00:09:38,320 I would not have run it like that after the 155 00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:42,320 first one. I would have said, next one, anybody who 156 00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:46,600 does this, you're you're getting arrested, We're pressing charges. You're 157 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:50,279 getting arrested. And if it happens again for the second time, 158 00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:57,120 I'm clearing the room everybody out, especially if you are 159 00:09:57,120 --> 00:10:01,120 wearing pink, because you could see these people were they 160 00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:04,519 were all Code pinkers. They were all there dressed up 161 00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:09,200 in their silly little clown costumes, all dressed in pink 162 00:10:09,279 --> 00:10:11,960 with stupid looking glass. Actually that is on trend now. 163 00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:16,399 Apparently it's the big, big thick frames for the liberal women. 164 00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:19,960 Speaker 1: I don't know why they don't. I don't know why, but. 165 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:22,120 Speaker 2: Like that, so they're all and they got these silly 166 00:10:22,159 --> 00:10:25,720 hats on and stuff like I can tell who's going 167 00:10:25,759 --> 00:10:26,879 to disrupt this meeting. 168 00:10:27,399 --> 00:10:30,000 Speaker 1: It's them. It's the Code bink people. 169 00:10:29,879 --> 00:10:34,720 Speaker 2: That have been doing it for twenty years. Oh, Elizabeth 170 00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:36,879 Warren speaking of village idiots. 171 00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:39,120 Speaker 7: In this role. Now, I've been trying to get answers 172 00:10:39,159 --> 00:10:42,080 from you for quite some time on this. You haven't 173 00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:44,559 wanted to meet or to answer any of my questions. 174 00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:46,480 So we'll just have to do it here. 175 00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:47,639 Speaker 1: You can dive in. 176 00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:49,440 Speaker 7: Yeah, I want to pick up on some of the 177 00:10:49,519 --> 00:10:52,720 questions to ask by Senator Shahen and Jill Brandon Verona, 178 00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:53,879 and I just want to. 179 00:10:53,799 --> 00:10:55,720 Speaker 1: Make about the women in the military again, the. 180 00:10:55,639 --> 00:10:58,000 Speaker 7: Facts that I think are undisputed. I'm not going to 181 00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:00,919 talk about anonymous sources. I'm just going to quote you directly. 182 00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:04,399 We've got the video, we've got it in print. So 183 00:11:04,519 --> 00:11:07,720 going back to January twenty thirteen, you told a Fox 184 00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:11,320 News interviewer that women in the military simply couldn't measure 185 00:11:11,399 --> 00:11:14,080 up to men in the military, saying that allowing women 186 00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:17,200 to serve in combat roles would force the military to 187 00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:20,559 lower the bar. You picked up on that same theme 188 00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:23,559 in twenty fifteen making remarks on Fox News. 189 00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:24,279 Speaker 1: You see what they're doing. 190 00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:29,039 Speaker 2: They're conflating every single mos Because he talks also in 191 00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:31,279 his book about people he has served, women he has 192 00:11:31,279 --> 00:11:40,320 served with, who served bravely, courageously, we're awesome teammates, has 193 00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:44,559 no bad words about them. He's talking about specific things. 194 00:11:44,759 --> 00:11:47,440 And if you are like, if you meet the standard, 195 00:11:47,519 --> 00:11:51,519 you can do any job. If you can't meet the standard, 196 00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:54,639 you should not be doing the job, and the military 197 00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:58,240 should not be lowering the standards in order to juice 198 00:11:58,279 --> 00:12:01,639 the stats in order to get more people into those 199 00:12:01,759 --> 00:12:04,080 jobs with the lower standards. 200 00:12:04,879 --> 00:12:06,240 Speaker 1: That's what he's been talking about. 201 00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:10,799 Speaker 2: I think it's pretty clear, and maybe the Democrats do too, 202 00:12:10,799 --> 00:12:13,200 and that's why they're just conflating all of this stuff together. 203 00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:16,360 Here's a great idea. How about making an escape to 204 00:12:16,399 --> 00:12:19,879 a really special and secluded getaway in western North Carolina. 205 00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:22,200 Just a quick drive up the mountain and Cabins of 206 00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:26,559 Asheville is your connection.

