00:00:00.000 Thank you.

00:02:07.000 You're not taking Matt Gaetz off the board, okay?

00:02:09.000 Because Matt Gaetz is an American patriot and Matt Gaetz is an American hero.

00:02:14.000 We will not continue to allow the Uniparty to run this town without a fight. 1.00

00:02:19.000 I want to thank you, Matt Gaetz, for holding the line.

00:02:23.000 Matt Gaetz is a courageous man.

00:02:26.000 If we had hundreds of Matt Gaetz in D.C., the country turns around.

00:02:30.000 It's that simple.

00:02:31.000 He's so tough, he's so strong, he's smart, and he loves this country.

00:02:35.000 Matt Gaetz.

00:02:37.000 It is the honor of my life to fight alongside each and every one of you.

00:02:42.000 We will save America.

00:02:45.000 It's choose your fighter time.

00:02:46.000 I'm sending the firebrands. 1.00

00:02:48.000 You all on the same page?

00:02:56.000 No.

00:02:57.000 What do you mean you're not on the same page?

00:02:59.000 Not even in the same book.

00:03:01.000 Was there a concession in the room?

00:03:07.000 Welcome back to Firebrand.

00:03:08.000 I'm Congressman Matt Gaetz.

00:03:09.000 That was Congressman Steve Cohen, Democrat from Memphis, Tennessee, leaving a meeting with House Democrats discussing the future of President Biden, his mental capacity, his ability to continue as the Democratic nominee, and they're not even on the same book.

00:03:24.000 That's the response from Congressman Cohen when asked whether Democrats are on the same page regarding President Biden.

00:03:29.000 I can just tell you from inside the halls of Congress where we're Currently broadcasting from room 2021 of the Rayburn House office building here at the Capitol Complex.

00:03:38.000 It is like a funeral mentality.

00:03:41.000 Democrats had this long strategy meeting this morning.

00:03:44.000 It did not appear that they came out of that with any consensus.

00:03:47.000 Last night, Biden was shoring up his base with the Congressional Black Caucus.

00:03:51.000 That's typically where he enjoys his strongest sentiment of support among congressional Democrats.

00:03:56.000 But then there are frontliners.

00:03:58.000 Then there are those in districts that are very purple, that could swing to the right or to the left, and they are not as confident.

00:04:05.000 Now, there are members of the Congressional Black Caucus who are also frontliners, but a majority of the Congressional Black Caucus, they are in districts that are very safe Democrat seats.

00:04:15.000 And so their experience is different than those who feel as though the strength of the presidential ticket is going to affect their own ability to serve in the United States House of Representatives.

00:04:26.000 And then there are members...

00:04:28.000 Who are not frontliners, typically, but now might be.

00:04:32.000 So consider this.

00:04:33.000 You're a Democrat member of Congress.

00:04:34.000 Maybe you have a Cook political rating of like a D8 or D12. That would mean that you typically win your contest by 8, 12 percentage points.

00:04:44.000 That group of members is not used to being in a full-on election battle come November.

00:04:52.000 And now, they're starting to get memos from their pollsters, from their consultants, saying, Joe Biden's running even in our district where he used to be an updraft.

00:05:02.000 Now that could put downward pressure on the ability of Democrats running for the Senate, the House, even further down ballot to be successful in some of those elections.

00:05:12.000 And so that is shaping how Democrats are viewing the work that we're doing on Capitol Hill.

00:05:16.000 It's also shaping how Republicans are thinking about it.

00:05:19.000 Let me lay this out for you.

00:05:20.000 There are two school of thoughts among the Republicans.

00:05:24.000 One is when the opposition is trying to fumble the football, you let them.

00:05:29.000 You don't get in their way.

00:05:30.000 You don't do too much if they're in their own path of self-destruction.

00:05:35.000 And so make as little wake as possible, keep calm waters on our side, and just watch the left engage in the circular firing squad.

00:05:44.000 That's one theory.

00:05:46.000 The other theory is when you start to see the cracks in the opposition, apply pressure.

00:05:52.000 Here would be the strategy under a more forward-thinking paradigm.

