Gaines for Girls with Riley Gaines - A Navy SEAL's Mission to Protect America and Its Values with Tim Sheehy

00:00:00.000 hey everybody welcome back to the gains for girls podcast uh today's guest is one of the most

00:00:13.780 important people of this next election cycle uh his name is tim sheehy he is running for u.s senate

00:00:20.100 out in montana his opponent senator john tester is of course in the u.s senate now um his voting

00:00:27.740 record of course as you can imagine across the board uh but specifically looking at issues the 0.85

00:00:33.280 cultural issues uh such as if men can become women uh his voting record is abysmal asinine he votes in

00:00:42.140 lockstep with senator chuck schumer uh so this race is crucial in terms of flipping the senate

00:00:47.340 um which ultimately will be huge in the next um four years or so uh when hopefully we have a new

00:00:54.220 administration in the white house this is huge it's important he's amazing he's a navy seal

00:00:59.240 meaning of course he has served this country he knows what's at stake um there really could not

00:01:04.740 be anyone more suited more qualified to be running in his position and so he is someone who we should

00:01:11.560 all get behind we should all champion we should all support in any way and every way that we can

00:01:16.340 uh so make sure you check out the interview here with tim sheehy

00:01:19.420 well tim thank you so much for joining the gains for girls podcast um i just wanted to give you the

00:01:26.280 opportunity to tell us a little bit about your background and ultimately what led you to running

00:01:31.660 for u.s senate well first of all thanks for having me and more importantly thanks for all the critical

00:01:38.900 advocacy work you're doing um you know it's it's it's embarrassing that we as a country have to now

00:01:44.760 have a discussion about the fact that there are two genders you know most of us took that for granted

00:01:48.900 our entire lives i mean as far as i know since the dinosaurs were around there were two genders 1.00

00:01:52.960 um but of course now we have to have a national debate about it so thank you for standing up i know

00:01:58.460 you've had a ton to go a lot of harassment physical on social media uh in every way possible so thanks

00:02:05.380 for undertaking the fight but um you know why i'm in the fight now the political fight was you know i spent

00:02:10.860 a lot of my life fighting as a navy seal my wife was a marine we both met in the military at the

00:02:15.980 naval academy and were both division one athletes she was a very competitive national level gymnast 0.97

00:02:20.340 became a you know division one uh diver you know at the naval academy so uh excelled incredibly in

00:02:26.100 female athletics and then and then became of course a u.s marine corps officer so um we met in the

00:02:32.460 military we saw each other about 45 days quite across six years uh during the wars iraq afghanistan

00:02:37.700 all over the place um i ended up getting wounded so got discharged and we started our business

00:02:43.880 here in montana from scratch and it was a pure startup every every cent we had went right into

00:02:48.220 the right into the business all on black really and um and decided that we were going to start a

00:02:53.660 company that took the technology that protected me on the ground in afghanistan we had aircraft

00:02:57.540 above us with infrared cameras electro optic cameras different types of sensors and they provide

00:03:03.520 us that real-time situational awareness uh that would protect us on the ground and um uh i was a team

00:03:10.880 leader so led hundreds of americans you know all over the world five plus deployments you know

00:03:15.060 hundreds of missions and and uh it was an amazing experience obviously great days terrible days amazing

00:03:21.160 days the highs and lows of war are extreme but was so honored to lead americans in the field battle all

00:03:26.280 over the world and would love to keep doing it but after i was injured the final time that was the end

00:03:30.760 of the road so when we started the business i decided to take that technology that protected us

00:03:35.040 on the ground in the war zone and apply that uh to other tasks and about the time i was getting out

00:03:41.300 there was an incident in garrizona called the yarnell mountain fire uh and 19 firefighters the

00:03:46.600 granite mountain hot shots were burned alive and killed in that wildfire and and the reason was is

00:03:51.220 they lost spatial orientation for where the fire was where it was moving and what it was doing

00:03:56.140 and they got disoriented made a tactically wrong decision and the fire they thought the fire was going

00:04:01.600 one way it was going another way and they all died all 19 of them there's a movie about it called

00:04:05.480 only the brave and i heard about that and and and realized if i could take the technology i had if