Hello John, 226 00:13:30,039 --> 00:13:30,960 Welcome to the program. 227 00:13:32,759 --> 00:13:35,960 Speaker 5: Hello Pete. I wanted to just touch on the uh 228 00:13:36,879 --> 00:13:44,519 hegsths nomination. It's there. It's a Democrat playbook. The hagsth 229 00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:49,240 could have literally won a war by himself and they 230 00:13:49,279 --> 00:13:52,519 would still say that he would be worse than Hitler. 231 00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:57,759 And they're all going to come out and say every 232 00:13:57,879 --> 00:14:02,559 bad thing that that's can be said. The Republicans are 233 00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:06,039 going to be like, guys, we have to be nice, No, 234 00:14:06,159 --> 00:14:09,919 we don't. This is war on a different scale than 235 00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:13,000 what Pete's done. But this is war. We need to 236 00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:20,279 politically destroy anyone who is against making the military as 237 00:14:21,039 --> 00:14:23,240 lethal and as efficient as possible. 238 00:14:24,679 --> 00:14:27,519 Speaker 2: Well, that's been the message that heg Seth has been hammering. 239 00:14:27,639 --> 00:14:30,960 Republicans have not have not taken the position that you 240 00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:34,559 said you're worried that they're taking. They've all been even 241 00:14:34,639 --> 00:14:38,440 Jonie Ernst what they had a cordial exchange and she 242 00:14:38,639 --> 00:14:40,879 was one of the Republicans that they were saying she 243 00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:45,600 may not support him. So yeah, I mean, it looks 244 00:14:45,639 --> 00:14:48,840 like the Republicans are going They're not going to be 245 00:14:49,919 --> 00:14:52,279 abandoning hag Seth at least so far is what I 246 00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:52,759 could tell. 247 00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:55,639 Speaker 5: So they're not going to abandon him, but they're gonna 248 00:14:56,279 --> 00:14:58,720 but they're not going to come out and fight with 249 00:14:58,799 --> 00:15:03,919 the same uh fervor that the Democrats have. They're gonna 250 00:15:03,919 --> 00:15:04,200 be like. 251 00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:08,159 Speaker 2: Well, it's always easier to attack. I mean, when Republicans 252 00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:11,360 were in the minority, it's always easier to savage and 253 00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:14,080 to go after somebody, you know, easier to go on 254 00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:16,919 the offense than it is to defend, you know, somebody, 255 00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:19,240 because you got to just listen to the allegations and 256 00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:21,080 people hear them and they're like, oh my gosh, that's 257 00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:23,639 so bad. So it's easier to just throw the smears 258 00:15:23,679 --> 00:15:26,519 out there. And lord knows, there's been enough of them 259 00:15:26,519 --> 00:15:29,279 that have been reported against Pete hegseth. He's not done 260 00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:31,639 himself a lot of favors with some of the stories 261 00:15:31,679 --> 00:15:34,000 and some of the history. Now, not all of the 262 00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:37,679 stuff that has been reported has been true, so that's 263 00:15:37,679 --> 00:15:39,879 and he keeps saying that as well. Those are anonymous 264 00:15:39,879 --> 00:15:44,279 false allegations. He keeps saying it, and Democrats just don't 265 00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:46,320 hear him say it. So John, I appreciate the call. 266 00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:49,559 All right, I hope you had a happy holiday season. 267 00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:52,120 But tell me if something like this happened at your house. 268 00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:55,039 Your family and friends are gathered around, maybe y'all are 269 00:15:55,039 --> 00:15:58,480 in the living room and you're laughing, swapping stories, reminiscing, 270 00:15:58,519 --> 00:16:02,440 and then somebody says, hey, did remember those old VHS tapes? 271 00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:05,080 Did you ever get them transferred? And then the room 272 00:16:05,159 --> 00:16:08,960 gets all quiet. All eyes are on Dad, who says, oh, 273 00:16:09,039 --> 00:16:11,080 you know, well, I've been meaning to but I just 274 00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:14,080 having gotten around to it.

