00:00:00.000
What is up guys, it's Andy Priscilla and this is the show for the realists, say goodbye
00:00:20.860
to the lies, the fakeness and delusion of modern society and welcome to motherfucking
00:00:25.540
reality. Guys, today we have a full length episode. Okay. That is something that we don't
00:00:31.900
do all the time, but it is a special occasion today. We have again, our good friend, Mr.
00:00:37.840
Eric Greitens, the governor and future Senator in the house.
00:00:42.380
Who? Yeah, man. Good to be back with you. Good to be back. We have five days and a few
00:00:47.060
hours until election day, man. And nice to be here.
00:00:49.940
Yeah, bro. Always, man. We've had, you know, Eric stopped by. You've been here probably
00:00:53.480
an hour or so. We've been chatting about what's going on. Mr. DJ is here.
00:01:00.200
What do we call the people that live in Michigan? What do we call them?
00:01:04.880
I'm going to start calling them Michiganese from now on.
00:01:08.060
You can't say the other one. What's the other one? Michiganander?
00:01:13.320
No, that's awesome. You're fucking me up. I know it.
00:01:18.420
I was going to say, I was also going to say, no, I love people in Michigan. It's fine.
00:01:21.420
Hey, you know what? Michigan's a beautiful place, man.
00:01:24.560
People that haven't been to Michigan, you should go to Michigan.
00:01:27.000
Listen, we thought it was a good idea with a few days left to bring Eric back on just
00:01:32.920
to have a conversation, man, about how things are going, what's going on with the race,
00:01:36.960
what's going on with the country. So how's it going, dude? I see you hustling, man.
00:01:41.860
Big picture, man. Things are really solid on the grassroots side. Like we were out in Kansas
00:01:46.900
City just this past Monday, 200 some people out at an event. And it was really cool, man. I mean,
00:01:54.180
about half the people who came were probably for me already, but another half might've come in and
00:01:59.140
they were undecided as we were talking. And I was talking about the Ukraine and the ridiculousness
00:02:05.340
of us sending $65 billion over to the Ukraine. As we were talking about Joe Biden's military
00:02:11.880
disaster in Afghanistan, the inflation crisis, defunding the police, securing the border,
00:02:16.800
all of this stuff. People were literally shouting out from the crowd, you've got my vote. You just
00:02:22.440
earned my vote. I'm behind you. It is really palpable. We have the grassroots energy and the
00:02:28.800
grassroots support. And it's also really clear. I mean, anybody who's in the state of Missouri knows
00:02:37.300
Dude, 10 million guys for you, for those of you who haven't heard yet, they've spent $10 million
00:02:46.480
Running ads, like trash ads against Eric Gritens. And if you guys know anything that we've always
00:02:52.660
talked about, they attack the people that they're afraid of the most.
00:02:56.820
Yes. It's very clear that for Mitch McConnell and the establishment, their candidate is anybody
00:03:03.380
but Gritens. And so they are just absolutely attacking me. What this comes down to is who's
00:03:09.660
really willing to fight. Because what people have seen and what's made them disgusted is the way that
00:03:15.420
the rhinos keep caving, right? So they wouldn't pass funding for a border wall, but they spend $1.2
00:03:21.580
trillion of your money for this Joe Biden Green New Deal, right? They've completely collapsed in the
00:03:28.440
face of all these questions around election integrity, COVID tyranny, really standing up for
00:03:33.360
freedom. And so people are sick of rhinos and the left, and they recognize that if you don't have
00:03:39.340
real fighters who actually carry you in their heart, who are willing to fight with courage,
00:03:44.600
with clarity, with compassion, then the crisis that the country is in is just going to get worse.