00:04:11.860 that team leader had what i had on the ground in afghanistan they'd still be alive so i started my

00:04:16.900 company bridger aerospace uh to do that um and i actually wrote a book called mudslingers all proceeds

00:04:22.420 go to uh to the firefighting community i don't get any money but it's about the history of

00:04:25.920 firefighting from the air and all that stuff uh so i started a company to protect firefighters

00:04:30.540 from the air with the same type of technology i had as a seal team leader um and i thought maybe

00:04:35.960 one day we'd have 10 employees and you know a couple of planes but i'm proud to say we've created

00:04:39.600 about 450 jobs from scratch across all the companies we've spun out and created in the last nine and a

00:04:45.260 half years all veteran founding team and it's been tremendously successful it's been a great ride

00:04:50.880 and most importantly our company still serves the country you know we're veterans who served and we're a

00:04:56.300 great example of the fact that when veterans get out our service is not over we can keep serving our

00:05:00.000 country and we've done that through building bridger aerospace defending uh americans all across the

00:05:05.100 country from wildfire we're in texas now we were in texas fighting the smokehouse creek fire we still

00:05:09.700 have planes there i was just there last week um and it was in that mission fighting fire in chico

00:05:14.700 california in the summer of 2021 i was flying our scoopers i fly all of our planes i lead from the front

00:05:19.820 and uh while i was flying water bomber missions by day by night my pilots and i were working hard to get

00:05:26.540 american citizens allies friends out of kabul out of afghanistan before they got murdered

00:05:32.740 burned alive heads cut off shot in the street um we abandoned those people who fought alongside us

00:05:39.560 after the deadliest attack in american history um and in the in the wake of that after we spent weeks

00:05:45.080 and months getting people out bringing our allies in american citizens home spending their own money

00:05:49.440 doing it uh you know i realized you know the true rot we had going on in our government that was

00:05:54.460 it was first time i'd ever been ashamed of being an american and that's when i knew that it was time

00:05:58.640 to get involved again in public service and and that's when i started to lean into politics more

00:06:03.500 as a donor and a host and a speaker but then uh eventually what was asked hey you're pretty good

00:06:08.100 at this what we have an important race coming up would you consider running and a big decision for my

00:06:12.160 wife and i we have four young kids two girls two boys um but the way i see it america is at a

00:06:17.260 crossroads we don't have a choice but to stand up just like you stood up after what happened to you

00:06:21.540 i stood up after i saw what happened to the sacrifice of me and so many of my teammates

00:06:25.820 who fought many of them died i carried them home in boxes i refuse to let this country that we fought

00:06:32.040 for slip away and and these things you know i believe we're we've gone beyond partisanship this

00:06:37.680 is just common sense i mean we're telling people that gender is fake there aren't boys and there aren't

00:06:41.740 girls anymore uh when we you know borders aren't real uh you know we start to question what and what

00:06:47.740 the hell's going on and we have to stand up and do something about it so that's why i'm here that's

00:06:51.600 what got me involved there are so many issues that are at play and obviously we need to talk about

00:06:55.020 about about women and the protection of women today um but you know that was the impetus to me to stand

00:07:00.520 up and get involved and and i got four young kids four six eight and ten and i refuse to hand uh hand

00:07:06.560 this country over to them in the state it's in so we're we're gonna fight hard for it oh my gosh i knew

00:07:11.200 you were a navy seal i did not know that your wife was in the marine corps um i had no idea your

00:07:16.140 extensive background this is incredible um you are the exact person who we need in leadership

00:07:22.580 positions and you know you you we hear people say all the time um left right leaning everything in

00:07:28.200 between they say you know they're here to fight for america for america um but you have proven that

00:07:34.120 you you really know what it means to fight for america you put your life on the line for this

00:07:39.420 country um in terms of your leadership and your your sacrifice and understanding your role um so wow

00:07:45.660 that's incredible and we thank you for your service um of course uh when serving but even

00:07:51.220 now undertaking this fight and you were recently endorsed by president trump uh which is of course

00:07:55.580 a huge deal so how did that come about that's that's well you know it goes back to something

00:08:01.980 you said we always hear from politicians that they're going to fight and they're going to fight

