00:00:00.000 this is what you're fighting for I mean every day you're out there what they're

00:00:10.920 doing is blowing people off if you continue to look the other way and shut

00:00:16.080 up then the oppressors the authoritarians get total control and total

00:00:20.520 power because this is just like in Arizona this is just like in Georgia it's

00:00:25.140 another element that backs them into a quarter and shows their lies and

00:00:29.040 misrepresentations is why this audience is gonna have to get engaged as we've

00:00:32.640 told you this is the fight all this nonsense all this spin they can't handle

00:01:06.480 weeks ago that I was gonna do this hour of this program we were gonna do this

00:01:11.220 whole breakdown of the electoral college and the state of the race and the

00:01:14.340 presidential race and then this weekend when I saw with Kamala Harris and the

00:01:19.200 Democrats and the establishment media have been doing to the gold star families of the

00:01:23.700 13 who were killed in the Abbey Gate bombing three years ago in the aftermath

00:01:28.680 of President Trump's decision to attend the three-year anniversary at Arlington

00:01:35.520 National Cemetery we scrapped the entire plan and we were we replanned the entire

00:01:40.980 program here today and what we've decided to do is bring in a number of the gold star

00:01:46.560 families who Kamala Harris insulted via social media and has never called never

00:01:53.880 communicated with in and so what we have we have several of the gold star families

00:01:59.400 who was spoken out President Trump of course put out videos from several of

00:02:02.340 these people I the on his social media over the weekend and so we wanted to get

00:02:07.500 them on here the program to hear their stories and tell their voice and hear from

00:02:12.900 them in their own voices so we have Christy Shamblin she is the mother-in-law of

00:02:45.380 through with each of them one by one to tell their stories and then the second

00:02:49.940 segment by the way we'll be joined by two more gold star parents so I guess let's

00:02:55.160 start with Christy Christy I watched your video where you were talking about how

00:03:02.240 Kamala here in response to Kamala Harris's social media post can you tell us what

00:03:07.100 your reaction was when you read that post of her criticizing President Trump for

00:03:11.340 going with you guys to Arlington National Cemetery thank you for having us and

00:03:17.360 for having me I was shocked when I saw her post you know we did invite them to

00:03:25.220 Arlington that day and we never heard any response just as we've never heard any

00:03:30.140 response from any of our attempts at communication with President Biden and

00:03:36.200 Vice President Harris and the White House and it's having her post that on social 1.00

00:03:42.140 media has made us a target for a lot of hate right now and it's shocking

00:03:48.700 absolutely unbelievable Steve let's go to you next sir what was your reaction when

00:03:56.140 you saw that Kamala Harris was out there criticizing President Trump for going to 0.96

00:04:01.440 the ceremony yeah thank you for having us Matt we appreciate it and just like

00:04:09.500 Christy I was shocked but not to to not to a great extent you know the one that's

00:04:15.900 claiming that you know we're playing politics or that he's playing politics it's

00:04:21.000 actually her that's playing politics for her to to call this out and to you know on 1.00

00:04:26.700 on a solemn day when we need to remembrance finally their last their last you know

00:04:32.260 anniversary in this administration and they can't even do the right thing and to be

00:04:37.080 honest with you we've we've extensively asked everyone on the Trump Trump campaign

00:04:41.780 and and Christy was there this altercation was not seen by anyone and I'm I'm

00:04:47.480 questioning whether it even happened unbelievable so in Jim to bring you in

00:04:54.040 here as well tell us what your reaction was same question what was your reaction when you

00:04:58.820 saw Kamala Harris attacking President Trump over this I was disappointed hurt a little

00:05:05.920 bit we're kind of get used to having that stab ripped off and feeling a little bit of

00:05:11.740 pain but this one was it became personal and and it was such a beautiful moment

00:05:17.980 finally to to recognize the kids something something that hasn't happened in a long

00:05:24.100 time and we've kept our kids out of the politics we've never discussed it but it's

00:05:28.100 just like you know out of respect for our kids we've never included them in

00:05:32.180 politics and they made it political and for me that became personal so I want to

00:05:39.440 ask you guys have have any of you heard from Kamala Harris ever like have and she's

00:05:44.660 the sitting vice president of the United States when your kids were killed in this

