Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-GA) is joined by Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) and Rep. Jackie Speier (D -CA) as they respond to Jimmy Kimmel's call for a man to "hit a woman" on his new show Jimmy Kimmel Live. Rep. McCarthy responds to the call and explains why he thinks it's OK to call for violence against women and why he doesn't think it's okay for men to do the same. Rep. Kelly also responds to an attack on Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-GA, who was falsely accused of being a "Klan Mom" by a woman who called for her to be "smacked" by Jimmy Kimmel. And Rep. Schiff calls for Rep. Gaetz to do what Jimmy Kimmel should do, and stand up to the man who's calling for violence on a woman in a conservative woman's right to speak her name and defend her in a time when she's being attacked by a man who wants to see her smacked by a guy who thinks he should be smacked. by someone who's not only attacked her, but also calls for her family to be attacked by another man who thinks she's a "woman" and calls for him to do something about it.

00:04:57.000Matt Gaetz was one of the very few members in the entire Congress who bothered to stand up against permanent Washington on behalf of his constituents.
00:05:05.000Matt Gaetz right now, he's a problem in the Democratic Party.
00:05:07.000He can cause a lot of hiccups in passing applause.
00:05:10.000So we're going to keep running those stories to get hurt again.
00:05:14.000Stand for the flag and kneel in prayer.
00:05:17.000If you want to build America up and not burn her to the ground, then welcome, my fellow patriots.
00:05:49.000This woman, Klan mom, is especially upset with the three Republican senators who said they'll vote yes on Judge Ketanji Brown-Jackson, who's nominated for the Supreme Court.
00:05:59.000She tweeted, Murkowski, Collins, and Romney are pro-pedophile.
00:06:03.000They just voted for KBJ. Wow, where is Will Smith when you really need him, huh?
00:06:24.000If a conservative-leaning comedian or commentator said that about a member of the squad, about someone on the political left, well then certainly there would be mass outrage, cancellations, contracts in violation.
00:06:40.000But because it's a Republican woman, because it's one of the women actually leading our country and providing vision for our party and our movement and inspiring people, I've seen it with my own eyes.
00:06:51.000From the Atlantic coast all the way to the state of California.
00:06:57.000And Jimmy Kimmel also attacks Lauren Boebert all the time.
00:07:00.000So there seem to be some reason why the women who actually step forward and lead in our movement and in our party get particularly nasty and violent comments from Hollywood.
00:07:13.000See, what Jimmy Kimmel knows is when he gaslights violence against my colleague Marjorie Taylor Greene, That's going to mean more death threats.
00:07:20.000That's going to mean her town hall meetings are less safe and secure because people are going to think it's cool and acceptable and allowable to talk like that about a woman.
00:07:29.000And I reject it, and I believe that every member of Congress, every member of Hollywood, every member of society should do the same.
00:07:36.000I'm joined today live in our congressional office.
00:07:38.000We are streaming right now on Facebook, Instagram, Rumble, YouTube, Twitter, Getter.
00:08:23.000We have watched over the past few years now, especially during President Trump's presidency, where the left violently attacked Republicans.
00:08:32.000I can remember Sarah Huckabee Sanders being assaulted and attacked in restaurants when she was with her family.
00:08:46.000And so, Matt, I'm really grateful for you in your character and as a man that would stand up and defend me as a woman because we need to recognize that women are The weaker sex and men are stronger than us and we're seeing it in our women's sports.
00:09:03.000We're watching men dominate in women's sports like Leah Thomas in swimming.
00:09:08.000But here's something Jimmy Kimmel should understand is I did report it to the Capitol Police because I'm taking that call of violence.
00:09:16.000And that threat against my safety very seriously, and also for my family.
00:09:22.000Because we can't, we can't, well, what we can expect, Matt, is for the left to react to what he's calling for.
00:09:37.000And, you know, in my family, if my husband had been there and had heard Jimmy Kimmel or any other man call for me to be smacked down by another man, and he's apparently too weak to want to do it himself, My husband, you know my husband, he would not have tolerated that, and he probably would have taken action against him, and rightfully so, because men should defend women.
00:09:59.000Which, by the way, is the whole reason I was Team Will Smith at the beginning.
00:10:03.000I thought that Chris Rock's joke about Will Smith's wife was totally inappropriate because he was making fun of an immutable trait.
00:10:11.000You know, you shouldn't make fun of people ever For something that they can't change about themselves.
00:10:18.000I don't think jokes should be canceled in society.
00:10:20.000But here, you had a circumstance where Will Smith, I thought, was defending his wife.