00:08:05.860 for this they're going to fight for that um and as you know with your experience going to these

00:08:10.000 events you know being threatened being physically attacked uh very few of them have actually ever

00:08:14.520 fought for anything on both sides you know they haven't fought you know they they talk tough on

00:08:19.780 tv they tweet and etc etc but how many of them actually actually fought and then the whole point

00:08:25.400 of fighting is to win we fight and win it's not just fight i'm not just going to fight for america i'm

00:08:31.020 going to fight and win and and that's an important distinction because you know as i can say the

00:08:35.840 japanese fought very hard in world war ii they were very brave a bonsai charge into into machine gun

00:08:40.400 fire they'd kamikaze of their planes but guess what they lost we need to fight smart and we as

00:08:45.200 american conservatives we haven't been fighting very smart these past few years we've been getting 0.92

00:08:49.100 beat on many fronts we need to fight and win and that part of that's going to take a new generation 0.99

00:08:53.860 of leaders but uh as you said very proud to be endorsed by the former president um you know i

00:09:00.040 supported him you know from the very beginning as soon as he got in there was no question um you know

00:09:04.380 he was we had a great field of potential candidates all those others were great americans

00:09:08.140 uh we were lucky that they stepped up but uh you know since the beginning there's no question who

00:09:12.360 the nominee was going to be and uh i was very honored to have his support and um i think it's

00:09:16.780 very simple he wants to win this race as you correctly pointed out you know john tester is my

00:09:21.640 opponent i'm not running against john tester i'm running for america i'm running to save this country

00:09:25.840 he just happens to be in the way um but the point is president trump knows we have to win this seat if

00:09:31.780 he's gonna when he wins the president he's gonna get anything done he needs a senate that can pass

00:09:36.260 his legislation to move america forward so um i think he wants to win he looked at the potential

00:09:41.960 candidate field and said he's a smart young guy you know he served his country he's a successful

00:09:46.940 businessman uh he can win and we were proud to get his support that's amazing and you mentioned

00:09:53.140 senator john tester uh recently uh this week actually he voted in opposition of the i believe it was called

00:10:01.360 the protection of women and girls in olympic and amateur sports act um it was an amendment

00:10:05.700 introduced by senator tommy tuberville who of course is a coach uh an athlete himself um and it wasn't

00:10:11.620 actually even just senator tester all 51 democrats voted in opposition of protecting women and girls

00:10:19.140 in sports and so i've got to ask you you know do you feel like this represents the values and the ideals

00:10:27.060 and the the traditions of those who live in montana oh it absolutely does not and you know he bills

00:10:34.020 himself as a dirt farmer you know how many dirt farmers do you meet think there should be 18 year

00:10:39.160 old men in the same locker room as 10 year old girls i mean how many dirt farmers say well my wife's 1.00

00:10:45.880 actually my husband uh you know it's it's ridiculous and no it does not reflect the values of the state 0.81

00:10:51.520 and you know we've been hearing for 60 years about how the democrat party is the party that's 0.82

00:10:56.660 protecting women this is war on women coming from conservatives and white men and republicans

00:11:00.940 we're out to get women and now we have a party that that can't even define what a woman is 1.00

00:11:06.020 you know justice kataji brown uh in her supreme court hearings refused to define that a woman was 1.00

00:11:12.360 a thing she said well i'll have to talk to a biologist i'm not a biologist i don't think you

00:11:16.480 need a biologist to tell you what's between your legs uh so now we have a party that spent half a

00:11:21.120 century telling us that they were the party protecting women whether it was you know reproductive

00:11:27.540 rights or or you know title line now they refuse to even admit that women exist and if there was

00:11:34.520 ever a war on women that's it and you know it goes beyond just boys playing girls sports it's not just

00:11:40.600 you know an 18 year old swimming against another 18 year old who can go faster which is obviously

00:11:45.780 terrible in of itself but as you correctly stated uh during your terrible experience now on a high

00:11:51.400 school sports team you can have a 17 year old man sharing a locker room with a young girl i have two

00:11:58.540 daughters um that that should not be something that they have to endure they go on a traveling sports