00:05:47.960 terrorist attack I she she was the sitting vice president she was supposedly the last 1.00

00:05:53.440 person in the room at least so she says when Biden made the decisions to do what he

00:05:58.400 did in Afghanistan has she ever called any of you never no never no never so so let me

00:06:07.540 ask you this so again we'll start with Christy what do you think that shows about

00:06:12.800 her character I think that it shows she believes our service members are

00:06:18.120 disposable and that's exactly the feeling that we've got from the White House is

00:06:23.220 that our heroes our children my daughter-in-law was disposable and

00:06:28.660 replaceable and not important and I can't live with that it's not acceptable our

00:06:33.660 service members are the most important people in our society and Steve what

00:06:40.620 would say you what do you think it says about her character that you've never

00:06:43.980 heard from her I think it's just typical from the whole administration you know

00:06:49.620 they want to sweep this under the rug never talk about it again never honest for

00:06:54.480 them to honor and recognize the sacrifice of our children would force them to

00:07:00.660 recognize that there was a mistake and so they won't bring it up you know they'll

00:07:04.980 keep it under the rug and and we're I'm pretty much used to it but I'm gonna I'm

00:07:09.960 gonna fight it you know I'm gonna call it out every step of the way in in same

00:07:15.180 thing to you Jim what what what's it what do you think it says about our

00:07:18.360 character complete lack thereof yeah to just abandon the 13 to never reach out to to no

00:07:33.360 condolences no I'm sorry no explanation just absolutely ignore us and and basically shut us

00:07:40.200 up she's lacking character she has no respect mm-hmm I want you guys to tell stories about

00:07:47.760 about your lost loved ones here again let's start with Chrissy can you tell us

00:07:53.940 about Nicole what was she like as a person what would what would she you know what 0.97

00:07:58.980 would she be like today talk to us a little bit about her oh Nicole Leanne G was a

00:08:06.720 superstar she we always knew she would impact her life and everybody around her

00:08:14.500 dramatically we just didn't know that it would be in such a manner she was well known for being

00:08:21.820 an encourager and a believer and having a positive mental attitude she posted just days

00:08:27.220 before her death her a picture of her holding one of the Afghan babies with the post I love my job and it

00:08:34.180 just is exactly who she was and how she lived even in the middle of what was horrific circumstances

00:08:41.500 surrounded by the Taliban she found the moments to be able to love her job and take pride in what she

00:08:48.380 was doing for her country most of all she loved her family she loved her country and she loved the Marine

00:08:55.300 Corps and it's so in Steve can you tell us about tell us about Kareem what was he like as a person yeah

00:09:05.080 thank you Kareem Nkui you know he he was incredible he was a world champion jiu-jitsu fighter he was into

00:09:12.500 hand-to-hand combat sports was in the JROTC all four years in high school always wanted to be a Marine

00:09:20.460 combat Marine we extensively shot you know rifles and guns this is what he wanted to do and you know

00:09:31.160 the day before he passed away on the 25th of August he sent a video of him interacting with

00:09:36.740 a child you know handing handing the little girl candy and and and having them pinky swear together

00:09:42.760 and saying that they're friends so you know another thing is he was born again gave his life to Jesus

00:09:49.180 Christ and I think he was there to add some comfort to the children and a testament to his character and

00:09:55.600 who he was is he was right on the wall he was right directly across from the bomber and I wouldn't

00:10:02.220 expect him to be anywhere else you know that's where he was and that's who he was and Jim tell us

00:10:08.400 about Riley what was he like as a person Riley was a lot like Kareem and I think that's why they became 0.56

00:10:15.140 such good friends both of them tougher than hell but had a compassionate side that you just admired

00:10:23.320 um yeah you know through wrestling and sports and and shooting guns and and being a Marine that's

00:10:30.360 all Riley ever wanted to do is be a Marine and to know where he was and the fact that he was next to

00:10:36.160 Kareem um right there on the wall says to me that said everything I needed to know about Riley he was doing

00:10:43.280 what he loved with with the people that he loved and doing something for for somebody who couldn't do

00:10:48.680 do things for themselves so that was just him in a nutshell uh so so guys one of the things that we

00:10:56.340 saw obviously uh we're in the middle of a presidential election and we saw the democrat national convention

