Chad & JRo agreed with Mike's perspective, sharing their own experiences of lockdowns. TGT expressed skepticism about the severity of the virus, pointing out that the death rate was very low and similar to the previous year.

00:00:34.859 --> 00:00:38.859
Oh, my God. Too old, man. This is going to be
00:00:38.859 --> 00:00:42.280
a fun show, Chad. We got Mr. Mike Jones coming
00:00:42.280 --> 00:00:46.380
on. PA State Representative Mike Jones from the
00:00:46.380 --> 00:00:49.280
93rd District, which is your county. What's up?
00:00:49.850 --> 00:00:52.170
What up? He was born and raised in York County,
00:00:52.310 --> 00:00:54.590
so this is a good thing. And, you know, he wants
00:00:54.590 --> 00:00:57.250
to come on here and talk about how pivotal York
00:00:57.250 --> 00:00:59.630
County is going to be to Trump winning Pennsylvania.
00:01:00.509 --> 00:01:03.149
And just to show everybody out there how naive
00:01:03.149 --> 00:01:05.450
I am, but maybe have a little bit here. He's
00:01:05.450 --> 00:01:08.269
a part of the House of Representatives, which
00:01:08.269 --> 00:01:13.430
I believe is a member of Congress. I think part
00:01:13.430 --> 00:01:15.370
of the Pennsylvania State Congress. Yes, correct.
00:01:17.170 --> 00:01:19.870
So we're going to learn all about what that entails,
00:01:20.030 --> 00:01:21.890
what he has to do. But this dude is cool, man.
00:01:22.049 --> 00:01:25.849
From what I've seen, he was fighting for Pennsylvania
00:01:25.849 --> 00:01:28.890
to not close down all the businesses during COVID
00:01:28.890 --> 00:01:32.629
-19. Yep. So he was on the right side following
00:01:32.629 --> 00:01:36.030
the science rather than listening to momos. Right.
00:01:36.129 --> 00:01:37.969
The science has since proven that was a whole
00:01:37.969 --> 00:01:42.379
bunch of fucking horse shit. Yeah, man. But good
00:01:42.379 --> 00:01:44.379
for him for being ahead of the curve and, like,
00:01:44.379 --> 00:01:46.299
saying that stuff and trying to stand up for
00:01:46.299 --> 00:01:48.359
the people because not many politicians have
00:01:48.359 --> 00:01:51.700
our backs nowadays. So it's nice to have. Exactly.
00:01:52.040 --> 00:01:55.959
Dude, dude. And then he was helping the primary
00:01:55.959 --> 00:01:59.180
two people against the incumbents, Republicans,
00:01:59.620 --> 00:02:06.480
because the two incumbents were okay with the
00:02:06.480 --> 00:02:12.319
COVID lockdowns. So he helped these two primary
00:02:12.319 --> 00:02:15.159
against them, the incumbents, and they got pissed
00:02:15.159 --> 00:02:16.919
off and they tried to censure him for fucking,
00:02:17.000 --> 00:02:20.139
you know, basically supporting other candidates
00:02:20.139 --> 00:02:22.659
than the incumbents. This is a Republican Party
00:02:22.659 --> 00:02:24.879
itself going after him. It's like, Jesus Christ,
00:02:24.979 --> 00:02:27.620
what the fuck? Yeah, man. Well, like we say all
00:02:27.620 --> 00:02:30.819

00:02:42.469 --> 00:02:45.530

00:03:10.199 --> 00:03:12.919

00:03:21.159 --> 00:03:24.620
man and it's like beyond it's fucking insane
00:03:24.620 --> 00:03:26.879
the shit that they stand for and they're doing
00:03:26.879 --> 00:03:30.909
is wild man Well, the fact that we have another
00:03:30.909 --> 00:03:34.129
natural disaster about to hit Florida and they
00:03:34.129 --> 00:03:36.849
weren't able to, you know, help the people in
00:03:36.849 --> 00:03:39.550
North Carolina yet is just this is scary, man.
00:03:39.889 --> 00:03:43.090
Well, then you got KJP fucking Korean Jean -Pierre
00:03:43.090 --> 00:03:46.509
going at like Ducey Ducey is asking her from
00:03:46.509 --> 00:03:49.090
Fox is asking her questions about, hey, why can
00:03:49.090 --> 00:03:52.530
why can funds immediately be available for Lebanon?
00:03:52.990 --> 00:03:55.650
157 million. Right. Congress has to come back
00:03:55.650 --> 00:03:59.889
into session and approve. money for north carolina
00:03:59.889 --> 00:04:02.509
why is that she's like well the whole premise
00:04:02.509 --> 00:04:04.889
of your question is misinformation he's like
00:04:04.889 --> 00:04:06.610
what the hell's what's what's misinformation
00:04:06.610 --> 00:04:09.550
about it and she's well it's misinformation you
00:04:09.550 --> 00:04:11.250
know she just they just say this and they never
00:04:11.250 --> 00:04:13.689
explain themselves it's misinformation right
00:04:13.689 --> 00:04:18.009
he's a lying sack of shit and it's just wild
00:04:18.009 --> 00:04:20.370
to watch her operate it's like how do you fucking
00:04:20.370 --> 00:04:22.750
sleep at night when you lie like that exactly
00:04:22.750 --> 00:04:27.519
man and and and okay explain why Is money immediately
00:04:27.519 --> 00:04:32.740
available for foreign countries and not for people
00:04:32.740 --> 00:04:34.920
in America? Why does Congress have to approve
00:04:34.920 --> 00:04:38.620
it? It doesn't make any sense. It's such a valid
00:04:38.620 --> 00:04:41.000
question, and to label it as a misinformation
00:04:41.000 --> 00:04:44.860
question is absurd. This is their playbook. This
00:04:44.860 --> 00:04:47.399
is a them playbook. It's like, oh, you asked
00:04:47.399 --> 00:04:49.779
me a real question that needs a real answer?
00:04:49.899 --> 00:04:51.680
Oh, this is misinformation. Oh, it's just false.
00:04:51.759 --> 00:04:54.300
The whole premise of your question is just false.
00:04:55.620 --> 00:04:58.860
Okay. No, it's not. Okay. Can you tell me how
00:04:58.860 --> 00:05:01.300
to ask that question without it being a misinformation
00:05:01.300 --> 00:05:03.939
question? Exactly. Nothing offered for that.
00:05:04.019 --> 00:05:06.040
And eventually she just storms off and leaves.
00:05:06.139 --> 00:05:07.639
She doesn't even fucking answer anything. She
00:05:07.639 --> 00:05:10.220
just leaves. Sounds about right. But that should
00:05:10.220 --> 00:05:11.980
be telling to people. You know what it is? The
00:05:11.980 --> 00:05:13.319
things that should be telling. You would think
00:05:13.319 --> 00:05:16.519
it would be. You would think it would be. Yeah,
00:05:16.540 --> 00:05:19.019
man. Unfortunately, everyone's so fucking tribal
00:05:19.019 --> 00:05:21.899
now. The left is so ingrained with their tribalism
00:05:21.899 --> 00:05:25.160
bullshit. The right, too. that that they will
00:05:25.160 --> 00:05:30.500
just overlook any like crazy negative shit that's
00:05:30.500 --> 00:05:32.060
going on with that party they'll just overlook
00:05:32.060 --> 00:05:34.759
it so oh no it's fine it's okay they don't want
00:05:34.759 --> 00:05:37.019
it they don't want to change the name to minor
00:05:37.019 --> 00:05:39.819
minor attractive people to help protect pedophiles
00:05:39.819 --> 00:05:41.399
no they don't want to do that they don't they're
00:05:41.399 --> 00:05:44.040
not trying constantly changing laws to lessen
00:05:44.040 --> 00:05:48.060
uh what happens to sex offenders that they don't
00:05:48.060 --> 00:05:50.220
they don't do that right that's not doing that
00:05:50.829 --> 00:05:53.930
They're not supporting laws that basically say,
00:05:54.129 --> 00:05:56.509
oh, yeah, it's okay to fuck a kid. No problem.
00:05:56.610 --> 00:05:59.689
Go ahead. We won't do much to you. That's all
00:05:59.689 --> 00:06:03.769
coming from the left. Why? Why is that? Why?
00:06:04.750 --> 00:06:11.250
Is Diddy a Democrat? Is Diddy going to be naming
00:06:11.250 --> 00:06:14.430
it? Diddy, Oprah, all those motherfuckers are
00:06:14.430 --> 00:06:16.769
Democrats. They're all â and why? They're all
00:06:16.769 --> 00:06:20.930
fucking kids. It's crazy. Allegedly. Allegedly.
00:06:20.930 --> 00:06:24.110
I feel really bad for, just let me say this,
00:06:24.170 --> 00:06:27.730
I feel really bad for Justin Bieber because Usher,
00:06:27.829 --> 00:06:31.730
who got abused by Diddy, then finds Bieber and
00:06:31.730 --> 00:06:35.290
throws him to the wolf of fucking Diddy. And
00:06:35.290 --> 00:06:37.870
that kid's all fucked up. I mean, it makes sense
00:06:37.870 --> 00:06:40.829
now why he's, you know, you get fame, you get
00:06:40.829 --> 00:06:42.589
all that money when you're young, but it makes
00:06:42.589 --> 00:06:45.910
sense why he's so fucked up because he got basically
00:06:45.910 --> 00:06:47.689
probably molested and raped by fucking Diddy.
00:06:48.430 --> 00:06:53.110
100%, man. Yeah, I mean, it's completely a shame,
00:06:53.230 --> 00:06:55.649
dude. You know, you hit the nail on the head
00:06:55.649 --> 00:06:58.050
with that, dude. But kind of touching on this.
00:06:58.129 --> 00:07:02.870
So Epstein, a victim of Epstein said this about
00:07:02.870 --> 00:07:05.230
Bernie Sanders, dude. So I got to figure out
00:07:05.230 --> 00:07:07.930
the name. And Bobby, you can kind of maybe look
00:07:07.930 --> 00:07:10.269
this up as I'm going about it. But so nobody
00:07:10.269 --> 00:07:11.990
knew what I was going with here. Oh, by the way,
00:07:12.009 --> 00:07:14.310
Elon on Tucker just said if Trump becomes president,
00:07:14.410 --> 00:07:16.689
the Epstein list is coming out. That's why they're
00:07:16.689 --> 00:07:19.389
fighting so hard. yeah, baby, let's go. That
00:07:19.389 --> 00:07:21.389
list needs to be out. We need to know who these
00:07:21.389 --> 00:07:23.810
fuckers are. And I hate when people are like,
00:07:23.889 --> 00:07:25.430
oh, Trump's on that list. I'm like, no, it's
00:07:25.430 --> 00:07:27.829
not. If he was on that list, you'd fucking know.
00:07:28.029 --> 00:07:32.589
You would know. 100%. So anyway, this victim
00:07:32.589 --> 00:07:37.410
that was being raped by somebody said that she
00:07:37.410 --> 00:07:40.029
witnessed Bernie Sanders. This is on Epstein's
00:07:40.029 --> 00:07:43.029
Island. Witnessed Bernie Sanders being held at
00:07:43.029 --> 00:07:49.839
gunpoint, forced down to rape a boy. um otherwise
00:07:49.839 --> 00:07:53.160
they would kill him so like she witnessed this
00:07:53.160 --> 00:07:56.980
he's being raped and uh so this is how crazy
00:07:56.980 --> 00:08:00.620
that island gets that they are forcing people
00:08:00.620 --> 00:08:02.660
at gunpoint to do this shit and have them on
00:08:02.660 --> 00:08:05.040
video and then they own them by the balls like
00:08:05.040 --> 00:08:06.540
that shit might have happened to diddy still
00:08:06.540 --> 00:08:09.560
for god's sakes right dude but you start hearing
00:08:09.560 --> 00:08:12.540
stuff like that man it's like what the fuck bro
00:08:13.079 --> 00:08:14.939
So you're going to have people, if that list,
00:08:15.019 --> 00:08:16.920
when that list comes out eventually, you're going
00:08:16.920 --> 00:08:19.459
to have people in there that were, if that is
00:08:19.459 --> 00:08:21.720
true about Bernie, that were forced into doing
00:08:21.720 --> 00:08:25.779
this shit. Right. For blackmail purposes. Okay.
00:08:26.339 --> 00:08:29.060
That makes it way more fucking complicated. Hold
00:08:29.060 --> 00:08:34.480
on one second, Bobby. Not yet with that. But
00:08:34.480 --> 00:08:37.840
because I want to get this out with that. You
00:08:37.840 --> 00:08:39.379
could write that in the chat, Bobby. This way
00:08:39.379 --> 00:08:43.759
you don't have to come in with a vocal. But because
00:08:43.759 --> 00:08:46.980
now you made me lose my train of thought. But
00:08:46.980 --> 00:08:48.919
so, you know, this is what I'm going to say.
00:08:48.960 --> 00:08:51.840
Like, if that was happening, me as an individual,
00:08:51.980 --> 00:08:55.240
Chad, I don't care gun to my head or not. My
00:08:55.240 --> 00:08:57.379
dick's not going to be working to rape a little
00:08:57.379 --> 00:09:00.879
boy. Yeah, exactly. How would you even get aroused
00:09:00.879 --> 00:09:03.840
by that? Right. So it's like, I don't understand
00:09:03.840 --> 00:09:06.620
how, you know, stuff like that happens. Like,
00:09:06.620 --> 00:09:09.179
or like, you know, what kind of drugs they were
00:09:09.179 --> 00:09:12.120
giving these people or. If that account is correct,
00:09:12.240 --> 00:09:14.779
again, this is supposedly a victim on there.
00:09:14.820 --> 00:09:18.179
I saw it on Twitter, and she was on a podcast,
00:09:18.340 --> 00:09:20.960
you know, speaking about it. But it's just crazy,
00:09:21.059 --> 00:09:22.919
man. That list needs to come out. They need to
00:09:22.919 --> 00:09:25.480
be looking into these people. Like, the fact
00:09:25.480 --> 00:09:29.299
that all this went on and nobody, you know, Epstein's
00:09:29.299 --> 00:09:32.240
dead over it, Ghislaine is in jail, but nobody
00:09:32.240 --> 00:09:35.120
that was on that island doing this shit is being
00:09:35.120 --> 00:09:38.450
brought up on charges. That's what Elon said
00:09:38.450 --> 00:09:40.450
on Tucker. He prefaced this whole argument by
00:09:40.450 --> 00:09:42.870
saying, or this whole discussion by saying, there's
00:09:42.870 --> 00:09:45.309
still five or 600 people in jail for January
00:09:45.309 --> 00:09:49.409
6th. That horseshit. And nobody on the Epstein
00:09:49.409 --> 00:09:52.970
list is arrested. Nobody. Not fucking one of
00:09:52.970 --> 00:09:56.570
them. It's crazy, man. It's like, what does it
00:09:56.570 --> 00:10:01.509
take to, you know, for them to, you know, why
00:10:01.509 --> 00:10:04.330
are people not up in arms about this? Well, because
00:10:04.330 --> 00:10:06.470
most of it's, I guarantee you, when that list
00:10:06.470 --> 00:10:08.110
comes out, it's all going to be mostly fucking
00:10:08.110 --> 00:10:11.289
Democrats. It's going to be fucking 95 % Democrats.
00:10:12.389 --> 00:10:14.529
And mainstream media doesn't want to cover it
00:10:14.529 --> 00:10:16.009
because they don't want to fuck up their whole
00:10:16.009 --> 00:10:20.009
deal. Oh, and James O 'Keefe just did an undercover
00:10:20.009 --> 00:10:24.289
with one of the lead producers at MSNBC, I believe.
00:10:24.870 --> 00:10:28.470
And he says in the video, we are in lockstep
00:10:28.470 --> 00:10:30.370
with the Democrat Party. We are basically an
00:10:30.370 --> 00:10:32.720
extended arm of the Democrat Party. This is the
00:10:32.720 --> 00:10:35.460
fucking producer admitting it on camera. Now,
00:10:35.500 --> 00:10:38.720
we know this just from observing it, but to have
00:10:38.720 --> 00:10:43.799
an executive producer at MSNBC saying this on
00:10:43.799 --> 00:10:47.940
camera, there's no objective journalism right
00:10:47.940 --> 00:10:51.299
there. It's out the fucking window. You are being
00:10:51.299 --> 00:10:55.360
fed propaganda constantly every day by that network,
00:10:55.519 --> 00:11:01.559
CNN, ABC, NBC, MSNBC. And probably a little bit
00:11:01.559 --> 00:11:05.440
on Fox, too. Let's not get crazy. Yeah. Oh, yeah,
00:11:05.500 --> 00:11:09.200
for sure. Propaganda. Like I said, I think Fox
00:11:09.200 --> 00:11:12.620
is the most balanced. Again, they lean very far
00:11:12.620 --> 00:11:15.220
right and stuff like that. At least they report
00:11:15.220 --> 00:11:18.419
on stuff, and they'll give their opinion. They'll
00:11:18.419 --> 00:11:20.019
let you know it's their opinion, but they're
00:11:20.019 --> 00:11:24.539
reporting shit. Yeah. But you have, yeah, the
00:11:24.539 --> 00:11:27.960
media is controlled by the Democrat Party. Yeah.
00:11:28.000 --> 00:11:30.840
I mean, the fact that. North Carolina's in and
00:11:30.840 --> 00:11:32.340
out of the news cycle. They're not even talking
00:11:32.340 --> 00:11:34.659
about FEMA not being there and helping them out.
00:11:35.580 --> 00:11:39.299
The fact that the first and second attempt on
00:11:39.299 --> 00:11:41.559
President Trump's life are in and out of the
00:11:41.559 --> 00:11:44.299
news cycle so quick and not being spoken about
00:11:44.299 --> 00:11:48.320
is crazy, man. It's crazy. Well, not even that.
00:11:48.519 --> 00:11:50.659
FEMA might be there, but they're not getting
00:11:50.659 --> 00:11:52.940
supplies to people. And they're waving. They're
00:11:52.940 --> 00:11:55.299
not allowing people to fucking help, like people
00:11:55.299 --> 00:11:57.139
with private helicopters like that Greg Biffle
00:11:57.139 --> 00:12:00.639
guy that. that bill knows like he's flying helicopters
00:12:00.639 --> 00:12:04.240
in there to try to help people and fema's cutting
00:12:04.240 --> 00:12:06.460
off fuel supply like no get the fuck out of here
00:12:06.460 --> 00:12:11.440
right why right and like you were saying i think
00:12:11.440 --> 00:12:13.960
before the show started how does how does uh
00:12:13.960 --> 00:12:16.220
the federal government have money to just send
00:12:16.220 --> 00:12:19.990
overseas without calling Congress into session
00:12:19.990 --> 00:12:22.649
and all that stuff, but they can't send money
00:12:22.649 --> 00:12:25.070
to us Americans for a natural disaster. We can
00:12:25.070 --> 00:12:27.269
send hundreds of millions, billions of dollars
00:12:27.269 --> 00:12:31.009
to all these countries overseas without any fucking
00:12:31.009 --> 00:12:33.789
oversight, without just the president says, hey,
00:12:33.809 --> 00:12:38.590
we're sending $8 billion. But then something
00:12:38.590 --> 00:12:41.129
happens in America and FEMA's out of money because
00:12:41.129 --> 00:12:43.029
they spent it all on the illegals and they deny
00:12:43.029 --> 00:12:46.649
that like we don't fucking know. And they say
00:12:46.649 --> 00:12:51.360
that's a lie, which it is not. and then there's
00:12:51.360 --> 00:12:54.919
no money for her you know a natural disaster
00:12:54.919 --> 00:12:58.980
in americans okay i mean it's it's america last
00:12:58.980 --> 00:13:01.580
that's what this administration and this government
00:13:01.580 --> 00:13:04.120
for that matter is all about america last they
00:13:04.120 --> 00:13:07.720
don't give a fuck about you wake up well you
00:13:07.720 --> 00:13:09.460
know it is though chad so it's like but they
00:13:09.460 --> 00:13:11.620
start to realize that they're still being voted
00:13:11.620 --> 00:13:14.620
in So it's like they realize, like, it doesn't
00:13:14.620 --> 00:13:16.919
matter. Like, if the people themselves aren't
00:13:16.919 --> 00:13:18.879
going to wake up and stand for themselves and
00:13:18.879 --> 00:13:20.759
vote people out and all that stuff, it's like,
00:13:20.799 --> 00:13:23.860
why should they change their ways, you know?
00:13:24.100 --> 00:13:26.080
All these negative things happen, and either
00:13:26.080 --> 00:13:28.059
the news doesn't report about it so people don't
00:13:28.059 --> 00:13:29.840
know about it, or they know about it, but then
00:13:29.840 --> 00:13:34.820
they get a, you know. They get pulled in by their
00:13:34.820 --> 00:13:36.960
bullshit local ads and whatever they're saying
00:13:36.960 --> 00:13:39.340
to them. You know, they're just the lies that
00:13:39.340 --> 00:13:40.899
they spew to them. And they go, oh, I guess I
00:13:40.899 --> 00:13:43.840
got to vote for them because, you know, Trump's
00:13:43.840 --> 00:13:47.779
bad. Yeah. Yeah. Republicans are racist. OK.
00:13:48.000 --> 00:13:52.240
Yeah. Got it. I just I just had more faith in
00:13:52.240 --> 00:13:54.320
humanity, I guess, dude. You know what I'm saying?
00:13:54.360 --> 00:13:57.299
Like I had more faith in the American people,
00:13:57.500 --> 00:14:00.639
just people in general. Like, I don't know. it's
00:14:00.639 --> 00:14:03.080
just it doesn't make sense in my brain you know
00:14:03.080 --> 00:14:06.600
what i'm saying i agree i totally agree and then
00:14:06.600 --> 00:14:08.480
when you talk to people about it and they'll
00:14:08.480 --> 00:14:12.220
say well but but you know this has happened and
00:14:12.220 --> 00:14:14.299
then you refute it show them evidence on how
00:14:14.299 --> 00:14:18.279
he's a felon right the fuck up they just hop
00:14:18.279 --> 00:14:21.340
on to the next talking point without you know
00:14:21.340 --> 00:14:23.799
realizing like oh okay well he actually explained
00:14:23.799 --> 00:14:26.399
this properly and gave me an answer they hop
00:14:26.399 --> 00:14:29.159
on to the next try to gotcha question to make
00:14:29.159 --> 00:14:33.629
you know to just it just makes no sense man and
00:14:33.629 --> 00:14:37.289
it's like the average american citizen is hurt
00:14:37.289 --> 00:14:40.230
and you're going to the grocery store milk is
00:14:40.230 --> 00:14:44.049
up all products are up right what again and then
00:14:44.049 --> 00:14:46.450
they just lie about that too the democrats well
00:14:46.450 --> 00:14:48.909
inflation's only three percent this year no no
00:14:48.909 --> 00:14:55.360
it's 25 since you took over right right Yeah,
00:14:55.379 --> 00:14:57.340
but I guess you could just lie and do that, and
00:14:57.340 --> 00:15:00.179
it's supposed to be okay because nobody's looking
00:15:00.179 --> 00:15:03.080
for follow -ups or holding people accountable.