00:12:04.620 team they're going to share hotel rooms with these people they're going to share locker rooms they're

00:12:07.300 going to be naked with them they're going to be in the showers with them nobody wants to talk about 0.95

00:12:10.520 these things but that's the reality we need to talk about the nitty-gritty of what these

00:12:14.800 actual policies mean when they're rolled out and that is that our daughters my eight-year-old girl 0.99

00:12:21.000 i don't let them go on public bathrooms alone because anybody can walk in there no longer are 0.51

00:12:26.300 they going to be with a nice old grandmother who's going to help them out if they have an issue

00:12:29.440 there's going to be a man in there and we saw in alaska just last week or the week before planet

00:12:33.760 fitness when a woman walked in and there was a man shaving in the women's locker room and a young 1.00

00:12:38.720 girl wrapped in a towel clearly scared and she went to the staff to get this guy out of there

00:12:44.000 and they kicked her out you know for standing up for a young woman and her comfort in a space she 0.99

00:12:49.880 should feel at least relatively safe she was the one punished so this kind of insanity has to stop 0.68

00:12:54.520 and you're absolutely right senator tester it's just a fact he voted against that he voted against it just

00:12:59.520 like he voted against the lake and riley act once again protecting young women from violent illegal

00:13:04.820 aliens voted against violent illegal criminal aliens paying for them to be here so it's crazy

00:13:14.300 and you're exactly right and talking about the reality of these things it's not as simple as just

00:13:21.860 being compassionate or empathetic or inclusive these these buzzwords these virtuous things that

00:13:27.420 in their true definition are wonderful things um it's not about that because what we're seeing is not

00:13:34.260 compassion and you mentioned kataji brown jackson uh which i it's ironic that she was the of course

00:13:40.800 sitting supreme court justice who said she can't defines what a woman is and recently she went on 0.93

00:13:46.320 the news to say she felt like our first amendment rights were hamstringing the government precisely

00:13:52.440 that is actually precisely what our first amendment rights are supposed to do and you and i both know

00:13:58.060 if our government can't abide or understand that that's precisely why we have the second amendment 0.61

00:14:02.920 so there's no surprise in the fact that she said this recently either um but defining this word

00:14:10.220 woman to your point admitting that women exist uh which i love the way you phrase that because it's so 0.50

00:14:16.240 true um would you support you know defining sex as biological and ending these debates which is

00:14:22.560 something we've seen now undertaken in the u.s house i believe representative lesko and representative

00:14:27.220 diana harshbarger um have taken under the women's bill of rights which is of course just a bill that 1.00

00:14:33.280 codifies and defines these sex-based terms um do you see that as something that of course is beneficial 0.52

00:14:41.060 and necessary and urgent i would add well i mean first of all of course i would say there's no question

00:14:49.020 i would support it i think the challenge is for me philosophically it the fact that we've been having

00:14:57.000 this discussion uh i find completely ridiculous and sometimes i have to wonder is this intentional to

00:15:02.860 distract us from other things to make us have an argument and spend our legislative energy to pass a

00:15:08.040 bill to say that women exist this is from the party that says follow the science that spend the last 0.99

00:15:13.420 decade telling us follow the science follow the vaccines don't question masks you know putting a

00:15:18.820 diaper on your face will save the world stand six feet apart don't question climate change carbon

00:15:22.860 emissions blah blah blah blah blah follow the science yet apparently science doesn't include the fact 0.98

00:15:28.160 that there are two genders so the level of hypocrisy and insanity i don't know what other word to use 1.00

00:15:33.600 other than insanity i mean it's insane to stand there and talk to someone who's explaining to you

00:15:38.040 with a serious face that women are can't be defined it's a societal construct um last i checked you 1.00

00:15:45.200 know you can't pregnant a man it just doesn't work that way so uh yes of course i would i would support 1.00

00:15:49.920 the women's bill of rights act uh but part of me says you know almost engaging in that legislative 0.91

00:15:54.760 discussion is almost a surrender in and of itself like we shouldn't have to have that discussion

00:15:59.420 there's absolutely no reason america the land of the free uh where we're supposed to be ruled

00:16:04.460 you know by a government or you know we're supposed to have a government that doesn't rule the