00:11:01.560 uh the democrat party is aggressively pushing this theme that there is this great joy in the country

00:11:08.740 that's the word they use joy over and over and over again dozens and dozens of times uh for Kamala

00:11:14.200 Harris uh do you guys feel joy uh uh when uh after everything you've been through here uh when you

00:11:22.220 think of Kamala Harris not at all not nobody right oh no so so let me let me let me go let's go through

00:11:32.480 the um uh let's start with again with Christy uh Christy can you tell us about uh when you see uh the

00:11:40.060 the the the the the political class out there the left the uh the uh the the the democrat party

00:11:48.180 the media etc out there pushing this theme of joy for Kamala Harris what goes through your mind when you

00:11:54.960 see that that it's a complete farce um this experience has really shown me that what we don't

00:12:04.800 see in the mainstream you know media and for the majority of Americans is what's happening behind

00:12:11.620 the scenes and we've seen behind you know that curtain so to say and it's scary and um to hear

00:12:20.080 her describe joy like that is just heartbreaking I you know the last three years have been nothing but

00:12:25.900 hell in our lives and Steve what say you sir to that to that theme that you see out there from the

00:12:33.280 left and the media and the democrats yeah the I've seen it's been this way for a while it's not

00:12:40.060 surprising um you know they they misrepresent everything it's sound bites and they live off of

00:12:47.520 one or two lines and and that's it but I think the more important thing that that that we need to get

00:12:53.840 out of what happened and I and I know Christy had brought it up is that you know from this thing we

00:12:59.640 talk about how President Trump was was shot and the the volatile you know rhetoric that was going on

00:13:06.200 prior to that well these a lot of these family members have gotten you know threats physical

00:13:11.920 threats uh you know because we you know Donald Trump was was at Arlington and I think that's something

00:13:20.200 to think about these a lot of the family members are scared because they've gotten physical violent

00:13:27.140 threats and hate mail and hate calls on and off social media and and you know that's the outcome

00:13:34.780 of of the other side this is what the the outcome is you know death threats and and hate mail to gold

00:13:41.120 star families and absolutely disgusting can you tell us about some of those I mean what are some of

00:13:47.820 the threats you guys are seeing uh uh Jim you want to start uh what are some of the threats uh have you

00:13:53.580 received any threats what are some of the threats that some of the families you guys are uh are seeing

00:13:58.320 I've received no threats personally I've received a lot of hate mail and that Riley deserved to die

00:14:05.340 the 13 deserved to die um I lost my son so none of that's going to hurt me it's just disgusting to

00:14:12.500 to see it um people's places of work um have been threatened um talking to some of the family members

00:14:21.140 and and seeing some of the messages that have been sent to them are absolutely disgusting

00:14:25.340 especially to the mothers and there's no place for that and it's it's so undeserving and 1.00

00:14:32.340 you know we want to be a united nation but it's going to be really hard to forgive a lot of this

00:14:39.520 stuff they're they're not trying to unite or unify at all really really disgusting stuff okay so next I

00:14:46.800 want to ask you guys if you did have the opportunity to talk to Kamala Harris and I I would hope that the

00:14:51.840 sitting vice president of the United States would even though it's three years too late still reach

00:14:55.940 out to you guys uh she still hasn't done so but I would hope that she does but if you did get the

00:15:01.720 opportunity to talk to her what would you say to her so again let's start with Christy what would you

00:15:05.960 say to uh Kamala Harris if you got the opportunity to talk to her the same thing we you know have been

00:15:13.520 asking from day one of this uh we've made phone calls we've we've reached out and and asked the

00:15:20.220 question tell us how this was a success we don't see any successes that belong to the administration

00:15:28.160 the few successes that were had are belong to the men and women in uniform and not to the men and

00:15:35.120 women who serve in DC and I would ask how can you call it a success and my second question would be

00:15:41.560 how are you going to help us make sure this doesn't happen again you had another evacuation

00:15:46.280 where people were falling off of airplanes it's not acceptable and if we're going to change that

00:15:52.880 for the future so that we don't have another Saigon and we don't have another Afghanistan 1.00

00:15:57.200 we have to get some of the people in DC to problem solve with us and Steve what would you say