00:03:50.420
Dude, let's talk about the kind of the uniparty. You know, I think people have a hard
00:03:54.120
a hard time understanding because, you know, for me, you know, I wasn't super politically involved
00:04:02.380
until they started closing our businesses, you know, because I spent a lot of my life and a lot
00:04:07.760
of my time helping business owners. And I saw the devastation firsthand. You know, I was getting calls
00:04:14.720
literally, you know, March 2020 for that whole month, all day, every day from entrepreneurs in
00:04:21.760
our ROT program that are like, fuck, dude, they're closing us down. Like, how are we going to
00:04:26.340
survive? And dude, hearing the panic and the pain and the fear, and then thinking about, you know,
00:04:31.960
what I went through to start business, you know, and to get in it, dude, it's so hard. Like, unless
00:04:38.020
you've done it, you cannot comprehend what you have to give. And to hear the pain and the frustration
00:04:43.880
in these people's voices really just kind of flipped me into overdrive of like getting to the truth of
00:04:49.200
what's going on. And, um, you know, I don't think that that, you know, most people, when they
00:04:56.140
understand what's going on in politics, you know, they kind of go to the polls and they say, I'm
00:04:59.560
going to vote for Democrat. I'm going to vote for Republican. I'm going to vote straight down the
00:05:03.120
card D or R. And that's, we have to be more educated in that. So can you talk a little bit about
00:05:10.100
that? Yeah. You have to vote for the person because the fact is, and I look, I'm proud to be a
00:05:16.720
Republican, but the reason the country's in crisis is not just because of leftist craziness. Okay.
00:05:22.180
And the fact is, if you had a real strong MAGA America first Republican party, we'd defeat the
00:05:28.820
left. Okay. They come with their crazy flag flying. They come with defunding the police and open
00:05:34.340
border and critical race theory and the whole transgender nonsense. They come with that. The
00:05:39.060
reason why the country's in crisis is also because of the corruption and the cowardice in the Republican
00:05:44.460
party. And it's rhinos who refuse to stand up to the left has got us into the place where we're in.
00:05:51.260
And you talk about what happened with COVID. Everybody watched. They said, okay, Walmart can
00:05:56.680
stay open, but all these mom and pop businesses have to close. Well, guess what? All of your buddies
00:06:03.480
who are entrepreneurs, all of your buddies who are actually focused on building their business and
00:06:09.020
don't have armies of hired lobbyists, what happened? They got squashed. Yeah.
00:06:12.940
And it's the people who have the hired lobbyists who actually then serve the politicians.
00:06:19.240
And what you see, what everybody sees is that there is a uniparty. It's Republicans and Democrats,
00:06:26.300
and it is a lobbyist culture that is opposed to you. They serve themselves and they do it
00:06:34.840
at the expense of the people. One of the things I did when I was governor, for example,
00:06:39.900
super, super simple example. There's this thing in Missouri called the low income housing tax credit
00:06:45.020
program. It is a complete ripoff. Audit after audit over the course of decades, it's shown that only
00:06:51.060
42% of every dollar actually went to low income housing. And they were spending about $150 million
00:06:57.260
a year on this program. So over the course of the last decade, it was $1.5 billion. Now you do the
00:07:04.280
quick math. That means over $750 million was going to special interests. Here's how the corruption
00:07:11.880
works. What they do is you send your tax money to the government. Politicians give your tax money away
00:07:19.900
to the special interests. The special interests turn around and donate to the politicians to keep
00:07:27.220
this gravy train flowing. And this is the same with the wars too, correct?
00:07:31.360
It is the same system. When you look across a whole series of different issues, you look at the
00:07:38.260
disease profit industry, you look at all these special interest tax credits, you look at all of
00:07:43.560
these things that happen. The politicians and the lobbyists work together to serve themselves
00:07:49.280
against the American people. That is what happens across the board. And when I came in, because
00:07:56.960
everybody had said, everyone knew that this program needed to be canceled. It made no sense for the
00:08:02.080
people of Missouri, but politicians weren't willing to do it. And I came in and we canceled the program.
00:08:07.060
We took it from $150 million a year to zero, because that's where it deserved to be.
00:08:13.780
It made everybody angry. Everybody. And so of course, we're attacked by the left, we're attacked by the
00:08:20.700
mainstream media. And then we're also attacked by all the rhinos in the entire political establishment.