00:15:03.179 --> 00:15:04.440
I guess that's really what it is. Well, there's
00:15:04.440 --> 00:15:06.299
no, like I said earlier, there's no real journalism.
00:15:06.379 --> 00:15:11.179
There's no fucking real journalism. Yeah. Mike
00:15:11.179 --> 00:15:12.740
said he's trying to get on the house computer.
00:15:12.879 --> 00:15:15.980
If it blocks me, he'll get on his phone. Okay.
00:15:16.039 --> 00:15:19.279
Yeah, no worries. He sent an email. So guests
00:15:19.279 --> 00:15:20.700
might be on a little bit late. You know how we
00:15:20.700 --> 00:15:23.379
try to get the guests on around 115, but. That's
00:15:23.379 --> 00:15:25.220
the beauty of the live show, gracious audience
00:15:25.220 --> 00:15:30.659
out there. You always laugh at our technical
00:15:30.659 --> 00:15:33.779
difficulties, so thank you for that. I'm going
00:15:33.779 --> 00:15:36.080
to ask Mike if Democrats in Pennsylvania are
00:15:36.080 --> 00:15:38.919
trying to lessen child predator fucking laws.
00:15:40.559 --> 00:15:44.159
Dude, that right there should be enough to get
00:15:44.159 --> 00:15:46.679
people not only thrown out of office, but thrown
00:15:46.679 --> 00:15:50.340
in jail. I agree. And people keep voting for
00:15:50.340 --> 00:15:54.139
it. I'm just like, why? Maybe you don't have
00:15:54.139 --> 00:15:56.259
kids, or maybe you do have kids, but why the
00:15:56.259 --> 00:16:00.480
fuck are you voting for a party that's trying
00:16:00.480 --> 00:16:05.799
to make pedophilia normal? Right. And why are
00:16:05.799 --> 00:16:10.220
they trying to do that? Yeah. I mean, maybe they
00:16:10.220 --> 00:16:12.620
don't have kids. I don't give a fuck, dude. I
00:16:12.620 --> 00:16:14.440
don't have kids, and I know that that shit's
00:16:14.440 --> 00:16:18.580
not kosher or cool. Yeah. You know? Yep. It's
00:16:18.580 --> 00:16:22.240
wild. It is wild, man. And for a long time, I
00:16:22.240 --> 00:16:25.200
was chalking it up to, you know, people being
00:16:25.200 --> 00:16:28.039
because I guess they say ignorance is bliss and
00:16:28.039 --> 00:16:30.539
all that stuff. But at some point, your ignorance
00:16:30.539 --> 00:16:33.940
becomes compliance. And like, you need to step
00:16:33.940 --> 00:16:36.139
it up because you're part of the problem. You
00:16:36.139 --> 00:16:38.940
know what I'm saying? Like, you can no longer
00:16:38.940 --> 00:16:40.519
be like, oh, well, I'm not really paying attention.
00:16:40.779 --> 00:16:42.500
And this is what I've heard. I read the headline.
00:16:42.799 --> 00:16:45.879
No, it's serious enough now to where you actually
00:16:45.879 --> 00:16:48.580
got to start digging in and doing due diligence
00:16:48.580 --> 00:16:52.440
because. It's clear we're going in a direction
00:16:52.440 --> 00:16:55.360
that is not palpable and good for all. Exactly.
00:16:55.580 --> 00:16:56.759
Like, what are you waiting for? You're waiting
00:16:56.759 --> 00:16:58.960
for your kid to be raped by some guy, and then
00:16:58.960 --> 00:17:01.200
he gets a shit sentence because the Democrats
00:17:01.200 --> 00:17:03.100
passed all these laws saying, oh, no, we're just
00:17:03.100 --> 00:17:08.720
less than the penalties for this. It's fine.
00:17:09.240 --> 00:17:11.519
Right. Six months, he raped your son. Go ahead
00:17:11.519 --> 00:17:12.839
and he's six months in jail. It's no problem.
00:17:13.220 --> 00:17:16.140
Click your mic in, dude. He's here. You're going
00:17:16.140 --> 00:17:18.420
to get more vigilante -ism, I think, going on.
00:17:19.270 --> 00:17:20.650
Well, yeah, but that's what I'm saying. What
00:17:20.650 --> 00:17:22.369
are they waiting for? World War III to happen?
00:17:22.509 --> 00:17:24.390
They're waiting for their fucking neighbor's
00:17:24.390 --> 00:17:26.009
kids to get raped? Like, what are they waiting
00:17:26.009 --> 00:17:30.130
on here? I don't know. Whatever it is, it's no
00:17:30.130 --> 00:17:37.150
bueno. There he is. Hello. How are you? I'm doing
00:17:37.150 --> 00:17:39.009
well, Chad. Thanks for having me. I apologize
00:17:39.009 --> 00:17:43.490
for the... Oh. Oh, no worries. Oh, you went...
00:17:43.490 --> 00:17:49.019
You're muted. Can't hear you. We heard you for
00:17:49.019 --> 00:17:53.880
a bit. Yeah. There we go. Does that work? Yes,
00:17:54.000 --> 00:17:57.700
sir. A little technical difficulty. I had to
00:17:57.700 --> 00:17:59.619
switch to the phone, but we got it working now.
00:17:59.799 --> 00:18:01.759
Oh, good. Well, hey, we appreciate you coming
00:18:01.759 --> 00:18:04.680
on here. This is a great honor for us. You're
00:18:04.680 --> 00:18:08.759
our first official politician, and we're excited
00:18:08.759 --> 00:18:12.799
about that. I am honored. I think this is your,
00:18:12.980 --> 00:18:17.450
what, 58th show? 58, yes. Last week was Heinz
00:18:17.450 --> 00:18:20.369
57. Yeah, I watched a little bit of that. I had
00:18:20.369 --> 00:18:24.849
to get up to speed. Yes. Well, if you keep the
00:18:24.849 --> 00:18:27.049
expectations low, I hopefully won't disappoint
00:18:27.049 --> 00:18:30.650
you. But anyway, keep working your way up the
00:18:30.650 --> 00:18:33.670
political ladder here. Mike, we were just going
00:18:33.670 --> 00:18:35.509
to kind of go over some of your stuff before
00:18:35.509 --> 00:18:37.529
you came on the show. And you've been on the
00:18:37.529 --> 00:18:40.109
right side of the coin for a bit now, dude. You're
00:18:40.109 --> 00:18:43.269
talking about term limits for politicians. You
00:18:43.269 --> 00:18:46.599
were. During the COVID -19 lockdowns, you wanted
00:18:46.599 --> 00:18:48.680
businesses to stay open and stuff like that.
00:18:48.700 --> 00:18:51.220
You had the foresight to realize all that stuff
00:18:51.220 --> 00:18:54.200
and maybe follow scientists and people that were
00:18:54.200 --> 00:18:56.920
reporting stuff that made sense to you and made
00:18:56.920 --> 00:18:59.960
sense economically and for the people and stuff
00:18:59.960 --> 00:19:03.420
like that. So I want to applaud you for doing
00:19:03.420 --> 00:19:08.079
that because we have so many people elected in
00:19:08.079 --> 00:19:11.240
the office that aren't. that do not have the
00:19:11.240 --> 00:19:15.720
American people's backs in the forefront. And
00:19:15.720 --> 00:19:18.779
it seems like you do, dude. So we want to applaud
00:19:18.779 --> 00:19:21.859
you and say thank you and re -elect Mr. Jones
00:19:21.859 --> 00:19:28.000
coming up. Well, yeah, thank you very much. It's
00:19:28.000 --> 00:19:30.819
frustrating up here in Harrisburg trying to actually
00:19:30.819 --> 00:19:33.200
get bills passed into law. And that's not always
00:19:33.200 --> 00:19:35.119
a bad thing, especially with the Democrats in
00:19:35.119 --> 00:19:38.240
control. because it's hard to undo a bad bill.
00:19:38.359 --> 00:19:41.720
But that part's been frustrating. But yeah, the
00:19:41.720 --> 00:19:44.559
thing I am most proud of is what you touched
00:19:44.559 --> 00:19:47.799
on, what we did during the tyrannical, un -American,
00:19:47.920 --> 00:19:51.299
unconstitutional lockdowns. We did something
00:19:51.299 --> 00:19:54.519
here in York County that I certainly wasn't alone,
00:19:54.759 --> 00:19:57.759
but I was the one spearheading it politically.
00:19:59.019 --> 00:20:02.440
We called it Reopen York. And to your point about...
00:20:03.480 --> 00:20:06.359
Two months or so into COVID, it became pretty
00:20:06.359 --> 00:20:08.680
apparent that these were just bureaucrats up
00:20:08.680 --> 00:20:10.500
here literally making things up as they were
00:20:10.500 --> 00:20:13.099
going along. We had a governor hiding in his
00:20:13.099 --> 00:20:16.519
basement, Governor Wolf at the time. And it became
00:20:16.519 --> 00:20:19.160
apparent that we were doing, not only was it
00:20:19.160 --> 00:20:21.400
totally unconstitutional from a freedom and liberty
00:20:21.400 --> 00:20:23.660
perspective, so that's first and foremost, telling
00:20:23.660 --> 00:20:27.200
businesses who can and can't open, who's essential
00:20:27.200 --> 00:20:29.359
and non -essential, telling people they can or
00:20:29.359 --> 00:20:32.180
can't. I ran into it. elderly woman at the time
00:20:32.180 --> 00:20:34.640
who just wanted to visit her husband at the graveyard
00:20:34.640 --> 00:20:37.539
and was afraid she wouldn't be able to do that.
00:20:37.619 --> 00:20:39.640
So it was totally un -American, but we also realized
00:20:39.640 --> 00:20:41.779
that we were destroying more lives than we were
00:20:41.779 --> 00:20:44.900
ever going to save. I'm all for protecting the
00:20:44.900 --> 00:20:50.420
elderly and the sick, but we've never, no. No
00:20:50.420 --> 00:20:55.180
adversary, be it biological, economical, militarily,
00:20:55.319 --> 00:20:58.019
has ever been defeated by grown, able -bodied
00:20:58.019 --> 00:20:59.920
men hiding in their basement, afraid to order
00:20:59.920 --> 00:21:02.099
a carryout. You know, you just can't live that
00:21:02.099 --> 00:21:04.799
way. You can't run a country that way. So our
00:21:04.799 --> 00:21:07.539
tagline was reopening saves lives, which I believe
00:21:07.539 --> 00:21:11.180
it did. And I will tell you, we had approximately
00:21:11.180 --> 00:21:15.460
300 businesses. Chad will be familiar with Round
00:21:15.460 --> 00:21:17.660
the Clock Diner here in York was the most prominent.
00:21:17.680 --> 00:21:19.839
It was featured on Fox News a number of times.
00:21:20.220 --> 00:21:22.599
The Saccarellis family demonstrated tremendous
00:21:22.599 --> 00:21:26.180
courage. But I, along with others, there's a
00:21:26.180 --> 00:21:28.500
group of about 10 of us from all different walks
00:21:28.500 --> 00:21:32.799
of life that created Reopen York. And we had
00:21:32.799 --> 00:21:35.480
about 300 businesses, give or take, that defied
00:21:35.480 --> 00:21:39.750
the governor's order, stayed open. None of them
00:21:39.750 --> 00:21:41.730
went to jail. None of them lost their license
00:21:41.730 --> 00:21:44.049
or closed their doors. And the vast majority
00:21:44.049 --> 00:21:46.329
of them didn't even pay fines. But you have to
00:21:46.329 --> 00:21:48.630
stand up and fight. So that's certainly one of
00:21:48.630 --> 00:21:50.950
the biggest accomplishments my six years in office.
00:21:51.670 --> 00:21:56.190
I was applauding Femi, Zacharyllis, and Round
00:21:56.190 --> 00:21:58.210
the Clock from California here where I was locked
00:21:58.210 --> 00:22:01.559
down. You guys didn't even worry about it. Yeah,
00:22:01.559 --> 00:22:03.880
well, I'm in Orange County, so it wasn't as bad
00:22:03.880 --> 00:22:06.619
as L .A., thank God. Yes. Yeah, Orange County
00:22:06.619 --> 00:22:08.140
is a little better from what I understand. But
00:22:08.140 --> 00:22:10.200
I had a doctor at the time, and that was another
00:22:10.200 --> 00:22:13.119
thing, not to belabor it. I had a number of doctors.
00:22:13.200 --> 00:22:14.920
I mean, I wasn't just shooting from the hip because,
00:22:15.000 --> 00:22:16.519
you know, it was a life and death kind of thing.
00:22:17.130 --> 00:22:19.890
I certainly didn't take the virus. We didn't
00:22:19.890 --> 00:22:21.789
take that lightly. But again, you have to take
00:22:21.789 --> 00:22:25.049
measured risk in life. But I had doctors off
00:22:25.049 --> 00:22:26.809
the record saying, you know, these masks are
00:22:26.809 --> 00:22:28.410
useless. It's not what they're intended for.
00:22:28.529 --> 00:22:30.089
And one of them, to your point, said closing
00:22:30.089 --> 00:22:32.769
down the beaches is exactly the opposite of what
00:22:32.769 --> 00:22:34.869
you should be doing. People should be getting
00:22:34.869 --> 00:22:37.569
sunshine, losing some weight, exercising, taking
00:22:37.569 --> 00:22:39.829
their vitamins. And he had a great statement
00:22:39.829 --> 00:22:42.109
that you guys will like, but he said strong people
00:22:42.109 --> 00:22:45.400
are harder to kill. And, you know, his whole
00:22:45.400 --> 00:22:47.660
point was this should be a wake up call. But
00:22:47.660 --> 00:22:49.279
then I would say, you know, well, can you go
00:22:49.279 --> 00:22:51.079
on Facebook and do an interview with me? And
00:22:51.079 --> 00:22:52.799
it's like, well, I can't do that because then
00:22:52.799 --> 00:22:55.700
I might get fired from these big hospital conglomerates.
00:22:55.720 --> 00:22:58.200
So that's a whole nother thing. Well, yeah, I
00:22:58.200 --> 00:23:00.720
mean, I would you would see a doctor or health
00:23:00.720 --> 00:23:04.019
care professional or, you know, someone that
00:23:04.019 --> 00:23:06.259
was way smarter than me coming out and giving
00:23:06.259 --> 00:23:09.380
a counter counterpoint to some of these. Lockdown
00:23:09.380 --> 00:23:11.740
policies and the masks and all this stuff, and
00:23:11.740 --> 00:23:13.799
those people were immediately censored, and I
00:23:13.799 --> 00:23:16.059
knew they're right. They're telling the truth
00:23:16.059 --> 00:23:21.180
because it's not going with the governments.
00:23:22.859 --> 00:23:24.519
Here's what we need to do. Here's what we need
00:23:24.519 --> 00:23:26.180
to do. We're doing this because of this. It's
00:23:26.180 --> 00:23:29.579
science, and these people will be censored right
00:23:29.579 --> 00:23:32.180
up. I just watched that happen real time the
00:23:32.180 --> 00:23:34.900
whole time because when I first heard about COVID,
00:23:34.940 --> 00:23:37.180
I started finding it's whatever I can on mortality
00:23:37.180 --> 00:23:40.319
rates on it. Just going on the internet, searching
00:23:40.319 --> 00:23:42.420
whatever I could find. And I could tell that
00:23:42.420 --> 00:23:46.099
it's not killing people. Like if it was killing
00:23:46.099 --> 00:23:48.920
like 20 % of people, it would be scary as hell.
00:23:49.039 --> 00:23:53.700
But it was killing 0 .001 % of the death rate.
00:23:53.819 --> 00:23:57.339
And the thing about it is like from 2019 to 2020,
00:23:57.500 --> 00:24:00.960
the overall death rates between those two years
00:24:00.960 --> 00:24:03.779
did not fluctuate. So you didn't lose more people
00:24:03.779 --> 00:24:08.809
in 2020 than you lost in 2019. It was all comorbidities
00:24:08.809 --> 00:24:10.710
and people that were going to die anyway, unfortunately.
00:24:10.890 --> 00:24:13.829
So it's just â it was just wild to watch. It's
00:24:13.829 --> 00:24:15.990
crazy. Yeah, a lot of it â sorry to interrupt
00:24:15.990 --> 00:24:18.329
you, Jay. For your viewers, you're familiar again
00:24:18.329 --> 00:24:21.630
being we're both from York, which I'm sure you've
00:24:21.630 --> 00:24:23.450
told people about an hour north of Baltimore.
00:24:23.930 --> 00:24:27.799
But right to our east â is Lancaster County,
00:24:27.960 --> 00:24:30.519
famous for the Pennsylvania Dutch or the Amish.
00:24:30.960 --> 00:24:33.039
We have a good many Amish in the southern part
00:24:33.039 --> 00:24:35.359
of York County now as well. But where that's
00:24:35.359 --> 00:24:37.519
relevant, and we had some Senate hearings. I'm
00:24:37.519 --> 00:24:39.119
in the House, but there was a couple of the senators,
00:24:39.220 --> 00:24:46.279
and they invited me over. And it was, oh, sheesh,
00:24:46.319 --> 00:24:48.539
everybody, I know his name almost like my own.
00:24:48.619 --> 00:24:50.440
But anyways, there's a prominent doctor, just
00:24:50.440 --> 00:24:55.509
brilliant. couple others. And the point being
00:24:55.509 --> 00:24:57.890
that this Amish community, and I actually at
00:24:57.890 --> 00:25:03.150
the time had visited an Amish leader in his home,
00:25:03.269 --> 00:25:06.710
and he was making the point at the time, he said,
00:25:06.869 --> 00:25:10.789
you know, the point being this is an isolated
00:25:10.789 --> 00:25:13.210
community, probably 30 ,000, 40 ,000 people,
00:25:13.369 --> 00:25:15.829
to my knowledge, none of whom, virtually none
00:25:15.829 --> 00:25:17.869
of whom wore masks, virtually none of whom were
00:25:17.869 --> 00:25:21.109
vaccinated. And as he said â now, I will say
00:25:21.109 --> 00:25:22.849
they're healthier than your average individual
00:25:22.849 --> 00:25:24.950
because they're out there working, and these
00:25:24.950 --> 00:25:26.750
are the folks that don't typically â generally
00:25:26.750 --> 00:25:29.529
don't use electricity or modern machinery. And
00:25:29.529 --> 00:25:31.190
they're eating the food they produce, not getting
00:25:31.190 --> 00:25:32.950
â Correct, and it's healthy food. I saw you guys
00:25:32.950 --> 00:25:34.630
talking about that last week, and amen to that.
00:25:34.750 --> 00:25:38.500
But the point was â I'm told it was virtually
00:25:38.500 --> 00:25:41.119
impossible to find anybody in the Amish community
00:25:41.119 --> 00:25:44.440
that had died from COVID. There were one or two
00:25:44.440 --> 00:25:47.680
that may have and or who may have died with COVID,
00:25:47.779 --> 00:25:51.359
to your point, two different things. And as this
00:25:51.359 --> 00:25:54.900
gentleman said, if this stuff is all accurate,
00:25:55.079 --> 00:25:57.240
not again, not saying COVID wasn't real, but
00:25:57.240 --> 00:25:58.819
he was saying, you know, the mask and all of
00:25:58.819 --> 00:26:00.500
these requirements. He said, you know, a third
00:26:00.500 --> 00:26:02.539
of I remember his exact words. He goes, a quarter
00:26:02.539 --> 00:26:05.599
of us should be in the grave. because they went
00:26:05.599 --> 00:26:08.599
about their business. The other thing, I don't
00:26:08.599 --> 00:26:10.420
know if you guys have delved into, and I don't
00:26:10.420 --> 00:26:13.700
claim to be an expert on it, but you look at
00:26:13.700 --> 00:26:15.900
all of the vaccines that we are pumping into
00:26:15.900 --> 00:26:19.259
kids at a very young age. I'm not necessarily
00:26:19.259 --> 00:26:21.220
in the extremists. There's some people that are
00:26:21.220 --> 00:26:24.440
in the totally anti -vax camp. I'm not smart
00:26:24.440 --> 00:26:26.599
enough to have a strong opinion on the specifics,
00:26:26.700 --> 00:26:29.140
but if you look at the list, I could send it
00:26:29.140 --> 00:26:31.019
to you if you're interested, but it's like 1960
00:26:31.019 --> 00:26:33.980
or 80, I forget what it was. The list of childhood
00:26:33.980 --> 00:26:36.500
vaccines is like this. 20 years later, it's like
00:26:36.500 --> 00:26:40.099
this. Now it's like huge. And common sense says,
00:26:40.160 --> 00:26:43.279
how much stuff do we need to pump in to a 10
00:26:43.279 --> 00:26:46.500
-pound child that quickly? And again, I'm not
00:26:46.500 --> 00:26:49.240
saying you throw it all out, but it seems very
00:26:49.240 --> 00:26:51.539
excessive, and there seems to be ties to autism
00:26:51.539 --> 00:26:54.099
and that kind of thing. But bottom line was COVID
00:26:54.099 --> 00:26:56.380
really separated the men from the boys, the wheat
00:26:56.380 --> 00:27:00.099
from the chaff, and we kind of saw who the real
00:27:00.099 --> 00:27:04.000
patriots were. who was willing to actually fight
00:27:04.000 --> 00:27:06.319
for freedom and liberty. And unfortunately, it
00:27:06.319 --> 00:27:10.019
was a disappointingly low number, but they were
00:27:10.019 --> 00:27:12.559
out there, and I met a lot of great people through
00:27:12.559 --> 00:27:15.740
that that I never would have met otherwise. Yeah.
00:27:15.819 --> 00:27:18.460
And by the way, back to the â I'm very familiar
00:27:18.460 --> 00:27:22.380
with childhood vaccines. My ex and I were on
00:27:22.380 --> 00:27:24.380
top of that when we had our first â when we had
00:27:24.380 --> 00:27:27.920
our son back in 2009 and all over that. I mean,
00:27:27.940 --> 00:27:29.670
yeah. baby comes out of the womb, they want to
00:27:29.670 --> 00:27:33.589
pump them with a hepatitis B vaccine. That's
00:27:33.589 --> 00:27:36.730
sexually transmitted. It's sexually transmitted.
00:27:36.789 --> 00:27:38.450
At six months, they want to give them a hepatitis
00:27:38.450 --> 00:27:41.069
B vaccine. We were like, no, no. Chickenpox is
00:27:41.069 --> 00:27:43.109
another one. I think we all survived chickenpox
00:27:43.109 --> 00:27:46.609
pretty well. Me too, for that matter. The quantities
00:27:46.609 --> 00:27:49.549
of it at such a small age. It's 79 now. It's
00:27:49.549 --> 00:27:51.990
79 vaccines by the time they're 18. That includes
00:27:51.990 --> 00:27:54.289
flu vaccines, which I would never take. But yeah,
00:27:54.390 --> 00:27:58.829
it's nuts. It's nuts. It's so easy to follow
00:27:58.829 --> 00:28:02.250
the data and use common sense and to actually
00:28:02.250 --> 00:28:05.029
talk about these things. But at the time you
00:28:05.029 --> 00:28:06.990
were taking a stand on this, Mike, it wasn't
00:28:06.990 --> 00:28:11.450
so easy to do so. It's really refreshing to realize
00:28:11.450 --> 00:28:13.890
that we do have politicians that weren't afraid
00:28:13.890 --> 00:28:17.630
to do that and really put their credibility on
00:28:17.630 --> 00:28:19.789
the line to do the right thing for the people.