00:05:58.000 Make the Democrats take a vote on whether or not there should be a mental competency test for President Biden right now in his official capacity.

00:06:06.000 Make them take a vote on whether or not proceedings pursuant to the 25th Amendment ought to begin.

00:06:11.000 Make them take a vote on whether or not he ought to have the nuclear codes.

00:06:15.000 It's a fair question to ask who's the president right now.

00:06:18.000 Like, if something terrible happened, God forbid, if we were attacked, if there was some catastrophe, some natural event, I mean, they're definitely not going to this guy to make the decision.

00:06:29.000 So who is the president?

00:06:31.000 Is it Dr. Jill?

00:06:33.000 Is it Hunter?

00:06:35.000 Is it the border czar, Kamala Harris?

00:06:38.000 We don't know, and I think Applying some pressure by using the floor of the house to ripen those questions could be as effective a strategy as just sitting back and watching them self-destruct.

00:06:50.000 So we'll see how that goes.

00:06:52.000 We'll continue to follow.

00:06:53.000 But there's a really important discussion we want to have today about what's going on at our school boards, in our classrooms, and really in the education system at large.

00:07:00.000 And so we are welcoming Back to Firebrand.

00:07:03.000 My good friend, Catalina Stubbe.

00:07:05.000 Catalina is the National Director of Hispanic Outreach at Moms for Liberty.

00:07:09.000 She's also a radio host on Americano Media.

00:07:13.000 She's been on Firebrand before.

00:07:15.000 It was really in the heart of this uprising we saw from parents to change the way the education system was approaching active parenting and parents who wanted to be involved in curriculum review.

00:07:28.000 Now that you've been a leader in the Moms for Liberty movement, Catalina, tell us a little bit about The mission of the organization, how it is still very much prescient in what we're doing in the education space.

00:07:40.000 Yeah, that's correct.

00:07:42.000 Thank you, Congressman, for this invitation.

00:07:45.000 Listen, it's simple.

00:07:46.000 Moms for Liberty is fighting for the survival of America. 1.00

00:07:51.000 Education get us into a big trouble and education is going to get us out of this trouble.

00:07:57.000 Why?

00:07:57.000 Because they indoctrinate our children.

00:07:59.000 Our children were indoctrinated at school, they were teach about CRT, they were teach gender ideologies.

00:08:06.000 Most of it, they are Marxist ideologies that shake the foundation of the educational system.

00:08:13.000 The results are clear and only 30 percent of our students have been, has passed the test in math, In reading or in science, only 30%.

00:08:27.000 That means more than 70% of the children in this country are graduating without being prepared for that, without a purpose.

00:08:36.000 Now, if you see, for long ago, moms have been taught that the government know best.

00:08:49.000 As a parent, you want the best for your child.

00:08:52.000 And with our tax dollar, government have the responsibility to empower families with quality education options that nurture our community and strengthen our nation.

00:09:05.000 We, as a parent, we have the responsibility to educate our next generation about the ideals of this nation, about the ideas and values that make our country the best.

00:09:20.000 Now, let's say this Biden administration is using laws and like, for example, Title IX against our parents, against the girls, against the girls in sports. 0.97

00:09:37.000 But gender ideology does not belong in public school and we are glad that courts We will always stand up for the rights of parents and the protection of children.

00:09:54.000 All parents must have their voice heard and the right to raise their own children is part of the very fabric of free America.

00:10:04.000 The federal government has no right to claim our children as their own Or to push parents out of the classroom.

00:10:12.000 This is simple.

00:10:15.000 I want to draw a finer point on this because you've just scored a major victory for the Title IX movement.

00:10:23.000 And this was a report that we're getting from momsforliberty.org.

00:10:27.000 Moms for Liberty succeeds in halting Title IX changes.

00:10:31.000 This out of Topeka, Kansas.

00:10:33.000 In a landmark ruling, a federal court in Kansas issued an opinion halting the Biden administration Department of Education's Title IX changes in a lawsuit brought by the Southeastern Legal Foundation and the Mountain States Legal Foundation on behalf of their clients Moms for Liberty and Young America's Foundations.

