Walz’s Stolen Valor Becomes Major Issue as KAMALA GOES INTO HIDING! · The Ben Ferguson Podcast

Speaker 1: The Harris campaign now has a real pr nightmare on
0:05
Speaker 1: their hands, and that is the Harris campaign is having
0:08
Speaker 1: to figure out how to scrub the VP choice Waltz
0:13
Speaker 1: and his stolen Valor Army rank and record. He is
0:18
Speaker 1: apparently a habitual liar when it comes to his service
0:22
Speaker 1: in the military. Now there's some there saying, hey, don't
0:25
Speaker 1: touch this. The guy was in the military, he was
0:27
Speaker 1: in the reserve for twenty plus years. So what did
0:30
Speaker 1: he lied about his rank? So what that he lied
0:33
Speaker 1: about his service a little bit, it's not that big
0:36
Speaker 1: of a deal. Let me state this very clearly. It
0:40
Speaker 1: is a big deal. It is a big deal to
0:43
Speaker 1: the men and women who have given the ultimate sacrifice
0:45
Speaker 1: in this country, and men and women that have served
0:48
Speaker 1: this country, and family members that have loved ones that
0:50
Speaker 1: have served this country. You don't lie about being a
0:53
Speaker 1: doctor if you're not a doctor. Okay, you don't lie
0:56
Speaker 1: about being a pilot if you're not a pilot, and
0:59
Speaker 1: you're sure as hell, don't lie about serving your country
1:04
Speaker 1: and seeing combat when you actually didn't see combat.
1:11
Speaker 2: These are just.
1:12
Speaker 1: Some of the things that like, I mean, you don't
1:13
Speaker 1: want a doctor to be like I'm a doctor, and
1:15
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, they you know, they're not really one.
1:17
Speaker 1: They never went to medical school, Like that's a big deal. Well,
1:20
Speaker 1: it's a big deal when you say that you served
1:23
Speaker 1: in combat and you actually didn't, and the people around
1:27
Speaker 1: you that served in the military and did see combat,
1:31
Speaker 1: it pisses them off, as it should. But what's happening
1:35
Speaker 1: here is the media is trying to do everything they
1:38
Speaker 1: can to basically look the other way. They're doing everything
1:42
Speaker 1: that they can to try to just make this whole
1:46
Speaker 1: problem go away, which is that this guy has been
1:50
Speaker 1: lying about his service for as long as he's been
1:54
Speaker 1: in politics, and that's been quite some time. The Washington
1:58
Speaker 1: Free Beacon is reporting out this hour that Tim Walts
2:01
Speaker 1: falsely claimed he served in Afghanistan. A local vet, by
2:06
Speaker 1: the way, called him out. His office did nothing about
2:09
Speaker 1: that at the time. The Washington Free Beacon also finding
2:13
Speaker 1: out that Tim walk Tim Waltz promoted media misrepresentations of
2:19
Speaker 1: his military service back in two thousand and six when
2:22
Speaker 1: he was running for office. This includes the Wall Street Journal.
2:28
Speaker 1: Now I'm going to tell you that story, and I
2:29
Speaker 1: hope that all of you will share this important information
2:32
Speaker 1: about Waltz because we're gonna keep diving into it, into
2:36
Speaker 1: this record and letting you know just what a pathological
2:39
Speaker 1: liar he is about his service in the military. Let
2:43
Speaker 1: me also tell you real quick about Patriot Mobile. And
2:46
Speaker 1: if you are like me and you are tired and
2:49
Speaker 1: frustrated with woke companies taking your money and then fighting
2:53
Speaker 1: against your family values, you've got to switch to Patriot
2:56
Speaker 1: Mobile because when you do, about five percent of your
2:59
Speaker 1: bill every month actually goes back to support conservative values
3:03
Speaker 1: at no extra cost to you. That's actually why Patriot
3:06
Speaker 1: Mobiles started over a decade ago. Patriot Mobile saw what
3:09
Speaker 1: Big Mobile was doing when they were paying their bills,
3:12
Speaker 1: and what they did was they gave their money to
3:14
Speaker 1: hardcore leftist organizations, candidates, causes and organizations that are radical,
3:20
Speaker 1: for example, like giving your money to people that advocate
3:24
Speaker 1: for abortions and even pay for them. Well, that's why
3:28
Speaker 1: I'm proud to partner with Patriot Mobile, because when you're
3:31
Speaker 1: with them, you're on the front lines, but you're fighting
3:33
Speaker 1: for your values. You're standing up and fighting for your
3:36
Speaker 1: First and Second Amendment rights, you're fighting for the sanctity
3:39
Speaker 1: of life, and you're supporting our military, our veterans are
3:43
Speaker 1: wounded warriors and our first responders.
3:46
Speaker 2: They're the heroes.
3:47
Speaker 1: Well, if you want to take a stand, you can
3:49
Speaker 1: do it right now by switching to Patriot Mobile today.
3:52
Speaker 1: You're going to get the same nationwide coverage that you're

Speaker 1: to two Patriot for your free month of service today.
4:42
Speaker 1: Now let me go back to Waltz in this reporting.