00:08:26.240
Because keep in mind, when you're in Jefferson City, when you're in Washington, D.C., you're
00:08:30.780
surrounded by politicians and lobbyists in the media because average citizens are out living their
00:08:37.840
lives. And so you have to have people of real courage who are willing to stand up and to fight
00:08:44.540
against that every day. And it is a fight. Well, dude, listen, man, I think that's all
00:08:51.360
important information for everybody to really comprehend and think about, because, you know,
00:08:55.860
I talk to so many people, you know, when I go speak or even just through DMS or Instagram or email or
00:09:01.560
whatever, man, um, who don't really understand that the people they are attacking most, such as
00:09:10.620
yourself. And, you know, you look at Trump and you could have any opinion you want of Trump. I like
00:09:14.760
Trump. Um, but the point is, is that they create these massive movements against anyone that may come
00:09:25.480
in and disrupt their, their little programs. Exactly. Because, and people don't, people like, well, why would
00:09:30.500
they do that? Well, listen, what would you do if someone was coming into your life and disrupting
00:09:37.900
everything and on, on dismantling everything, um, in regards to your income and how you made your
00:09:45.400
money and all the little things that bro, you would fight against that, you know, and, and you
00:09:50.560
would, you would, if it's you and all your buddies and we're all in on the same thing. And in my
00:09:55.440
opinion, and I don't know how much truth there is to this because it's just my opinion and I'm
00:09:59.240
observing, but it sure looks like a lot of these people are in there just to trade on inside
00:10:04.920
information and make money personally. And they're in this little club and nobody betrays
00:10:09.520
each other. Yeah. Look, look at what Nancy Pelosi and her husband. Yeah. Are we supposed to believe
00:10:14.100
that Nancy Pelosi's husband is the greatest stock picker in the history of the United States of
00:10:18.700
America? Absolutely not. 40% fucking return. It makes no sense. So look here, it's actually very
00:10:25.100
simple and people in their hearts know that this is true. You've got the mainstream media who lies to
00:10:31.760
you and politicians who steal from you. That's the situation. And if somebody comes in like a
00:10:38.040
president Trump, like an Eric Wright is actually going to fight for you. Of course, the politicians
00:10:42.640
turn on them and the media turn on them. And that's why they're lying about me. That's why they lied
00:10:48.120
about president Trump. That's why they lied on behalf of Joe Biden with their whole Hunter Biden's laptop
00:10:53.820
is Russian disinformation. All of these lies that they push, they push it because they are trying to
00:10:59.800
protect their game. It's a game that works for politicians. It's a game that works for lobbyists
00:11:05.660
and everybody looks around and you see it obviously doesn't work for the people of the United States
00:11:09.780
of America. Now, that's the bad news. The hopeful part is right here in Missouri on August the 2nd.
00:11:16.800
This is where the one time, right, the one time with absolute clarity, people are in charge.
00:11:24.180
This is the one day there are other days where we can make our voices heard. There are other days where
00:11:27.680
we can show up or we can, you know, show up at school board meetings. We can show up at city
00:11:31.820
council. At the end of the day, the founding fathers made it so that every person gets to vote.
00:11:38.520
And that's why everybody's got to come out on August 2nd. And you have to vote. You got to get
00:11:44.120
your friends out to vote. You got to get your neighbors out to vote because that is where we
00:11:49.620
take the power back. You guys have to understand, you know, and I've learned this recently, so I'm not
00:11:55.340
like preaching from the top of the mountain. This is something I've learned just the last couple
00:11:58.860
of years. But a lot of times these primary elections are more important than the general
00:12:03.080
elections. And a lot of people don't vote in the primaries. You know, they think, OK, I'll just vote
00:12:07.980
in November and that's only when I vote. Yeah. And and because, you know, and this is where you guys
00:12:13.300
all who say, oh, well, there's no good candidates to vote for in the general. Well, the reason that no
00:12:17.800
good candidates make it to the general is because you're not understanding what the primary
00:12:22.280
elections purpose is. Exactly. You have the chance in the primary. And look, I'd be honored. Anybody
00:12:28.040
who's listening to listening today, please come out and vote for Eric Greitens on August 2nd in the
00:12:34.440
United States primary Republican primary here in the state of Missouri. Very important, guys. And it is
00:12:39.380
important that you get people because like, look, you guys are the guys, the people listening to the
00:12:44.420
show, you guys are ahead of the curve. OK, you're the people who are shedding truth and information to
00:12:50.960
people before it catches them, you know, six months down the road, which has been the case here most of
00:12:56.620
the time. Have I been wrong about shit? Sure. Everybody's wrong about shit, but I'm wrong. I'm
00:13:00.880
right about most shit. Yes. And, you know, so I'm telling you guys, you know, you guys are the gatekeepers
00:13:07.700
to to getting this free society back and, you know, talking to your friends and having conversations
00:13:14.100
about the importance of a primary. And this goes for any of you guys wherever you live, not just Missouri's
00:13:19.200
primary. Now, our primary is August 2nd. And you should be talking to your like minded friends
00:13:24.180
and your friends who have maybe heard about Eric's scandal and when he was governor and shit like that
00:13:30.500
and bringing him up to speed. You know, it's been a proven fact that those allegations were greatly,
00:13:36.580
greatly fabricated. And there's legal ramifications happening to the people that did those things.