00:10:50.000 The organizations joined the states of Kansas, Wyoming, Utah, and Alaska, as well as other students and interest groups in challenging the Department of Education's blatant disregard for the First Amendment and for the rights of K-12 students.

00:11:03.000 So, for those who aren't parents but are watching, What's going on right now in girls' sports and why was protecting girls' sports through the use of this Title IX litigation a strategy that Moms for Liberty pursued?

00:11:19.000 Right.

00:11:20.000 Listen.

00:11:21.000 First and foremost, I want to say no child is born in the brown body. 1.00

00:11:27.000 Boys and girls are perfectly just the way they are and gender ideology has no place in public schools and your parental rights do not stop at the classroom door.

00:11:39.000 That's why Moms for Liberty is fighting for this and that's why Moms for Liberty now is winning with common sense. 1.00

00:11:46.000 It's pure common sense that no men should be allowed at the sports.

00:11:51.000 Why?

00:11:51.000 Because before this, the Title IX wrote in 1972 to protect, initially to protect a woman, It was twisted.

00:12:05.000 Let's say it was by the Biden administration.

00:12:09.000 It was used in the wrong manner when they remade the significance of the sex.

00:12:19.000 Let's say any man That can identify as a woman, any man living in this fake reality of living in this fantasy of that it's just the guising as a woman, can just participate in any sport and take away all the opportunities for a woman and for a child that since the beginning of his life has been training hard every day, 0.80

00:12:49.000 waking up very early To prepare to be a champion, to prepare to excel in sports.

00:12:55.000 So for us, this was not only against the Constitution, but it's against the right of a parent to direct the upbringing of the education of our children.

00:13:08.000 And you've got a lot of agreement on that, Catalina, on the livestream.

00:13:11.000 Jill Davis saying God does not make mistakes and it's child abuse to tell a kid that they are born in the wrong body.

00:13:19.000 You know, you mentioned the Biden administration and the Department of Education being one of the villains in this story, unfortunately.

00:13:27.000 Frankly, if I had my druthers, we would just abolish the federal Department of Education.

00:13:32.000 We would leave this power constitutionally to the states and to our local communities where I think it best resides.

00:13:38.000 But I wanted to also ask you about other villains that you have to fight as part of the Moms for Liberty movement. 0.70

00:13:45.000 How do you view the unions?

00:13:48.000 How do you view the textbook creators?

00:13:50.000 Where should people be looking for some of the negative influences that you're looking to expose and root out?

00:13:58.000 So this is outrageous that with our tax dollars are using indoctrination directly in schools from kindergarten until 12th grade and even more because we are now seeing how they use students in the university in the college and they are now converting to activist And defending even terrorists.

00:14:25.000 So now in our fight also were the inappropriate books.

00:14:32.000 They say we were banning books.

00:14:35.000 We are not the ones banning books, first of all.

00:14:38.000 Second of all, we're not banning books.

00:14:40.000 We're just saying that we should use the tax money dollar In a good way.

00:14:50.000 Just focusing on math, science, and the core courses.

00:14:57.000 Why? 0.93

00:14:57.000 Because no parent want inappropriate content, explicit content, that even describes how to masturbate. 0.93

00:15:06.000 How to even do an intercourse between two same-sex. 0.76

00:15:11.000 This is not sex education. 0.58

00:15:13.000 This is a perversion from the left that is pushing this nationwide to our children.

00:15:21.000 Now our children know better the positions in sex rather than They can name even the 50 states or they can even learn about the Constitution of the United States.

00:15:34.000 They cannot even name the Ten Commandments.

00:15:37.000 So this is about education.

00:15:40.000 We're focusing on education in academics, excelling in academics.

00:15:46.000 You know, and you started out our discussion talking about the goals for those competencies in reading and math and the basics.

00:15:53.000 And, you know, I wonder specifically how this Moms for Liberty movement has grown within the Hispanic community.

00:16:01.000 You're the director of Hispanic Outreach, and so there seem to be a lot of cultural values supporting the family, of supporting a connection to Faith being rooted in the foundation of civilized society that would be very attractive.