00:28:20.329 --> 00:28:23.509
It's insane that so many people didn't do that
00:28:23.509 --> 00:28:26.160
and wanted to just... follow the narrative and
00:28:26.160 --> 00:28:29.200
not really follow common sense things that were
00:28:29.200 --> 00:28:31.880
the data was showing. So it's like the fact that
00:28:31.880 --> 00:28:34.180
we do have people like you out there is it, it
00:28:34.180 --> 00:28:37.559
feels, it feels good because we see so many politicians
00:28:37.559 --> 00:28:40.319
that don't have the American people's backs and
00:28:40.319 --> 00:28:42.960
are just trying to fend for themselves and do
00:28:42.960 --> 00:28:45.779
what, you know, is best for them and, and stuff
00:28:45.779 --> 00:28:48.200
like that. So really got to applaud you for,
00:28:48.259 --> 00:28:50.420
for, for handling the situation the way you did,
00:28:50.500 --> 00:28:52.720
man. Absolutely. I appreciate it. Yeah, I can.
00:28:53.240 --> 00:28:55.119
I remember a couple of you reminded me indirectly
00:28:55.119 --> 00:28:58.920
brought to mind a couple of articles in the local
00:28:58.920 --> 00:29:00.720
paper at the time. I remember the editorial board
00:29:00.720 --> 00:29:03.500
saying, don't listen to Mike Jones and definitely,
00:29:03.700 --> 00:29:06.579
you know, being villainized. But that's, you
00:29:06.579 --> 00:29:08.180
know, that goes to the Terry. You know, one thing
00:29:08.180 --> 00:29:13.119
I have found, guys, is and I am I'm surely not
00:29:13.119 --> 00:29:16.670
equating the two. But many of us, I'm guessing
00:29:16.670 --> 00:29:18.650
you too, although I don't know your exact backgrounds,
00:29:18.789 --> 00:29:22.089
but certainly myself, most Americans have never
00:29:22.089 --> 00:29:25.190
put on the uniform, much less faced actual combat.
00:29:26.470 --> 00:29:30.529
And obviously can't say enough about those that
00:29:30.529 --> 00:29:35.250
have. I'm 55 years old. I've lived a pretty charmed
00:29:35.250 --> 00:29:38.369
life as an American. People deal with individual
00:29:38.369 --> 00:29:41.000
tragedies, but most of it... Most of us have
00:29:41.000 --> 00:29:43.220
had it pretty darn good. We've never really seen
00:29:43.220 --> 00:29:45.900
more except for the aforementioned guys that
00:29:45.900 --> 00:29:50.019
have. We've never dealt with adverse poverty.
00:29:50.299 --> 00:29:54.500
We've been pretty pampered here. No real sacrifice.
00:29:55.119 --> 00:29:59.059
And what I concluded somewhere along the way
00:29:59.059 --> 00:30:03.700
back a few years back was this is â and again,
00:30:03.759 --> 00:30:05.799
I'm not equating it to taking bullets. Let me
00:30:05.799 --> 00:30:09.319
be very clear. This is, rather than wringing
00:30:09.319 --> 00:30:12.740
my hands and lamenting all of these things, this
00:30:12.740 --> 00:30:16.720
is an opportunity for me in my small way to actually
00:30:16.720 --> 00:30:20.200
fight for my country. And rather than, and I
00:30:20.200 --> 00:30:23.759
learned that it's kind of fun to fight. And the,
00:30:23.960 --> 00:30:28.279
especially for a guy like myself that hasn't
00:30:28.279 --> 00:30:33.420
actually fought in combat. It's like let's quit
00:30:33.420 --> 00:30:36.400
complaining about it and look at it as a true
00:30:36.400 --> 00:30:38.759
honor and privilege to stand up and fight for
00:30:38.759 --> 00:30:41.059
our country in whatever way we can. We all have
00:30:41.059 --> 00:30:44.759
a voice. We've got â everybody has different
00:30:44.759 --> 00:30:47.819
strengths. In my case, I've got a big mouth.
00:30:49.619 --> 00:30:52.799
But just like you guys are doing with your podcast.
00:30:53.710 --> 00:30:55.730
What I tell people is, look, we might win, we
00:30:55.730 --> 00:30:57.769
might lose, but I'm going to look myself in the
00:30:57.769 --> 00:30:59.789
eye and look my kids and look myself in the mirror
00:30:59.789 --> 00:31:01.670
and look my kids and grandkids in the eye and
00:31:01.670 --> 00:31:04.309
let them know that I did everything I could if
00:31:04.309 --> 00:31:06.569
we either won or we went down fighting one or
00:31:06.569 --> 00:31:09.390
the other. But I can live with both. Yeah, I
00:31:09.390 --> 00:31:11.589
mean, that's just like you said, that's one of
00:31:11.589 --> 00:31:13.170
the reasons we started the podcast to kind of
00:31:13.170 --> 00:31:15.529
give back in our little way. I have I did not
00:31:15.529 --> 00:31:17.509
serve. I have immense respect for the military
00:31:17.509 --> 00:31:20.690
and I'm a big military fan. I love all the equipment
00:31:20.690 --> 00:31:24.029
and all the stuff I know. That's nuts. ships
00:31:24.029 --> 00:31:26.029
and all that stuff but anyway we don't need to
00:31:26.029 --> 00:31:28.390
get into that but yeah i i i feel the same way
00:31:28.390 --> 00:31:30.490
like you're you're doing on a different level
00:31:30.490 --> 00:31:33.029
with being a you know state representative we
00:31:33.029 --> 00:31:35.789
we started the podcast to do kind of you know
00:31:35.789 --> 00:31:37.650
give back and let people know what's going on
00:31:37.650 --> 00:31:42.809
and try to open eyes basically yeah so uh it
00:31:42.809 --> 00:31:45.650
just i appreciate you doing it And it evolved
00:31:45.650 --> 00:31:47.769
into this because we realized so many people
00:31:47.769 --> 00:31:51.049
didn't have a voice and didn't have a say during
00:31:51.049 --> 00:31:53.069
the time when we were trying to do this and stuff
00:31:53.069 --> 00:31:55.049
like that. And we were like, we got nothing to
00:31:55.049 --> 00:31:57.710
lose, but we could maybe raise some awareness
00:31:57.710 --> 00:31:59.930
and shed some light onto some of these things.
00:32:00.029 --> 00:32:02.890
So, you know, trying to fight the good fight.
00:32:02.970 --> 00:32:05.250
But, you know, for somebody like you, that's
00:32:05.250 --> 00:32:08.890
in office and voted into, we were looking at
00:32:08.890 --> 00:32:11.329
your Wikipedia page, sir. And it seems like you
00:32:11.329 --> 00:32:15.029
at one point. We're on the Democratic side of
00:32:15.029 --> 00:32:17.650
things, and now you switched over to Republican
00:32:17.650 --> 00:32:21.599
somewhere along the line. Is that true? No, that
00:32:21.599 --> 00:32:24.119
is not accurate. I've been a lifelong Republican.
00:32:24.339 --> 00:32:26.640
I've done a couple things mainly on criminal
00:32:26.640 --> 00:32:28.920
justice reform that have been bipartisan, working
00:32:28.920 --> 00:32:32.220
with a couple Democrat colleagues from Philadelphia.
00:32:32.480 --> 00:32:33.940
But no, I've been a pretty staunch conservative
00:32:33.940 --> 00:32:37.000
most of my life. I was in business most of my
00:32:37.000 --> 00:32:40.559
career. Unfortunately, a lot of the issue with
00:32:40.559 --> 00:32:43.259
politics is for many people it's the best job
00:32:43.259 --> 00:32:45.619
they'll ever have, and they're protecting the
00:32:45.619 --> 00:32:49.660
job rather than doing the job. That was never
00:32:49.660 --> 00:32:51.500
how it was intended, you know, and especially
00:32:51.500 --> 00:32:54.059
here in Pennsylvania, the Keystone State with
00:32:54.059 --> 00:33:00.319
Ben Franklin and, you know, shoot, who's the
00:33:00.319 --> 00:33:01.900
guy I'm trying to think of? Who was the one that
00:33:01.900 --> 00:33:03.940
fought slavery in the Lincoln movie? In any event,
00:33:04.000 --> 00:33:05.839
it'll come to Thaddeus Stevens and so many great
00:33:05.839 --> 00:33:11.839
Americans. You know, it was intended for whether
00:33:11.839 --> 00:33:14.859
it's business people, military people, bankers,
00:33:14.880 --> 00:33:17.970
lawyers, you know. Hopefully not too many of
00:33:17.970 --> 00:33:21.049
them. But no, anyway, you know, would go to Harrisburg
00:33:21.049 --> 00:33:24.670
in this case or Washington, make law, go home
00:33:24.670 --> 00:33:26.789
and go back to work. It was never intended to
00:33:26.789 --> 00:33:30.849
be a career. And that's part of the problem is
00:33:30.849 --> 00:33:33.930
a lot of people believe the right things. Some
00:33:33.930 --> 00:33:35.769
of them aren't quite as conservative as they
00:33:35.769 --> 00:33:38.049
advertise. But a lot of them, the problem I've
00:33:38.049 --> 00:33:40.269
seen, I don't mind people who disagree with me.
00:33:41.000 --> 00:33:43.579
You know, I'm staunchly pro -life. I've adopted
00:33:43.579 --> 00:33:46.319
my wife and I adopted four children. But I hate
00:33:46.319 --> 00:33:48.380
there's room under the Republican tent for pro
00:33:48.380 --> 00:33:51.420
-choice. You know, it's a big tent, as Reagan
00:33:51.420 --> 00:33:53.480
said. You know, I may not agree with you on everything.
00:33:53.599 --> 00:33:56.819
I might not write you a check, but we need to
00:33:56.819 --> 00:33:58.880
be a big tent. By the way, we need to do a much
00:33:58.880 --> 00:34:00.779
better job. And I think we're making inroads,
00:34:00.839 --> 00:34:03.380
thanks in large part to Trump with the black
00:34:03.380 --> 00:34:06.359
and Latino communities, many of whom are Republican
00:34:06.359 --> 00:34:11.510
and don't realize it. But the point is, what
00:34:11.510 --> 00:34:14.949
irritates me is not that people don't agree with
00:34:14.949 --> 00:34:18.670
me. I think the problem is, A, we've lost the
00:34:18.670 --> 00:34:23.909
art of cordial but sometimes fierce and intense
00:34:23.909 --> 00:34:27.769
debate. It's not about agreeing. It's being able
00:34:27.769 --> 00:34:32.329
to disagree passionately but civilly. And also,
00:34:32.389 --> 00:34:35.710
what's really irritating is... A lot of these
00:34:35.710 --> 00:34:37.429
folks believe the right things, but they lack
00:34:37.429 --> 00:34:40.090
the courage or their conviction to act upon it.
00:34:40.849 --> 00:34:44.550
COVID was a great example of that. Hey, that's
00:34:44.550 --> 00:34:47.570
great stuff you're doing. We agree. You want
00:34:47.570 --> 00:34:49.869
to come join me? Well, no, I don't think we want
00:34:49.869 --> 00:34:53.010
to do that. And you see that certain bills and
00:34:53.010 --> 00:34:55.190
so forth, they believe one thing and vote another
00:34:55.190 --> 00:34:57.309
or just don't even put it up for a vote. They
00:34:57.309 --> 00:34:59.289
like to avoid tough votes and that sort of thing
00:34:59.289 --> 00:35:01.730
because it's about the election. Well, now you
00:35:01.730 --> 00:35:05.929
have the Democrats. basically doing the lawfare
00:35:05.929 --> 00:35:09.090
on their opponents i mean they did it famously
00:35:09.090 --> 00:35:12.309
to trump on a grand scale but they're doing it
00:35:12.309 --> 00:35:14.090
to the everyday guy too the person that shows
00:35:14.090 --> 00:35:16.309
up to the school board meeting and you know they're
00:35:16.309 --> 00:35:18.090
being labeled as domestic terrorists because
00:35:18.090 --> 00:35:19.690
they don't agree with the freaking school board
00:35:19.690 --> 00:35:21.849
it's like what you know what's going on in this
00:35:21.849 --> 00:35:23.769
country i mean it's happening on a local level
00:35:23.769 --> 00:35:26.389
to the lawfare i mean i know a gentleman that's
00:35:26.389 --> 00:35:30.869
being you know unfairly prosecuted for a bunch
00:35:30.869 --> 00:35:35.530
of bullshit yeah it's it's literally Lawfare,
00:35:35.530 --> 00:35:38.929
it's just wild to watch how the justice, especially
00:35:38.929 --> 00:35:41.769
the U .S. Justice Department now goes after any
00:35:41.769 --> 00:35:44.469
political enemies. It is frigging nuts. They're
00:35:44.469 --> 00:35:48.269
doing raids on Catholic priests' frigging houses
00:35:48.269 --> 00:35:52.789
with guns because they did a sit -in at an abortion
00:35:52.789 --> 00:35:55.750
clinic. What is going on? Is that happening,
00:35:55.869 --> 00:35:58.489
to your point, on kind of the state level in
00:35:58.489 --> 00:36:01.219
Pennsylvania? Have you noticed any of that? There's
00:36:01.219 --> 00:36:02.800
certainly some examples of that. I mean, you're
00:36:02.800 --> 00:36:05.360
correct. I mean, this this is no longer Republican
00:36:05.360 --> 00:36:08.519
and Democrat who are good American loving people
00:36:08.519 --> 00:36:12.719
who just disagree on some things. Right. These
00:36:12.719 --> 00:36:15.860
in many cases on the left are socialist, that
00:36:15.860 --> 00:36:18.000
they're not Democrats. And actually, many of
00:36:18.000 --> 00:36:20.159
the reasonable Democrats have been pushed out
00:36:20.159 --> 00:36:24.079
in primaries by socialists. You know, they're
00:36:24.079 --> 00:36:26.340
not worried about general elections in some of
00:36:26.340 --> 00:36:27.920
these areas, but they're being attacked from
00:36:27.920 --> 00:36:32.059
the left. It's mind -boggling to me how you can
00:36:32.059 --> 00:36:34.099
look at what, in my mind, and I've been blessed
00:36:34.099 --> 00:36:36.760
not to the extent you did, Chad, but I was blessed
00:36:36.760 --> 00:36:40.280
through business to travel a significant amount
00:36:40.280 --> 00:36:43.179
of international travel around the world. And
00:36:43.179 --> 00:36:45.900
even some of the best countries in the world,
00:36:46.179 --> 00:36:48.739
nothing â there is no close second to America.
00:36:50.059 --> 00:36:55.000
And it's the greatest â and why you want to change
00:36:55.000 --> 00:36:57.739
it. I'm not talking about improving or evolving.
00:36:58.909 --> 00:37:02.489
We want to mimic countries who are inferior to
00:37:02.489 --> 00:37:05.929
us, systems that are inferior. I mean, it's crazy.
00:37:06.090 --> 00:37:09.030
And what you see, so to your point, you certainly
00:37:09.030 --> 00:37:11.869
see that in some of the bigger Democrat -controlled
00:37:11.869 --> 00:37:13.590
cities. You know, we've got a district attorney
00:37:13.590 --> 00:37:16.269
over in Philadelphia. We tried to impeach him.
00:37:16.800 --> 00:37:19.820
who just chooses not to enforce many of the laws.
00:37:20.480 --> 00:37:23.280
To your point, there's all kinds between the
00:37:23.280 --> 00:37:26.840
media and weaponizing the legal system and attorney
00:37:26.840 --> 00:37:28.940
generals, you know, deciding who they're going
00:37:28.940 --> 00:37:32.440
to prosecute and not. They have total disregard
00:37:32.440 --> 00:37:35.420
for the Constitution. It's all about clinging
00:37:35.420 --> 00:37:37.559
to power. They totally violated the Constitution.
00:37:37.920 --> 00:37:40.820
Here we have our big problem here is the state
00:37:40.820 --> 00:37:44.949
Supreme Court. So through redistricting, we went
00:37:44.949 --> 00:37:49.130
from 113 to 90 majority down to a one -seat minority
00:37:49.130 --> 00:37:52.190
in the House, almost exclusively based on how
00:37:52.190 --> 00:37:55.329
they drew the maps, which anybody, any reasonable
00:37:55.329 --> 00:37:57.889
individual would see was a blatant violation
00:37:57.889 --> 00:38:00.190
of the state constitution, how they drew those
00:38:00.190 --> 00:38:04.969
maps. So there's another example. The ends justify
00:38:04.969 --> 00:38:09.190
the means. Chad, if the Constitution is helpful
00:38:09.190 --> 00:38:12.449
for them, they'll use it. If not, they will ignore
00:38:12.449 --> 00:38:15.150
it. Legislating from the bench is one of the
00:38:15.150 --> 00:38:18.269
single biggest threats to our republic that few
00:38:18.269 --> 00:38:22.389
people talk about. And lastly, here on a state
00:38:22.389 --> 00:38:26.230
scale, we should be an economic powerhouse. Pennsylvania
00:38:26.230 --> 00:38:29.550
exports far more energy than we produce. We might
00:38:29.550 --> 00:38:31.670
have potholes, but we have a lot of roads. We
00:38:31.670 --> 00:38:34.960
have fantasticâ I used to be in the supply chain
00:38:34.960 --> 00:38:38.719
world, the company I ran. We have great logistics.
00:38:38.980 --> 00:38:44.260
We're located near huge population centers. We've
00:38:44.260 --> 00:38:47.019
got ports. We've got everything. We've got some
00:38:47.019 --> 00:38:48.699
of the most diverse industry in the country.
00:38:48.719 --> 00:38:50.940
We've got skilled machinists in places like here
00:38:50.940 --> 00:38:55.360
in York. Yet we are consistently 38th, oftentimes
00:38:55.360 --> 00:39:00.619
45th, 46th in economic. development because of
00:39:00.619 --> 00:39:03.960
these socialistic policies. The tax policy is
00:39:03.960 --> 00:39:06.500
terrible. The regulatory you talk about lawfare.
00:39:06.679 --> 00:39:10.119
I've got a farmer here. who is being currently
00:39:10.119 --> 00:39:13.280
just totally harassed by the Department of Environmental
00:39:13.280 --> 00:39:15.900
Protection. He literally, I won't bore you with
00:39:15.900 --> 00:39:17.840
the details, but the gist of it was he had a
00:39:17.840 --> 00:39:19.820
quote wetland that wasn't staying wet. It was
00:39:19.820 --> 00:39:22.400
nothing but a big mosquito haven. So he planted
00:39:22.400 --> 00:39:24.599
about a third of an acre, one third of an acre.
00:39:24.659 --> 00:39:27.099
It's just a piece of his backyard with pristine
00:39:27.099 --> 00:39:31.079
grass. And they now want to take two and a half
00:39:31.079 --> 00:39:36.179
acres of his land and find him and impose other.
00:39:37.119 --> 00:39:40.119
fees and legal costs and you know excavation
00:39:40.119 --> 00:39:41.900
it's going to cost him four hundred thousand
00:39:41.900 --> 00:39:44.880
dollars or more will be a half a million for
00:39:44.880 --> 00:39:48.000
planting grass not paving it not dumping motor
00:39:48.000 --> 00:39:52.619
oil for planting pristine grass in his backyard
00:39:52.619 --> 00:39:55.659
because these bureaucrats have so much power
00:39:56.230 --> 00:39:59.469
uh to hold to lord over people um and you know
00:39:59.469 --> 00:40:01.710
it's like they say absolute power corrupts absolutely
00:40:01.710 --> 00:40:03.630
and they'll do whatever they need to do to stay
00:40:03.630 --> 00:40:06.030
in power so we were growing smaller older and
00:40:06.030 --> 00:40:08.849
poorer here in pennsylvania uh literally by the
00:40:08.849 --> 00:40:13.489
day and nobody uh nobody uh seems to care and
00:40:13.489 --> 00:40:15.969
realize we're going to be in a real crisis particularly
00:40:15.969 --> 00:40:18.849
taking care of our elderly uh as the baby boomers
00:40:18.849 --> 00:40:21.849
continue to age and live longer than ever so
00:40:21.849 --> 00:40:24.440
sorry for the long answer that's all right It's
00:40:24.440 --> 00:40:26.860
really a big, big problem. Well, you touched
00:40:26.860 --> 00:40:30.360
on the environment and these environmental protection
00:40:30.360 --> 00:40:34.059
agencies, and they go after the law -abiding
00:40:34.059 --> 00:40:37.320
citizens that have some little snafu like that
00:40:37.320 --> 00:40:40.820
farmer. Especially in Los Angeles, I watched
00:40:40.820 --> 00:40:42.300
this whole report where they're talking about
00:40:42.300 --> 00:40:46.099
the homeless situation there. They have all these
00:40:46.099 --> 00:40:49.900
RVs and tents and all this shit set up, and the
00:40:49.900 --> 00:40:53.460
RVs literally are â taking their sewage they're
00:40:53.460 --> 00:40:55.659
shitting and pissing in the rv they're just running
00:40:55.659 --> 00:40:57.659
a tube right into the sewer that goes right to
00:40:57.659 --> 00:41:00.199
the ocean they don't say anything about that
00:41:00.199 --> 00:41:03.280
if if a company or a law -abiding citizen like
00:41:03.280 --> 00:41:05.260
like farmers for instance for the runoff they'll
00:41:05.260 --> 00:41:08.079
go after them but they won't go after these homeless
00:41:08.079 --> 00:41:10.079
people and clean this up or they're letting raw
00:41:10.079 --> 00:41:12.760
sewage go into the right into the pristine ocean
00:41:12.760 --> 00:41:15.699
in california where you know they're all about
00:41:15.699 --> 00:41:18.159
the environment and climate change and all these
00:41:18.159 --> 00:41:21.389
crazy things but like you'll just let The homeless
00:41:21.389 --> 00:41:23.329
people will just shit into the ocean, but there's
00:41:23.329 --> 00:41:25.250
no problem. Don't worry about it. It's do as
00:41:25.250 --> 00:41:28.090
they say, not as they do. In that case, those
00:41:28.090 --> 00:41:30.369
are prospective donors for that â or not donors,
00:41:30.429 --> 00:41:33.690
voters in that case for them. Another great example,
00:41:33.969 --> 00:41:36.710
I just did a really fascinating tour a few days
00:41:36.710 --> 00:41:39.050
ago of the â I don't even know what you would
00:41:39.050 --> 00:41:41.969
call it. It's kind of like an independent entity.
00:41:42.090 --> 00:41:45.070
It's not a private business per se, but it manages
00:41:45.070 --> 00:41:46.969
the whole power grid here in the Northeast, which
00:41:46.969 --> 00:41:49.010
in and of itself you guys would find that fascinating.