4:46
Speaker 1: All right, so you understand just how much of a
4:48
Speaker 1: liar this guy is. A March twentieth, two thousand and
4:52
Speaker 1: six Wall Street Journal report included in the kit that
4:57
Speaker 1: his campaign was putting out. It's stay that Walt's quote
5:00
Speaker 1: served overseas during the early war in Afghanistan. His team
5:06
Speaker 1: and his campaign knew that was a lie, but they
5:08
Speaker 1: took that lie and they ran with it, because if
5:11
Speaker 1: you want a lie to the American people, you get
5:13
Speaker 1: the media to do it on your behalf. Waltz told
5:16
Speaker 1: the paper that the Iraq war is quote, not something
5:20
Speaker 1: that is a political game. Yet that's exactly what he
5:23
Speaker 1: used it for. Another from January and February of six,
5:27
Speaker 1: the addition of The Atlantic, describes Waltz as quote, a
5:30
Speaker 1: command sergeant major who just returned from fighting the war
5:35
Speaker 1: on terrorism. The piece goes on to characterize Waltz as
5:40
Speaker 1: one of the number of veterans from the wars in
5:43
Speaker 1: Afghanistan Iraq who were running for Congress that year. Again,
5:48
Speaker 1: that is also a lie. Listen to how Jesse Waters
5:52
Speaker 1: put it on Fox.
5:55
Speaker 3: Prime Time's been investigating Tim Walls's military record and it's
5:58
Speaker 3: worse than you thought. And now the Kamala campaign's covering it.
6:02
Speaker 4: Up.
6:03
Speaker 3: Tonight, we're finding out that when Walls was campaigning for Congress,
6:06
Speaker 3: he put out a press release he told voters that
6:09
Speaker 3: he had a duty to serve in Iraq if called on,
6:13
Speaker 3: But when that call came, he retired, left his battalion
6:16
Speaker 3: hanging in the vicious Midiest Desert. So while Walls was
6:19
Speaker 3: heading to Washington, his unit was in Iraq being bombed
6:22
Speaker 3: by insurgents. The soldiers were away from their families for
6:25
Speaker 3: like two years. And when he campaigned for Congress and
6:28
Speaker 3: later governor, he misrepresented what rank he retired at.
6:32
Speaker 5: I'm a retired command sergeant major and retired sergeant major
6:35
Speaker 5: in the Army and the Army National Guard. I'm a
6:37
Speaker 5: school teacher. I'm a retired sergeant major.
6:40
Speaker 3: Walls last rank was a command sergeant major, but because
6:43
Speaker 3: he left before he finished the required training, his rank
6:46
Speaker 3: was reduced when he retired. The Harris campaign was pushing
6:49
Speaker 3: that rank lie until today they just quietly scrubbed it
6:54
Speaker 3: from their website.
6:55
Speaker 4: Tonight.
6:55
Speaker 3: We're also finding out Walls likes to wear US Army
6:58
Speaker 3: Special Forces caps, but he never actually served in the
7:01
Speaker 3: Special Forces. Wolves was in the National Guard, So why
7:05
Speaker 3: is he wearing the hat. Does he want you to
7:07
Speaker 3: think he's Special Forces? Seems like it. He never went
7:11
Speaker 3: to the Mid East, but when someone wrote a book
7:13
Speaker 3: and claned he served in Afghanistan, he endorsed it. And
7:17
Speaker 3: he tells crowds he carried weapons in war. Once again,
7:20
Speaker 3: not true. Walls was never in the battlefield. He was
7:23
Speaker 3: deployed to Italy, but there hasn't been action there since
7:26
Speaker 3: World War Two. Here's the command sergeant who replaced Walls.
7:30
Speaker 6: Listen, if he thinks Italy was a combat zone or
7:34
Speaker 6: a war zone and he was carrying that in war,
7:38
Speaker 6: he's delusional. I mean that was all said, just like
7:42
Speaker 6: him saying he was a command sergeant major, just another
7:45
Speaker 6: way to embellish his career beyond what it was, stolen
7:49
Speaker 6: valor for the people that actually were in war. And
7:52
Speaker 6: he's the actor.
7:52
Speaker 3: Only once Walls was elected after campaigning on phony military credentials,
7:57
Speaker 3: he slapped their soldiers.
7:58
Speaker 2: In the face.
8:00
Speaker 3: Again. You ready, he voted against a bill that expanded veterans'
8:04
Speaker 3: access to doctors because he wanted to hurt Trump.
8:08
Speaker 1: Well, I want you to just think about this. The
8:12
Speaker 1: Harris campaign has had has been forced to scrub Waltz's
8:16
Speaker 1: Army rank lie off their own website. The guy likes
8:21
Speaker 1: where US Army Special Forces caps, but next never actually
8:25
Speaker 1: served in the Special Forces. The guy says he saw
8:29
Speaker 1: combat when in fact he didn't see combat at all.
8:34
Speaker 1: You take all this into consideration, and you put in perspective,
8:39
Speaker 1: you understand now why this is a real problem for
8:43
Speaker 1: the Harris campaign. They've got to answer questions now about
8:48
Speaker 1: stolen valor. House Republicans, by the way, coming out also
8:55
Speaker 1: talking about this. Many Republican veterans who are either in
8:59
Speaker 1: the House representatives that are running for the House are
9:02
Speaker 1: blasting the Vice president of candidate Amidstowen vor accusations. Waltz,
9:09
Speaker 1: who's quote served twenty four years in the National Guard,
9:12
Speaker 1: including the Minister of the National Guards first Battalion one
9:15
Speaker 1: twenty fifth Field Artillery, retired shortly before his unit went
9:19
Speaker 1: to Iraq. By the way, he knew they were going
9:23
Speaker 1: to be shipped off to Iraq right before he quit.
9:27
Speaker 1: He did not see combat yet. In a video shared
9:30
Speaker 1: by the Harris Waltz campaign, he said that he carried
9:33
Speaker 1: weapons in war.