And upon 291 00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:12,400 resumption of playing, will it skip ahead to the live 292 00:17:12,519 --> 00:17:15,039 portion or will it play the part that I paused? 293 00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:22,079 Which in this case is Elizabeth Warren, us Senator from Massachusetts, 294 00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:29,160 famous fake Indian, and she's asking hag Seth here about 295 00:17:29,759 --> 00:17:34,200 his call for generals to not go to work for 296 00:17:34,680 --> 00:17:38,720 defense industry companies for ten years after retirement. 297 00:17:38,759 --> 00:17:42,880 Speaker 7: Sir Hagstaff. You have written after they retire, general should 298 00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:46,359 be banned from working for the defense industry for ten years. 299 00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:49,720 You and I agree on the corrosive effects of the 300 00:17:49,759 --> 00:17:54,240 revolving door between the Pentagon and defense contractors. It's something 301 00:17:54,279 --> 00:17:56,039 I would have liked to talk with you about if 302 00:17:56,039 --> 00:17:59,079 you'd come and been willing to visit with me. But 303 00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:01,200 the question I have for you on this is will 304 00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:04,200 you put your money where your mouth is and agree 305 00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:07,079 that when you leave this job you will not work 306 00:18:07,079 --> 00:18:08,920 for the defense industry for ten years? 307 00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:10,519 Speaker 5: Senator. 308 00:18:10,519 --> 00:18:13,079 Speaker 3: It's not even a question I've thought about because it's 309 00:18:13,119 --> 00:18:17,440 not right now. It's not one my motivation for this job. 310 00:18:17,519 --> 00:18:22,640 Speaker 7: I understand yes, time is short. I just need a 311 00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:23,240 yes or no. 312 00:18:23,519 --> 00:18:25,559 Speaker 3: I would consult with the President about what the policy. 313 00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:31,920 Speaker 7: Other words, you're quite sure that every general who serves 314 00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:35,799 should not go directly into the defense industry for ten years. 315 00:18:36,279 --> 00:18:38,319 You're not willing to make that same pledge. 316 00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:43,720 Speaker 3: I'm not a general, Senator, You'll. 317 00:18:43,559 --> 00:18:47,240 Speaker 7: Be the one. Let us just be clear in charge 318 00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:51,440 of the generals. So you're saying sauce for the goose, 319 00:18:51,559 --> 00:18:53,559 but certainly not sauce for the candor. 320 00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:56,000 Speaker 3: I would want to see what the policy that you. 321 00:18:56,759 --> 00:19:00,559 Speaker 5: Thank you, Senator Warren, Senator Tuberville, thank you. 322 00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:02,480 Speaker 8: Miss chairman, and thanks for your hard work and your 323 00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:05,920 committee's hard work.