00:41:50.730 --> 00:41:54.190
You know, a lot of these â think about this,
00:41:54.289 --> 00:41:57.690
the cost of energy. Most of these people that
00:41:57.690 --> 00:42:00.710
are yelling for green energy, much of which cannot
00:42:00.710 --> 00:42:02.769
compete. It's one thing if it was competitive.
00:42:03.070 --> 00:42:05.489
Now nuclear is green, but I'm talking wind, which
00:42:05.489 --> 00:42:09.449
is pretty much a joke, and solar is not a whole
00:42:09.449 --> 00:42:14.010
lot better. Who is it that wants this clean air?
00:42:14.269 --> 00:42:16.469
It's not poor people. It's the wealthy elites,
00:42:16.590 --> 00:42:18.960
most of whom â Don't have to deal with any of
00:42:18.960 --> 00:42:20.820
this in their backyard. You know, you talk about
00:42:20.820 --> 00:42:22.719
putting windmills like they did a number of years
00:42:22.719 --> 00:42:25.619
ago in Martha's Vineyard or or a bunch of solar
00:42:25.619 --> 00:42:29.059
panels, you know, and somebody's, you know, that's
00:42:29.059 --> 00:42:30.780
going to interrupt their view. Oh, well, that's
00:42:30.780 --> 00:42:33.039
a different story. Right. You know, then it then
00:42:33.039 --> 00:42:35.739
it's then they've got a problem with it. The
00:42:35.739 --> 00:42:40.739
same thing with energy costs, you know, and I
00:42:40.739 --> 00:42:43.559
was thinking just the other day between most
00:42:43.559 --> 00:42:46.460
poor people. are for all intents and purposes
00:42:46.460 --> 00:42:49.239
confined to about a 30, 40 -mile radius of their
00:42:49.239 --> 00:42:51.860
home. Yes, they could spring for a vacation,
00:42:52.000 --> 00:42:54.559
you know, once a year. But think about it. Between
00:42:54.559 --> 00:42:56.539
the cost of gas, and it's certainly here in Pennsylvania
00:42:56.539 --> 00:43:01.320
where we live, the cost of tolls, a 400 - or
00:43:01.320 --> 00:43:03.480
500 -mile trip, you know, if you want to go out
00:43:03.480 --> 00:43:05.739
to Ohio, go to Cedar Point Amusement Park as
00:43:05.739 --> 00:43:09.340
an example, a pretty modest vacation, come back
00:43:09.340 --> 00:43:14.070
here to York. You're going to spend... Hundreds,
00:43:14.070 --> 00:43:16.829
many, many hundreds of dollars between gas and
00:43:16.829 --> 00:43:19.889
tolls on that trip. You know, it's poor people
00:43:19.889 --> 00:43:22.309
that pay the price for some of these kind of
00:43:22.309 --> 00:43:25.190
feel good initiatives. You know, if gas goes
00:43:25.190 --> 00:43:27.750
up 50 cents a gallon on guys like us, we don't
00:43:27.750 --> 00:43:29.769
like it, but it's not the end of the world. But
00:43:29.769 --> 00:43:31.969
a lot of these people are, you know, not literally,
00:43:32.030 --> 00:43:36.489
but they're effectively almost confined. You
00:43:36.489 --> 00:43:39.150
know, to a 50, 100 mile radius of where they
00:43:39.150 --> 00:43:42.409
live. You know, it's that expensive when you
00:43:42.409 --> 00:43:44.250
don't have, when you're on a tight budget, you
00:43:44.250 --> 00:43:47.309
know. But it's mostly, they're not the ones clamoring
00:43:47.309 --> 00:43:49.329
for this. It's the wealthy elites who don't,
00:43:49.329 --> 00:43:51.630
you know, that are hidden behind their gated
00:43:51.630 --> 00:43:53.630
community and hidden behind their keyboard. You
00:43:53.630 --> 00:43:56.030
know, these keyboard warriors. Yeah, they all
00:43:56.030 --> 00:43:57.710
have walls around them and they're all flying
00:43:57.710 --> 00:43:59.349
their private jets wherever they want to go.
00:43:59.449 --> 00:44:02.110
Exactly. And they're yelling at you for, oh,
00:44:02.150 --> 00:44:04.010
you got to have an electric car and you can't
00:44:04.010 --> 00:44:05.949
eat meat and you can't. to grow your own food
00:44:05.949 --> 00:44:08.170
because that's bad for the environment but i'm
00:44:08.170 --> 00:44:11.530
gonna fly my private jet to you know davos and
00:44:11.530 --> 00:44:14.269
whatever the fuck else i need to go yeah hypocrisy
00:44:14.269 --> 00:44:16.710
through the young kids over there in africa digging
00:44:16.710 --> 00:44:18.670
into mines for the lithium for the batteries
00:44:18.670 --> 00:44:21.780
exactly you know you yeah These people that say
00:44:21.780 --> 00:44:23.780
they care about poor people, my experience has
00:44:23.780 --> 00:44:26.559
been that the conservatives and a lot in the
00:44:26.559 --> 00:44:28.679
Christian community in particular do a lot more
00:44:28.679 --> 00:44:30.719
for the needy than most of these on the left.
00:44:30.780 --> 00:44:32.980
I'm not saying down to a person by any stretch,
00:44:33.099 --> 00:44:35.139
but there's good and bad on each side. But a
00:44:35.139 --> 00:44:37.500
lot of this is nothing but. pointing fingers
00:44:37.500 --> 00:44:39.920
and blaming other people. Most of these people
00:44:39.920 --> 00:44:42.539
rarely lift a finger to inconvenience themselves.
00:44:43.000 --> 00:44:45.219
Like you said, they're telling us about saving
00:44:45.219 --> 00:44:48.139
the environment while they're flying in on their
00:44:48.139 --> 00:44:50.079
jet or driving in on their limo that gets three
00:44:50.079 --> 00:44:52.679
miles to the gallon to tell us about it. Exactly.
00:44:52.719 --> 00:44:55.679
It's crazy that you could just say, oh, I am
00:44:55.679 --> 00:44:59.440
for the poor people, but everything I do and
00:44:59.440 --> 00:45:03.059
bills I put are not for the poor people. Exactly.
00:45:03.739 --> 00:45:06.429
It's all talking. It's all lip service. Yeah,
00:45:06.429 --> 00:45:09.150
but it's just like and it's almost it's shame
00:45:09.150 --> 00:45:12.210
on us, though, for for not being wise. It's shame
00:45:12.210 --> 00:45:14.530
on for the people doing it. But it's also shame
00:45:14.530 --> 00:45:16.949
on us now for, you know, putting up with it so
00:45:16.949 --> 00:45:19.489
long and still electing these same people. It's
00:45:19.489 --> 00:45:22.070
like, you know, we can't complain about it and
00:45:22.070 --> 00:45:24.809
then keep electing them. And because nothing
00:45:24.809 --> 00:45:27.690
gets done that way. So it's like we can't just
00:45:27.690 --> 00:45:30.650
have people saying things, doing something else
00:45:30.650 --> 00:45:33.590
and then complaining about it and keep voting
00:45:33.590 --> 00:45:35.650
them in because it's like. That's that cycle
00:45:35.650 --> 00:45:38.030
that never ends, and we keep getting this swamp
00:45:38.030 --> 00:45:41.070
of people that we have that don't have our backs.
00:45:42.389 --> 00:45:44.869
And a lot of people aren't bold enough, particularly
00:45:44.869 --> 00:45:47.150
on the Republican side, to speak up and come
00:45:47.150 --> 00:45:52.250
out against it. Why aren't â the Democrats take
00:45:52.250 --> 00:45:54.710
the black vote and to a large extent the Hispanic
00:45:54.710 --> 00:45:57.650
vote for granted, but we ignore them many times.
00:45:57.929 --> 00:46:00.369
Don't ignore â we have a winning message, but
00:46:00.369 --> 00:46:01.989
you've got to deliver that message. You've got
00:46:01.989 --> 00:46:05.730
to be bold. And that's that's a lot of the reason
00:46:05.730 --> 00:46:08.050
Trump is making some inroads there is I wish
00:46:08.050 --> 00:46:11.469
he would push it even harder than he did. But,
00:46:11.610 --> 00:46:14.349
you know, it used to be most Republican candidates
00:46:14.349 --> 00:46:17.309
for president would go give one feel good speech
00:46:17.309 --> 00:46:20.969
down to the NAACP kid glove them and nobody is
00:46:20.969 --> 00:46:23.179
going to vote for him. You know, Trump, if you
00:46:23.179 --> 00:46:25.119
remember, was at six, eight years ago, said,
00:46:25.239 --> 00:46:28.059
you know, what do you have to lose? You know,
00:46:28.059 --> 00:46:30.900
you know, and he actually has gone. I think he
00:46:30.900 --> 00:46:33.400
should go after it even stronger and call them
00:46:33.400 --> 00:46:37.960
out for a lot of this hypocrisy. But but he doesn't
00:46:37.960 --> 00:46:40.500
always deliver it as gracefully as some might
00:46:40.500 --> 00:46:42.880
want him to. But he talks to real people and
00:46:42.880 --> 00:46:45.320
he's produced real results. And I think I pray
00:46:45.320 --> 00:46:47.340
that people are starting to see through it, because
00:46:47.340 --> 00:46:49.739
if we lose this election, I don't I don't see
00:46:49.739 --> 00:46:52.590
how. I don't see how we survive much longer.
00:46:52.590 --> 00:46:55.570
Elon was just on Tucker talking about that. We
00:46:55.570 --> 00:46:58.329
lose this election. They're going to naturalize
00:46:58.329 --> 00:47:00.389
all those millions and millions and millions
00:47:00.389 --> 00:47:02.469
of frigging people they left in over the border
00:47:02.469 --> 00:47:06.389
with the borders are. And then they're going
00:47:06.389 --> 00:47:08.510
to have a majority. They're going to have the
00:47:08.510 --> 00:47:12.769
votes to basically drown out Republicans forever.
00:47:13.739 --> 00:47:15.360
Yeah. Well, and they just keep buying votes.
00:47:15.500 --> 00:47:17.800
You know, when you get 50 some percent, almost
00:47:17.800 --> 00:47:19.619
when you get to a point, you got, you know, 50
00:47:19.619 --> 00:47:21.619
% or more that are relying on the government
00:47:21.619 --> 00:47:24.599
through various, you know, welfare programs.
00:47:24.699 --> 00:47:26.019
And I use that and there's plenty of corporate
00:47:26.019 --> 00:47:28.480
welfare that needs to end too. And I'm not talking
00:47:28.480 --> 00:47:30.519
about helping the poorest of the poor and the
00:47:30.519 --> 00:47:32.079
weakest of the, you know, we're wealthy enough.
00:47:32.119 --> 00:47:33.719
We help the people that need it, but they're
00:47:33.719 --> 00:47:36.239
buying votes. You know, I mean, when you're,
00:47:36.239 --> 00:47:39.940
when your national debt equals your GDP and you're
00:47:39.940 --> 00:47:41.980
talking about, well, let's just give people $25
00:47:41.980 --> 00:47:44.670
,000 to buy. buy a home or let's pay off their
00:47:44.670 --> 00:47:47.670
college right where does that that money by definition
00:47:47.670 --> 00:47:51.289
doesn't exist all you can do is print it you
00:47:51.289 --> 00:47:54.849
know um and but it's literally buying votes with
00:47:54.849 --> 00:47:57.789
money that we don't have but again it's all about
00:47:57.789 --> 00:48:00.809
retaining power yeah and in biden's case he just
00:48:00.809 --> 00:48:02.449
keeps saying they're going to pay for these student
00:48:02.449 --> 00:48:04.530
deaths but in the supreme court i think it was
00:48:04.530 --> 00:48:06.409
twice now they've ruled against it and said it's
00:48:06.409 --> 00:48:08.449
that's illegal yeah you can't do that and he
00:48:08.449 --> 00:48:12.639
just ignores it yeah And then, you know, it's
00:48:12.639 --> 00:48:14.639
like wild to watch the Democrats just ignore
00:48:14.639 --> 00:48:17.400
the Supreme Court. And they're like, yeah, we
00:48:17.400 --> 00:48:18.960
got to pack the Supreme Court. We got to put
00:48:18.960 --> 00:48:22.280
more people in. It's like it's just. It's just
00:48:22.280 --> 00:48:24.840
mind -boggling to watch them operate. It's a
00:48:24.840 --> 00:48:26.500
great example. It's just like the Constitution.
00:48:26.960 --> 00:48:29.440
Like I said earlier, if it doesn't say what they
00:48:29.440 --> 00:48:31.579
want it to say, they ignore it. They can't win
00:48:31.579 --> 00:48:33.719
elections here in Pennsylvania, so they redraw
00:48:33.719 --> 00:48:37.980
the maps. And it's the ends justify the means,
00:48:38.079 --> 00:48:40.179
and your point on the Supreme Court is a great
00:48:40.179 --> 00:48:43.079
example. I'm dumbfounded by that, to your point.
00:48:43.119 --> 00:48:44.739
Well, we're just going to ignore what they said.
00:48:45.300 --> 00:48:48.940
I mean â I mean if the Republicans did that,
00:48:49.039 --> 00:48:51.699
if the Republicans â If Trump, for instance,
00:48:51.780 --> 00:48:53.880
did that, just ignore the Supreme Court, you
00:48:53.880 --> 00:48:56.340
would never hear the freaking end of it in the
00:48:56.340 --> 00:48:59.139
MSM. They would just â they were covered ad nauseum.
00:48:59.500 --> 00:49:01.519
He's defying the Supreme Court. He's a dictator,
00:49:01.820 --> 00:49:03.239
blah, blah, blah. That's all you would hear.
00:49:03.579 --> 00:49:07.579
But Biden does it. No problem. Well, you guys
00:49:07.579 --> 00:49:09.400
know the Edmund Burke quote, all that's necessary
00:49:09.400 --> 00:49:11.559
for evil to triumph is enough good men to do
00:49:11.559 --> 00:49:13.139
nothing. And that's what happens, particularly
00:49:13.139 --> 00:49:15.559
on the conservative side. We're not going to
00:49:15.559 --> 00:49:18.659
lose our nation because the other side has a
00:49:18.659 --> 00:49:20.539
winning message or that they're stronger than
00:49:20.539 --> 00:49:24.260
we are. We're going to lose it because of good
00:49:24.260 --> 00:49:27.000
men and women doing nothing. And it only takes
00:49:27.000 --> 00:49:29.239
something like 10 percent of the people dedicated
00:49:29.239 --> 00:49:31.780
to the cause, which you have about 10 percent
00:49:31.780 --> 00:49:34.579
radicals, that can change an entire nation. I
00:49:34.579 --> 00:49:37.780
mean, that's like. just fact um and if we don't
00:49:37.780 --> 00:49:40.659
start standing up and fighting um we're gonna
00:49:40.659 --> 00:49:43.300
have it's like you know death by a thousand cuts
00:49:43.300 --> 00:49:45.500
it's like a socialist blitzkrieg coming at us
00:49:45.500 --> 00:49:47.440
and they one thing about them they do what they
00:49:47.440 --> 00:49:51.099
say they're gonna do yeah they do that yeah do
00:49:51.099 --> 00:49:52.679
you ever see that interview with the russian
00:49:52.679 --> 00:49:55.619
kgb officer back in the 80s talking about how
00:49:55.619 --> 00:49:57.880
they were going to infiltrate all the all the
00:49:57.880 --> 00:50:01.340
uh colleges and learning institutions and basically
00:50:01.340 --> 00:50:04.099
that's how they were going to you know Bring
00:50:04.099 --> 00:50:06.880
in socialism and communism. I believe so. I believe
00:50:06.880 --> 00:50:09.159
so. I know Khrushchev going way back before our
00:50:09.159 --> 00:50:11.380
times said that he would destroy America from
00:50:11.380 --> 00:50:13.860
within. And I think it was in a similar vein
00:50:13.860 --> 00:50:16.860
to â yeah, which is what we're seeing. We forfeited
00:50:16.860 --> 00:50:21.219
the colleges and universities and now to some
00:50:21.219 --> 00:50:23.519
extent the high schools. We've been reclaiming
00:50:23.519 --> 00:50:25.460
a lot of school boards here in York. It was just
00:50:25.460 --> 00:50:28.820
another â Good. I'm still making mischief here,
00:50:28.900 --> 00:50:31.639
by the way. So we've been doing the last few
00:50:31.639 --> 00:50:33.719
years as we realize these school boards have.
00:50:34.280 --> 00:50:36.699
It's a great place for liberals to get a toehold
00:50:36.699 --> 00:50:40.420
in a conservative communities. So next thing
00:50:40.420 --> 00:50:43.079
you know, it's boys and girls bathrooms. And
00:50:43.079 --> 00:50:45.079
I'm not villainizing those kids, by the way.
00:50:45.139 --> 00:50:47.619
They're not the enemy. But we don't. But we can
00:50:47.619 --> 00:50:50.500
protect our girls and sports and pornographic
00:50:50.500 --> 00:50:53.300
material again. So they'll call it book bands
00:50:53.300 --> 00:50:55.539
and they call you names. It's not. It's some
00:50:55.539 --> 00:50:57.539
of this. This is blatant pornography that we
00:50:57.539 --> 00:51:00.179
would go to jail for by even possessing. They
00:51:00.179 --> 00:51:03.079
want to put it in middle school libraries. But,
00:51:03.079 --> 00:51:04.500
you know, they control a lot of the narrative
00:51:04.500 --> 00:51:08.780
with the media. And so there's there's some of
00:51:08.780 --> 00:51:11.920
that going on here as we speak, when what it
00:51:11.920 --> 00:51:14.920
really is, you know, abandoned mascots was another
00:51:14.920 --> 00:51:19.239
one at one of them. So they. They just passed
00:51:19.239 --> 00:51:23.559
along California where they can't have any mascots
00:51:23.559 --> 00:51:26.139
that have anything to do with Native Americans
00:51:26.139 --> 00:51:29.739
now. Can't even mention it. Can't have mascots.
00:51:29.739 --> 00:51:32.239
Yeah, that's what this was. This was the Susquehannock
00:51:32.239 --> 00:51:34.980
Warriors. Sorry to interrupt you. Now we've got
00:51:34.980 --> 00:51:38.159
that. That was one of the school boards we reclaimed.
00:51:38.639 --> 00:51:40.920
I think they're bringing something back there.
00:51:40.960 --> 00:51:43.239
And it was a very, you know, respectful, you
00:51:43.239 --> 00:51:45.019
know, historic kind of or, you know, it was a
00:51:45.019 --> 00:51:48.059
very respectful kind of thing. But it's just
00:51:48.059 --> 00:51:52.559
â so then they're talking about â I'm telling
00:51:52.559 --> 00:51:56.219
you, we're living in some dark times here. I
00:51:56.219 --> 00:51:58.579
mean, again, there's lots of room for disagreement,
00:51:58.659 --> 00:52:01.360
but some of this is pure evil and totally American.
00:52:02.099 --> 00:52:04.159
We were talking about this before you got on
00:52:04.159 --> 00:52:08.570
about how it seems like â You're talking about
00:52:08.570 --> 00:52:10.670
pornography in the books and in the schools,
00:52:10.750 --> 00:52:13.289
right? And if somebody gets up and reads those
00:52:13.289 --> 00:52:15.030
books to the school board members, they're like,
00:52:15.130 --> 00:52:17.070
we can't say this in here. It's like, this is
00:52:17.070 --> 00:52:19.409
the books that are in your schools that kids
00:52:19.409 --> 00:52:21.849
have access to. And I guess my point is, we were
00:52:21.849 --> 00:52:24.369
talking about how the left seems to be normalizing
00:52:24.369 --> 00:52:28.670
pedophilia and pornography to kids. What the,
00:52:28.690 --> 00:52:30.710
like, is that kind of happening? Like, are they
00:52:30.710 --> 00:52:32.690
trying to pass laws of Democrats in Pennsylvania,
00:52:32.789 --> 00:52:36.039
like to lessen the, you know? the penalties and
00:52:36.039 --> 00:52:40.619
stuff for pedophilia and and you know and just
00:52:40.619 --> 00:52:45.119
children in general yeah yeah do you see are
00:52:45.119 --> 00:52:46.679
you noticing that in pennsylvania because it
00:52:46.679 --> 00:52:48.420
seems to be happening everywhere we have a republican
00:52:48.420 --> 00:52:51.039
senate uh pennsylvania is the only state which
00:52:51.039 --> 00:52:53.639
is kind of shocking and kind of troubling in
00:52:53.639 --> 00:52:55.860
a way we're the only state with divided government
00:52:55.860 --> 00:52:58.090
i mean that Sort of â I mean I'd prefer it be
00:52:58.090 --> 00:53:01.809
Republican across the board, but we have a Democrat
00:53:01.809 --> 00:53:04.829
governor, the slimmest of majorities in the House,
00:53:04.969 --> 00:53:08.230
and then we have a Republican Senate. So they've
00:53:08.230 --> 00:53:10.690
been a great backstop from any kind of nonsense.
00:53:11.010 --> 00:53:13.429
There's some â see, that's another interesting
00:53:13.429 --> 00:53:16.090
point. So what they will do is they will not
00:53:16.090 --> 00:53:22.760
â they would â they will not come out. They're
00:53:22.760 --> 00:53:25.500
savvy enough to not run a bill that says let's
00:53:25.500 --> 00:53:28.659
allow all pornographic material in schools. So
00:53:28.659 --> 00:53:32.000
what they'll do is they'll put it under the guise
00:53:32.000 --> 00:53:36.679
of LGBT or trans that we're protecting people.
00:53:37.380 --> 00:53:41.019
But what it is is it's an enabler for this. So
00:53:41.019 --> 00:53:43.739
then when we vote against it and speak out against
00:53:43.739 --> 00:53:47.090
it. We had a bill here, House Bill 300. Then
00:53:47.090 --> 00:53:51.389
we're the bigots. So what is â so it's not â
00:53:51.389 --> 00:53:55.409
look, nobody wants LGBT or trans kids being beat
00:53:55.409 --> 00:53:57.550
up or bullied or discriminated against. I mean
00:53:57.550 --> 00:54:01.130
I'll go to the mat for that. I'd rather take
00:54:01.130 --> 00:54:03.590
a beating myself than see that happen to a child.