9:37
Speaker 5: Polk wol Cup, like many of you did five weeks ago,
9:39
Speaker 5: and Dad said, Dad, you're the only person I know
9:41
Speaker 5: who's an elected office. You need to stop what's happening
9:43
Speaker 5: with this. I'll take my kick in the butt for
9:45
Speaker 5: the NRA. I spent twenty five years in the army,
9:47
Speaker 5: and I hunt and I gave the money back, and
9:49
Speaker 5: I'll tell you what I have been doing. I've been
9:51
Speaker 5: voting for common sense legislation that protects a second Amendment.
9:54
Speaker 5: But we can do background checks, we can do CDC research,
9:56
Speaker 5: we can make sure we don't have reciprocal carry among states,
9:59
Speaker 5: and we can make make sure that those weapons of
10:01
Speaker 5: war that I carried in war is the only place
10:03
Speaker 5: where those weapons were at.
10:05
Speaker 1: Those weapons of war that I carried in war, it
10:09
Speaker 1: never happened, but didn't sound great on the campaign trail.
10:13
Speaker 1: He's also facing harsh criticism from Senator Tom Cotton and
10:17
Speaker 1: Republican Vice PRESIDENTI nomine JD. Vance for not going to
10:20
Speaker 1: Rack with his battalion. Cotton, a veteran who did two
10:24
Speaker 1: combat tours in the US Army, says Waltz let his
10:27
Speaker 1: troops go to war interact without him. The sentiments echoed
10:31
Speaker 1: those of two Army commands sergeant majors, who wrote that
10:35
Speaker 1: when Waltz retired on May the sixteenth, twenty and five,
10:38
Speaker 1: he left the one twenty fifth air Field Artillery Battalion
10:43
Speaker 1: and its soldiers hanging without its senior non commissioned officer
10:49
Speaker 1: as a battalion prepared for war. That in a letter
10:53
Speaker 1: published in the West Central Tribune and back in twenty eighteen, Well,
10:58
Speaker 1: it suddenly filed to run for Congress in February of
11:01
Speaker 1: five before the unit was notified a potential deployment in
11:06
Speaker 1: March of the same year. However, the alert came two
11:10
Speaker 1: months before his retirement. Yeah, he knew he was going
11:15
Speaker 1: to leave and desert his battalion. Waltz bio also implied
11:19
Speaker 1: he retired at the rank of E nine when he
11:22
Speaker 1: actually retired as an E eight. However, he did serve
11:26
Speaker 1: as an E nime for a time before leaving as
11:28
Speaker 1: a Master sergeant E eight. But hey, a great story.
11:33
Speaker 1: Why let the truth get in the way of telling
11:35
Speaker 1: your incredible valor that you have and how you served
11:38
Speaker 1: on the battlefield in Iraq. Representative Jim Banks, an Afghanistan veteran,
11:43
Speaker 1: ripped Waltz on Wednesday as a fraud and remarked it
11:47
Speaker 1: as crazy. The Kamwa would pick a running mate who
11:50
Speaker 1: lied about his military service. Yet she did it for
11:55
Speaker 1: a reason because he is a radical leftist. A radical leftist.
12:00
Speaker 1: It hates law abiding citizens the Second Amendment, and you're
12:04
Speaker 1: right by the way to own a gun. Now, look
12:08
Speaker 1: the Karras campaign. They've obviously got problems with Waltz and
12:12
Speaker 1: the rollout of him has not gone smoothly. The honeymoon
12:17
Speaker 1: is certainly over. She's got her own problems outside of
12:21
Speaker 1: his stolen valor issues. And that is the fact that
12:24
Speaker 1: she's totally and completely in hiding. Now, when I say
12:27
Speaker 1: she's in hiding, let me explain just how bad it
12:30
Speaker 1: is real quick. Kamala Harris has quote pledge to schedule
12:35
Speaker 1: an interview before the end of the month after speaking
12:37
Speaker 1: with her team. It's unclear if the interview will take
12:40
Speaker 1: place in the last three weeks of August or whether
12:42
Speaker 1: the interview scheduling will take place before August ends. Now,
12:47
Speaker 1: this is weird because when you're running for president, you
12:50
Speaker 1: want a lot of press. Harris has not given an
12:54
Speaker 1: unscripted press conference since she joined the presidential race eighteen
12:58
Speaker 1: days ago, and is avoiding the press apparently until possibly
13:03
Speaker 1: Labor Day, which is twenty four days from now. That
13:07
Speaker 1: is what a longtime Harris ally told Politico. But I've
13:11
Speaker 1: talked to my team. I wanted us to get an
13:14
Speaker 1: interview schedule before the end of the month, she said
13:16
Speaker 1: in Michigan when asked when she would sit down for
13:19
Speaker 1: her first interview since literally entering the presidential race.
13:24
Speaker 6: Matter doesn't invent a lot of questions about when you're
13:26
Speaker 6: gonna sit down for your interviewsin.
13:29
Speaker 4: Thing that I'm in the needs my team. I want
13:32
Speaker 4: us to get an interview.
13:35
Speaker 1: I talk to my team. I want to get an
13:38
Speaker 1: interview done. It is not normal to not do interviews
13:43
Speaker 1: when you run for president of the United States of
13:45
Speaker 1: America unless you have something to hide. Now, earlier, Senator
13:52
Speaker 1: Cruise and I did a pretty deep political dive into
13:55
Speaker 1: this issue. Are they trying to hide her on purpose?