Tim Young, Who's a comedian. You can 335 00:19:43,079 --> 00:19:48,599 find him. I think he does a podcast. Uh, but 336 00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:49,960 I don't see anyway Tim Young. 337 00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:52,119 Speaker 2: You could He does a podcast and you can find 338 00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:54,880 him on Twitter or x AT. 339 00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:58,440 Speaker 1: Tim runs his mouth. That's his name, Tim runs his mouth. 340 00:19:58,640 --> 00:19:59,279 So Tim Young. 341 00:19:59,599 --> 00:20:02,480 Speaker 2: He points out that Elizabeth Warren questions whether or not 342 00:20:02,599 --> 00:20:06,640 Pete Hegseth would cash in on the Secretary of Defense job. 343 00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:10,720 Keep in mind she lied about being a Native American 344 00:20:10,839 --> 00:20:13,920 to cash in, and just the other day she tweeted 345 00:20:14,079 --> 00:20:18,640 an act Blue link pretending it was a charity for 346 00:20:18,799 --> 00:20:23,799 victims of the Los Angeles wildfires. This is what makes 347 00:20:23,839 --> 00:20:31,680 this whole thing so farcical. They are obviously coordinating. Democrats 348 00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:35,960 are using their female senators on the committee to ask 349 00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:38,640 about the women in combat roles. Just you know, they 350 00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:40,640 keep asking the same questions over and over and over 351 00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:45,480 again that Staffords obviously wrote and coordinated. And then they've 352 00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:52,039 got Tim Kaine and the male senators asking the questions 353 00:20:52,079 --> 00:20:59,119 about the allegations of sexual abuse. Somebody, I guess it 354 00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:02,720 was a It was Mazie Herono who asked about the NDA. 355 00:21:02,839 --> 00:21:06,000 Has he ever she started doing this I think during 356 00:21:06,039 --> 00:21:11,000 the Britt Kavanaugh hearings. So she says she always asks 357 00:21:11,039 --> 00:21:14,720 everybody who comes before for before the committee for a 358 00:21:14,759 --> 00:21:18,079 confirmation hearing, she always asks them, have you ever been 359 00:21:18,119 --> 00:21:24,359 accused of you know, being told no base rape, okay, 360 00:21:24,519 --> 00:21:27,279 sexual assault? Has anybody ever accused you of this? Or 361 00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:29,240 have you ever done this sort of thing? And haig 362 00:21:29,319 --> 00:21:31,440 Seth says no, And then she asked, have you ever 363 00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:37,799 had anybody sign an NDA to cover it up? And 364 00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:44,920 once again, like those types of agreements, it's like, surely 365 00:21:45,039 --> 00:21:51,599 she knows, even somebody as shallow as Herono knows that 366 00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:56,200 people in powerful positions that have money or at least 367 00:21:56,279 --> 00:22:00,359 it's perceived that they have money, get accused of things 368 00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:05,240 that they did not do, and then they get basically extorted. 369 00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:11,039 That's what heg Seth's lawyer said. Heg Seth's lawyer says 370 00:22:11,079 --> 00:22:16,039 that this was basically extortion. That he was on Fox News. 371 00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:19,799 He has money because he's on Fox and so you 372 00:22:19,839 --> 00:22:23,599 accuse him of something, and then you sue him, or 373 00:22:23,640 --> 00:22:26,079 you say I'm going to go public or something. They 374 00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:30,480 then write a check, you sign the non disclosure agreement, 375 00:22:31,319 --> 00:22:33,920 and then they're not allowed to talk about it. They 376 00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:37,039 can't make any more accusations against you in public, they 377 00:22:37,079 --> 00:22:43,680 can't continue to lob these allegations. That's what you're paying for. 378 00:22:43,960 --> 00:22:48,079 And the people who make false allegations know this. That's 379 00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:51,640 why they do it. It's for the money when it's 380 00:22:51,680 --> 00:22:54,279 not true. Right, When people make these types of false 381 00:22:54,279 --> 00:23:01,359 allegations against powerful, prominent, rich people, it is for the money, 382 00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:06,519 that's the point. And it's just cheaper and easier to 383 00:23:06,559 --> 00:23:11,680 pay them a check and have them go away. I 384 00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:15,480 don't like it. I don't know if I mean, well, 385 00:23:15,519 --> 00:23:17,759 I'm not rich, but