00:16:16.000 Talk about what reaction you have received as you've worked toward that outreach.

00:16:23.000 Listen, for me, I came from Colombia and I came from a better life to actually be proficient in my profession and not to seem as my Preference, sexual preference or if I became to a party or not or I belong to a party or not.

00:16:44.000 Just simply, when I came to this country, I saw the American dream and I saw liberty and I don't want to make the same mistakes that I made in our countries, in Colombia.

00:16:58.000 So, I see right now that Hispanics have a lot in common with Americans.

00:17:07.000 But it's something beautiful that Americans teach me.

00:17:10.000 It's how to work in a team, how to have a vision because we can all become one and we can all work together toward one goal and it's basically life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness that we are all men created equal and it's sad how Every pillar of American culture now is under attack.

00:17:35.000 And it's this Colombian girl that is now defending the basics and now even the basics of education in this country that I now choose To be my home and I'm going to defend my home as every single Hispanic or every single American will do with their children.

00:17:58.000 The children is the most precious gift that we've received and we're going to defend that with everything we have.

00:18:04.000 That's why we're so passionate about it and it's so important because they are becoming The future of our country.

00:18:11.000 They are going to become our next legislators, our next doctors.

00:18:15.000 Are you, Congressman, going to trust this young generation that just graduated from high school to be the next voters, choosing the next presidents or the next legislators?

00:18:29.000 They are going to.

00:18:30.000 And so it's our duty to defend the education, transparency in education, and to offer them An education free from indoctrination and actually they deserve better.

00:18:43.000 They deserve better than this because right now our country is every pillar is under attack.

00:18:50.000 Freedom of speech, the Justice Department, the media, the medicine.

00:18:56.000 But for me, the most outrageous is education, using education, using our tax dollars to indoctrinate our children.

00:19:06.000 That must stop and it starts at home.

00:19:11.000 I don't expect a politician to solve all my problems.

00:19:14.000 But parents know best and need to tell the truth to their children.

00:19:21.000 So right now, Yes.

00:19:23.000 No, I think we're all very lucky to have you in that fight.

00:19:26.000 And I think that after people hear that description, they're going to want to join you in that fight.

00:19:30.000 And so talk a little bit about who the people are that are participating in the Moms for Liberty movement.

00:19:36.000 Maybe talk about how people come to the movement and what work you're doing together.

00:19:41.000 And then if you could let folks know, if they see this and are inspired to be in that fight with you to save our education system, How they can join the great efforts that you're endeavoring upon.

00:19:54.000 Listen, this is nice because people always tell me why you became involved in politics.

00:20:01.000 I don't like politics.

00:20:03.000 I'm just a mom trying to raise their children the right way.

00:20:08.000 That's it.

00:20:09.000 And I think this is the common denominator of all Moms for Liberty, that we are just parents trying our best with our children.

00:20:18.000 We want that our children become a productive member of society with a beautiful purpose in life that they're just not in money, but helping others, helping our nation.

00:20:33.000 And we're just simply going straight and focusing laser on education.

00:20:39.000 And I think these moms can change the world and they underestimate the power of a mom because we can do a lot of things and we just need a voice. 1.00

00:20:51.000 That's why Moms for Liberty is unifying, educated and empowered parents to defend their parental rights At all level of government. 0.98

00:20:59.000 Right now, when we want this battle against the Biden administration, against the Title IX, is the moment to join Moms for Liberty.

00:21:11.000 Why?

00:21:12.000 Because it's only for the for the benefit for the Moms for Liberty and I think is the time to fight for truth and the children is now so you must join first of all Moms for Liberty become a member you're gonna be protected from Child 9 and so on and to be it to get informant another thing we are going to be We're going to do a town hall in Milwaukee that

00:21:42.000 is going to be with a lot of guests, including Governor DeSantis, including Governor Huckabee from Arkansas.

00:21:50.000 And I think this is the time that we are just stepping up for our children and start fighting.

00:21:57.000 Also join our March for Kids.

00:22:00.000 Also join the summit at the end of August.