00:16:07.780 people it's by the people of the people for the people shouldn't have to pass an act to acknowledge

00:16:12.700 that women exist but unfortunately that's where we are and you know we're ruining the day we're 1.00

00:16:17.700 ruining 60 years um you know of marxist educational indoctrination that's what we're seeing 0.96

00:16:23.560 you know our education system has been corrupted for so long and it was intentional and it's still

00:16:28.260 happening i'm very pro-education i want my kids to learn and of course go to college if they can

00:16:33.100 and etc etc but you know what we're seeing now is no longer education it's indoctrination

00:16:37.760 and now we're feeling the results of that

00:16:39.400 to your point about where we are now as a society where we have to even you know give a definition

00:16:48.620 to these words words we've never struggled to understand to to your point since the dinosaurs

00:16:54.200 were roaming the earth um but we do and understand it's this is there are no limits if we are willing

00:17:01.520 to deny the most basic of truths if they can tell us how to think and what to say and how to feel on

00:17:07.000 this topic we're done we're done as a nation um unless we get leaders in like you uh you mentioned

00:17:13.820 you have young kids uh daughters and sons and you mentioned you know the future we're leaving with

00:17:19.660 them with i mean you must worry about this right our elected officials in society as a whole this future

00:17:27.900 that's being left behind for your kids uh my generation to to ultimately deal with

00:17:34.440 absolutely and i mean i'm so worried that's why i'm doing this and i can promise you

00:17:39.900 you know being a senator was never a life dream of mine uh sitting in a building arguing with a bunch

00:17:44.920 of 80 year old men doesn't sound like fun i'd much rather be flying water bombers and working my

00:17:48.660 farm and ranch with my four beautiful kids and my awesome wife but you know we can't stand by and

00:17:53.720 watch this continue and part of the reason we're here uh you know i was on the radio show just

00:17:58.340 day before yesterday maybe it was yesterday can't keep all the days straight i'm over the place but

00:18:02.140 uh you know i was asked what's the greatest threat to america and i said apathy and i truly believe

00:18:07.860 apathy is the greatest threat to our country and our society it's not china it's not russia it's not you 0.85

00:18:14.160 know diseases or cyber or bitcoin or whatever the hell you want to talk about it's apathy i mean the

00:18:18.780 average american is just like ah you know whatever you know six to one 18 year old kids last year

00:18:24.360 would rather lose their right to vote than lose their access to tiktok that's a huge problem for

00:18:30.160 our country because their constitutional republic which is what we are we're not a democracy we're

00:18:34.760 a constitutional republic which is very different a constitutional republic depends on an engaged and 0.98

00:18:40.260 educated citizenry a citizenry that cares a citizenry that gives a shit about what's going on in 0.95

00:18:45.380 their country right now we don't right now half of americans vote if we're lucky um you know we can't 0.96

00:18:50.880 get people to join the military because they say why would i fight for this country i don't even like

00:18:54.160 it very much because i've been told my whole life how evil it is why the hell would i join up and fight

00:18:58.580 for it so we have so much apathy in so many walks of life and unfortunately uh you and i are a great

00:19:04.520 example it took traumatic events for the two of us to step up and get involved it just did you know you

00:19:09.780 had to have a terrible experience you know with with with uh you know a man pretending he's a woman

00:19:14.640 swimming i'd have a terrible experience watching a war i fought and friends die and something

00:19:19.660 betrayed by our own government to stand up and get involved in and unfortunately that's where we're at

00:19:24.300 as a country but folks like you and i can start getting engaged running for office you know congress

00:19:29.760 is the least popular institution in america at about four percent approval rating nobody likes congress

00:19:34.480 and i come from the military and small business which have very very they're the top institutions

00:19:39.160 people love the military and small business so why would i i i jump from the best pool to the

00:19:44.300 worst pool it's because we have to and i think good people like you and i that that aren't career

00:19:48.520 politicians aren't career lawyers and lobbyists we can step up and say you know what we're going

00:19:52.480 to get into this organization um and i know you're not running for anything but i think you should

00:19:56.460 we're going to get out of this organization and we're going to make it better because this is