then again people may think I 386 00:23:17,799 --> 00:23:20,079 am because I'm on the radio, which tells me they 387 00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:27,920 know nothing. About radio's but the amount of time and 388 00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:31,640 turmoil it would take and the expense. Right, So you 389 00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:35,400 can either spend one hundred two hundred thousand dollars in 390 00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:39,680 legal bills, it take five years to litigate, get dragged 391 00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:44,880 through the courts, drag through the media, or you write 392 00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:48,160 them a check for twenty thousand dollars. I don't know 393 00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:51,279 what the going rate for hush money is. Maybe we 394 00:23:51,319 --> 00:23:55,599 could ask Stormy Daniels's. But you pay the money and 395 00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:58,400 they go away, and then you move on with your life. 396 00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:00,640 You keep going, and you're not happy about it. I 397 00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:02,640 don't like the fact that I had to write the check, 398 00:24:02,799 --> 00:24:08,359 but it's a cheaper alternative in every category except the one, 399 00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:12,039 which is where you have to pay for something you 400 00:24:12,079 --> 00:24:15,880 didn't do. But when you talk to people who are 401 00:24:16,079 --> 00:24:22,039 in that level of wealth, in that income bracket, they 402 00:24:22,680 --> 00:24:25,799 they know that this is essentially a cost of not 403 00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:30,400 doing business. It's a cost of living, just like a 404 00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:32,559 security detail when you become famous. 405 00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:35,119 Speaker 1: It's one of the things that you have to pay for. 406 00:24:37,079 --> 00:24:39,599 And again, I don't like it, but that's what he's saying. 407 00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:42,000 Speaker 2: And for some reason Democrats don't understand it, which is 408 00:24:42,039 --> 00:24:44,839 weird because I know there's a whole boatload of members 409 00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:45,839 of Congress. 410 00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:48,079 Speaker 1: That had to pay out these NDAs too. HEGs like. 411 00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:49,599 Speaker 2: If I'm up there, I'd be like, well, wy don't 412 00:24:49,599 --> 00:24:51,720 you guys release the list of all the NDAs. Y'all 413 00:24:51,759 --> 00:24:56,440 have had people sign for you in exchange for the payoffs, right, 414 00:24:56,599 --> 00:24:59,480 haven't members of Congress been extorted in this same way 415 00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:02,559 or all guilty too? Why don't you release the list 416 00:25:02,599 --> 00:25:03,160 of all of them? 417 00:25:03,519 --> 00:25:03,640 Speaker 7: All? 418 00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:05,480 Speaker 2: Right? If you're listening to this show, you know I 419 00:25:05,519 --> 00:25:07,400 try to keep up with all sorts of current events, 420 00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:09,480 and I know you do too, And you've probably heard 421 00:25:09,519 --> 00:25:13,599 me say get your news from multiple sources. Why well, 422 00:25:13,599 --> 00:25:16,319 because it's how you detect media bias, which is why 423 00:25:16,359 --> 00:25:19,559 I've been so impressed with ground News.

All right back to the Senate hearing. This 441 00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:17,519 is now Tammy Duckworth. So, first off, as I mentioned earlier, 442 00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:23,920 Democratic senators at the hearing have coordinated their questioning, and 443 00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:29,160 now she's going to use that coordination to attack Pete. 444 00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:32,319 Speaker 1: Hegseth. The Secretary of Defense nominae you it's a chairman. 445 00:26:33,119 --> 00:26:35,519 Speaker 5: Center Duckworth, You're recognized. 446 00:26:35,119 --> 00:26:37,720 Speaker 6: Thank you, miss a chairman. And also Secatary Mattis had 447 00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:41,720 to have this waiver as well, with Zach said, this 448 00:26:41,759 --> 00:26:44,920 hearing is about whether you are qualified to be Secretary 449 00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:47,519 of Defense, and one of the qualifications to answer my 450 00:26:47,599 --> 00:26:50,640 colleagues's question is to actually win the votes of every 451 00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:52,759 member of this committee and to be confirmed by the 452 00:26:52,839 --> 00:26:53,680 United States Senate. 