00:22:03.000 It's important and hopefully you can join this summit because it's where we train our parents.

00:22:10.000 It's where we awake our parents and we show the reality that what is happening right now in the educational system.

00:22:19.000 Moms for Liberty, the director of Hispanic National Outreach, Catalina Stuby, thank you so much for joining us on Firebrand.

00:22:25.000 There are so many opportunities to be involved.

00:22:27.000 We want to bring those opportunities to our constituents in Florida and throughout the country.

00:22:31.000 Thanks for everything you're doing, and we'll see you in Milwaukee.

00:22:35.000 Thank you so much, Congressman.

00:22:36.000 Thank you.

00:22:37.000 And we also wanted to let the Firebrand audience know that there was work happening in the House Judiciary Committee today regarding the real abuse of the legal process that we saw on display during the prosecution of President Trump by Alvin Bragg in Manhattan.

00:22:51.000 Now, the core theory of that case is that somehow President Trump violated federal election law by not using donor money for this nondisclosure agreement with Stormy Daniels.

00:23:04.000 And I had the opportunity to question Bradley Smith, who's the former chair of the FEC, who oversaw the enforcement of our election regulations.

00:23:15.000 And the precedent set by the Democrats would lead to a pretty absurd result today.

00:23:23.000 Take a listen to my questioning of the former chair of the FEC. So, Mr. Smith, following up on Mr. Stubbe's question, I want to understand the precedent here.

00:23:33.000 So if a candidate for federal office wanted to use campaign money now to make a hush money payment, could they point to what has occurred in this New York litigation and say, well, I guess I can go use my donor money to make a hush money payment?

00:23:50.000 I suppose they could, at least unless Judge Jackson is correct, and we'll have to wait for that overturning on appeal, but yes.

00:23:56.000 Yeah, but I guess I want to ask the question, if an appellate court does not in some way deal with What has been laid before the country?

00:24:05.000 Could we see people collecting money from donors, lobbyists, and PACs, and then using it to make hush money payments?

00:24:12.000 Yeah, and you could do almost anything else.

00:24:13.000 You could say, for example, I'd really like to go to the Super Bowl this year.

00:24:16.000 I think I'll take a couple of donors along and buy your Super Bowl tickets and your whole trip to the Super Bowl because it's for the purpose of influencing your campaign.

00:24:23.000 So, in the prosecution, to preserve our democracy, We have now greenlit potentially the most expansive abuses of campaign funds ever.

00:24:33.000 Well put.

00:24:36.000 I don't think that it was the intent of the Bragg prosecution to create a massive loophole for people to misuse campaign funds but that's exactly what they seem to have done according to that expert and I continue to take exception with how Judge Mershon in that case was able to preside over a matter where his own family was benefiting off of the notoriety of the case and we had a former judge before the committee I

00:25:06.000 asked him what that would have been like in his court take a listen Judge Wilson, I just want to ask you a precise question.

00:25:17.000 Was there ever a case that you were presiding over where you had a family member economically benefit from the notoriety of the case?

00:25:27.000 No, never.

00:25:29.000 You sure you don't want to take some more time on that?

00:25:31.000 Think about it.

00:25:32.000 I don't need more time.

00:25:33.000 I know that for a fact.

00:25:35.000 Well, I mean, if that had ever arisen, would you have allowed a family member to make money off the notoriety of a case?

00:25:40.000 I would have recused myself from the case.

00:25:43.000 Huh.

00:25:44.000 Well, it's just interesting because we had Attorney General Garland who was, you know, spent a good amount of time on the bench, and I asked him the same question, and, you know, he said that he wouldn't answer it because it was obviously a reference to what had gone on in New York.

00:25:56.000 I mean, I thought it was, I thought he could, Mike could have answered it, but, I mean, when you look at what happened in New York, does it concern you that the judge in that case It seemed to have a family member who was economically leveraging the notoriety of the case.

00:26:09.000 It greatly concerned me, but not so much from the perspective of the ethical violation that would be apparent, because that judge did get an ethical opinion from the Judicial Ethics Committee in New York that exonerated him.

00:26:26.000 From any wrongdoing in listening to the case when his daughter was benefiting.