14:00
Speaker 1: I think the answer is clearly yes. So why are
14:03
Speaker 1: they doing it? And is it because they don't trust
14:05
Speaker 1: her as a candidate. Take a listen to Senator Cruz
14:10
Speaker 1: and I's conversation on that. Senator there was two interesting
14:14
Speaker 1: headlines that really I think encompass what's happening with harris
14:18
Speaker 1: campaign and hiding her. One of them was Harris quote
14:23
Speaker 1: refuses to comment on Trump's debate challenge. Then she refused
14:29
Speaker 1: to comment about doing an interview. Then the campaign quote
14:33
Speaker 1: declined requests for comment about why Harris declines requests for
14:37
Speaker 1: comment on the issues of the campaign. That is a
14:41
Speaker 1: headline you cannot.
14:42
Speaker 2: Make up well.
14:44
Speaker 4: And this is going to be their strategy for the
14:46
Speaker 4: next eighty eight days. And listen, if you're a Democratic,
14:50
Speaker 4: stand why this is attractive. To be honest, this was
14:53
Speaker 4: their strategy in the last election. Joe Biden four years
14:57
Speaker 4: ago already had severe mental diminution. He was not mentally
15:02
Speaker 4: up to the campaign. And what did they do? They
15:05
Speaker 4: literally locked him in the basement. I don't know if
15:06
Speaker 4: the White House has a basement, but if they have,
15:09
Speaker 4: it wouldn't surprise me if they had him chained to
15:11
Speaker 4: a wall. I mean, he was not allowed out, he
15:13
Speaker 4: was not allowed in camera site, he was not allowed
15:15
Speaker 4: to speak to a microphone. And I think they put
15:17
Speaker 4: Kamala in the same cell. And and it's you know,
15:21
Speaker 4: from the Democrats perspective, if your candidate is really good,
15:26
Speaker 4: if your candidate is impressive, if your candidate is charming,
15:29
Speaker 4: if your candidate has powerful and profound things to say,
15:33
Speaker 4: then you want to get your candidate out there. You
15:35
Speaker 4: want to inspire people, You want to show this is
15:38
Speaker 4: our candidate's vision for America. So there's a problem for
15:43
Speaker 4: Kamala Harrison, for Democrats, their vision for America, it's terrible,
15:48
Speaker 4: it is radical, it is extreme. Kamala's vision for America
15:52
Speaker 4: is open borders for four more years. Kamala's vision for
15:55
Speaker 4: America's trillions more in spending, trillions more in debt and
15:58
Speaker 4: as a result, in FLA skyrocketing. Kamala's vision for America
16:03
Speaker 4: is releasing violent criminals from jail. Kamala's vision for America
16:08
Speaker 4: is undermining our friends and allies, especially the state of Israel.
16:12
Speaker 4: Kamala's vision for America is continuing to show weakness and
16:16
Speaker 4: appeasement to our enemies, to Hamas, to Hesbla, to Iran,
16:20
Speaker 4: to Venezuela, to North Korea, to China, to rush at
16:23
Speaker 4: all of them. And if you're thinking about it, that's
16:26
Speaker 4: not a very attractive campaign to actually try to win
16:29
Speaker 4: in November. So they don't want to do any of that.
16:31
Speaker 4: What they want to do instead scripts that are sort
16:35
Speaker 4: of vaguely affirming. Remember, look, Obama ran on a campaign
16:38
Speaker 4: of hope and change, they're trying to have Kamala 'ron
16:41
Speaker 4: on a similar campaign open change, hope and change. Don't
16:43
Speaker 4: ask what the hope is. Don't ask what the change is.
16:46
Speaker 4: You know, in her speech that's written for it, starting
16:49
Speaker 4: to say, she's starting to say I'm going to take
16:51
Speaker 4: on the big corporations and drive down inflation. I never
16:54
Speaker 4: mind that she is part of the incumbent administration. She
17:00
Speaker 4: and Joe Biden are the sitting Vice president and President
17:03
Speaker 4: of the United States. So if there's some magic wand
17:06
Speaker 4: that the president has, presumably she and Joe would be
17:09
Speaker 4: waving it. It's empty rhetoric. But I got to tell you, Ben,
17:15
Speaker 4: it is dangerous because I think from the press's perspective,
17:19
Speaker 4: there's a very real possibility not only are they going
17:23
Speaker 4: to let her get away with it, they're going to
17:24
Speaker 4: be actively complicit because basically what they're doing it is
17:28
Speaker 4: there punting to the press and saying, you guys got this,
17:33
Speaker 4: We got eighty eight days, tell the message every day,
17:37
Speaker 4: and to be honest, at least a couple of weeks
17:40
Speaker 4: into it, it's working. From from Commal's perspective, things are
17:44
Speaker 4: going much much better than they were just a couple
17:48
Speaker 4: of weeks ago, and Ben, let's also pause and think
17:52
Speaker 4: what a four weeks we've had in politics. In four
17:55
Speaker 4: weeks in politics, we've seen President Trump shot at and
18:01
Speaker 4: nearly assassinated. We've seen Joe Biden, the sitting president, unceremoniously
18:07
Speaker 4: removed from the presidential ballot. We've seen Donald Trump pick
18:11
Speaker 4: his vice presidential nominee. We've seen Kamala Harris pick her
18:15
Speaker 4: vice presidential nominee. That's all happened in four weeks. And
18:17
Speaker 4: I got to say, the entire race has been turned
18:20
Speaker 4: topsy turvy, and now they want to keep Kamala muzzled
18:25
Speaker 4: and hidden at all times.
18:27
Speaker 1: You know, you look at the headline and this one
18:29
Speaker 1: is one of those that just it's a head scratcher.
18:32
Speaker 2: Quote.