00:54:03.750 --> 00:54:06.690
But that's not what it is. You're talking about
00:54:06.690 --> 00:54:10.980
irreversible â Anything from hormone treatments
00:54:10.980 --> 00:54:14.599
to irreversible surgeries on minor children when
00:54:14.599 --> 00:54:17.099
the human brain isn't even fully developed until
00:54:17.099 --> 00:54:22.179
25, 26 years old. So this is child abuse. It
00:54:22.179 --> 00:54:25.820
is perverse is what it is. But there again, people,
00:54:25.920 --> 00:54:28.539
what we need to be doing is calling it out as
00:54:28.539 --> 00:54:31.360
such on our end rather than sitting here saying,
00:54:31.559 --> 00:54:33.559
well, we're not bigots. Screw it. You call me
00:54:33.559 --> 00:54:35.500
whatever name you want. You're a freaking pervert
00:54:35.500 --> 00:54:38.710
is what you are. You're a child abuser. You know,
00:54:38.710 --> 00:54:42.670
that's what this is. That's what this is. And,
00:54:42.869 --> 00:54:45.690
you know, but we don't have enough people bold
00:54:45.690 --> 00:54:47.650
enough to stand up and say it. We're constantly
00:54:47.650 --> 00:54:50.469
on defense as conservatives, and we need to go
00:54:50.469 --> 00:54:52.449
on the offense and call this out for what it
00:54:52.449 --> 00:54:54.469
is. But that's the tactic they would use. And
00:54:54.469 --> 00:54:57.860
if you can't handle being called a name. Any
00:54:57.860 --> 00:55:00.820
grown man in general, shame on you. I can't stand
00:55:00.820 --> 00:55:03.159
a mentally weak man. I'm not talking physically.
00:55:03.159 --> 00:55:07.079
I'm not that strong myself. But I cannot stand
00:55:07.079 --> 00:55:10.179
it, and much less an elected official or business
00:55:10.179 --> 00:55:12.679
person or whatever that has been so blessed,
00:55:12.719 --> 00:55:15.960
you know, to not have the courage to stand up
00:55:15.960 --> 00:55:18.079
and speak, especially the older we get. What
00:55:18.079 --> 00:55:20.219
do we have to lose? You know what I mean? Like
00:55:20.219 --> 00:55:24.820
I said earlier, let's start fighting for something.
00:55:24.960 --> 00:55:28.860
Nobody ever has to take a bullet. The United
00:55:28.860 --> 00:55:32.400
States is the outlier now on the childhood trans
00:55:32.400 --> 00:55:35.179
thing too. All the other countries that were
00:55:35.179 --> 00:55:36.980
on that for a little while have now seemed to
00:55:36.980 --> 00:55:41.340
ban doing anything, any permanent damage to kids
00:55:41.340 --> 00:55:45.519
when they want to become trans. Be a trans kid.
00:55:45.579 --> 00:55:48.460
When you turn 18, then you can have, if you want
00:55:48.460 --> 00:55:50.139
to get surgeries and permanently alter yourself,
00:55:50.400 --> 00:55:54.360
go ahead and do that. But before that, no. Right.
00:55:55.000 --> 00:55:57.380
Mike, I got a quick question, man. Did you realize
00:55:57.380 --> 00:56:00.579
what an uphill battle you had to fight going
00:56:00.579 --> 00:56:03.940
into politics? Like, did you realize what this
00:56:03.940 --> 00:56:06.099
was going to entail when you signed up for this?
00:56:08.079 --> 00:56:11.239
I'll try to give you the quick. So I had left.
00:56:11.739 --> 00:56:14.920
I was worked at and was president of a great
00:56:14.920 --> 00:56:17.659
company there in St. It was called St. Ange Company
00:56:17.659 --> 00:56:19.320
in York, Pennsylvania, and they've continued
00:56:19.320 --> 00:56:23.139
to flourish without me. But a company I never
00:56:23.139 --> 00:56:24.579
should have been hired at in the first place
00:56:24.579 --> 00:56:27.039
way back in 94, I ended up becoming president
00:56:27.039 --> 00:56:30.719
of when I was about 36 and did that for 11 years.
00:56:30.840 --> 00:56:35.380
And then I retired from there in 17. My partners
00:56:35.380 --> 00:56:40.519
decided my run had been long enough. But I went
00:56:40.519 --> 00:56:42.960
home and told my wife at the time. I said, well,
00:56:43.139 --> 00:56:44.420
it looks like we're going to have a lot more
00:56:44.420 --> 00:56:46.239
time to spend together because I used to work
00:56:46.239 --> 00:56:50.690
long hours and travel. To which she said. Yeah,
00:56:50.710 --> 00:56:54.489
I guess. So her utter lack of enthusiasm at the
00:56:54.489 --> 00:56:56.789
prospect of spending more time with me told me
00:56:56.789 --> 00:56:59.349
I got to get some kind of a job. But very quickly,
00:56:59.409 --> 00:57:03.650
what happened was I attended a political event
00:57:03.650 --> 00:57:06.130
for a guy from York County named Scott Wagner,
00:57:06.230 --> 00:57:08.110
another great American who was running for governor
00:57:08.110 --> 00:57:10.389
at the time. He had been. Yeah. Yeah. You wouldn't.
00:57:10.389 --> 00:57:12.550
So he had been a very he's a very successful
00:57:12.550 --> 00:57:15.530
business guy. Another whole nother echelon above
00:57:15.530 --> 00:57:18.679
what I accomplished. But in any event, Scott
00:57:18.679 --> 00:57:20.900
was a state senator, the only state senator in
00:57:20.900 --> 00:57:22.880
history in Pennsylvania to win as a write in,
00:57:22.920 --> 00:57:24.800
which was a whole nother interesting story four
00:57:24.800 --> 00:57:27.940
years prior. But he decided to run for governor.
00:57:28.619 --> 00:57:31.219
So he gave up his state Senate seat. My predecessor,
00:57:31.519 --> 00:57:34.179
a lady named Kristen Phillips Hill, ran for his
00:57:34.179 --> 00:57:36.780
Senate seat, and she's still in the Senate doing
00:57:36.780 --> 00:57:39.860
a great job. And that freed up her rep seat.
00:57:40.179 --> 00:57:43.420
And in parallel to that, I went to an event.
00:57:43.480 --> 00:57:46.219
We were both in the same business group, Scott
00:57:46.219 --> 00:57:49.559
and I. He hosted an event at the Capitol. And
00:57:49.559 --> 00:57:51.300
he had a gentleman speak who had been up here
00:57:51.300 --> 00:57:53.460
30 years. And I referenced this line earlier,
00:57:53.539 --> 00:57:55.320
but he said, you need to realize for the vast
00:57:55.320 --> 00:57:57.420
majority of people up here, not saying they're
00:57:57.420 --> 00:57:59.679
not smart or that they're not hardworking. I
00:57:59.679 --> 00:58:02.139
mean, some more than others, of course. But he
00:58:02.139 --> 00:58:04.019
said, for the vast majority of people up here,
00:58:04.079 --> 00:58:06.619
this is the best job they'll ever have. And we
00:58:06.619 --> 00:58:08.760
need more guys like Scott Wagner that don't need
00:58:08.760 --> 00:58:11.280
to be here, meaning business people that don't
00:58:11.280 --> 00:58:15.519
need the job. And that really motivated me to
00:58:15.519 --> 00:58:19.920
run. decided to run for a school board in Dallastown
00:58:19.920 --> 00:58:22.400
here, Chad, where I went to school when our kids
00:58:22.400 --> 00:58:26.739
were. So I was on school board at the time just
00:58:26.739 --> 00:58:28.320
because they kind of had an opening and somebody
00:58:28.320 --> 00:58:30.360
asked me to do it. So I actually served in both
00:58:30.360 --> 00:58:33.260
capacities. I then won the state rep race, served
00:58:33.260 --> 00:58:35.340
in both capacities for about a year, and then
00:58:35.340 --> 00:58:39.739
I stepped off the school board. And so it's been.
00:58:40.769 --> 00:58:43.250
frustrating at times. I went from leading a group
00:58:43.250 --> 00:58:46.630
of 120 people to being low man on the pole in
00:58:46.630 --> 00:58:49.389
a group of about 110 called the Republican Caucus.
00:58:49.429 --> 00:58:53.269
So it was certainly humbling. But it's frustrating
00:58:53.269 --> 00:58:56.110
because it's just so hard to get meaningful things
00:58:56.110 --> 00:59:00.329
done. And not everything from business translates,
00:59:00.489 --> 00:59:03.550
but leadership is kind of leadership and good
00:59:03.550 --> 00:59:07.199
policy. Sometimes it's so. self -evident, particularly
00:59:07.199 --> 00:59:09.920
on, like we were talking earlier, tax and regulatory
00:59:09.920 --> 00:59:12.280
policy that's crippling our small businesses.
00:59:12.360 --> 00:59:15.880
So that's been frustrating. The part that has
00:59:15.880 --> 00:59:19.920
been rewarding was, like we talked about earlier,
00:59:20.239 --> 00:59:23.519
reopen and other efforts, some of these things
00:59:23.519 --> 00:59:25.159
we've been doing with school boards and other
00:59:25.159 --> 00:59:31.210
things where I can use the platform and work
00:59:31.210 --> 00:59:33.849
more in an executive type role, albeit on a small
00:59:33.849 --> 00:59:38.530
local scale, where it does give me a voice that
00:59:38.530 --> 00:59:41.510
I've been blessed to be able to use. You know,
00:59:41.550 --> 00:59:44.369
God's put me in a position where I try not to
00:59:44.369 --> 00:59:47.489
be, I'm passionate and opinionated. I try to
00:59:47.489 --> 00:59:50.820
be courageous. But I also try not to be arrogant.
00:59:51.219 --> 00:59:54.739
And, you know, I recognize I don't, there's a
00:59:54.739 --> 00:59:56.860
lot of things I don't know. There's, I try to
00:59:56.860 --> 00:59:58.840
surround and encourage people to critique me.
00:59:59.440 --> 01:00:01.460
You don't get better by people just telling you
01:00:01.460 --> 01:00:05.139
what you want to hear. So it really is, especially
01:00:05.139 --> 01:00:07.380
when you step foot in the beautiful Capitol building
01:00:07.380 --> 01:00:11.719
up here, it really is kind of, it is an honor,
01:00:11.860 --> 01:00:15.340
not elevating politicians, but. Like in this
01:00:15.340 --> 01:00:17.440
case, just the whole history of Pennsylvania
01:00:17.440 --> 01:00:21.179
and how critical it was. And, you know, again,
01:00:21.340 --> 01:00:24.000
at a smaller level, but being able to serve,
01:00:24.039 --> 01:00:25.699
you know, the greatest country in the world.
01:00:25.719 --> 01:00:29.360
And it is an honor representing, in my case,
01:00:29.420 --> 01:00:33.219
you know, six over 60 some thousand people. Rock
01:00:33.219 --> 01:00:36.619
on. We appreciate you. We absolutely do. Are
01:00:36.619 --> 01:00:38.579
you are you starting? Because I mean, I think
01:00:38.579 --> 01:00:41.360
we're starting to realize, though. businessmen
01:00:41.360 --> 01:00:43.519
are some of the best politicians. Like, if you
01:00:43.519 --> 01:00:45.360
could run a successful business, it'd probably
01:00:45.360 --> 01:00:48.400
translate over into government as well because
01:00:48.400 --> 01:00:50.500
you can't run, like you were saying earlier,
01:00:50.800 --> 01:00:54.679
the budget on a deficit and expect to make money
01:00:54.679 --> 01:00:58.099
and all that jazz. So a lot of the, I guess,
01:00:58.119 --> 01:01:00.639
ideas that go into business and running a successful
01:01:00.639 --> 01:01:04.139
one kind of do go into being a politician and
01:01:04.139 --> 01:01:07.300
running the government. You see that with President
01:01:07.300 --> 01:01:09.699
Trump. I mean, a very successful businessman
01:01:09.699 --> 01:01:11.889
and then, happened to be one of the best leaders
01:01:11.889 --> 01:01:14.769
of the free world. Yeah, I mean, you look at
01:01:14.769 --> 01:01:18.489
what he did. I mean, I will tell you, I have
01:01:18.489 --> 01:01:20.889
learned there is a place for some lawyers, for
01:01:20.889 --> 01:01:23.789
example, some legal minds that, you know, in
01:01:23.789 --> 01:01:28.550
my case, I love to learn, but I'm not a voracious
01:01:28.550 --> 01:01:31.250
reader. Okay, so I'm not going to be the one
01:01:31.250 --> 01:01:34.449
that reads through 30 pages of every given bill.
01:01:35.550 --> 01:01:37.849
you know, sort of validates the constitutionality
01:01:37.849 --> 01:01:39.690
of some of these. So I've seen, you know, where
01:01:39.690 --> 01:01:41.909
there's value there. There's value in having
01:01:41.909 --> 01:01:44.309
some policy wonks that really dig into a lot
01:01:44.309 --> 01:01:49.070
of this, some accountant types. But what I'm
01:01:49.070 --> 01:01:52.130
not a fan, personally, I would probably raise
01:01:52.130 --> 01:01:54.949
the age to run for office up to more like 35
01:01:54.949 --> 01:01:58.309
instead of 21 that we have here. A lot of that's
01:01:58.309 --> 01:02:00.329
kind of outdated when life expectancies were
01:02:00.329 --> 01:02:02.590
a lot shorter. But I like people that at least
01:02:02.590 --> 01:02:05.329
have had some meaningful life experience. I think
01:02:05.329 --> 01:02:07.929
business translates better than the rest, but
01:02:07.929 --> 01:02:10.230
certainly some military experience is good to
01:02:10.230 --> 01:02:12.289
have up here. People that have farmed, which
01:02:12.289 --> 01:02:14.210
they are the epitome of business people, to be
01:02:14.210 --> 01:02:20.579
clear. Women that have raised some of one or
01:02:20.579 --> 01:02:22.300
two of my colleagues have raised eight children.
01:02:23.039 --> 01:02:25.579
There's a lot to be learned from them. OK, so
01:02:25.579 --> 01:02:28.659
I do like a mix, but I will say that business
01:02:28.659 --> 01:02:31.380
translates probably better than any other thing.
01:02:31.480 --> 01:02:33.300
And if you look at Trump, I never thought we
01:02:33.300 --> 01:02:35.440
would see Reagan's equal. I just loved Ronald
01:02:35.440 --> 01:02:40.380
Reagan. Trump in four years with his own party
01:02:40.380 --> 01:02:42.460
working against him and being totally out of
01:02:42.460 --> 01:02:46.880
his element is the best president. of my lifetime.
01:02:47.159 --> 01:02:52.280
And I am just, it's, I'm in awe. I wish you could
01:02:52.280 --> 01:02:54.619
temper him with 20 or 30 % Reagan, then you'd
01:02:54.619 --> 01:02:56.599
have probably the perfect, if he was a little
01:02:56.599 --> 01:03:01.480
more presidential at times. But he is, what he
01:03:01.480 --> 01:03:04.820
accomplished in four years, he is undeterred
01:03:04.820 --> 01:03:06.719
is the word that I use. And that's what I've
01:03:06.719 --> 01:03:10.840
been so motivated by him. He is literally undeterred,
01:03:10.860 --> 01:03:13.420
no matter what's said about him, what happens
01:03:13.420 --> 01:03:18.820
to him. trying to take his life, it is remarkable.
01:03:19.159 --> 01:03:22.179
And it shows you what leadership really looks
01:03:22.179 --> 01:03:24.460
like and can accomplish, even if it's not always
01:03:24.460 --> 01:03:27.539
as graceful as we might like. When you're undeterred
01:03:27.539 --> 01:03:29.519
and courageous and committed, you can get a lot
01:03:29.519 --> 01:03:31.760
of stuff done. Well, maybe you don't rate the
01:03:31.760 --> 01:03:35.699
age from 21 to 35, but maybe you have some sort
01:03:35.699 --> 01:03:39.659
of competency test or something. There could
01:03:39.659 --> 01:03:42.260
be brilliant 21 year olds that could handle the
01:03:42.260 --> 01:03:44.159
job. But I mean, and then there could be people
01:03:44.159 --> 01:03:46.760
age 35 that, you know, have the life experience,
01:03:46.900 --> 01:03:49.039
but they're just not competent upstairs. So it's
01:03:49.039 --> 01:03:52.500
like there's got to be some way to, you know,
01:03:52.500 --> 01:03:55.059
prove that you could actually handle this job.
01:03:57.309 --> 01:03:59.769
Well, that might be even better yet. And to be
01:03:59.769 --> 01:04:01.690
clear, I learned from young people. I had young
01:04:01.690 --> 01:04:03.889
people managing my campaigns. It's not a knock
01:04:03.889 --> 01:04:06.769
on young people. I just think, and maybe I'm
01:04:06.769 --> 01:04:10.630
just getting old, but I can get advice from anybody
01:04:10.630 --> 01:04:13.929
is how I put it. But when I seek counsel, it
01:04:13.929 --> 01:04:18.510
is typically from older, successful men that
01:04:18.510 --> 01:04:23.349
I can. And you're 100 % correct. It's more about
01:04:23.349 --> 01:04:25.730
the individual. We've got some exceptional young
01:04:25.730 --> 01:04:28.929
legislators. But I do think there's just a lot
01:04:28.929 --> 01:04:33.949
for having some life experience, not just. The
01:04:33.949 --> 01:04:36.269
other thing is, at that age, they can easily
01:04:36.269 --> 01:04:39.449
be manipulated up here. All of a sudden, you're
01:04:39.449 --> 01:04:41.369
called the honorable this, the honorable that.
01:04:41.489 --> 01:04:43.130
You've got a parking space. You've got a couple
01:04:43.130 --> 01:04:45.750
offices. You've got three or four staff. And
01:04:45.750 --> 01:04:48.530
you can just hang around for 10 or 12 years and
01:04:48.530 --> 01:04:51.630
wait to become a chairman of a committee. So
01:04:51.630 --> 01:04:56.469
I sort of prefer people a little bit older that
01:04:56.469 --> 01:04:59.090
are coming up here more with a service mindset.
01:04:59.659 --> 01:05:02.920
than a career. But to your point, there's plenty
01:05:02.920 --> 01:05:05.440
of young, great legislators. Well, and to your
01:05:05.440 --> 01:05:08.639
point earlier, term limits would help to nullify
01:05:08.639 --> 01:05:11.780
a lot of this. You just, you get six, eight years,
01:05:11.860 --> 01:05:15.519
whatever it is, and then you're done. Yeah. You
01:05:15.519 --> 01:05:16.960
got to bring in someone else. You'll get a kick
01:05:16.960 --> 01:05:19.539
out of this. My freshman year, I was only been
01:05:19.539 --> 01:05:21.400
in office. It was another guy. He kind of beat
01:05:21.400 --> 01:05:23.239
me to the punch. So we collaborated on another
01:05:23.239 --> 01:05:25.929
freshman, younger guy, Andrew Lewis. We were
01:05:25.929 --> 01:05:28.550
only up here a month, maybe two, and we introduced
01:05:28.550 --> 01:05:32.510
the term limits bill right out of the gate. And
01:05:32.510 --> 01:05:36.210
I think there's some â yeah, yeah. So I agree
01:05:36.210 --> 01:05:39.730
completely. Again, it shouldn't be â should not
01:05:39.730 --> 01:05:41.650
be a career. I'm going to take another bite at
01:05:41.650 --> 01:05:43.610
that apple. It's an uphill battle, but there's
01:05:43.610 --> 01:05:45.869
a little twist I want to put on it that might
01:05:45.869 --> 01:05:48.909
help us get some votes on it. I was going to
01:05:48.909 --> 01:05:51.349
say, like, how do you â you have to have the
01:05:51.349 --> 01:05:54.400
body that â It does not have term limits. Vote
01:05:54.400 --> 01:05:58.099
for term limits. It's like â yeah. Well, that's
01:05:58.099 --> 01:05:59.800
one reason, Chad, there's a big push for this
01:05:59.800 --> 01:06:02.860
Constitution of States, which they â or Convention
01:06:02.860 --> 01:06:04.340
of States. Convention of States. Yeah, I was
01:06:04.340 --> 01:06:06.380
going to bring that up too about that. I'm torn
01:06:06.380 --> 01:06:09.860
on that. The risk there â okay, so the good news
01:06:09.860 --> 01:06:13.019
is if it's as advertised, their scope is limited
01:06:13.019 --> 01:06:15.719
to a balanced budget act and term limits, both
01:06:15.719 --> 01:06:17.719
of which you can imagine I would strongly support.
01:06:18.059 --> 01:06:20.539
The problem is, A, it assumes that you're going
01:06:20.539 --> 01:06:23.119
to get good delegates going to it who sort of
01:06:23.119 --> 01:06:27.739
vote the right way, and B, the big single push
01:06:27.739 --> 01:06:30.980
against it is that it could somehow open the
01:06:30.980 --> 01:06:34.389
gate to revisiting the Second Amendment. And
01:06:34.389 --> 01:06:38.329
we â while there's lots of assurances that wouldn't
01:06:38.329 --> 01:06:41.110
happen, that's a risk that many of us are really
01:06:41.110 --> 01:06:44.409
reluctant to take. So I really am torn on it
01:06:44.409 --> 01:06:48.789
because one of the â as you â I end a lot of
01:06:48.789 --> 01:06:51.670
these â one of the takeaways on a lot of the
01:06:51.670 --> 01:06:54.489
conversations like we're having here is never,
01:06:54.630 --> 01:06:59.550
ever, ever give up your guns. And that is the
01:06:59.550 --> 01:07:01.889
amendment, as you guys know, that guarantees
01:07:01.889 --> 01:07:06.199
all the others. So my take on term limits, we
01:07:06.199 --> 01:07:08.119
did some of this with the bill we tried. One
01:07:08.119 --> 01:07:10.199
is you're going to have to grandfather the people
01:07:10.199 --> 01:07:12.280
that are already in office. Now, we would be
01:07:12.280 --> 01:07:14.739
subject to it, but the clock wouldn't start ticking
01:07:14.739 --> 01:07:17.840
until the bill passes. So that's one thing you
01:07:17.840 --> 01:07:19.719
do. Otherwise, it's totally dead on arrival.
01:07:20.409 --> 01:07:22.650
The big one that we haven't really tried that
01:07:22.650 --> 01:07:24.510
I want to do â and we had some other things.
01:07:24.730 --> 01:07:26.570
Another argument is, well, people should be able
01:07:26.570 --> 01:07:28.469
to vote for who they want. So we had it that
01:07:28.469 --> 01:07:31.070
if you step down for a term or you lost an election,
01:07:31.230 --> 01:07:33.110
then you could run again and reset the clock.
01:07:33.210 --> 01:07:35.989
The reality is very, very few people. That would
01:07:35.989 --> 01:07:38.170
break the cycle of incumbency because incumbents
01:07:38.170 --> 01:07:41.889
have a lot of advantages on fundraising and getting
01:07:41.889 --> 01:07:44.289
bills passed. So it would break that cycle, and
01:07:44.289 --> 01:07:47.170
it's very difficult to actually lose or step
01:07:47.170 --> 01:07:49.989
away and come back. The thing that I want to
01:07:49.989 --> 01:07:53.090
do that I have not seen tried in Pennsylvania,
01:07:53.329 --> 01:07:55.469
and I think it's pretty common, we serve two
01:07:55.469 --> 01:07:57.710
-year terms in the House. The Senate serves four.
01:07:57.929 --> 01:08:00.329
What I would do is extend the two -year to a
01:08:00.329 --> 01:08:03.150
four -year term, extend the Senate from four
01:08:03.150 --> 01:08:05.510
to six, and then you would have a 12 -year cap.