00:16:04.740 uh to uh what would you say to Kamala Harris if you got the opportunity to talk to her

00:16:09.780 well you know I I think there's roughly 43 provinces in Afghanistan and prior to you know

00:16:17.520 going into July of 2021 about 75 to 80 percent of those provinces had been taken over by the Taliban

00:16:25.060 I want to know why didn't they conduct a neo at that time they knew that the country was going to fall 1.00

00:16:31.180 they knew that there was no no possibility of ever having a embassy in Kabul that they were just on

00:16:38.820 borrow time one two where was the over-horizon capabilities where were we supporting the Afghan

00:16:45.140 national defense forces with you know an over-horizon capability you know destroying some targets that

00:16:52.400 they had that would help them to stay you know to motivate them to stay in you know in their command

00:16:59.220 which they didn't because we abandoned them and um you know I guess lastly is why why would you

00:17:05.960 continually you know disrespect our my my sons and and his comrades service and sacrifice by denying him

00:17:14.020 and not even you know acknowledging him or saying his name and Jim what would you say to Kamala Harris

00:17:21.200 if you got the opportunity to talk to her my first question would be where have you been for the last

00:17:26.220 three years she's been vice president for three years and eight months and there is nothing on her

00:17:32.020 record that is that it that showed leadership um she owns it now because she said she was the last one

00:17:39.880 in the room and she supported the decision and she's comfortable with the decision um there's a lot of

00:17:45.700 questions I do have in that but where have you been and what have you done and why have you been absent

00:17:52.140 so next up I kind of want to talk to you guys about like because this this whole experience that you guys

00:18:00.360 are going through uh it not something that regular folks out there uh you know regularly go through

00:18:07.880 right where you're having to uh deal with media and politics and uh you know all this uh you know

00:18:14.040 national attention etc uh it's been a wild ride I'm sure for you guys for the last three years uh since this

00:18:19.920 happened so I want to ask each of you what the process has been like and what the what are some

00:18:24.720 of the the craziest things that you've seen and heard and uh learned uh over the course of the last

00:18:31.200 several years here since this has happened since you guys have been uh unwillingly forced into this

00:18:36.380 uh political world uh by the nature of becoming gold star families uh so uh Christy can again starting

00:18:45.620 with you uh tell us what are some of the craziest things you've seen uh you know since this all

00:18:51.880 happened um I have been amazed by the hearts and uh commitment of our service members meeting some of

00:19:05.340 Nicole's unit members the people that served with them there on the ground in Afghanistan has been

00:19:11.520 amazing they are stellar human beings and should be celebrated by all of America um what has been

00:19:20.580 disappointing is really having um the administration turn their backs on us we we cannot get answers for

00:19:29.220 many of us you know we didn't know details of our loved one's death for a very long time um still don't

00:19:37.440 know details for a lot of us so um that's been disappointing I feel like I said like I've seen

00:19:44.280 behind the curtain and you can't really unsee that unfortunately and Steve similar same question

00:19:51.840 to you sir what's been the most shocking thing to you uh as you've entered this world uh uh you know

00:19:58.540 so unwillingly well two parts the first thing I you know exactly what Christy said this love and

00:20:04.960 support of the American people uh for our kids is sacrifice and service um that was incredible I

00:20:12.480 mean and still to this day we get that not from not from all of them but you know not from all of

00:20:17.660 America obviously but a good majority that's incredible I think the thing that uh stood out to me and

00:20:22.920 has really hurt me most is that the fact that our government my tax dollars are paying the Taliban 0.66

00:20:29.740 80 million dollars a week and that is the thing that that gets me and that's funding all of their

00:20:36.400 terrorist groups and they're tied in with um uh uh um ISIS as well by marriage uh so do your own

00:20:47.340 research but the fact that our government is paying them 80 million dollars a year that's that just blows

00:20:53.520 my mind and in in similar same question to you sir Jim uh what what is the most shocking thing that

00:20:59.820 you've learned as you've entered this world um the the love and support and and the goodness in the

00:21:09.140 the people that do support us and there's a lot of them has been absolutely beautiful um very much

00:21:15.300 appreciated um and it continues and even the support we've gotten after after this debacle this last

00:21:23.360 weekend um it is amazing how many people do love and care for our military remember our kids um people