18:32
Speaker 1: Kamala Harris vows to schedule an interview before the end
18:35
Speaker 1: of the month. Traditionally, Senator, when you're running for office,
18:40
Speaker 1: especially when you're running for the presidency, you want to
18:43
Speaker 1: do interviews. You want to be seen. You want people
18:47
Speaker 1: to be listening to your messaging, your agenda, your plan right,
18:53
Speaker 1: your goals and aspirations for the country. That's part of campaigning.
18:58
Speaker 1: But when you walk into this thing and you're Harris,
19:01
Speaker 1: and you are a radical, You're a socialist, communist, Marxist,
19:04
Speaker 1: and maybe your agenda isn't that powable to the American people?
19:07
Speaker 2: Is that part of the strategy?
19:09
Speaker 7: Now?
19:09
Speaker 1: Why they're like, okay, look, we can hide her and
19:12
Speaker 1: we don't do the interviews, right, Maybe we do one
19:14
Speaker 1: here or there. We'll pick somebody that'll be easy, honest,
19:17
Speaker 1: and we'll just let the media write the story. Donald
19:19
Speaker 1: Trump bad, Kamwa Harrison not as bad, and that might
19:23
Speaker 1: get us to election day.
19:24
Speaker 4: Well. And it's difficult to overstate how strange that is.
19:28
Speaker 4: Like in a campaign, doing media interviews is number one,
19:32
Speaker 4: I think a responsibility you owe. But number two, it's
19:34
Speaker 4: a vehicle typically for getting your message out. So as
19:38
Speaker 4: you and I are sitting here right now recording this,
19:40
Speaker 4: it is twelve twenty two in the morning, and I
19:44
Speaker 4: am on the highway driving back from Austin to Houston.
19:47
Speaker 4: I'm in the middle of a campaign. So I'm campaigning.
19:50
Speaker 4: Just today on Thursday, I've done multiple media interviews. That's
19:53
Speaker 4: what one does when one's running for reelection per Senate,
19:56
Speaker 4: much less if you're running to be president of the
19:59
Speaker 4: United States. And it is striking that we are weeks
20:02
Speaker 4: into her campaign and she's done none. Now, look, I
20:05
Speaker 4: fully expect she's going to get a couple of servile
20:08
Speaker 4: journalists to come up and give her some softball interview
20:12
Speaker 4: and tell her, Madam Vice President, tell us now, and
20:14
Speaker 4: this is the really important question the American people want
20:16
Speaker 4: to know, Are you more beautiful or are you more brilliant?
20:19
Speaker 4: How do you answer that that? I'm sure they'll do that.
20:23
Speaker 4: They'll tee up some fawning sick of fans if we
20:26
Speaker 4: had a functioning press coll Let's take for example, this week.
20:31
Speaker 4: This week we had a really consequential set of primaries
20:35
Speaker 4: in Missouri, and in particular, Corey Bush, one of the
20:37
Speaker 4: members of the Squad, Corey Bush, was beaten in a
20:41
Speaker 4: Democrat primary. Now, Corey Bush's views are noxious, they're radical
20:45
Speaker 4: to their extreme. Corey Bush, like Kamala Harris, has been
20:48
Speaker 4: a leading voice for abolishing the police and defunding the police.
20:52
Speaker 4: Corey Bush, like Kamala Harris, has been viciously anti Israel,
20:58
Speaker 4: has courted the pro Hamade wing of the Democrat Party.
21:01
Speaker 4: In fact, she is the Prohomas wing of the Democrat Party.
21:04
Speaker 4: Corey Bush was beaten and was beaten significantly in a
21:08
Speaker 4: Democrat primary, and you know hadn't said a word about it.
21:10
Speaker 4: Kamala Harris, not a word, nothing to say about it,
21:13
Speaker 4: Nothing to see here. Now, if you actually had reporters
21:17
Speaker 4: that said, you know, I got a job, I'm actually
21:20
Speaker 4: a reporter. I'm supposed to ask, not the questions that
21:23
Speaker 4: the campaign wants me to ask. I'm supposed to ask
21:25
Speaker 4: the difficult questions. Someone would have asked Kamala Harris before
21:29
Speaker 4: the primary on Tuesday, Hey, Kamala, what do you think
21:32
Speaker 4: of Corey Bush? Should she win her primary or not?
21:35
Speaker 4: Nobody asked that. She didn't answer that. After Corey Bush
21:39
Speaker 4: is beaten, Hey, Kamala, what do you think about one
21:41
Speaker 4: of the squad members being beaten? What do you think
21:43
Speaker 4: about the fact that she's the second squad member beaten
21:45
Speaker 4: this year? Jamal Bowman in New York was beaten earlier
21:48
Speaker 4: this year, again in a Democrat primary. What do you
21:51
Speaker 4: think about that? By the way, Corey Bush, when she lost,
21:55
Speaker 4: gave this vicious anti Israel, anti Semitic speech where she
21:59
Speaker 4: blamed a pack. Now that that, if you're a hardcore leftist,
22:03
Speaker 4: is the best villain imaginable a pack? Oh? You're you're
22:07
Speaker 4: envisioning like like like Mephistopheles twirling his mustache as you say. APAK,
22:13
Speaker 4: that's who she blamed. Does anyone ask Kamala harris A, Kamala,
22:18
Speaker 4: who are you with? Are you with Corey Busher? Or
22:21
Speaker 4: do you agree with APEC? That's true? APEC raised a
22:23
Speaker 4: bunch of money against Corey Bush. Why because Corey Bush
22:26
Speaker 4: has been viciously anti Israel and APAK is a group
22:30
Speaker 4: that raises money to strengthen the US Israel relationship. But
22:33
Speaker 4: Kamala is trying to walk a tight rope. Or she
22:38
Speaker 4: wants the support of the Squad, She wants the support
22:41
Speaker 4: of the Squad supporters, She wants the support of the
22:44
Speaker 4: Rabbit anti Semites in Dearborn, Michigan. She wants the support
22:47
Speaker 4: of the Rabbit anti Semites in Minnesota in the Democrat Party,
22:52
Speaker 4: but she also doesn't want to alienate the other votes
22:56
Speaker 4: she needs. And right now the media is perfectly okay
22:59
Speaker 4: with nothing to see here. Let's get back to saying
23:02
Speaker 4: what a great, wonderful historic candidate you are. And oh, oh,
23:07
Speaker 4: did you see the crowds at a rallies? Wonderful, wonderful,
23:10
Speaker 4: wonderful Hosanna, Hosanna, hosanna.