01:08:05.670 --> 01:08:07.309
So it would either be two terms in the Senate
01:08:07.309 --> 01:08:10.369
or three in the House. And the reason I think
01:08:10.369 --> 01:08:12.510
that could get a lot of votes is that people,
01:08:12.610 --> 01:08:14.869
politicians, hate running for office. They hate
01:08:14.869 --> 01:08:17.390
campaigning. And to tell you the truth, I think
01:08:17.390 --> 01:08:19.750
that people would get a better legislator. I
01:08:19.750 --> 01:08:22.130
mean, it sounds a little self -serving, but A,
01:08:22.390 --> 01:08:24.390
you're getting term limits in exchange for it.
01:08:24.430 --> 01:08:28.770
But B, a lot of these folks, you know, we say
01:08:28.770 --> 01:08:31.149
it's a two -year term, but you're sworn in in
01:08:31.149 --> 01:08:33.619
January. you're literally getting signatures
01:08:33.619 --> 01:08:36.180
to get on the ballot for the next election the
01:08:36.180 --> 01:08:39.079
following February. So within 13 months, and
01:08:39.079 --> 01:08:40.920
for some of the folks in these purple, tough
01:08:40.920 --> 01:08:43.039
purple districts, districts a guy like me would
01:08:43.039 --> 01:08:45.619
probably never win. They've got a campaign and
01:08:45.619 --> 01:08:47.899
fundraise year round. They're always, any votes
01:08:47.899 --> 01:08:50.520
they take, they're always looking. you know,
01:08:50.520 --> 01:08:53.260
to the ballot box and the polls. And it's good
01:08:53.260 --> 01:08:54.979
to be accountable to your voters, don't get me
01:08:54.979 --> 01:08:57.260
wrong. But if we had a four -year term, I think
01:08:57.260 --> 01:08:59.579
you could see more things, more substantive,
01:08:59.800 --> 01:09:03.180
courageous kind of things getting done, as opposed
01:09:03.180 --> 01:09:05.500
to folks that are just constantly thinking re
01:09:05.500 --> 01:09:08.329
-election. And less money wasted on campaigns,
01:09:08.630 --> 01:09:11.689
you know? Yes, yes, yes. Amen to that. Much less
01:09:11.689 --> 01:09:14.850
money wasted on campaigns. Mike, real quick before
01:09:14.850 --> 01:09:16.729
we let you go, because I know you have a lot
01:09:16.729 --> 01:09:18.590
of things to do. You're a busy man and stuff
01:09:18.590 --> 01:09:21.869
like that. But why would term limits possibly
01:09:21.869 --> 01:09:24.829
affect the Second Amendment? I wasn't clear on
01:09:24.829 --> 01:09:27.729
that. Convention of states. Yeah, the Convention
01:09:27.729 --> 01:09:31.109
of States would, yeah. So it would be a limit.
01:09:31.189 --> 01:09:32.850
What they call it is a limited constitution.
01:09:33.609 --> 01:09:35.489
Believe it or not, and I don't know as much of
01:09:35.489 --> 01:09:37.449
the history as I should, but Pennsylvania had,
01:09:37.550 --> 01:09:40.430
at the state level, had, and sometimes you'll
01:09:40.430 --> 01:09:42.289
see another term used, there's Convention of
01:09:42.289 --> 01:09:45.510
States and then there's also a, it's not a constitutional
01:09:45.510 --> 01:09:47.489
convention, but they called, they actually did
01:09:47.489 --> 01:09:49.449
that in the 60s in Pennsylvania where they brought
01:09:49.449 --> 01:09:52.149
delegates together. I'm not sure the exact process
01:09:52.149 --> 01:09:53.909
for how you determine who the delegates are,
01:09:54.050 --> 01:09:56.350
but yeah, it's a, what they call it is a limited
01:09:56.350 --> 01:09:59.510
convention of states where they would be able
01:09:59.510 --> 01:10:03.079
to. basically amend, as I understand it, amend
01:10:03.079 --> 01:10:07.840
the Constitution to address balanced budget and
01:10:07.840 --> 01:10:10.500
term limits. I believe that's the only two issues.
01:10:10.739 --> 01:10:15.100
Our concern is that in so doing, is there a potential
01:10:15.100 --> 01:10:18.159
that depending on who shows up and how the procedures
01:10:18.159 --> 01:10:20.539
work, that it could get opened up to start addressing
01:10:20.539 --> 01:10:23.439
other things, specifically the Second Amendment.
01:10:24.140 --> 01:10:27.220
Whether that concern, that fear is legitimate
01:10:27.220 --> 01:10:33.010
is highly debated. But I don't want to risk that
01:10:33.010 --> 01:10:38.750
one either. So it's a tricky â it's kind of a
01:10:38.750 --> 01:10:42.329
tricky issue because I admire the intentions,
01:10:42.550 --> 01:10:46.970
but I'm not so sure about the vehicle, the actual
01:10:46.970 --> 01:10:49.609
implementation of it. And keep in mind, we do
01:10:49.609 --> 01:10:52.670
have an amendment process. It should not be easy
01:10:52.670 --> 01:10:54.569
to amend the Constitution. Sometimes we like
01:10:54.569 --> 01:10:56.470
that. Sometimes we don't. But there's a reason
01:10:56.470 --> 01:11:00.189
the Founding Fathers made it difficult. I was
01:11:00.189 --> 01:11:01.510
going to say, if you're thinking about that,
01:11:01.569 --> 01:11:04.069
then the left is thinking about it. Oh, yeah.
01:11:04.529 --> 01:11:07.930
The Second Amendment, I mean, yes. That's the
01:11:07.930 --> 01:11:10.510
funny thing is it does sort of work under the
01:11:10.510 --> 01:11:12.689
premise that we're just going to have conservatives
01:11:12.689 --> 01:11:15.149
only showing up, doing what conservatives want
01:11:15.149 --> 01:11:17.329
to do, and the left is going to somehow sit idly
01:11:17.329 --> 01:11:19.710
by and watch it happen. So that's where you get
01:11:19.710 --> 01:11:24.949
into the challenge. Got you. Mr. Jones, so do
01:11:24.949 --> 01:11:27.329
you want to direct people anywhere to go? Are
01:11:27.329 --> 01:11:30.069
you coming up for reelection this November? I
01:11:30.069 --> 01:11:32.489
am coming up for reelection. You can find me
01:11:32.489 --> 01:11:34.909
on Facebook at State Representative Mike Jones.
01:11:35.069 --> 01:11:37.369
I am sitting in the state capitol, so I cannot
01:11:37.369 --> 01:11:39.930
direct you to my fundraising efforts or anything
01:11:39.930 --> 01:11:44.989
like that. But you can find my state representative
01:11:44.989 --> 01:11:47.310
pages there. I'm pretty easy to find. World's
01:11:47.310 --> 01:11:51.529
most boring name. I am up for election this year.
01:11:51.810 --> 01:11:57.810
Fortunately, I am. unopposed in November. Previous
01:11:57.810 --> 01:12:00.050
years have been different and next time could
01:12:00.050 --> 01:12:02.250
be different. We've actually got an interesting
01:12:02.250 --> 01:12:05.210
candidate running here, Chad, in the city of
01:12:05.210 --> 01:12:10.029
York, a very unconventional Republican, relatively
01:12:10.029 --> 01:12:13.010
young, younger than me, young lady, a Latino
01:12:13.010 --> 01:12:15.710
lady, Jasmine Rivera, single mom, auto mechanic,
01:12:16.050 --> 01:12:21.640
small business owner, three children. It's â
01:12:21.640 --> 01:12:24.539
she's an underdog, but it's a very interesting
01:12:24.539 --> 01:12:27.460
race, and it's the kind of candidate that we
01:12:27.460 --> 01:12:32.119
as Republicans need to be putting forward as
01:12:32.119 --> 01:12:35.439
we try to reach some of the different communities
01:12:35.439 --> 01:12:37.399
that we haven't traditionally done as well with.
01:12:37.579 --> 01:12:40.079
I saw her signs when I was in New York last time,
01:12:40.140 --> 01:12:41.739
which was about two months ago, a month and a
01:12:41.739 --> 01:12:44.520
half at this point. But is she running for city
01:12:44.520 --> 01:12:47.220
council? She's running for state rep like myself.
01:12:47.220 --> 01:12:48.760
Oh, state rep, okay. She's a Democrat incumbent.
01:12:49.289 --> 01:12:54.909
Got it. It's an interesting race. The numbers
01:12:54.909 --> 01:12:59.409
heavily favor the Democrat, but she appeals to
01:12:59.409 --> 01:13:03.430
a number of demographics that your typical Republican
01:13:03.430 --> 01:13:07.029
may not. traditionally appeal to i saw in your
01:13:07.029 --> 01:13:09.090
in your wikipedia which is not always correct
01:13:09.090 --> 01:13:11.729
but that yeah i'm curious about the democrat
01:13:11.729 --> 01:13:13.250
thing i don't know where that would have come
01:13:13.250 --> 01:13:15.510
from but yeah that's it says that you i tell
01:13:15.510 --> 01:13:17.329
people i give you enough legitimate things to
01:13:17.329 --> 01:13:19.989
critique you don't have to make things up yeah
01:13:19.989 --> 01:13:23.029
i'm looking at right now in 2017 it says list
01:13:23.029 --> 01:13:26.369
you as a democratic mike jones for oh was that
01:13:26.369 --> 01:13:29.079
for school board Yes, yes. I cross -filed. I'm
01:13:29.079 --> 01:13:31.180
sorry. I cross -filed for that. That is true.
01:13:31.420 --> 01:13:34.260
Ah, okay. Got it. That is true. In 17, I won
01:13:34.260 --> 01:13:37.079
the Democrat and Republican nomination for school
01:13:37.079 --> 01:13:39.520
board. I forgot about that, so my apologies.
01:13:39.760 --> 01:13:41.500
That's all right. But I was never a Democrat,
01:13:41.699 --> 01:13:44.340
but I did run as one. That's one of the few judges
01:13:44.340 --> 01:13:57.649
and school boards you can cross -file. Wendy
01:13:57.649 --> 01:14:01.090
Fink run against Gillespie and Saylor. Oh, yeah,
01:14:01.090 --> 01:14:02.850
that was a fun â we didn't â I forgot about that
01:14:02.850 --> 01:14:05.229
one. Yeah, I came out against two incumbent Republicans,
01:14:05.470 --> 01:14:08.130
one 30 years, a probes chair, third most powerful
01:14:08.130 --> 01:14:12.310
guy in the House. That was Saylor, and the other
01:14:12.310 --> 01:14:14.329
one was a 20 -year. Not so much against them
01:14:14.329 --> 01:14:16.510
as it was in favor of Wendy and Joe. Now, those
01:14:16.510 --> 01:14:19.470
were Republicans. conservative republicans running
01:14:19.470 --> 01:14:21.789
against establishment republicans in the primary
01:14:21.789 --> 01:14:25.270
and apparently that is frowned upon chad for
01:14:25.270 --> 01:14:27.170
us i was just gonna say because the republican
01:14:27.170 --> 01:14:29.729
the republican committee attempted to censor
01:14:29.729 --> 01:14:33.109
you uh the only republican committee tried to
01:14:33.109 --> 01:14:35.630
censor me that vote failed in the house they
01:14:35.630 --> 01:14:37.710
stripped me of three of my committee three of
01:14:37.710 --> 01:14:39.550
my four committees and they moved me up in the
01:14:39.550 --> 01:14:41.829
front row beside the democrats at the time we
01:14:41.829 --> 01:14:44.649
had a majority so we bled over slightly across
01:14:44.649 --> 01:14:47.079
the aisle So they put me in the front row by
01:14:47.079 --> 01:14:49.560
myself adjacent to the Democrats. I thought they
01:14:49.560 --> 01:14:51.199
were going to try to fit me with a dunce cap.
01:14:52.199 --> 01:14:55.140
But we won both of those elections handily, by
01:14:55.140 --> 01:14:57.680
the way. And a lot of that was the lack of response.
01:14:57.699 --> 01:15:02.579
That was a consequence of the lack of. responsiveness
01:15:02.579 --> 01:15:05.539
on COVID and a couple of other issues. My conscience
01:15:05.539 --> 01:15:08.000
would not allow me not to endorse those two.
01:15:08.180 --> 01:15:11.579
It was a great example of American democracy
01:15:11.579 --> 01:15:14.359
at work, and I say this in the most complimentary
01:15:14.359 --> 01:15:18.579
of ways, two really totally unknown candidates
01:15:18.579 --> 01:15:22.250
who were grassroots and had had enough. and defeated
01:15:22.250 --> 01:15:25.390
two longstanding incumbents, one of whom spent
01:15:25.390 --> 01:15:29.989
$500 ,000 against Wendy to end up losing by 11
01:15:29.989 --> 01:15:33.029
points. So, yeah, I was at Round the Clock Diner
01:15:33.029 --> 01:15:36.170
with some business folks behind me, and we had
01:15:36.170 --> 01:15:38.630
a couple of the news stations there, and I endorsed
01:15:38.630 --> 01:15:40.729
them publicly a week or so before the election,
01:15:40.850 --> 01:15:42.510
and we had a mailer go out. I don't know if they
01:15:42.510 --> 01:15:44.430
needed me or not, but they had worked so hard,
01:15:44.449 --> 01:15:47.739
and I thought they... They earned it. I think
01:15:47.739 --> 01:15:49.859
an endorsement shouldn't be vote for me because
01:15:49.859 --> 01:15:52.000
this guy endorsed me. I think it should come
01:15:52.000 --> 01:15:54.699
â it's a little more of a guy like myself saying,
01:15:54.800 --> 01:15:57.359
hey, these people have earned your vote. They've
01:15:57.359 --> 01:16:01.000
worked hard. So that was â yeah, that was another
01:16:01.000 --> 01:16:05.760
feather ruffler there. I was just going to say,
01:16:05.859 --> 01:16:10.439
it's just â I found it compelling because the
01:16:10.439 --> 01:16:12.800
Republicans decided to censure you. It's like,
01:16:12.880 --> 01:16:16.310
okay, I just â I just endorsed a couple people
01:16:16.310 --> 01:16:18.170
running against the incumbents. Is this what
01:16:18.170 --> 01:16:21.510
happens? You get censured for that? Like luckily
01:16:21.510 --> 01:16:24.090
I failed, but yeah, it's just ridiculous. No,
01:16:24.210 --> 01:16:25.550
that's a great â and that's the thing. That's
01:16:25.550 --> 01:16:28.449
the establishment. You're talking about a guy
01:16:28.449 --> 01:16:30.970
that was ranked the most conservative legislator
01:16:30.970 --> 01:16:32.890
in the state, House or Senate, and I think it
01:16:32.890 --> 01:16:37.619
was 2019 and 2020 or 20 and 21 regardless. There's
01:16:37.619 --> 01:16:41.619
no â you can critique a lot of things, and I
01:16:41.619 --> 01:16:43.760
got a lot of shortcomings, but you can't critique
01:16:43.760 --> 01:16:45.899
my conservative â there's not â it's pretty hard
01:16:45.899 --> 01:16:48.439
to challenge my conservative Republican credentials,
01:16:48.779 --> 01:16:53.159
but the establishment did not like the pushback
01:16:53.159 --> 01:16:55.640
on a couple of their own. So that's how that
01:16:55.640 --> 01:17:00.659
goes down too. Yeah, and that's also part of
01:17:00.659 --> 01:17:03.239
the problem in politics in general is like even
01:17:03.239 --> 01:17:05.899
within your own party, if you're trying, you
01:17:05.899 --> 01:17:08.420
don't â There's someone that you think is not
01:17:08.420 --> 01:17:11.699
fit to be in office anymore or didn't react a
01:17:11.699 --> 01:17:14.340
certain way that they should have. You endorse
01:17:14.340 --> 01:17:16.739
someone against them, and even your own party
01:17:16.739 --> 01:17:21.079
gets pissed off. There was another issue. I won't
01:17:21.079 --> 01:17:25.779
take you down that path. There was an issue with
01:17:25.779 --> 01:17:28.199
funding at the University of Pittsburgh who we
01:17:28.199 --> 01:17:30.880
called doing barbaric research on abortions.
01:17:31.039 --> 01:17:33.279
And regardless of what you think about abortion,
01:17:33.600 --> 01:17:35.920
that was, I said, you know, look, I love research,
01:17:36.060 --> 01:17:38.159
but we're not this desperate for research, regardless
01:17:38.159 --> 01:17:42.840
of what you think about choice. But a lot of
01:17:42.840 --> 01:17:46.119
it was, we talked early on about the response
01:17:46.119 --> 01:17:49.000
to COVID or lack thereof. And what I found is,
01:17:49.079 --> 01:17:50.979
you know, we needed warriors and we had legislators.
01:17:52.840 --> 01:17:55.439
Another principle from business is like, you
01:17:55.439 --> 01:17:57.460
know, look, it's not personal. You know, in that
01:17:57.460 --> 01:17:59.439
case, I like those guys personally. If they were
01:17:59.439 --> 01:18:01.239
broke down along the side of the road, I'd pull
01:18:01.239 --> 01:18:05.720
over and help them out. But, you know, you campaigned
01:18:05.720 --> 01:18:07.779
on some things. I didn't see the follow through.
01:18:08.239 --> 01:18:11.340
And, you know, it's business, man. I got to call
01:18:11.340 --> 01:18:13.779
it like I see it, you know. And these other people
01:18:13.779 --> 01:18:15.800
earned the endorsement, in my opinion. They've
01:18:15.800 --> 01:18:18.800
both been doing a great job up here. That's awesome.
01:18:19.320 --> 01:18:21.579
Luckily they won or it would have been real miserable
01:18:21.579 --> 01:18:27.140
for me. Even worse. It's just refreshing to see
01:18:27.140 --> 01:18:29.260
that we have politicians in there going against
01:18:29.260 --> 01:18:31.659
the establishment and going for the people because
01:18:31.659 --> 01:18:34.180
we see a lot of it going the other way a lot
01:18:34.180 --> 01:18:37.560
of times. We've got to applaud you and we need
01:18:37.560 --> 01:18:40.300
more people like you in the political arena.
01:18:40.880 --> 01:18:43.779
Thank you for fighting a good fight, man. Exactly.
01:18:44.300 --> 01:18:46.439
appreciate it thank you for having me and you
01:18:46.439 --> 01:18:48.220
know your your name summarized that you guys
01:18:48.220 --> 01:18:50.260
have been very gracious to me and i apologize
01:18:50.260 --> 01:18:52.479
if i got long -winded on you a couple times i
01:18:52.479 --> 01:18:57.560
know what you're doing um i gotta i gotta put
01:18:57.560 --> 01:19:00.260
i chad and i talked a couple weeks ago but uh
01:19:00.260 --> 01:19:03.199
i uh i'm a big rush fan and we were talking a
01:19:03.199 --> 01:19:05.260
little bit about i know i have no musical ability
01:19:05.260 --> 01:19:06.840
at all but we were talking a little bit about
01:19:06.840 --> 01:19:08.699
neil peart and i had to get who i think's the
01:19:08.699 --> 01:19:11.579
greatest drummer ever but uh You're talking,
01:19:11.659 --> 01:19:13.880
you know, Neil gave a shout out in Rolling Stone
01:19:13.880 --> 01:19:16.300
to Chad saying how much he loved his drumming.
01:19:16.319 --> 01:19:19.619
And I certainly love the music you guys put out.
01:19:19.680 --> 01:19:21.800
So it's an honor for me to be here, too. And
01:19:21.800 --> 01:19:25.119
I love seeing guys from York. You know, you know,
01:19:25.199 --> 01:19:26.960
you guys went a long way in putting us on the
01:19:26.960 --> 01:19:29.659
map. So certainly music. So we appreciate that.
01:19:30.010 --> 01:19:33.050
Well, we got a little heat for shit town, but
01:19:33.050 --> 01:19:36.270
hey. Yeah, I thought maybe you could have cut
01:19:36.270 --> 01:19:39.569
that one off. We always would tell in interviews
01:19:39.569 --> 01:19:42.449
and stuff. You got to be authentic. We would
01:19:42.449 --> 01:19:44.350
always say Ed was living in Lancaster when he
01:19:44.350 --> 01:19:48.310
wrote those lyrics. The way around it. That's
01:19:48.310 --> 01:19:50.789
right. You were younger then. You got a little
01:19:50.789 --> 01:19:54.090
life experience. Well, yeah, exactly. When you
01:19:54.090 --> 01:19:58.010
grow up in a small town like York and you just
01:19:58.010 --> 01:20:00.689
want to get out as a kid, And then you get out
01:20:00.689 --> 01:20:01.949
and you can see the rest of the world and you're
01:20:01.949 --> 01:20:03.930
like, man, this place is kind of â it's kind
01:20:03.930 --> 01:20:06.529
of messed up in its own little ways. But then
01:20:06.529 --> 01:20:08.409
you always â you want to go back. I love coming
01:20:08.409 --> 01:20:10.890
back home now when I come to see my mom. Well,
01:20:10.890 --> 01:20:12.529
you know what? I tell people real quickly on
01:20:12.529 --> 01:20:14.890
that, and it used to be a pretty big deal because
01:20:14.890 --> 01:20:17.329
we were always trying to recruit talent into
01:20:17.329 --> 01:20:19.960
our company. And I would, two quick things, two
01:20:19.960 --> 01:20:22.220
ways of saying the same thing, but York was never
01:20:22.220 --> 01:20:24.619
a great recruiting vehicle, but it was a great
01:20:24.619 --> 01:20:26.920
retention vehicle because once people got there,
01:20:27.000 --> 01:20:29.140
it's a great, the other way I put that is I've
01:20:29.140 --> 01:20:31.979
seen many places I'd rather visit because I was
01:20:31.979 --> 01:20:33.720
blessed to travel the country. And as I said
01:20:33.720 --> 01:20:36.430
earlier, to some extent, the world. I've seen
01:20:36.430 --> 01:20:38.609
many places I'd rather visit, but no place I'd
01:20:38.609 --> 01:20:40.909
rather live. You know, it is a great place to,
01:20:40.930 --> 01:20:42.649
you know, to raise a family and that sort of
01:20:42.649 --> 01:20:45.170
thing. You know, if you're on the other hand,
01:20:45.210 --> 01:20:47.670
if you're a single guy at 25, it's probably not,
01:20:47.710 --> 01:20:52.850
you know, not your first choice. But anyway,
01:20:52.989 --> 01:20:56.869
no, but I, yeah, we're all, you know, it goes
01:20:56.869 --> 01:20:58.850
without saying, we're all super proud of all
01:20:58.850 --> 01:21:00.789
that you guys accomplished. Wow. Well, thank
01:21:00.789 --> 01:21:03.949
you. Thank you. Super proud of what you're doing.