00:21:30.960 that I've never met but uh they they reach out and it's it's heartwarming and absolutely beautiful to

00:21:37.960 to see that and it is very much appreciated on the other side of that the most disappointing thing

00:21:44.060 is the media and our government and how easily they they will lie cover up and and deceive um that's been

00:21:55.960 extremely disappointing and it continues um the more I learn um the government and the military that I

00:22:05.060 have loved my entire life and trusted um that trust is is uh it's going um we got to get back um we we got to

00:22:13.920 take the country back and get back to honesty um so yeah the dishonesty is probably the most

00:22:19.880 disappointing thing and and the way we've been treated really really incredible so I really want

00:22:27.920 to thank each of you guys for joining us here uh on war room and uh I'm really sorry that uh you guys

00:22:34.520 are going through this and um we we we're gonna keep tracking these stories uh uh you know both here

00:22:41.660 on war room as well as on breitbart where where I work and uh I I know that uh it's terrible that

00:22:49.040 you're going through this uh but also uh uh uh uh yeah uh also I just think that um it's uh it's it's

00:23:00.360 it's important that we remember the uh the service that your children uh gave to this country uh and I

00:23:08.120 think it's terrible that uh Kamala Harris uh did what uh uh uh you know has has not ever reached

00:23:14.000 out to any of you guys I know that Joe Biden at least showed up to the dignified transfer even

00:23:18.080 though he was looking at his watch the whole time uh but uh really incredible stuff so I really want

00:23:22.360 to thank each of you guys for joining us here uh we're going to take a quick break here on uh uh on

00:31:29.140 actual gold star families here to talk to so we talked to three of them uh in our first segment we've

00:31:33.240 got two more here uh in the second segment uh we are joined by coral do little who's the mother

00:31:38.040 uh of uh corporal humberto sanchez uh and uh kelly barnett who is the mother of staff sergeant darren

00:31:44.000 hoover uh uh both of us joined uh both of them join us now here on war room battleground uh so

00:31:50.380 again uh same thing uh that we did in the first segment i kind of want to go just go back and

00:31:56.200 forth between both of you guys and uh get you both uh telling stories about uh uh your lost sons uh but

00:32:02.660 also uh your thoughts on what's happening right now so let's just start with i guess with coral uh can

00:32:07.980 you tell us a little bit about humberto as a person what was he like uh uh uh you know what was uh tell

00:32:14.440 us about humberto since he was a little kid he was one of those kids that everybody wants to be around

00:32:22.840 uh he grew up and then uh he really struggled when he was a little kid his dad was an abuser so

00:32:31.200 he turns into a defender and he turns into a person that really advocates and how kids that they were

00:32:40.760 feeling bullied or they were feeling left behind i have several stories of uh that kind and and

00:32:49.620 they were just a happy kid even when i know he was struggling because his dad left i know that he was a

00:32:57.520 happy kid and just trying to help and protect it was a big protector

00:33:02.240 and kelly tell us about darren what was he like as a person

00:33:07.280 hi thanks for having me on here and hi coral love to see your face um my son was born with fire and

00:33:16.320 grit in his veins um he was always more mature than everyone his age including me even though i wasn't

00:33:23.280 his age um but he was you know a lot like humberto all of these kids are the same they came out they

00:33:30.420 were just different and they wanted to make sure that everybody was safe and everybody was protected

00:33:34.760 and everybody you know wasn't harmed and and that's what he did from from the very beginning even when

00:33:40.360 he was little we call him our protector that's actually you know it actually states that on his

00:33:45.240 headstone our protector um it's just it just you know floors me sometimes that all these kids

00:33:51.600 such good kids i mean they're not kids grown men and women but such good people um i'm so proud of

00:33:58.320 him and i'm so proud to be his mom and i'm so proud to know um the parents of of these other fallen heroes

00:34:04.500 and so so let me ask you both this uh again we'll start with coral uh when take us back to that day

00:34:12.680 uh when you found out that uh uh that you know this bombing had happened and that your son was killed

00:34:18.520 what was it like what went through your mind how how did that day play out for you

00:34:22.540 so we wake up with the news the uh well since he got sent to the jordan we i was actually on top of