23:13
Speaker 1: So so let's go to Tim then, how important is
23:16
Speaker 1: he as a VP candidate if they're going to hide her,
23:19
Speaker 1: because he hasn't exactly had the best rowout either.
23:22
Speaker 2: He is a radical, far left guy.
23:25
Speaker 1: They've tried to turn him into some sort of you know,
23:28
Speaker 1: moderate individual that's been backfiring in an incredible way. He's
23:33
Speaker 1: someone that has repeatedly called, for example, for universal health
23:36
Speaker 1: care that's really come to be an issue over the
23:38
Speaker 1: last twenty four hours. He also says he wants to
23:41
Speaker 1: raise taxes on Americans in a big way, saying that
23:44
Speaker 1: the rich need to pay their fair share. And then
23:47
Speaker 1: just some of his radical beliefs now that he's having
23:50
Speaker 1: answer questions about abortion on demand, you know, voter id
23:54
Speaker 1: that he didn't want to have, and allowing illegal immigrants
23:57
Speaker 1: to be involved in politics at a local level. He
24:00
Speaker 1: even mentioned before. These are things that are coming back
24:03
Speaker 1: to I think haunt the campaign in a sense.
24:05
Speaker 2: Do they hide him as well?
24:08
Speaker 4: Well? Listen, Historically vice presidential picks have not made a
24:13
Speaker 4: huge difference. That's something Trump has said a number of times,
24:16
Speaker 4: and he's right in that historically, presidential elections are about
24:20
Speaker 4: the presidential nominees, and the VP typically has a very
24:25
Speaker 4: marginal impact on the edges. A VP can make a
24:28
Speaker 4: difference in a given state sometimes. But I will say
24:32
Speaker 4: right now, I think the folks on the writer are
24:35
Speaker 4: very focused on Tim Waltz. That's fine, But the biggest
24:40
Speaker 4: value of Tim Waltz is to illustrate how radical Kamala is,
24:45
Speaker 4: because Kamala is the nominee, and understand, Kamala is a
24:49
Speaker 4: wild eyed leftist. As the nonpartisan gov Track website identified,
24:56
Speaker 4: she was in twenty nineteen the single most liberal United
25:00
Speaker 4: States senator out of one hundred. She was number one hundred,
25:03
Speaker 4: the most extreme to the left, to the left of
25:06
Speaker 4: Bernie Sanders, to the left of Elizabeth Warren. So it
25:10
Speaker 4: is not surprising that she picks as her VP not
25:15
Speaker 4: Josh Shapiro, a perceived moderate Democrat who could potentially deliver
25:19
Speaker 4: a swing state, but who would piss off the Prohomas
25:22
Speaker 4: core of the Democrat Party because he's Jewish and by
25:25
Speaker 4: the way, it really speaks volumes just how bad an
25:30
Speaker 4: action here heert? I want on this point, I want
25:33
Speaker 4: to play a segment from CNN because I want you
25:39
Speaker 4: to listen to CNN the commentators talking about how that
25:44
Speaker 4: they're kind of glad that Kamala didn't pick Josh Shapiro.
25:49
Speaker 4: Why because it would tick off the radicals and the
25:52
Speaker 4: Prohamas base of the Democrat Party. And they said, well,
25:54
Speaker 4: that'd be bad. We don't want to tick them off.
25:56
Speaker 4: And Jake Tapper, I got to say, and I wish
26:00
Speaker 4: this was one of our video episodes. It's just audio.
26:04
Speaker 4: I wish you could see it, but you ought to
26:06
Speaker 4: just listen because he is so uncomfortable because the CNN
26:10
Speaker 4: commentators are basically saying, well, she obviously couldn't pick a
26:14
Speaker 4: jew because the leftists and the Democrat Party would get
26:19
Speaker 4: really mad if her nominee was Jewish. And you can
26:23
Speaker 4: see Jake Tapper going, no, no, stop stop saying this.
26:28
Speaker 4: But give a listen to this exchange because it really
26:31
Speaker 4: shows number one, how poisoned and extreme the Democrat Party
26:37
Speaker 4: has been, as reflected by their mouthpieces on CNN. But
26:41
Speaker 4: number two, it shows that Tim Waltz pick I think
26:44
Speaker 4: is very revealing of who Kamala Harris is. Give a listen.
26:48
Speaker 8: And I think ultimately Shapiro, I think fit is important.
26:53
Speaker 8: But you know, I also think that when you look
26:57
Speaker 8: at the principle of do no harm. Maybe they did say,
27:00
Speaker 8: in a state like Minnesota, do we want to those
27:04
Speaker 8: one hundred thousand uncommitted voters who came out about the
27:08
Speaker 8: Gaza war? Do we want to antagonize those voters? Those
27:13
Speaker 8: are all parts of part of the questions as well.