01:21:04.359 --> 01:21:09.699
we are absolutely yeah uh thank you sir mr mike

at any other time uh and it was jasmine rivera
01:21:14.600 --> 01:21:16.659
is what we told the gracious audience to go out
01:21:16.659 --> 01:21:19.880
there and vote come november correct yes yes
01:21:19.880 --> 01:21:23.199
yes i kind of recruited her to run and i think
01:21:23.199 --> 01:21:25.020
she's been she's been working her butt off at
01:21:25.020 --> 01:21:28.300
last check she had knocked over 5 000 doors uh
01:21:28.300 --> 01:21:32.369
so very hard working and also uh Also humble
01:21:32.369 --> 01:21:37.170
and eager to learn. And yeah, she's got a tremendous
01:21:37.170 --> 01:21:39.869
amount of respect for her. You're awesome, dude.
01:21:39.949 --> 01:21:41.710
Again, thank you so much for coming on. We're
01:21:41.710 --> 01:21:43.350
going to have you on again in the future if you're
01:21:43.350 --> 01:21:46.289
willing to come on. And thank you, Mr. Mike Jones,

a good one, man. Thanks again. all right so the
01:22:02.529 --> 01:22:06.390
mr mike jones there awesome dude man wow refreshing
01:22:06.390 --> 01:22:09.770
chad that was a great great uh guest that you
01:22:09.770 --> 01:22:11.810
got on here man and that was refreshing to to
01:22:11.810 --> 01:22:13.829
realize that we have people like that fighting
01:22:13.829 --> 01:22:16.369
for us well you know you have people that talk
01:22:16.369 --> 01:22:18.250
about conviction and then they have people that
01:22:18.250 --> 01:22:21.340
are can you know that that do things and Right.
01:22:21.359 --> 01:22:23.800
Obviously, him just going against his own party
01:22:23.800 --> 01:22:25.960
to bring in people that he thinks are better
01:22:25.960 --> 01:22:29.140
qualified for the job than the incumbents. Sure.
01:22:29.220 --> 01:22:31.340
And, you know, going against the party line.
01:22:31.760 --> 01:22:34.119
That's that's a big that's a big deal. Like most
01:22:34.119 --> 01:22:36.640
most politicians won't do that. They don't want
01:22:36.640 --> 01:22:38.720
to risk the censure. They don't want to risk
01:22:38.720 --> 01:22:41.239
pissing off the establishment. But he's like,
01:22:41.319 --> 01:22:43.500
fuck it. We need good people in here to represent
01:22:43.500 --> 01:22:46.659
the people of your county. Right. Well, the fact
01:22:46.659 --> 01:22:49.430
that. The fact that he's fighting for term limits,
01:22:49.430 --> 01:22:51.789
too, it shows that he's not in this for himself.
01:22:51.949 --> 01:22:55.050
He's in the six problems that he sees, which
01:22:55.050 --> 01:22:58.569
is what a politician is meant to do. You know,
01:22:58.590 --> 01:23:00.630
that right there, that first thing that he tried
01:23:00.630 --> 01:23:03.489
to do when going into office shows like where
01:23:03.489 --> 01:23:06.670
his morals lie and like why he's doing this job.
01:23:07.010 --> 01:23:10.270
It's a great idea, though, to to even even on
01:23:10.270 --> 01:23:13.229
a national scale to, you know. vote for term
01:23:13.229 --> 01:23:15.329
limits but the incumbents get to stay in until
01:23:15.329 --> 01:23:18.050
they either retire or vote it out i mean who
01:23:18.050 --> 01:23:20.090
i don't know who will vote against that right
01:23:20.090 --> 01:23:21.470
if you're if you're an incumbent why would you
01:23:21.470 --> 01:23:23.489
vote against that if you're if you're staying
01:23:23.489 --> 01:23:27.569
in until you're voted out or you retire right
01:23:27.569 --> 01:23:30.210
because they're grandfathered in right yeah i
01:23:30.210 --> 01:23:32.189
don't know that's a great it's i just had never
01:23:32.189 --> 01:23:34.529
even thought about that as one of being one of
01:23:34.529 --> 01:23:36.930
the uh ways to get term limits installed but
01:23:37.680 --> 01:23:39.319
Hopefully that works. It would be great if he
01:23:39.319 --> 01:23:41.739
if he if he leads an effort in Pennsylvania and
01:23:41.739 --> 01:23:43.640
gets that installed, that could maybe be a roadmap
01:23:43.640 --> 01:23:46.340
for the rest of the country. It'd be great. One
01:23:46.340 --> 01:23:47.819
hundred percent. I guess the reason why you would
01:23:47.819 --> 01:23:51.000
fight that is because you want to die in that
01:23:51.000 --> 01:23:53.840
office and then have that seat passed down to
01:23:53.840 --> 01:23:56.439
whoever, whatever other puppet you could put
01:23:56.439 --> 01:23:59.060
in there. Right. Have them go forever with no
01:23:59.060 --> 01:24:01.739
term. It's like so another an evil thing and
01:24:01.739 --> 01:24:05.479
a selfish thing to do is why you would go against
01:24:05.479 --> 01:24:07.539
it. Right. Of course. Otherwise, it makes no
01:24:07.539 --> 01:24:10.640
sense. It's just crazy that I think that's what
01:24:10.640 --> 01:24:13.000
a lot of maybe that's what a lot of people are
01:24:13.000 --> 01:24:15.939
locking or lacking is the common sense portion
01:24:15.939 --> 01:24:19.079
of intelligence where they have all book smarts
01:24:19.079 --> 01:24:20.779
and stuff like that, but they can't look at stuff
01:24:20.779 --> 01:24:26.199
commonsensically, if that's a word, and lay it
01:24:26.199 --> 01:24:29.380
out there. I just, you know, common sense goes
01:24:29.380 --> 01:24:31.260
a long way, man. Whether you could read a book
01:24:31.260 --> 01:24:33.859
and memorize it and regurgitate those facts.
01:24:34.380 --> 01:24:36.600
Do you actually understand it? Does it make sense
01:24:36.600 --> 01:24:38.840
to you? Right. It would have been great if the
01:24:38.840 --> 01:24:40.800
founding fathers would have put that in the Constitution
01:24:40.800 --> 01:24:44.600
to begin with term limits. But as Mike said and
01:24:44.600 --> 01:24:46.579
has been pointed out many times is that they
01:24:46.579 --> 01:24:50.159
didn't even â when they were framing the â forming
01:24:50.159 --> 01:24:53.399
the country and writing the Constitution, they
01:24:53.399 --> 01:24:56.500
didn't even think that people would want to make
01:24:56.500 --> 01:24:58.630
this a career to be representative. It wasn't
01:24:58.630 --> 01:25:01.350
even a thought in their mind. Like, I'm a farmer.
01:25:01.430 --> 01:25:03.489
I'm a businessman. I want to go serve the country
01:25:03.489 --> 01:25:05.609
for a couple years and come back and do my business.
01:25:06.470 --> 01:25:09.189
Now it's a career. That's what's really bad about
01:25:09.189 --> 01:25:12.930
it. Yeah, and that's what breeds this shit is
01:25:12.930 --> 01:25:15.869
that the career politicians that are just out
01:25:15.869 --> 01:25:18.289
for themselves and doing all that jazz. Yep.
01:25:18.810 --> 01:25:21.770
Mr. Bobby, if you want to come on and unmute.
01:25:21.869 --> 01:25:24.329
Bobby was coming in and out, so I don't know.
01:25:24.369 --> 01:25:26.470
Yeah, he kept doing cameos. Yeah. What's up?
01:25:26.989 --> 01:25:29.529
Nah, I was having a little issue with my internet.
01:25:30.390 --> 01:25:35.250
What up, man? Hey, hey. Look at that hair. So
01:25:35.250 --> 01:25:41.289
you heard this about Puff Diddy. Stevie Wonder
01:25:41.289 --> 01:25:45.329
come out. Stevie Wonder said some shit? Or he's
01:25:45.329 --> 01:25:48.050
defending Diddy? He's defending Diddy. He said
01:25:48.050 --> 01:25:51.489
he didn't see anything legal. Bobby's got jokes.
01:25:51.590 --> 01:25:57.090
Hey, hey. Well, there is a conspiracy theory
01:25:57.090 --> 01:26:01.310
that he's actually has psyched. Nah, it was a
01:26:01.310 --> 01:26:05.430
joke. Let me bring this up with Bernie Sanders.
01:26:05.630 --> 01:26:08.489
This shit is crazy. Is it what I was talking
01:26:08.489 --> 01:26:10.569
about, Bobby? About where that lady said that
01:26:10.569 --> 01:26:14.210
she was... Yeah, man. This is a gracious audience
01:26:14.210 --> 01:26:16.689
out there. Wait till you get a hold of this because
01:26:16.689 --> 01:26:21.569
this is insane what we're about to show you.
01:26:21.630 --> 01:26:24.199
And if this is the way stuff went down... like
01:26:24.199 --> 01:26:26.500
chad was saying it opens up a whole slew of things
01:26:26.500 --> 01:26:30.060
that uh you know we need to be focused on yeah
01:26:30.060 --> 01:26:32.479
it just shows you what's great the basement to
01:26:32.479 --> 01:26:35.640
be violated while i was being raped a man was
01:26:35.640 --> 01:26:38.319
dragged downstairs and was told to rape a boy
01:26:38.319 --> 01:26:40.039
that was bent over in front of him where they
01:26:40.039 --> 01:26:43.939
would kill the man and his family who were lined
01:26:43.939 --> 01:26:46.060
up along the wall where there was also a man
01:26:46.060 --> 01:26:49.449
behind a camera on a tripod Someone else came
01:26:49.449 --> 01:26:51.470
up to him and told him if you don't do it, they
01:26:51.470 --> 01:26:54.229
will kill your family and nothing can undo that.
01:26:54.350 --> 01:26:57.149
But if you do it, it'll be fine because that
01:26:57.149 --> 01:27:00.850
boy is used to it. No one has to die. To date,
01:27:00.970 --> 01:27:02.710
that's the hardest I've ever seen a grown man
01:27:02.710 --> 01:27:05.829
cry. That man is currently sitting in Congress.
01:27:06.649 --> 01:27:09.529
There is a system of bribery and blackmail controlling
01:27:09.529 --> 01:27:12.810
the upper echelons of society. The question is
01:27:12.810 --> 01:27:15.310
if someone did the deed. with a smile on their
01:27:15.310 --> 01:27:17.390
face because they knew their fortunes would improve,
01:27:17.729 --> 01:27:19.670
or if they did it with a tear in their eye because
01:27:19.670 --> 01:27:21.869
they didn't want to hurt the child. The only
01:27:21.869 --> 01:27:23.930
way we'll be able to expose it is if the black
01:27:23.930 --> 01:27:25.949
males and the children come together to name
01:27:25.949 --> 01:27:30.210
those who forced us. And it went crazy. As soon
01:27:30.210 --> 01:27:32.470
as people saw this, I mean, you can see right
01:27:32.470 --> 01:27:36.050
here. Just so folks are aware what that was.
01:27:37.090 --> 01:27:40.569
So that was a lady who was on Epstein's Island
01:27:40.569 --> 01:27:43.779
that witnessed this firsthand. and she was giving
01:27:43.779 --> 01:27:47.539
her account of what she saw firsthand, and she
01:27:47.539 --> 01:27:50.319
was speaking about Bernie Sanders. I was going
01:27:50.319 --> 01:27:52.960
to say, did she mention his name in that interview,
01:27:53.060 --> 01:27:55.920
or how do we know it's Bernie Sanders? Yeah,
01:27:55.979 --> 01:27:59.520
it says it at the top. If you didn't see it,
01:27:59.579 --> 01:28:01.300
it says it at the top. Well, I saw it at the
01:28:01.300 --> 01:28:04.180
top, but did she mention his name? Did she say
01:28:04.180 --> 01:28:06.380
his name? Yeah, so I think that was a shorter
01:28:06.380 --> 01:28:08.659
clip, Chad, because it's from a full podcast
01:28:08.659 --> 01:28:12.100
thing. Okay. clip reposted somewhere uh so i
01:28:12.100 --> 01:28:14.140
think if you go to the full podcast of it that's
01:28:14.140 --> 01:28:18.600
where uh the name comes out um but yeah i mean
01:28:18.600 --> 01:28:20.439
like like she said like if you're doing it with
01:28:20.439 --> 01:28:22.760
a tear in your eye or a laugh on your face it's
01:28:22.760 --> 01:28:26.500
just either way it's going on uh chad and i were
01:28:26.500 --> 01:28:29.279
speaking about this beforehand like gun to my
01:28:29.279 --> 01:28:32.520
head you're telling me to rape a boy uh my privates
01:28:32.520 --> 01:28:34.960
are not working to do that so well it's not even
01:28:34.960 --> 01:28:37.779
gun to his head it was his whole apparently his
01:28:37.779 --> 01:28:40.159
family was there too Right, right, right, right.
01:28:40.239 --> 01:28:41.359
Well, I don't know if the family was there or
01:28:41.359 --> 01:28:43.319
they were going to do it later, go kill the family
01:28:43.319 --> 01:28:44.899
later. I thought she said they were lined up
01:28:44.899 --> 01:28:48.760
against the wall in front of them. Either way,
01:28:48.800 --> 01:28:51.640
it's fucked up. Yeah, that's what she said. She
01:28:51.640 --> 01:28:56.319
said they were there. Wow. Hey, let's take the
01:28:56.319 --> 01:28:59.300
whole family down to the islands. Get on the
01:28:59.300 --> 01:29:02.380
private jet. Now you're in the basement with
01:29:02.380 --> 01:29:05.560
the guns to your head. Papa has to fuck the boy
01:29:05.560 --> 01:29:07.739
or we're all dying. Like, what the fuck, dude?
01:29:07.819 --> 01:29:12.680
This is insane. I mean, it's wild. Sorry, Chad,
01:29:12.800 --> 01:29:14.319
because this is directed towards you, Chad. So
01:29:14.319 --> 01:29:16.920
it's like, let's just say you were there, family
01:29:16.920 --> 01:29:20.560
there, right? You're forced to do this, and you
01:29:20.560 --> 01:29:22.159
do it because you don't want your family dead,
01:29:22.319 --> 01:29:24.619
and they figure out a way to fucking get your
01:29:24.619 --> 01:29:28.420
shit to do it. Now, when you get off that island,
01:29:28.699 --> 01:29:32.800
do you not try to track down FBI or somebody
01:29:32.800 --> 01:29:35.319
and take a stand because you know this is going
01:29:35.319 --> 01:29:38.670
to happen to other people and say, listen. I
01:29:38.670 --> 01:29:41.010
know I might go to jail for the rest of my life.
01:29:41.069 --> 01:29:45.210
I don't know. I don't know. The theory is that
01:29:45.210 --> 01:29:48.510
Epstein had infiltrated all the way up to the
01:29:48.510 --> 01:29:51.609
top. Who are you going to go tell? Yeah, exactly.
01:29:53.010 --> 01:29:56.869
Who are you going to go tell? I can't even imagine
01:29:56.869 --> 01:29:58.850
being in that situation to make that fucking
01:29:58.850 --> 01:30:01.550
decision. I guess there is no decision. You don't
01:30:01.550 --> 01:30:02.829
want your family to be shot in front of you.
01:30:03.010 --> 01:30:07.319
Right. it's just nuts, man. Like it's fucked.
01:30:07.340 --> 01:30:09.300
And like you said, yeah. Infiltrated to the,
01:30:09.319 --> 01:30:11.720
to the fullest amount. So like if he goes to
01:30:11.720 --> 01:30:14.140
the FBI and does it, then all of a sudden this
01:30:14.140 --> 01:30:17.140
tape gets out of him with a boy. Now he's in
01:30:17.140 --> 01:30:19.180
jail for the rest of his life. His story doesn't
01:30:19.180 --> 01:30:22.420
get out anyway. It's like, it's just insane,
01:30:22.739 --> 01:30:26.359
man. Did you hear about all the GHB he had in
01:30:26.359 --> 01:30:29.380
the, in the baby oil? I did hear. I saw that
01:30:29.380 --> 01:30:32.689
somewhere. Yeah. The baby oil had GHB in it,
01:30:32.729 --> 01:30:37.829
so. Intramuscular, yeah. Yeah, I heard he was
01:30:37.829 --> 01:30:41.529
dropping, like, ketamine into drinks and stuff
01:30:41.529 --> 01:30:45.590
like that. Like, what the fuck, man? He's got,
01:30:45.609 --> 01:30:49.689
like, 200 charges or something. It's crazy. He
01:30:49.689 --> 01:30:51.909
maintains his innocence. He's going to fight
01:30:51.909 --> 01:30:53.869
for his innocence. Yeah, okay, that's what his
01:30:53.869 --> 01:30:57.239
lawyer keeps saying. Yeah, well, he's just barking
01:30:57.239 --> 01:31:00.000
that he's going to spew names out so that they
01:31:00.000 --> 01:31:03.539
don't, I don't know, go through fully with this.
01:31:03.600 --> 01:31:05.500
I don't know, man, how this situation is going
01:31:05.500 --> 01:31:08.239
to end or if it's like, is Diddy just going to
01:31:08.239 --> 01:31:11.060
end up dead somewhere and he killed himself?
01:31:11.420 --> 01:31:15.020
I wouldn't be surprised if that happens. It's
01:31:15.020 --> 01:31:17.600
just crazy, Chad. Like, how is nobody answering?
01:31:17.920 --> 01:31:20.140
Like, how is Ghislaine the only one in jail for
01:31:20.140 --> 01:31:22.399
the whole Epstein thing? We don't have answers
01:31:22.399 --> 01:31:25.239
of people who were there. They have proof and
01:31:25.239 --> 01:31:27.199
all this stuff, and we know that this island
01:31:27.199 --> 01:31:30.460
existed now. So it's like, where is this investigation?
01:31:30.640 --> 01:31:32.819
Is there an investigation into any of this, or
01:31:32.819 --> 01:31:35.760
is it just dropped? I think it's dropped. And
01:31:35.760 --> 01:31:38.600
like I said, you still have people that probably
01:31:38.600 --> 01:31:40.760
participated in this stuff that are still in
01:31:40.760 --> 01:31:43.920
those upper echelons of government. Like, who's
01:31:43.920 --> 01:31:47.100
going to prosecute it? Right. Uh -oh, we lost
01:31:47.100 --> 01:31:51.119
Bobby again. Damn. Bobby's having technical difficulties.
01:31:51.479 --> 01:31:55.680
Another cameo. Yeah. Gone wrong. Well, that's
01:31:55.680 --> 01:31:58.159
about our show. We usually take it to an hour
01:31:58.159 --> 01:32:00.659
30, hour 40 ish, but we'll keep it going here
01:32:00.659 --> 01:32:03.840
for a little bit. It's just crazy, man. The world
01:32:03.840 --> 01:32:06.760
is falling, going to hell in a handbag, as they
01:32:06.760 --> 01:32:09.640
say. And it's like, you just don't know where
01:32:09.640 --> 01:32:11.960
to go to, to fight the good fight, except for
01:32:11.960 --> 01:32:15.140
like what we're doing here is like bringing awareness
01:32:15.140 --> 01:32:17.840
to this stuff and having conversations about
01:32:17.840 --> 01:32:20.619
it and asking the questions. I think that's how.
01:32:21.229 --> 01:32:23.949
We get out of this stuff. The podcast format
01:32:23.949 --> 01:32:26.789
is pushing the envelope on all this. I mean,
01:32:26.909 --> 01:32:31.010
you know, Sean Ryan, fucking Joe Rogan, all those
01:32:31.010 --> 01:32:34.250
upper echelon podcasts are great because you
01:32:34.250 --> 01:32:37.090
can have, you know, people come on and tell long
01:32:37.090 --> 01:32:39.210
-form stories about why they believe in things
01:32:39.210 --> 01:32:41.350
or what they're doing, what they're fighting
01:32:41.350 --> 01:32:45.890
against, and it's not watered down by the mainstream
01:32:45.890 --> 01:32:47.949
media with the gotcha questions and bullshit.
01:32:48.489 --> 01:32:52.399
Right. It's just... Uh -oh. Go ahead, Bobby.
01:32:53.159 --> 01:32:55.239
No, I was just going to say I'm sorry about my
01:32:55.239 --> 01:32:57.020
internet. I don't know why it keeps going off
01:32:57.020 --> 01:32:59.140
and on. I think this Florida shit is affecting
01:32:59.140 --> 01:33:05.060
me. Already? Either that or they know when Bobby's
01:33:05.060 --> 01:33:08.979
World comes up, you're going to uncover some...
01:33:08.979 --> 01:33:13.000
You got to get Starlink, buddy. That's right.
01:33:13.479 --> 01:33:15.720
For real, I'm about to get something different.
01:33:15.939 --> 01:33:19.489
This shit is bullshit. What's next to that guitar,
01:33:19.630 --> 01:33:21.409
Bobby? Is that a bat? It looks like some sort
01:33:21.409 --> 01:33:23.470
of weapon in between the guitars. Yes, it is.
01:33:23.510 --> 01:33:28.090
It's a rifle. All right. Bobby's right to bear
01:33:28.090 --> 01:33:31.369
arms. A BB gun? It's just a BB gun, bro. I was
01:33:31.369 --> 01:33:34.670
going to say, yeah. It's an airsoft. That's a
01:33:34.670 --> 01:33:38.470
Red Ryder. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Shoot your eye out,
01:33:38.510 --> 01:33:41.010
kid. Hell yeah, Will. This shit will hurt, bro.
01:33:41.810 --> 01:33:43.829
I was just going to say. I've used that BB gun
01:33:43.829 --> 01:33:46.739
fights at my buddy's house. Yo, that shit hurts.
01:33:46.819 --> 01:33:49.279
You get shot in the ass with that? Yeah, you
01:33:49.279 --> 01:33:52.560
don't want to get shot. We were playing BB gun
01:33:52.560 --> 01:33:57.539
fights at my buddy Josh's house. No base coverings,
01:33:57.539 --> 01:34:01.500
no masks. My cousin actually got killed by one,
01:34:01.560 --> 01:34:04.340
bro. Oh, wow. He got killed at nine years old.
01:34:04.420 --> 01:34:06.800
His friend, he didn't know the BB was in the
01:34:06.800 --> 01:34:09.880
gun. He pointed it directly to his chest and
01:34:09.880 --> 01:34:12.720
he pulled the trigger. He killed him. What, in
01:34:12.720 --> 01:34:16.840
his heart? Yeah. Oh, fuck. Nine years old, bro.