00:20:00.500 where the rubber meets the road and we better start here otherwise you know this country that's

00:20:03.840 been so great to so many people for so long isn't going to be around much longer

00:20:07.620 absolutely tell us about your campaign very briefly you know the issues you're running on i want to hear

00:20:12.960 about the feedback you're getting i imagine the people of montana are ecstatic with this i don't

00:20:18.800 picture montana as a place you know being from tennessee i'm from a conservative state haven't spent

00:20:24.300 a ton of time up there but i imagine the people of montana are not overly enthused with senator tester

00:20:31.100 so i want to hear about the feedback you're getting and how you plan on representing again the people

00:20:35.760 of montana well the feedback's been been great of course i'm a relative nobody when i announced eight

00:20:43.540 months ago i had about four percent name id and three percent of that's because there was a judge in

00:20:47.420 missoula named she and that's who everyone thought i was so functionally i was nobody and uh now we're

00:20:52.880 we're tied to leading in the polls and it's been a good constant you know one one direction in the

00:20:57.860 trend line up and to the right the whole time so uh we're making good progress feedback's been

00:21:01.860 great um people uh you know there's frustration with senator chester there's also this frustration

00:21:06.560 with like we discussed all these broader issues in america that people are starting to wake up and

00:21:11.740 realize you know what the hell is going on in this country how can we be giving free housing free food

00:21:16.580 free transportation free health care to illegal immigrants when we have homeless veterans committing

00:21:21.100 suicide in the street um you know how can we be telling our kids that girls are boys and boys are

00:21:26.040 girls how can we print money six times faster the economy is growing and be surprised there's

00:21:31.040 inflation you know we're we're waging a war in american energy and then acting surprised when

00:21:36.460 we have six dollar diesel so um there's a broad dissatisfaction there's also a hunger for leadership

00:21:42.560 there's a hunger i think across america but we've definitely felt it across montana they want

00:21:47.000 leadership and uh the top issues have been pretty clear actually i've been very surprised we're a big

00:21:52.220 state if you turn montana end to end you know from the northwest corner of the southeast corner

00:21:56.620 it's almost as far as florida to new york it's a long distance we're a big state fourth largest state

00:22:02.280 but even across that vast expanse um it's been very consistent number one issue is the border and all

00:22:09.820 the downstream effects of that fentanyl drugs crime even trafficking we feel it here in montana even

00:22:15.600 though we're a northern border state we are having a southern border problem and montanans are feeling

00:22:19.980 man uh second issue economy and inflation uh you know montana's a big state people got to drive a

00:22:26.480 lot uh sometimes two hours to work you know our mailbox that our ranch is 11 miles down the road

00:22:31.340 so six dollar diesel means you know it's gonna be 50 bucks to go check your mail so you know there's a

00:22:35.820 lot of uh there's a lot of impacts montana's cost of living over the past three years during

00:22:40.280 covid when everyone watched yellowstone and wanted to flee the big cities and go to montana

00:22:44.040 cost of living went through the roof and for working-class montanans who weren't making out-of-state

00:22:48.560 zoom job wages uh that was making montana unaffordable to live in and when you're telling

00:22:53.860 people they can't afford to live in their own hometown i mean they start to look around saying

00:22:57.980 what the hell's going on i mean how can i not afford to live in my right with my home um so cost

00:23:03.980 of living is going up and people are feeling the real income pinch uh that's coming from this very

00:23:08.220 inflationary environment that's of course a result of bidenomics so that's issue number two and issue

00:23:12.820 number three i would say it kind of wraps up broadly more the culture war issues you and i discussed

00:23:17.320 just the common sense issues of saying why are we arresting cops and releasing criminals why are we

00:23:22.900 kicking veterans on the street to be homeless and we're getting free housing to immigrants why are 1.00

00:23:28.200 we telling our daughters that boys are not going to play in their sports just you know the litany of

00:23:32.280 issues of common sense issues that are really frustrating a lot of americans and i think we have

00:23:36.980 an opportunity as a republican party uh nationally to really redefine the conversation we've been we've been

00:23:44.140 on our heels for a long time we've allowed the media you know the triad of the media the internet