27:16
Speaker 9: But I just say Tim Walls also spoke conciliatorily towards
27:22
Speaker 9: those people. He said, look, that uncommitted vote is significant
27:25
Speaker 9: and those people should be heard.
27:27
Speaker 7: So having that.
27:28
Speaker 9: Kind of response, I think is probably more of an
27:31
Speaker 9: open door to the parts of the party that have
27:33
Speaker 9: been very frustrated with the Democrats.
27:36
Speaker 7: So but just to just to one point on the
27:39
Speaker 7: on the on the Gaza war, Shapiro has the same
27:42
Speaker 7: position on Israel that Governor Walls that the Senator Kelly has.
27:47
Speaker 7: He's actually been more critical of Netanyahu than the other two.
27:52
Speaker 2: But he is Jewish and also.
27:55
Speaker 9: The face of the crackdown on the protests.
27:58
Speaker 4: Right.
27:58
Speaker 9: He spoke very vehemently about those campus protests as being
28:02
Speaker 9: anti Semitic.
28:03
Speaker 7: Not all of them, the ones that were anti Semitic,
28:05
Speaker 7: he criticized this being anti snitic.
28:07
Speaker 9: He was out front on the issue. So I'm wondering
28:10
Speaker 9: if that's the kind of thing that again for the
28:13
Speaker 9: activist wing of the party.
28:15
Speaker 2: Absolutely was a slap in the face. Senator, you hear that.
28:18
Speaker 1: And I have to think that this is going to
28:21
Speaker 1: start hurting Harris and Waltz's campaign if you just alienated
28:28
Speaker 1: Jewish voters like this, but not just that those that
28:32
Speaker 1: also stand with Israel. And I do have friends that
28:36
Speaker 1: are liberal that stand with Israel and are proud to
28:39
Speaker 1: stand with Israel. This is not going to sit well
28:41
Speaker 1: with them either.
28:42
Speaker 4: Well, and look, look CNN is reporting there, and again
28:45
Speaker 4: I wish you could see Jake Tapper. You and I
28:47
Speaker 4: both know Jake Tapper, but if you watch the video
28:50
Speaker 4: of this, Tapper is so painfully uncomfortable with what the
28:55
Speaker 4: CNN commentator is saying. Because the sann come to like, well,
29:00
Speaker 4: you know, there are a bunch of voters in Minnesota
29:03
Speaker 4: that that that that voted uncommitted. Why because they were
29:06
Speaker 4: mad at Joe Biden that he wasn't anti Israel enough. Yes,
29:09
Speaker 4: he'd undermined Israel from day one, but but but he
29:12
Speaker 4: was willing to provide some weapons to Israel, and they
29:14
Speaker 4: were mad and and and so so you know, maybe
29:17
Speaker 4: this was a wise decision to go with Waltson not Shapiro,
29:20
Speaker 4: and it's interesting. Tapper goes, well, wait a second. On
29:23
Speaker 4: the policy positions, Shapiro stated, policy is the same as Waltz's,
29:29
Speaker 4: is the same as Mark Kelly's. Is the difference that
29:33
Speaker 4: he's Jewish. And the commentator doesn't answer, but the answer
29:36
Speaker 4: is basically, well yeah, no, no, no, no, they're Matt. They
29:39
Speaker 4: don't want yeah, and he won Jewish on the ticket, Like,
29:42
Speaker 4: it's not the policy, it's the fact that he's Jewish.
29:45
Speaker 4: And and then so she actually goes back said she's like, no, no, no,
29:49
Speaker 4: She tries to dodge, and she says, no, no, no,
29:51
Speaker 4: it's that he denounced the anti Semitic protests on campus.
29:57
Speaker 4: And Tapper's like, well, yeah, the the ones that were
30:01
Speaker 4: anti Semitic. And the commenters say, well, well, well you
30:05
Speaker 4: just you don't want to make the people mad who
30:09
Speaker 4: like anti Semitic protests. But like that was her argument,
30:14
Speaker 4: is because he is Jewish. She didn't admit that, but
30:18
Speaker 4: that was obviously what she meant. And b because he
30:22
Speaker 4: dared say viciously anti Semitic protests are wrong, that the
30:28
Speaker 4: risk was too high for him to be on the ticket.
30:31
Speaker 4: And so where instead did Kamala go? And she went
30:35
Speaker 4: to Tim Waltson And listen again, I think we should
30:39
Speaker 4: not obsess about Tim Waltz. He's not gonna matter a
30:42
Speaker 4: whole lot at the end of the day. Now, the media,
30:45
Speaker 4: as much as they're trying to turn Kamala into Saint Kamala,
30:48
Speaker 4: they're trying to turn Tim Walton Nanny Griffith. He is
30:52
Speaker 4: a Midwestern coach, He's a dad. He's gosh, golly.
30:56
Speaker 9: Ge wooo.
30:58
Speaker 4: I mean, he's just a nice old fella. He like
31:01
Speaker 4: pets himself some dogs, and he's just gosh, Grandpa Joe
31:08
Speaker 4: and this guy. Okay, I'm gonna give some unsolicited advice
31:14
Speaker 4: to the Trump campaign. Focus on the substance of Kamala
31:20
Speaker 4: Harris's record and Tim Waltz's record. Both of them are
31:24
Speaker 4: radical and extreme. Don't get don't get distracted, don't go
31:30
Speaker 4: down to digression. The media wants you to go down
31:32
Speaker 4: to digression. These two are the most radical two people
31:38
Speaker 4: ever nominated by a major party to be president and
31:42
Speaker 4: vice president. Their records are identical. The reason Kamala Harris
31:45
Speaker 4: picked Tim Waltz is she wanted a fellow radical. And
31:50
Speaker 4: actually one illustration that I that I think really speaks volumes.