01:34:17.000 --> 01:34:19.819
Damn. What the fuck BB gun did you guys have
01:34:19.819 --> 01:34:22.819
that was that powerful and penetrable? Yeah,
01:34:22.899 --> 01:34:27.500
that was in Virginia. Yeah. Wow. Crazy. That's
01:34:27.500 --> 01:34:29.060
unfortunate. You guys must have done some mods
01:34:29.060 --> 01:34:32.119
to that thing. Yeah, that is unfortunate. I got
01:34:32.119 --> 01:34:37.039
some other stuff. I have some this hyperbolic
01:34:37.039 --> 01:34:40.939
chamber. Yeah. Hyperbaric? Yeah, hyperbaric chamber
01:34:40.939 --> 01:34:46.010
for like home use. Oh, sweet. I have great experience
01:34:46.010 --> 01:34:47.430
with hyperbaric chambers. That's how I healed
01:34:47.430 --> 01:34:50.850
my tricep tendon. Yeah, you can see it. Yeah,
01:34:51.649 --> 01:34:53.949
and they have a bunch of them. I mean, they have
01:34:53.949 --> 01:34:59.970
a bunch of them where you can buy them. Rogan
01:34:59.970 --> 01:35:03.250
was just saying that if you do a hyperbaric chamber,
01:35:03.390 --> 01:35:07.109
that it could almost raise your life expectancy
01:35:07.109 --> 01:35:11.180
by 20 years. Oh, it does, yeah. It's great for
01:35:11.180 --> 01:35:14.060
inflammation, for healing. It's amazing. And
01:35:14.060 --> 01:35:16.460
that's what I did for my tricep. I tore my right
01:35:16.460 --> 01:35:20.539
tricep 90%. I did testosterone injections and
01:35:20.539 --> 01:35:22.800
hyperbaric chamber. That's how I healed it. And
01:35:22.800 --> 01:35:26.199
it's amazing that more, well, again. No surgery.
01:35:27.119 --> 01:35:30.680
Well, that's the thing, Chad, is the medical
01:35:30.680 --> 01:35:33.659
field doesn't want you doing things like that
01:35:33.659 --> 01:35:35.760
because then you lose out a slice of that pie.
01:35:36.199 --> 01:35:40.630
Exactly. Is there anything more evil than that?
01:35:40.649 --> 01:35:43.970
And how do you combat that shit to where we're
01:35:43.970 --> 01:35:46.789
actually getting what's best for us and what's
01:35:46.789 --> 01:35:51.590
not best for somebody's pockets? We need to fight
01:35:51.590 --> 01:35:53.729
back. That's why there's no cure for cancer.
01:35:54.510 --> 01:35:58.609
Yeah, right. There's cures. I mean, no accepted
01:35:58.609 --> 01:36:00.810
cure from the medical establishment because they
01:36:00.810 --> 01:36:03.869
don't want a cure. I mean, look at Magic Johnson,
01:36:04.090 --> 01:36:08.350
bro. Dude has age 50 years almost. Right. He's
01:36:08.350 --> 01:36:12.590
fine, you know? Crazy. I think AIDS now is a
01:36:12.590 --> 01:36:14.449
lot more treatable than it once was, but yeah,
01:36:14.470 --> 01:36:16.090
he was like the first one where you're like,
01:36:16.210 --> 01:36:18.890
what the fuck? Well, I mean, okay, now you're
01:36:18.890 --> 01:36:21.270
getting into Fauci territory here. Fauci was
01:36:21.270 --> 01:36:26.390
the doctor pushing AZT on all the guys, the gay
01:36:26.390 --> 01:36:29.829
men that had it, and killing them. That was his
01:36:29.829 --> 01:36:32.109
baby. And then you put him in charge of COVID,
01:36:32.170 --> 01:36:34.029
and look what happened. Fauci's a real piece
01:36:34.029 --> 01:36:36.500
of shit. He's a fucking piece of shit. That was
01:36:36.500 --> 01:36:38.899
my conspiracy theory about AIDS back in the day
01:36:38.899 --> 01:36:43.060
is that they released it to, uh, cause at first
01:36:43.060 --> 01:36:44.460
when it was coming out, they were saying, Oh,
01:36:44.500 --> 01:36:46.760
it's only in the gay community. So I think initially
01:36:46.760 --> 01:36:50.039
they released it thinking it would stay in the
01:36:50.039 --> 01:36:51.840
gay community. Then they realized, Oh, it's sexually
01:36:51.840 --> 01:36:54.779
transmitted, not only from penis to butthole,
01:36:54.859 --> 01:36:57.239
but from, you know, any sexually transmitted
01:36:57.239 --> 01:37:02.500
thing or sharing thing. It was created to get
01:37:02.500 --> 01:37:06.619
rid of the undesirables. That's right. The deplorable.
01:37:07.199 --> 01:37:12.720
The drug addicts, the homeowners, the unnamed.
01:37:12.720 --> 01:37:15.119
I'm not going to name it. And then they realized
01:37:15.119 --> 01:37:18.840
that also hetero people were just as promiscuous
01:37:18.840 --> 01:37:21.300
and fucking without condoms as gay people and
01:37:21.300 --> 01:37:24.220
drug addicts and all that. You know the comedian
01:37:24.220 --> 01:37:26.979
Jimmy Carr? He's an English guy. Yeah. British
01:37:26.979 --> 01:37:31.039
comedian. There's a clip going around where that's
01:37:31.039 --> 01:37:32.479
some kind of forum. There's a bunch of comedians
01:37:32.479 --> 01:37:34.180
sitting around. One guy asked him, he's like,
01:37:34.279 --> 01:37:36.880
what's the most tasteless joke you've ever written?
01:37:37.220 --> 01:37:41.720
He's like, I hope I get this right. If only there
01:37:41.720 --> 01:37:45.479
were more mosquito nets in Africa, there would
01:37:45.479 --> 01:37:51.880
be way less mosquitoes dying of AIDS. That's
01:37:51.880 --> 01:37:55.579
fucked up. They're biting all the people with
01:37:55.579 --> 01:37:57.800
AIDS and sharing it with each other and all that
01:37:57.800 --> 01:38:04.460
jazz. Isn't it crazy how this storm is named
01:38:04.460 --> 01:38:08.680
Milton and then the writer, the English writer,
01:38:09.060 --> 01:38:13.899
his name is also Milton. He wrote Paradise Lost.
01:38:14.359 --> 01:38:20.649
That's wild. See how things work out. Hurricane
01:38:20.649 --> 01:38:24.189
Sandy was also my mother's name, too. Do you
01:38:24.189 --> 01:38:26.989
have a conspiracy with that, Bobby? Devastated
01:38:26.989 --> 01:38:36.149
New Jersey. She's from Jersey. I don't know.
01:38:36.329 --> 01:38:39.369
They go in alphabetical order for all these storms.
01:38:39.670 --> 01:38:43.229
They pick lists years in advance every year.
01:38:43.710 --> 01:38:47.229
It was a crazy coincidence. I found out that
01:38:47.229 --> 01:38:51.470
my grandfather, he got A letter for Ronald Reagan.
01:38:52.550 --> 01:38:56.449
A sign from the White House. My aunt is sending
01:38:56.449 --> 01:38:59.810
it to me right now. Sweet. It's in the mail,
01:38:59.949 --> 01:39:04.329
yeah. I was just going to say. He was in World
01:39:04.329 --> 01:39:08.149
War II and he was in the Korean War. Oh, cool.
01:39:09.149 --> 01:39:12.329
Recognizes his service. That's awesome. Both
01:39:12.329 --> 01:39:15.909
my grandfathers were. Was this the one that was
01:39:15.909 --> 01:39:19.630
a Freemason, Bobby? No, my other grandfather
01:39:19.630 --> 01:39:23.470
was a Mason. My Greek grandfather, he was Masonic.
01:39:23.510 --> 01:39:27.090
Yeah, my mom's father, my grandpa, on my mom's
01:39:27.090 --> 01:39:29.750
side, he landed in Sicily, and his whole unit
01:39:29.750 --> 01:39:32.329
got wiped out, except for him. He was the only
01:39:32.329 --> 01:39:36.369
survivor. Wow. Wow, dude, could you imagine?
01:39:38.289 --> 01:39:40.630
Bobby and I just had a friend, I'm not going
01:39:40.630 --> 01:39:44.810
to mention his name, but he lost his life to
01:39:44.810 --> 01:39:49.170
suicide, and he was... He was, you know, tours
01:39:49.170 --> 01:39:51.090
in Iraq and Afghanistan and stuff like that.
01:39:51.390 --> 01:39:55.390
And this is what's crazy about this, Chad, is
01:39:55.390 --> 01:39:59.229
that he was the last person from his platoon
01:39:59.229 --> 01:40:04.170
or whatever the hell it is to be alive that either
01:40:04.170 --> 01:40:06.930
died over there or came back and then committed
01:40:06.930 --> 01:40:09.970
suicide. Jesus Christ, wow. It just shows, Chad,
01:40:10.050 --> 01:40:13.710
like how crazy is this that we have no... course
01:40:13.710 --> 01:40:15.869
of action for these people who go over there
01:40:15.869 --> 01:40:18.630
and fight for us and get this PTSD and then they
01:40:18.630 --> 01:40:21.970
come back here and there's nothing for them to
01:40:21.970 --> 01:40:24.409
go through therapy and stuff for the stuff that
01:40:24.409 --> 01:40:26.890
they've seen and they're losing their lives like
01:40:26.890 --> 01:40:29.189
that to suicide because they've seen things and
01:40:29.189 --> 01:40:32.590
did things that, you know. Another reason Trump
01:40:32.590 --> 01:40:34.649
needs a win and Elon needs to come in and be
01:40:34.649 --> 01:40:37.170
the government accountability office. He can
01:40:37.170 --> 01:40:40.069
help clean up the fucking VA too. Yeah, man.
01:40:40.130 --> 01:40:42.399
It's horrible. And then you can start directing
01:40:42.399 --> 01:40:45.539
funds to our veterans instead of the frigging
01:40:45.539 --> 01:40:48.800
illegals. Yeah. It's insane. It is. All this
01:40:48.800 --> 01:40:50.859
money going to these other countries, and they
01:40:50.859 --> 01:40:52.859
can't even help these countries that are flooded
01:40:52.859 --> 01:40:55.720
out. And then you got Kamala. I don't know when
01:40:55.720 --> 01:40:57.619
she made this comment, but she says, I know the
01:40:57.619 --> 01:41:01.199
law. And immigrants coming into this country
01:41:01.199 --> 01:41:07.119
crossing the border is not a crime. Okay. She
01:41:07.119 --> 01:41:08.779
said they didn't break a law. It's like, yeah,
01:41:08.800 --> 01:41:11.140
they did. What are you talking about? You're
01:41:11.140 --> 01:41:14.760
a lawyer. You should know better. You came into
01:41:14.760 --> 01:41:17.760
this country by crossing a border illegally.
01:41:18.460 --> 01:41:22.199
Exactly. It's illegal to cross a border of a
01:41:22.199 --> 01:41:25.659
country without showing a passport and coming
01:41:25.659 --> 01:41:29.579
in. And, you know, we can't go to Mexico just
01:41:29.579 --> 01:41:32.180
and cross the border. That's illegal. You can
01:41:32.180 --> 01:41:34.960
put jail in Mexico. Good luck. Yeah. You need
01:41:34.960 --> 01:41:39.899
to go. I just can't believe that she speaks that
01:41:39.899 --> 01:41:42.060
way. And when she says things like that, Chad,
01:41:42.220 --> 01:41:45.380
it gives people that are thinking of crossing
01:41:45.380 --> 01:41:48.199
the border a pass to do because, oh, the vice
01:41:48.199 --> 01:41:49.939
president is saying it's not illegal. It's not
01:41:49.939 --> 01:41:54.500
illegal. It's not a crime. And then whoever she
01:41:54.500 --> 01:41:56.100
said that to, why didn't they push back on it
01:41:56.100 --> 01:42:00.579
and go, yeah, that is actually a crime. It's
01:42:00.579 --> 01:42:03.739
just the collusion. The collusion between the
01:42:03.739 --> 01:42:07.619
media, between the... The Democrats is just,
01:42:07.699 --> 01:42:11.819
it's insane. It really is. It's that or it shows
01:42:11.819 --> 01:42:14.159
people don't have backbones when they have that
01:42:14.159 --> 01:42:16.539
spotlight on them to call somebody out during
01:42:16.539 --> 01:42:18.979
that thing. Because, you know, to put yourself
01:42:18.979 --> 01:42:21.819
in an uncomfortable situation sometimes could
01:42:21.819 --> 01:42:25.420
be, but. That's the thing that Mike was saying,
01:42:25.500 --> 01:42:27.260
like kind of separate the men from the boys.
01:42:27.319 --> 01:42:30.840
Like you need people with backbones to be standing
01:42:30.840 --> 01:42:33.159
up for us right now because you can't sit back
01:42:33.159 --> 01:42:36.939
idly by anymore. People are running amok. Yeah,
01:42:36.979 --> 01:42:40.859
he seemed like a really on top of it type of
01:42:40.859 --> 01:42:43.600
man. I would like an office too, absolutely.
01:42:43.960 --> 01:42:47.060
Yeah, we need more like him. Yeah. Jasmine Rivera,
01:42:47.359 --> 01:42:50.119
go out there and vote, folks. I mean, if you
01:42:50.119 --> 01:42:52.220
just if you just would get some Democrats that
01:42:52.220 --> 01:42:54.739
would be more centrist and fucking actually stand
01:42:54.739 --> 01:42:57.739
up against all the other bullshit. Yeah. You
01:42:57.739 --> 01:43:02.220
might have a decent party there, but it seems
01:43:02.220 --> 01:43:05.000
like it's lost now. It does, man. Or even if
01:43:05.000 --> 01:43:08.800
stand for what the party stood for 15, 20 years
01:43:08.800 --> 01:43:12.539
ago. I know. Yeah. Democrats are now the party
01:43:12.539 --> 01:43:16.279
of war. Yeah. Party of censorship. Party of open
01:43:16.279 --> 01:43:19.840
borders. I mean. It's crazy. Party of normalizing
01:43:19.840 --> 01:43:22.640
pedophilia. Like they keep bringing it up because
01:43:22.640 --> 01:43:26.560
it's true. And how did they get so fucked up?
01:43:26.579 --> 01:43:28.880
And like there's a lot of Democrats that had
01:43:28.880 --> 01:43:30.699
to just let it happen. And then the people that
01:43:30.699 --> 01:43:33.279
still vote for him, it's like your party is â
01:43:33.279 --> 01:43:36.619
your party is gone. It's gone. It's been radicalized.
01:43:36.939 --> 01:43:39.800
Gone. How do you go through the mental gymnastics
01:43:39.800 --> 01:43:42.810
to keep defending that shit? Well, Mike said
01:43:42.810 --> 01:43:44.850
it perfectly. They hide behind the fact that
01:43:44.850 --> 01:43:48.529
LGBTQ and try to make it so it's like they're
01:43:48.529 --> 01:43:50.470
not including these people when they're pushing.
01:43:50.470 --> 01:43:51.649
Well, they do it on purpose. Yeah, they make
01:43:51.649 --> 01:43:53.529
this third rail topic. You're like, you can't
01:43:53.529 --> 01:43:55.130
touch that. You can't say anything against those
01:43:55.130 --> 01:43:57.010
people. You can't say anything bad about them.
01:43:57.029 --> 01:43:59.029
If they put that label, they put that umbrella
01:43:59.029 --> 01:44:02.449
over something like pornography in schools. Well,
01:44:02.689 --> 01:44:04.510
it's protecting LG. Oh, then all of a sudden
01:44:04.510 --> 01:44:06.850
you're a bigot. It's like, no, not a bigot. Just
01:44:06.850 --> 01:44:09.109
protecting kids from pornography in their schools.
01:44:09.270 --> 01:44:11.960
Yeah. Like, that's what's crazy. There's been
01:44:11.960 --> 01:44:14.560
videos of, like, I think it was a preacher, a
01:44:14.560 --> 01:44:17.420
reverend. He took the books that were in the
01:44:17.420 --> 01:44:19.180
library to the school board meeting, started
01:44:19.180 --> 01:44:21.319
reading out of them. They're like, you can't
01:44:21.319 --> 01:44:23.260
say that in here. And he's like, I'm reading
01:44:23.260 --> 01:44:25.979
the books that are in the school library to you,
01:44:26.039 --> 01:44:30.539
and you can't listen to it? Exactly. It's crazy,
01:44:30.859 --> 01:44:34.199
man. Fucking nuts. You can't fight fucking crazy
01:44:34.199 --> 01:44:39.430
and stupid with real. And facts because you just
01:44:39.430 --> 01:44:41.489
never win, man. Right. And then they throw up
01:44:41.489 --> 01:44:43.710
this bullshit like, oh, they're banning books.
01:44:43.770 --> 01:44:46.829
Oh, this is so against the First Amendment. They're
01:44:46.829 --> 01:44:48.470
banning books. It's like, no, they're banning
01:44:48.470 --> 01:44:50.590
books that have pornography in them in schools.
01:44:51.590 --> 01:44:54.090
Period. Period. End of story. And that's where
01:44:54.090 --> 01:44:56.810
shit should end. They shouldn't allow them to
01:44:56.810 --> 01:45:00.210
come back with these nonsensical things and shit
01:45:00.210 --> 01:45:02.760
that doesn't make sense. Like it's. I don't know.
01:45:03.260 --> 01:45:05.460
We've got to figure out how to combat this. The
01:45:05.460 --> 01:45:07.859
way is to keep voting these people out and voting
01:45:07.859 --> 01:45:10.260
these people in, but we've got to take back the
01:45:10.260 --> 01:45:12.640
media. We've got to shed more light on this.
01:45:12.699 --> 01:45:14.140
We've got to keep talking about it. We've got
01:45:14.140 --> 01:45:15.500
to keep questioning. You don't have to take back
01:45:15.500 --> 01:45:19.960
the media. The media is going away. Sure. Not
01:45:19.960 --> 01:45:25.180
quick enough. That's the best thing for it. Best
01:45:25.180 --> 01:45:28.979
thing. Well, this November will be a telling
01:45:28.979 --> 01:45:31.439
time for us and we'll actually see like if we're
01:45:31.439 --> 01:45:34.880
on the path to doing the right thing or if we're
01:45:34.880 --> 01:45:36.960
still just going to be conforming and fucking
01:45:36.960 --> 01:45:40.680
in this never ending cycle. So gracious audience,
01:45:40.920 --> 01:45:44.199
we thank you and love you. Please get your asses
01:45:44.199 --> 01:45:46.640
out there in November and vote for the people
01:45:46.640 --> 01:45:49.800
that have our back. Bobby, anything that you
01:45:49.800 --> 01:45:53.069
want to say to the audience before we. God bless
01:45:53.069 --> 01:45:55.369
you. God bless everybody. Thank you for joining.
01:45:55.569 --> 01:45:57.170
Oh, John, you know what I realized before we
01:45:57.170 --> 01:46:01.229
go? November 5th is a Tuesday. Yes. We either
01:46:01.229 --> 01:46:04.930
have to have a great host or just you and I fucking
01:46:04.930 --> 01:46:08.369
riffing on November 5th. I think that's where
01:46:08.369 --> 01:46:10.229
we'll have to go for that, dude. Or a great guest,
01:46:10.289 --> 01:46:13.590
that is. Sorry. Right, right. But I think we
01:46:13.590 --> 01:46:17.159
might need to really be, because, you know. We
01:46:17.159 --> 01:46:18.880
might just need to have that show to ourselves
01:46:18.880 --> 01:46:21.560
and dive into it and say all the things going
01:46:21.560 --> 01:46:23.699
on because you never know where a guest is going
01:46:23.699 --> 01:46:26.119
to want to go. But that stuff we'll discuss.
01:46:26.739 --> 01:46:31.800
I got one more thing. I got one more shit. Hold
01:46:31.800 --> 01:46:34.380
on one second. Look at this shit. It just fucked
01:46:34.380 --> 01:46:38.220
up. They're announcing $2 million for the Carolinas
01:46:38.220 --> 01:46:42.640
the same day they announced $157 million to rebuild
01:46:42.640 --> 01:46:46.760
Lebanon. Wow. You can't make the shit up. It's
01:46:46.760 --> 01:46:50.500
unbelievable. That probably equates to that $700
01:46:50.500 --> 01:46:54.220
they gave the Hawaiians back in the day. Yeah.
01:46:54.819 --> 01:47:01.220
It's really sick. Sad. Alright, folks. Get out
01:47:01.220 --> 01:47:07.800
there. Do your duty. Go ahead, bud. Look at that.
01:47:08.819 --> 01:47:14.500
Look at this. This is us. Hold on. I'm not sharing.
01:47:15.239 --> 01:47:19.220
I'm about to. Sharing is caring. 1970s. No fat.
01:47:19.380 --> 01:47:24.220
No fucking pieces of shit. You know? That's all
01:47:24.220 --> 01:47:26.899
we got now is fat. No tattoo. No plastic. Yeah.
01:47:27.180 --> 01:47:30.979
Look at that. That's amazing. Hello. Hey, ladies.
01:47:31.720 --> 01:47:34.539
Sexy as hell, bro. Absolutely. I'm not caked
01:47:34.539 --> 01:47:36.619
with makeup. Have you seen some of these videos
01:47:36.619 --> 01:47:40.500
where they show these, I mean, I don't, for lack
01:47:40.500 --> 01:47:43.039
of a better word. ugly women that put on this
01:47:43.039 --> 01:47:45.239
makeup and you're like what the fuck just happened
01:47:45.239 --> 01:47:48.739
have you seen any of these videos um i've kind
01:47:48.739 --> 01:47:50.880
of seen it in real life but no i know like shit
01:47:50.880 --> 01:47:52.359
that they could do they could with the airbrush
01:47:52.359 --> 01:47:54.380
makeup and and shit like that where they can
01:47:54.380 --> 01:47:56.500
make you look totally different they used to
01:47:56.500 --> 01:47:59.720
do these a few years ago but makeup now is like
01:47:59.720 --> 01:48:03.460
fucking nuts it's so caked on and like wick yeah
01:48:03.460 --> 01:48:05.800
and they these videos there's these women they're
01:48:05.800 --> 01:48:07.920
like some of them have no teeth and they just
01:48:07.920 --> 01:48:11.399
look just not great I don't want to be mean.
01:48:11.520 --> 01:48:13.840
Right. Then they do this makeup and you're like,
01:48:13.960 --> 01:48:17.159
holy shit. She kind of looks hot, but we know
01:48:17.159 --> 01:48:20.000
what she looked like before that. It's like the,
01:48:20.060 --> 01:48:23.199
what was that? What was that show? The Swan.
01:48:24.920 --> 01:48:26.939
The Swan, they would take, they would take like
01:48:26.939 --> 01:48:29.199
ugly women and they do all kinds of plastic surgeries
01:48:29.199 --> 01:48:31.039
to them and stuff. Right. And make them look
01:48:31.039 --> 01:48:34.420
good. And then I think, I think one of the contestants,
01:48:34.520 --> 01:48:36.560
it might've been in Korea, I believe. I'm trying
01:48:36.560 --> 01:48:38.220
to remember the story, but one of the contestants
01:48:38.220 --> 01:48:41.460
ended up suing the woman because they had a kid
01:48:41.460 --> 01:48:44.960
and the kid was ugly. And then he found out that
01:48:44.960 --> 01:48:49.100
she was on this show and got all these surgeries
01:48:49.100 --> 01:48:50.840
and shit to make herself look good. And she was
01:48:50.840 --> 01:48:53.920
like, not very good looking to start with. I
01:48:53.920 --> 01:48:55.840
was going to say, did she not realize that the
01:48:55.840 --> 01:48:58.060
surgery doesn't get passed down through the DNA?
01:48:58.199 --> 01:49:03.979
Exactly. No, it's not. There's that incompetence
01:49:03.979 --> 01:49:07.550
that we're talking about. all right gracious