00:26:31.000 What I was concerned about was the appearance of impropriety.

00:26:35.000 You know, when I sat on the bench, sometimes I would get a report from probation or some other organization, and they would hand it to me in an envelope.

00:26:44.000 And I made certain to open up that envelope and show everybody that it was a report that I was looking at.

00:26:51.000 Because I didn't want there to be the The appearance of infropriety that I'm receiving an envelope from someone in the courtroom.

00:26:57.000 The concept is the same here.

00:27:00.000 You're presiding over a case where your daughter is benefiting and where you've made political contributions in small amounts, but it's irrelevant the amount, but you've made contributions to the political opponents of the defendant before you.

00:27:16.000 These are the very essence of the appearance of impropriety and I feel strongly that Judge Marchand should have recused himself on that basis.

00:27:28.000 Simple as can be, Mr. Chairman.

00:27:29.000 Straightforward answer to a straightforward question.

00:27:31.000 I wish we could have gotten that from the Attorney General.

00:27:34.000 I yield back.

00:27:37.000 We are back live, and we made news yesterday by announcing the establishment of the Congressional El Salvador Caucus.

00:27:43.000 I am going to be leading that caucus as chairman, along with Vicente Gonzalez, a Democrat from the state of Texas who knows that part of the world rather well.

00:27:53.000 This was the announcement of the Congressional El Salvador Caucus.

00:27:56.000 Take a listen.

00:28:00.000 Mr. Speaker, I rise to notify the House of the creation of the Congressional El Salvador Caucus, for which I will serve as chairman and for which I have appointed the gentleman from Texas, Vincente Gonzalez, to serve as the bipartisan co-chairman.

00:28:15.000 Congressman Gonzalez has extensive relationships and insights drawn from his time in El Salvador and throughout Latin America, and undeniably that will assist in leading the caucus.

00:28:26.000 Mr. Speaker, El Salvador's president, Nayib Bukele, has converted El Salvador from the murder capital of the world into a reliable and stable partner for peace and security for the United States of America.

00:28:41.000 The El Salvador caucus will exist to nurture and advance the U.S.-El Salvador relationship, to encourage strong borders, strong culture, and the strong reforms that President Bukele has put into effect.

00:28:56.000 They've defeated the gangs, they've put prosperity on the march in El Salvador, and even the 70,000 people who are incarcerated in that country are not just seeing their lives wasted away.

00:29:08.000 President Bukele has instituted a zero-leisure policy where they are now restoring buildings and murals and actually rebuilding the country that so many of them had a hand in ravaging through gang warfare.

00:29:22.000 The purpose of this caucus will be to vindicate the choices that President Bukele has made that indeed strengthen the U.S.-El Salvador relationship.

00:29:30.000 And El Salvador's resurgence has not existed as a consequence of falling for the siren song of globalism.

00:29:39.000 Instead, President Bukele believes that the way El Salvador can lead within Central America, and indeed throughout the West, is by being the best version of themselves.

00:29:49.000 Not being excessively reliant on some of these globalist institutions.

00:29:53.000 President Bukele has delivered instant justice to the satanic gangs and the endemic political corruption, but in fact, no good deed goes unpunished.

00:30:01.000 Too often our own government and even some members of this Congress mount attack after attack at El Salvador and President Bukele, presumably because the comeback that El Salvador is living is a breathing indictment of other failed ideologies.

00:30:18.000 Through the inspiration from El Salvador's astonishing transformation, the great American rejuvenation can become a reality as well, so that we can experience a triumphant return of safety and prosperity that we once inspired in others.

00:30:33.000 I would invite my colleagues in the House and Senate to contact our office.

00:30:37.000 We would love to have you as a member of the El Salvador Caucus, as we strengthen the U.S. El Salvador relationship, as we work to amplify some of the good decisions that are being made by President Bukele and his government, and as we hope that these good ideas have legs and can travel and can be copied and implemented for a more stable world.

00:30:57.000 Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

00:30:58.000 I yield back.

00:31:02.000 Thanks so much for joining us today on Firebrand.