31:55
Speaker 4: You know you look at you. And I've talked about
31:58
Speaker 4: this before. Bernie Sanders, Mike colleague in the Senate. When
32:01
Speaker 4: he got married, he made the decision to honeymoon in
32:06
Speaker 4: the Soviet Union. Now that's bizarre, like like, I don't
32:10
Speaker 4: know who says, Okay, I'm on my honeymoon. Where do
32:13
Speaker 4: I want to go? The Soviet Union? Comrade, that's where
32:16
Speaker 4: I want to be. Look, Heidi and I we went
32:17
Speaker 4: to Saint Thomas. We went to the beach. It was
32:19
Speaker 4: really pretty. We had some bararitas, doc dakers. We walked
32:22
Speaker 4: barefoot in the sand, like like that's what you do.
32:25
Speaker 4: Where did you guys go in your honeymoon?
32:26
Speaker 3: Ben?
32:27
Speaker 4: And if you say the Soviet Union?
32:28
Speaker 1: We went down to Yeah, we went down to Mexico exactly.
32:33
Speaker 1: It was like, hey, where's a direct flight out of Houston?
32:35
Speaker 2: How uh?
32:36
Speaker 1: It was like Stoppa San Watineo for a week, and
32:39
Speaker 1: then I surprised her with a second week. She thought
32:41
Speaker 1: we were flying home and I called her Bosston Saint
32:44
Speaker 1: Jude and I said, look, can I'm only going to
32:46
Speaker 1: get two weeks off my whole life one time? Can
32:48
Speaker 1: I please surprise her? And we went the second week
32:51
Speaker 1: to Cabo.
32:53
Speaker 4: You are a romantic son of a gun. I've ever
32:55
Speaker 4: been to Zewa and Dajo. All I know is it's
32:57
Speaker 4: where Tim Robbins was going to go in Shaw Shank Redemption.
33:00
Speaker 4: And it sure looked pretty in the in the film,
33:01
Speaker 4: but I haven't been there. What was it? Gorgeous?
33:04
Speaker 2: You put it on your list.
33:05
Speaker 1: It's it is one of the most gorgeous places I've
33:08
Speaker 1: ever been in my entire life.
33:10
Speaker 4: Okay, so let me ask you, do you regret instead
33:13
Speaker 4: of going to Zeiwa Dajo and walking into the sand,
33:17
Speaker 4: that you didn't go to the Soviet Union and pay
33:20
Speaker 4: homage to Marks and Lenin and the heroes of the revolution,
33:24
Speaker 4: like that's basso.
33:25
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, And yeah, it was a It was
33:28
Speaker 1: a toss up, right, It was a big toss up
33:30
Speaker 1: which one would which one would be better of a surprise,
33:34
Speaker 1: go to go to Russian maybe never come back, or
33:37
Speaker 1: go to Mexico and hang out on a beach.
33:39
Speaker 2: Yeah.
33:40
Speaker 4: So the reason it's relevant to talk about where Bernie
33:43
Speaker 4: went on this honeymoon is it shows what his values are,
33:46
Speaker 4: what he what he admires, what he cares about, who
33:49
Speaker 4: he wants to be. Well, Tim Waltz on his honeymoon
33:53
Speaker 4: went to communist China. Now that's a little weird, but
33:56
Speaker 4: there's a second piece. And we talked about the fact
33:59
Speaker 4: that we went to I mean, it's China on Wednesday spot.
34:01
Speaker 4: But the second piece that broke on Thursday that I
34:03
Speaker 4: didn't know for Wednesday's spot. Do you know what day
34:07
Speaker 4: Tim Waltz chose to get married on.
34:10
Speaker 1: See when this broke, I was immediate, like, this is
34:14
Speaker 1: gonna be some internet like rumor, it's gonna get fact check,
34:17
Speaker 1: it's not gonna be real. I was like, there's no way,
34:21
Speaker 1: and then sure enough, it is real and you can
34:23
Speaker 1: tell the audience exactly what you're talking about.
34:27
Speaker 4: He chose to get married on the anniversary of the
34:30
Speaker 4: Timan Square massacre, the t Square where you had hundreds
34:36
Speaker 4: of thousands, if not millions, of Chinese standing up for freedom,
34:39
Speaker 4: standing up against oppression, standing up against the oppressive communist bastards,
34:44
Speaker 4: and the Chinese tyrannical governments sent in tanks mowed them down.
34:50
Speaker 4: And it is it was an incredible moment of heroism
34:54
Speaker 4: on the part of the students and the young people
34:56
Speaker 4: standing up against tyranny, and it was an incredible moment
35:00
Speaker 4: brutality on the part of the regime stomping them down.
35:05
Speaker 4: And I got to say, the only word I know
35:08
Speaker 4: to describe somebody who chooses to get married on the
35:12
Speaker 4: anniversary of Channemen Square and then Honeymoon's and Communist China,
35:15
Speaker 4: The only word I know to describe is weird, which
35:19
Speaker 4: is really funny because well, like the only thing anyone
35:22
Speaker 4: knows about him is he started running around saying Donald
35:25
Speaker 4: Trump and Jdvans are weird, and it's like, dude, that
35:29
Speaker 4: is weird.