00:34:31.460 the news all the time um so that day i wake up i was doing my coffee like every morning and then i

00:34:37.680 start listening the news and watching like the bombing happen and and it was just crazy how your mom

00:34:44.480 heart just started beating like like my kid is there like just non-stopping yeah i check my phone

00:34:50.900 every five minutes just to make sure that i he wasn't lying or just wanting to see a bubble a message

00:34:58.300 saying mama i'm alive and that never happened it was 2 30 p.m when i definitely knew that it was my

00:35:06.380 kid one of the 13 um but i actually had the knock on the door all the way to 2 30 a.m

00:35:13.060 and i have a phone call first i didn't want to answer that phone call because i knew what it was

00:35:20.600 terrible uh kelly same question to you uh tell us about how you found out

00:35:27.960 um well i was working that morning i work at home so i was working and um you know i saw it come up

00:35:34.320 on the news and then the count kept going up and you know i kept thinking okay there's 6 000

00:35:39.940 service members you know it couldn't be mine it's not mine um you know all day we were we were

00:35:45.800 texting back and forth texting him you know talking with his girlfriend talking with his sisters have

00:35:51.200 you heard from him have you heard from him um nothing um we kept thinking you know maybe no news is good

00:35:58.340 news but that wasn't the case um it was about 10 30 at night and i was walking down to the laundry

00:36:06.340 room and i heard that horrible door um doorbell ringing and um you know i just knew i just my

00:36:13.660 heart just fell to the floor and you know i i went to the door and it's the glass door and you can see

00:36:18.660 three marines standing there full dress and you know all i could do is just collapse and you know

00:36:24.580 my son-in-law caught me and um i it's a horrible day i i i i hate that all of us had to go through

00:36:33.620 that and i i i hope that nobody else has to ever go through that it's just terrible stuff okay so now

00:36:40.780 later when we saw the dignified transfer play out at dover uh air force base uh joe biden was there

00:36:48.100 and he he kept checking his watch the entire time right he kept looking down at his watch i mean

00:36:53.480 as if he had somewhere else to be uh but somebody who wasn't there was the sitting vice president of

00:36:59.420 the united states kamala harris uh so uh were you guys at the the dignified transfer at dover or uh

00:37:06.720 can you talk to us about uh your thoughts on uh both biden and harris uh biden checking his watch

00:37:12.760 and harris just not even showing up um so i was yeah i was the first person like the family as he was

00:37:22.920 entering the room it was a huge room um they said every family together like in their own little

00:37:29.740 space he get close to me and he called me miss lopez so obviously mrs lopez was in and the next couch

00:37:40.360 besides me and she screamed she is miss sanchez and after they actually let him know that he was wrong

00:37:49.980 he went a few minutes later to meet alicia lopez and he called her miss sanchez so alicia just

00:37:59.340 got really really upset um i know and i can tell you this i was there physically but my mind and my

00:38:09.220 heart were not there um it was just i would say that it was the worst moment of life because even

00:38:17.340 when we have the knock on the door we we did not see a cat we did not see it real we were hoping still

00:38:24.380 that he was maybe somewhere and i this is something that i really like i struggle with it all the people

00:38:33.700 that was there giving their condolences to us they were there responsible for the murder of our kids

00:38:39.700 it was not only biden it was um mckinsey it was blinken it was all the higher ups in the marines the

00:38:49.420 navy the army like they have somehow a play in duty hands on the withdrawal of afghanistan they just

00:38:58.060 went shake our hands and wash their hands according to them for us now that we that we know more than

00:39:04.720 we there are research we know that every single one of them they just went to pay their respects

00:39:10.780 according to them but they they were responsible at one point of how it happened and coming from

00:39:18.500 our heart we never see him we never see her there i know someone said they she was there she wasn't

00:39:24.760 there uh and that this the disrespect from biden just checking his watch every single casket passed

00:39:33.640 by and he was checking his watch so that was just a total disrespect to our family and not just to us

00:39:40.400 but our fallen soldiers that they were coming back to united states and kelly same question to you i mean

00:39:49.280 i don't know if you were there and what your thoughts are on again the biden watch checking thing

00:39:54.680 and kamala just not even showing up yeah kamala wasn't there um yeah we were out on the tarmac um