00:10:26.000And by the way, Jimmy Kimmel, not only would Marjorie Taylor Greene's husband make quick work of you.
00:10:32.000Marjorie Taylor Greene would make quick work of you.
00:10:34.000And if you don't believe that, you can go ask the Marines that did pull-ups with her at the Iowa State Fair.
00:10:39.000And my guess is that Jimmy Kimmel would not last too long if he himself were interested in Well, I would like to point out, though, as he's calling me such a nasty name as Klan Mom, which I find very insulting.
00:11:02.000Jimmy Kimmel is in the past worn blackface, which is something I've never done.
00:11:07.000So that is something to point out is what a racist and what a pig he is.
00:11:11.000Well, his critiques of particularly you and our colleague Lauren Boebert are highly gendered critiques, right?
00:11:20.000Because he's, oh, you're a Klan mom, right?
00:11:22.000So like he's attacking you as a mom and as a woman.
00:11:25.000And then he attacks Lauren Boebert and says, oh, she looks like stepmom porn.
00:12:14.000Thomas Piketty comes in to the National Defense University and says that the way that we need to respond to China...
00:12:21.000Is to embrace global justice and democratic socialism.
00:12:25.000And he actually wrote the book, this book, Thomas Piketty, Time for Socialism.
00:12:30.000As you sit here in the Congress and fight against socialism, what is your reaction to the fact that at the National Defense University, funded by American taxpayers, you have this person coming in to evangelize values we don't believe?
00:13:14.000And I'll explain this, I'll use an analogy, kudzu.
00:13:18.000Kudzu is a vine that we brought, we imported.
00:13:22.000For those of you who are not from an SEC state, kudzu is a vine that will actually engulf you if you walk slowly through the American Southeast.
00:13:59.000And I'm using this analogy with socialism as well.
00:14:02.000You can't just kill kudzu with weed killer.
00:14:05.000You can't just cut the vine and it goes away.
00:14:08.000See, you have to literally rip it out at the root, Matt.
00:14:12.000You have to rip it out at the root and completely remove it from the soil to prevent it from growing and taking over.
00:14:21.000And that's what's happening in our country.
00:14:23.000And these Marxist ideas and socialism, and it is seeping in.
00:14:29.000It's like poison in our well, and it's like kudzu climbing all over our houses and cars and our trees and suffocating the life out of our trees.
00:14:38.000And that's what's happening in our businesses, our schools, our culture, with our young people.
00:14:44.000This socialism and Marxism is like kudzu, and we have to rip it out at the root.
00:14:49.000If socialism is the kudzu, she's the roundup.
00:14:52.000We're live from the Capitol complex in my office.
00:14:57.000Abby Morgan, I admire, rep MTG. And Jamie Wise Martin making the point, you know, it was Castro who used this notion of social democracy, social democrat, initially in some of his communication.
00:15:14.000At the National Defense University, indicative of that.
00:15:16.000We're going to skip the full Austin clip, guys.
00:15:18.000What I want to do is I want to go to some of this gendered training that we see required in the military.
00:15:26.000Outside your office, there is a sign that says there are two genders, and yet in our military, a military that in some ways is not keeping pace with some of our adversaries, they are doing mandatory training on pronouns of all things.
00:15:42.000And while, you know, Russia is out there using hypersonic weapon systems, as China is demonstrating global launch capability with hypersonics, our service members are forced to sit there and do gender identity training.
00:15:55.000I don't think that's going to help protect America very much.
00:15:58.000We're about to be invaded at the southern border, and so our military, our border patrol, and people that will be encountering the drug dealers bringing deadly fentanyl across the border, the human smuggling, potentially terrorists, very likely terrorists coming across our border because that's what they do.
00:16:13.000We know there are people coming across the border that are on the special interest list.
00:16:48.000What I think people need to understand is that when these institutions that are supposed to be focused on critical things for the benefit of America, instead, you know, Embrace kind of this social change ideology.
00:17:01.000It's not just the harm of the social change ideology.
00:17:07.000We also see the way the left has used education to try to advance their values.
00:17:12.000And the military is starting to do the very same thing at West Point.
00:17:15.000One of the things that really bothers me is the embrace of critical race theory at West Point.
00:17:20.000And when our colleague, Congressman Waltz, asked questions of Secretary Austin and Mark Milley, They were pretty honest about the fact that they embraced that.
00:17:30.000General Milley was talking about how he wanted to understand his white rage.
00:17:34.000Viewers, take a listen and take a look.
00:17:36.000This was an episode we did a clip from it on critical race theory at West Point.