453 00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:56,279 Speaker 1: Okay, that's not true. That's a lie. 454 00:26:57,440 --> 00:26:59,759 Speaker 2: A nominee does not need to win the support of 455 00:26:59,839 --> 00:27:04,880 every member of this committee. That's not true. They need 456 00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:07,319 to be confirmed by the Senate. But that also does 457 00:27:07,359 --> 00:27:11,480 not require a unanimous vote, just needs a majority. 458 00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:12,119 Speaker 1: That's it. 459 00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:15,440 Speaker 6: And you need to convince us that you're worthy of 460 00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:17,400 that vote, because the people of the state of Illinois 461 00:27:17,519 --> 00:27:19,720 voted for me to be their senator so that I 462 00:27:19,759 --> 00:27:22,519 could cast that vote when it comes to picking who 463 00:27:22,559 --> 00:27:24,839 is going to be the next Secretary of Defense. 464 00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:30,880 Speaker 2: Also not true, right, he doesn't need to convince you. 465 00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:35,759 He doesn't need to convince all the Democrats, who, by 466 00:27:35,759 --> 00:27:38,960 the way, have a long history of not supporting the 467 00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:42,519 nominees of Republican presidents during these hearings. Republicans, on the 468 00:27:42,559 --> 00:27:44,720 other hand, do But here we go. 469 00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:47,200 Speaker 6: This hearing now seems to be a hearing about whether 470 00:27:47,279 --> 00:27:50,559 or not women are qualified to serve in combat and 471 00:27:50,599 --> 00:27:52,799 not about whether or not you are qualified to be 472 00:27:52,839 --> 00:27:53,720 Secretive of Defense. 473 00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:58,119 Speaker 2: The reason why that the hearing has become that is 474 00:27:58,200 --> 00:28:02,799 because of your fellow Democrats who keep asking about this topic, 475 00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:08,119 and now she's using their focus. The Democrats focus on 476 00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:12,799 this issue as if he has made this the focus 477 00:28:12,799 --> 00:28:16,480 of the hearing. I suspect he would rather it not 478 00:28:16,559 --> 00:28:17,240 be the focus. 479 00:28:18,839 --> 00:28:20,599 Speaker 6: And let me just say that the American people need 480 00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:23,039 a sec deaf who's ready to lead on day one. 481 00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:24,480 Speaker 2: You are not that person. 482 00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:28,400 Speaker 6: Our adversary is watched closely during times of transition, and 483 00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:31,440 any sense that the Department of this keeps us safe, 484 00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:33,559 it's being strayed by someone who's wholly unprepared for the 485 00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:37,000 job puts America at risk, and I am not willing 486 00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:39,559 to do that. With that in mind, mister heck Seth, 487 00:28:39,559 --> 00:28:41,079 I want you to try to explain to the American 488 00:28:41,079 --> 00:28:45,200 people this committee who have to vote for you, and 489 00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:47,400 to our troops are deployed around the world, why you 490 00:28:47,559 --> 00:28:50,359 are qualified to lead the Department of Defense. We already 491 00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:52,160 know that you've only led are the largest of two 492 00:28:52,240 --> 00:28:56,319 hundred person organization. We already know that you so badly 493 00:28:56,400 --> 00:28:59,640 mangled a budget that after you left they had to 494 00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:03,200 bring in a forensic accountant to figure out what went wrong, 495 00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:06,200 and that the largest budget you ever managed was about 496 00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:10,440 eighteen billion dollars. You know that is about fifty one thousand, 497 00:29:10,519 --> 00:29:14,759 five hundred and sixty times fewer lower than the Department 498 00:29:14,799 --> 00:29:17,319 of Defense budget of eight hundred and twenty five billion dollars. 499 00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:19,039 Speaker 1: Okay, I don't even know if she knows what she 500 00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:19,680 just said there. 501 00:29:20,599 --> 00:29:24,640 Speaker 6: Sixteen million dollars is fifty one thousand, five and sixty 502 00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:29,039 eight times smaller than the defense budget.