00:40:01.860 i watched him check his watch probably three times and you know i had my daughter and my son-in-law's

00:40:08.060 there but both my daughters my son-in-law's um that we were getting more angry more angry and i finally

00:40:13.320 had to just say to them stop watching it you know we're here for your brother stop watching him

00:40:17.740 but it was very disrespectful um you know my daughter had you know an outburst there at the

00:40:23.840 end after you know she made sure that the you know our our our kids had already left in the vans

00:40:31.300 she had an outburst at him and it was just out of frustration and hurt and disrespected being

00:40:38.100 disrespected that she that she did that i mean it's a good thing that he that we had that you know

00:40:44.520 that part of the the ceremony after um i'm sorry that the part where he came in and met with everyone

00:40:50.440 my family um had told everyone that we did not want to meet with him so they put us in a back room

00:40:56.340 unfortunately that room had glass a glass door and glass wall so we did see him he tried to get in to

00:41:02.700 speak with us um you know one of his probably alzheimer or whatever he has dementia moments

00:41:09.260 um at that time but he did try to get in to see us and um thank goodness that he did not um it was not

00:41:16.660 a pretty thing and it was not um i did not feel respect from the the administration whatsoever

00:41:23.500 the only person that we did allow in was the commandant commandant of the marine corps

00:41:29.080 um but yeah it was a even from that that very start it was total disrespect

00:41:35.080 uh so next up i want to ask you guys about fast forward a few years here uh obviously to last

00:41:41.940 week uh president trump went to arlington national cemetery at the uh three-year anniversary uh ceremony

00:41:48.900 uh and uh and then the media and the democrats and the left and now the latest is is kamala harris

00:41:56.000 herself are out there attacking president trump for having taken pictures and videos which apparently

00:42:01.360 you guys had asked uh and the fan the other families had asked him to do uh and had all been

00:42:07.360 cleared ahead of time uh but you see these attacks uh across the media uh and again from kamala harris

00:42:15.340 uh against president trump and i know uh coral you made a video that president trump's uh shared and

00:42:21.300 several of the other families have as well so coral get your reaction to uh when you see what kamala

00:42:26.920 harris and the the the democrats and the media uh have been doing attacking president trump here what's

00:42:32.760 your reaction i just think that they should make everything uh they politicize everything um for us

00:42:42.480 parents i and i say it before my son is not very in arlington but i i really feel that president trump

00:42:50.560 paid tribute to all the 13 not just the three that are very in there and for them to to just make

00:42:58.580 everything turn everything around and say he's doing it wrong he's breaking loose his uh rules he is

00:43:06.660 it's just a lie it's just a lie president trump paid his respect to our kids to all of 13 kids and he's the

00:43:15.040 only one that actually take time to meet with the families to talk to the families to honor our kids

00:43:23.160 and say their names president trump know our 13 kids names and kelly same question to you what's

00:43:30.880 your reaction as you see all of this play out uh over the last week uh and especially with the kamala

00:43:35.560 harris uh post on social media yeah i was the the one that reached out to the trump team um that got

00:43:43.100 that rolling for him to come you know so i i feel like you know it was it was me that that you know

00:43:50.660 got this all started and i don't feel bad for it because it was a beautiful day uh president trump

00:43:56.740 has been a source of of um a source of peace and uh a shoulder to lean on and and listening ear for us

00:44:04.220 from you know the beginning and so i it was a beautiful day they knew that we wanted pictures i you

00:44:10.220 know i made it very clear that you know i'd spoke to paulick nows i wanted to make sure that there

00:44:15.520 were pictures for um so she couldn't be there that there were plenty of pictures for you know her to 1.00

00:44:20.200 see you know him um with ryan and all of that and they knew that from the get-go we broke no rules

00:44:27.480 there were no rules broken they just cannot stand that trump did something that they're not able to do

00:44:32.460 um they hate him and so whatever they that whatever he does they're going to throw daggers

00:44:38.340 and then they start throwing daggers at us ghost our families you know sometimes you think you know

00:44:42.860 what is you know what is off limits ghost our families are off limits and and they threw daggers so 0.97

00:44:48.420 their hatred for him you know it goes beyond anything that you can you can imagine and it's just

00:44:55.040 sickening because like i said that was such a beautiful day the ceremony was was beautiful and our