00:17:43.000At West Point, lectures are presented by Dr. Carol Anderson on understanding whiteness and white rage.
00:17:50.000Since I nominate future military officers to West Point as part of my job in Congress, I wanted to know what Dr. Anderson thought about whiteness.
00:17:59.000She wrote that the Republican Party yearns for a white republic, and that the Republican Party platform is white nationalism.
00:18:08.000This is the nonsense that General Milley is defending.
00:18:11.000Instead of Dr. Anderson, we should have instructors who can teach the next generation of commanding officers to win on the modern battlefield, less CRT, more cyber.
00:18:26.000I mean, what do you think about our military service academies really starting to look more like the worst parts of our university system and not the best parts of our country?
00:18:38.000I think we're weakening America in every way.
00:18:41.000And what young person wants to go to these academies anymore?
00:18:44.000Where they know they're going to be forced to be vaccinated, whether they think they need it or not.
00:18:52.000I've had, you know, we do appoint, we appoint people to these academies.
00:18:57.000And just six months ago, I had a young man that ended up leaving, and he left because he refused to get vaccinated, and they had treated him terribly for months.
00:19:06.000Oh, I had a very similar circumstance with one of the wonderful patriotic Americans I had the opportunity to nominate, and our country is not stronger because they have driven these people away from military service.
00:19:24.000Do you support when we get back in the majority passing legislation to restore these people and to give reparations to those who've been driven out of the military?
00:20:05.000And you've been doing a tremendous amount of oversight, whether it's been on the January 6th issue, the way people have been unfairly treated following January 6th.
00:20:13.000But this is what the Health Care Committee should be doing.
00:20:15.000The Health Care Committee Within energy and commerce should be focused on whistleblowers around this vaccine and what information we can get out in the public.
00:20:27.000But I think there is often a cover-up when you have big pharma involved.
00:20:31.000And I'm not saying that I have absolute certainty of that at this stage of the game, but we should be willing to ask those tough questions.
00:20:39.000Marjorie, this week in the House Judiciary Committee...
00:20:42.000We had a bill pass committee prepare for the floor to make the Black National Anthem our national hymn.
00:20:50.000And my belief is that we are one country.
00:21:22.000So how is the proposed national hymn to differ from the national anthem?
00:21:28.000A hymn represents a song of joy and praise, an anthem.
00:21:35.000We already have a national anthem which celebrates the country.
00:21:42.000And has always been recognized as a hymn from the very start.
00:21:46.000Well, you say that, but even some of the materials from the committee staff say that, and I believe Mr. Cohen mentioned it, that Lift Every Voice and Sing is known colloquially as the Black National Anthem.
00:22:02.000When would it be appropriate for the hymn to be featured versus the anthem?
00:22:06.000So basically how it's currently done is they're often played in tandem.
00:22:10.000They're often, they're often, the way it's currently done is they're often played in tandem.
00:22:46.000Let me just pose a hypothetical and then you maybe cover that as well.
00:22:48.000Let's say 20% of Americans know what this composition is.
00:22:52.000Does the fact that the other 80% of Americans don't even know this hymn?
00:22:58.000Cause you any pause about whether we ought to declare it to be the national hymn?
00:23:02.000I'm sorry, I didn't catch that question.
00:23:04.000If 80% of Americans don't even know what this hymn is, never heard it before, does that not cause you pause about the legitimacy or the appropriateness of declaring it to be a national hymn?
00:23:13.000I don't know if the gentleman will yield.
00:23:15.000Thank you for the answer to that question.
00:23:17.000I don't know where you get your statistic that 80% of Americans don't know the hymn.
00:23:21.000I don't know that anyone has taken a poll, but it's been sung at many, many occasions, at presidential inaugurations, at Super Bowls, at Coachella's.
00:23:35.000I presume a very large number of Americans know it.
00:24:09.000We only have one national anthem, and I'm not a racist.
00:24:11.000So I don't know why we need to elevate one race over the other.
00:24:15.000We're all one nation under God, and that's the only anthem.
00:24:19.000We have one flag, and that is what's being anti-racist.
00:24:23.000When we don't divide ourselves up into groups, into races, into identities, ideologies, you know, Genders or 50 genders or whatever there may be.
00:24:34.000That's how we avoid those things by being one nation with one flag and one national anthem.
00:24:40.000And if we were to have a national hymn, what about Amazing Grace?
00:25:11.000Got a lot of folks right now agreeing with us.
00:25:14.000One Nation Under God from Abby Morgan.
00:25:17.000And, you know, the other question I'm getting a lot, I was supposed to be on Louder with Crowder today, which I was really, really looking forward to, but Nancy Pelosi held us for a 15-minute vote for one hour.