00:23:49.280 companies uh and the democrat party to define the narrative and put us in the corner and beat the hell 0.51

00:23:55.640 out of us on you know all these cultural issues were defined as racist xenophobic anti-women 1.00

00:24:00.720 and and i think now people are waking up realizing you know who who's the real anti-woman party the party

00:24:06.760 that's trying to defend young girls or the party that says young girls are fake uh you know who's the real

00:24:11.460 party that's trying to defend working class americans the party that that panders to them or

00:24:15.740 the party that you know that is actually trying to defend their wages defend their jobs defend their

00:24:20.760 homes so i think we have an opportunity as a party to reboot our message and we have to take it i don't

00:24:25.180 think we've quite taken it yet as a party i think as republicans we need to make sure our message is

00:24:30.520 is not just one of grievance and anger and frustration it's one of hope and one of the future

00:24:35.520 because we're in a tough spot as a country no question but we've been in much worse spots before

00:24:40.080 you know it wasn't that long ago in human history we were the deadliest war war in american history

00:24:44.720 was a civil war we're slaughtering each other hundreds of thousands uh you know the great

00:24:48.880 depression people declared american capitalism was dead you know the american economy was a failed

00:24:53.720 experiment well they didn't watch the rest of the movie look at us now uh you know 1968 was it was

00:24:58.380 an extremely divisive year you know years prior we had one president assassinated another one a candidate

00:25:03.460 assassinated so brothers of course the kennedy so you know we've been in really nasty spots as a

00:25:08.340 country before but we've always emerged from those periods of time uh with incredibly with

00:25:13.540 incredible growth trajectory with strength with honor uh with hope and i think we're at that point

00:25:19.680 again where we can have a reagan-style revolution and come out of this uh with a mandate from the

00:25:24.580 american people to really lead into the next generation i think montana is going to be that battleground 0.55

00:25:28.740 we are the race that will determine control the senate uh i encourage people to go to timfremt.com

00:25:34.520 and learn about me and the race donate if you can but really the point of this is there are

00:25:39.940 three senate seats we have to win this cycle uh six-year terms for senators every two years a third

00:25:46.500 of the senate turns over uh there are three races in 2024 we have to win west virginia ohio montana

00:25:52.340 after that we're defensive for the rest of the decade we can't flip any seats that means we can't

00:25:57.680 retake the senate till 2030 and if we don't retake the senate chuck schumer and the democrats have

00:26:02.680 been very clear this is a conspiracy theory they've said what they want to do they want to end the

00:26:07.060 filibuster which means they can then add two more states dc and puerto rico which of course would

00:26:12.400 immediately add four democrat senators and expand the supreme court and pack those that court with

00:26:17.840 justices that align with their ideology that's a structural threat to the future of america that's

00:26:23.220 a structural change that will take one to two generations to undo that's how important this

00:26:27.700 race is if we don't win montana we will win west virginia i'm very confident

00:26:31.820 mansion retired jim justice is rolling in that's 50 50 that leaves up to the white house if we lose

00:26:37.500 the white house we're right back where we are now you know with tie-breaking votes coming in every

00:26:40.900 time and kamala harris has broken more ties than any of your vice president history and that's due to

00:26:45.340 one person john tester because every time there's these close votes and you hear the whispers in the

00:26:51.340 wind of the names you know who's uh you know cinema mansion rakowski susan collins you know who's

00:26:56.820 going to cross the aisle and and pass you know this legislation test was never named the name is never

00:27:02.280 mentioned he's never in that navy column you know exactly where he's going to be and that's in

00:27:05.860 lockstep with chuck schumer so this is a very important race um and and i encourage americans whether

00:27:11.280 you have know anything about montana or not whether you've been here whether you care about montana

00:27:15.500 you need to care about this race because it has national implications and it will impact the next

00:27:20.440 generation of americans i feel like i'm ready to like fight you've given me so much hope it's easy

00:27:27.700 to like you said it's easy to kind of look at what's happening and feel pretty grim um because a lot of

00:27:33.240 the stuff we're seeing is pretty chilling but you've reminded me um just for perspective again in my young

00:27:38.800 years it's hard to to really understand our history and where we've been before but but truly um it is