00:45:00.380 hearts were lifted i had peace for a few hours it was it was needed uh so uh i think uh um uh so kelly

00:45:10.060 uh the the to follow up here uh i assume that you've never heard from kamala harris is that a fair

00:45:15.900 assumption oh no no i i i've never heard from her um you know not one bit joe biden either so you

00:45:25.280 know i don't know why this is such a a problem for them for him being there but no she has not

00:45:31.720 reached out i mean even you know woman to woman um trying to you know to at least you know lend the

00:45:36.900 ear to me no she hasn't reached out and so the um the on that note if you did get a chance to talk

00:45:44.560 to her and i assume you would take a call if if the sitting vice president called you uh what would

00:45:49.580 you say to her what would you say to kamala harris what would you uh what would your message to her

00:45:53.820 be what questions would you have for her what questions well i would let her talk first just

00:45:59.340 to see you know what she had to say to me that would probably determine a lot a lot of what i said

00:46:03.940 but what i would say to her you know with her being the last one in that room she's admitted that

00:46:08.040 she was the last one in that room um during the afghanistan planning or the non-planning um in my

00:46:13.960 view i would ask her you know you know all these generals are saying that they advised against it

00:46:19.180 and and they told them that this wasn't a good idea why did she go along with it i you know i want to

00:46:23.940 know why my child um was not important enough for them to do this proper and to do it the way it should

00:46:30.200 have been done that would be my question for her mm-hmm uh so i think we lost coral so we'll try to

00:46:37.400 get her back here uh before the end of the segment but uh but and we got a few minutes left kelly so

00:46:42.000 the um the what is the uh thing so three years ago your son's killed uh in this horrible terrorist

00:46:51.780 attack uh it thrusts you into this world this political world uh uh you know where you're

00:46:58.400 unwillingly made a gold star parent uh it it's a pretty wild world i'm sure i'm sure it's been a wild

00:47:05.600 roller coaster for you learning uh doing media uh talking to politicians etc i'm probably

00:47:11.980 something you never expected to do or wanted to do uh what's been the craziest thing that you've

00:47:16.660 learned uh over the course of the last few years about this uh universe that uh that that that exists

00:47:24.100 out there that regular people maybe uh that are watching this don't know about oh what i've learned

00:47:30.720 is that i have met some beautiful people and i've met some horrible people that try to disguise

00:47:36.660 themselves as beautiful people um this this politics is not a game you want to be in and i

00:47:42.540 don't i hate that we've been thrust into this because you know the the moment at arlington was

00:47:48.540 not political um the things that we do um you know the foundations that we do and you know all of

00:47:54.220 the families have foundation that's not political um it's just been you know horrible to know that

00:48:00.340 people that the administration especially can lie so easily and so often it it buckles me you know i

00:48:09.100 i didn't know that this was possible you know i i had i had you know been a conspiracy theorist a

00:48:15.340 little bit in my life but never never huge but they're it's real they're the lies are just they just

00:48:22.080 come and i just i don't understand how it's possible how the the pull of power is so over

00:48:28.520 overcoming to these people that they just i mean it's like they're like addicted

00:48:32.640 yeah and kelly the last thing i would ask you here is we got about uh 30 seconds left it's just uh what

00:48:39.440 would be your message to other moms out there uh around the country uh as they consider who to vote

00:48:45.120 for here in this uh really critical election uh what after everything you've learned oh my goodness um

00:48:52.720 you know i still have uh

00:48:54.940 i have i have family that's still in the military i'm not going to say who um very close family

00:49:04.400 and so it scares me to death that these two that that biden this is well he's not really running

00:49:11.560 the country but it just scares me that we could have another years of this nightmare um i would not i

00:49:16.920 i don't trust terrible terrible nightmare yeah it's a terrible nightmare i don't trust kelly we're at

00:49:23.980 yeah and kelly we're out of time here so i really want to thank you for joining us i'm really sorry

00:49:30.780 uh for everything that you've gone through and i really want to thank coral dolittle too uh we lost

00:49:35.260 her connection with her a little bit earlier in the interview uh and sorry for everything she's going

00:49:39.180 through as well uh again folks really want to thank everyone for tuning in here to war room