00:26:29.000Know that there are an army of Americans out there who are peaceful and patriotic and loving, and they are inspired by the work you do in Congress, as am I. Thanks for joining us.
00:26:38.000Enjoy five good minutes with Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin and my tough questions.
00:26:45.000Secretary Austin, why should American taxpayers fund lectures at the National Defense University that promote socialism as a strategy to combat China?
00:27:02.000It's an academic institution, and I don't know of any such lecture.
00:27:09.000Well that's surprising because it was widely reported.
00:27:11.000The National Defense University had Thomas Piketty come, and this was the title of his lecture, responding to China, the case for global justice and democratic socialism.
00:27:22.000So now that you know that they did this, would you agree that embracing socialism is not an effective strategy to combat China?
00:27:31.000Well, I certainly don't agree with embracing socialism.
00:27:46.000My follow-up question is, if we don't embrace it, Then, I guess, why did the National Defense University put out a statement?
00:27:54.000Again, this is funded by U.S. taxpayers, saying in this talk, Mr. Piketty will argue that the right answer lies in ending Western arrogance and promoting a new emancipatory and egalitarian horizon on a global scale, a new form of democratic and participatory Ecological and post-colonial socialism.
00:28:14.000So why would we invite people we don't agree with to evangelize views and values that we don't share at the National Defense University when we should be learning strategy about how to combat our enemies and make assessments that are accurate?
00:28:29.000And we do learn a lot about strategy and about the military and about joint force development.
00:28:43.000I don't know what the context of this particular Mr. Secretary, I've shared with you the context.
00:28:52.000The context wasn't better understand socialism so we can defeat it.
00:28:55.000The context wasn't learn about it so that we can offer countermeasures.
00:28:59.000The concept was that it's time for socialism.
00:29:02.000And the reason I know that's the context is because the lecture was pulled from a book written by Thomas Piketty entitled Time for Socialism.
00:29:11.000And I just can't help but, like, notice...
00:29:13.000And so your question was whether or not we...
00:29:15.000You guys have been blowing a lot of calls lately on matters of strategy, Mr. Secretary.
00:29:20.000You guys told us that Russia couldn't lose.
00:29:23.000You told us that the Taliban couldn't immediately win.
00:29:25.000And so I guess I'm wondering, what in the $773 billion that you're requesting today is going to help you make assessments that are accurate in the face of so many blown calls?
00:30:24.000It's in Taiwan, where China last year flew more sorties than ever before.
00:30:28.000It's North Korea on pace to shatter prior records, the number of missiles that they are testing.
00:30:34.000And so while everyone else in the world seems to be developing capabilities and being more strategic, we got time to embrace critical race theory at West Point, to embrace socialism at the National Defense University, to do mandatory pronoun training.
00:30:47.000You know, again, this is the most capable, the most combat-credible force in the world.
00:30:53.000It has been, and it will be so going forward.
00:31:27.000And maybe we would be better at them if the National Defense University actually worked a little more on strategy and a little less on wokeism.
00:31:34.000Has it occurred to you that Russia has not overrun Ukraine because of what we've done and our allies have done?
00:31:39.000But that was baked into your flawed assessment.
00:31:41.000That was baked into your flawed assessment.
00:31:43.000And so I saw that the Obama administration tried to destroy our military by starving it of resources, and it seems the Biden administration is trying to destroy our military by force-feeding it woke-ism.
00:31:56.000A big part of that dispute focuses on our military doing incredibly unserious things like critical race theory and pronoun training with genders and the socialism lecture embrace while missing out on things that are critical.
00:32:16.000That must happen, that we must get better at like hypersonics.
00:32:20.000So there was a big factual dispute there between me and the Secretary of Defense that we have to be able to unravel for the sake of the country and the decisions we make on the president's budget regarding our military.
00:32:31.000I mean, remember, these guys are asking for $773 billion in taxpayer money.
00:32:37.000So we should be getting better at the stuff that really matters like hypersonics.
00:32:41.000Now, here's the stone-cold truth that every member of the Armed Services Committee knows.
00:32:49.000The Secretary of Defense said things in response to my questions that directly contradict what his own people said to us in a briefing last month.
00:33:02.000Now, I would love to lay out for you in Technicolor exactly The capabilities in hypersonics that the Chinese have and the Russians have and that we have, whether it comes to stockpiles, volumes, speeds, targeting, all of that.
00:33:17.000I know it, but I learned it in classified setting.
00:33:21.000And so, to resolve these issues, to embrace transparency, to expose that the Secretary of Defense was either knowingly or unknowingly lying to the House Armed Services Committee, Today,
00:33:37.000I am sending a letter to Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin demanding that he declassify the materials that were provided to House Armed Services Committee members regarding the hypersonics program at our classified briefing last month.
00:33:52.000If the Secretary of Defense is confident that he's right and that I'm wrong and the U.S. is ahead and China's behind, Declassify those materials.
00:34:17.000It has a grave impact on decisions we make regarding basing, regarding offensive and defensive systems, regarding how we think about nuclear deterrence, because hypersonic systems can deliver nuclear payloads.
00:34:30.000So I know of what I speak regarding hypersonics.
00:34:33.000I know it because of the briefings that the Department of Defense has provided to us.
00:34:38.000And today I'm calling on the Secretary of Defense to make the contents of that brief in terms of the materials provided to Congress.
00:34:49.000He will be exposed for the abject liar that he was in the Armed Services Committee.
00:34:54.000Now you know that it's quite the event in a committee hearing, quite an examination, when even the President of the United States has to weigh in and comment.
00:35:08.000You may have seen yesterday on television when the Secretary of Defense was being cross-examined by one of our, how can I say it, our congresspersons, saying, what have you done?
00:35:22.000And he basically looked at him and said, what the hell do you think we've done?
00:35:25.000Why do you think you're able to fight?
00:35:26.000We've trained them and we've given them the weapons.
00:35:33.000Secretary Austin, when the addled president, when sleepy Joe has to clean up for your mess, that's when you know it really didn't go well.
00:35:43.000I mean, this went so bad for the Biden administration, somebody had to actually bring this to Joe Biden and show it to him, right?
00:35:50.000Like, I don't get the sense that Joe Biden is, like, sitting around in the Oval Office watching, like, the back-and-forth questioning in hour number two of the Armed Services Committee hearing on the budget.
00:36:02.000Then there might be other things that you would need to be paying attention to.
00:36:05.000But nonetheless, someone brought this to Biden, they showed him that it was a disaster, and he wanted to go out there and defend his terrible pick for Secretary of Defense.
00:36:14.000And look, it's no wonder Lloyd Austin is failing in a lot of these endeavors.
00:36:18.000He has had a lot of failures even before he was named secretary of defense, especially in Syria, where he was responsible for standing up a force to fight Assad to fight ISIS.
00:36:28.000And I think that like after spending around 100 million bucks, he had four or five fighters that were actually capable of surviving first contact with the enemy.
00:36:36.000So the secretary of defense, very misguided, the president of the United States trying to clean up for him.
00:36:42.000And like to the merits of Biden's point, these guys made an assessment that no matter what America did, that if we did the max of our capability, 36 days was the number.
00:36:55.000If we did the minimum, they were going to be overrun in six days.
00:36:58.000The assessment was six days to 36 days.
00:37:04.000This is the same group of people who said that the Taliban would be kept at bay for months.
00:37:09.000That there was no scenario, after all the wargaming that they did, after the hundreds of billions of dollars that we send over The Potomac River to the Pentagon.
00:37:19.000That they didn't have one scenario in Afghanistan where the Taliban overran the government.
00:37:36.000It didn't have the confidence of the people.
00:37:38.000And because like the US was kind of part of that corruption by just pouring huge swaths of money over like barbarians and cave people, we didn't want to deal with our own culpability in that matter.
00:37:51.000And so we assessed that that government would hold and 13 uniformed service members are dead As a consequence of Joe Biden's bad decisions, of Lloyd Austin and Mark Milley's bad military advice.
00:38:06.000So let's hope we get to the bottom of it.
00:38:08.000I'm confident that if the Secretary of Defense actually declassifies this information, that I will be proven right, and maybe we will even inspire a bipartisan consensus in the Congress to do more to catch up, to be in a place in hypersonics where China doesn't hold a qualitative military edge over us for any reason.
00:39:00.000I went to the great Florida State University, got a law degree from the College of William& Mary, America's first law school, by the way.
00:39:06.000Very proud graduate of that institution.
00:39:09.000And if anything, we should be doing a whole lot more to de-wokify our education, not just at West Point, not just in the military, in every aspect of society.
00:39:19.000And if we do that, we'll be a better, stronger country.
00:39:55.000Weren't these the people who told us the vaccination stopped transmission, stopped getting the virus?
00:40:00.000I think we've sort of deconstructed that myth.
00:40:02.000It used to be that if you said that the vaccine didn't stop the virus, you were a conspiracy theorist and you got deplatformed from every major technology entity.