00:13:41.960
Yeah. The Soros funded prosecutor admitted to wrongdoing. She's on the path to lose her law
00:13:46.580
license. The corrupt FBI agent was charged with seven felonies for perjury and evidence tampering
00:13:51.340
and pled guilty. The good news is at the end of the day, the people of Missouri know the truth.
00:13:57.480
They know that I am a fighter for them. And also, folks, if you haven't actually voted in a primary
00:14:03.800
before, it's super simple. You just show up at your polling place, the same place where you always go
00:14:09.720
to vote. You show up there, you ask for a Republican primary ballot, and then you can go and you can
00:14:15.620
circle in a little bubble next to Eric Reitens. And I'd be honored to have your vote. But it's very
00:14:20.920
simple. And again, a lot of people out there who might be listening who haven't voted in a primary
00:14:25.720
before. Super simple. You do it on August 2nd. If you're not going to be in town that day, you can go
00:14:31.100
early. You can go to your county courthouse, your county office, and you can actually cast your vote
00:14:36.360
there. If you're voting Democrat, you can vote like a thousand times. So that's good news too.
00:14:43.020
Like all your relatives that are dead, they can vote, but only Democrat.
00:14:48.880
So that's good news for you guys. But yeah, man, I think the process, a lot of people,
00:14:57.940
they don't understand enough about the process of how these things happen. I've talked to so many
00:15:03.280
people who are like, yeah, man, you know, I believe in America, but like every time I go
00:15:10.120
to vote, it's a bunch of shitbags. It's like, yeah, because you're not fully participating in
00:15:13.940
I think that's a two-part thing though. Like I think, because like I know even me, like I know
00:15:17.820
I'm a lot younger than you guys, but right, but like growing up in high school, that, it wasn't
00:15:22.140
really like, it wasn't really taught. You know what I'm saying? So you like look at it, it's like,
00:15:26.100
Are you sure? Are you sure you were like doing some other stuff?
00:15:28.720
I mean, nah, but no, I mean, I think it's a two-pronged thing, right? Like I think-
00:15:33.720
It's just very, very possible that I might've just missed that in high school because I don't
00:15:37.580
Well, that's what I'm saying. Like, but like, I mean, I think that's part of the intention,
00:15:41.300
right? Like, I mean, you know, why, why, why promote American citizens to be involved in these
00:15:47.160
type of things, right? Like, I mean, there's a lot of fucking people that don't even know the
00:15:50.380
three branches of government or what the actual purpose of the legislative branch is and how it works.
00:15:55.060
And like on the state level, I mean, like there's a lot of things that are left out. So I think that
00:15:59.440
if there's anything that the last two years have taught us is that we as American citizens have to
00:16:05.240
take, um, a more serious role in our obligations as American citizens. Like that means knowing what
00:16:11.780
the fuck the three branches are and why they're so important.
00:16:13.620
And understanding the process of how these things happen.
00:16:15.620
Because like, dude, there's going to be a lot of you guys out there who are either running for,
00:16:19.680
for office or you have a friend who's running for office because dude, the people are going to take
00:16:24.600
the government back. That's what's going to happen. And the unit party is going to try to resist this
00:16:29.500
as much as they can, but it's inevitable. It's going to happen. But the only way it truly can
00:16:33.980
happen is, is that we all educate ourselves on that. We need to vote in the earlier elections so
00:16:38.700
that some of these people who are just regular people, you know, these people, uh, you know,
00:16:44.880
Eric's your fund is like one 10th, the size of these other guys money because you're a regular dude.
00:16:51.760
That's going in and trying to run against establishment people. So like we could defeat
00:16:56.060
that with grassroots, but only if you participate in the process.
00:16:59.800
Yes. And that's the good news. Everybody has the power in their hands. The power is in your hands
00:17:05.920
to vote. And if you really want to exercise your power, make sure that your friends and your neighbors
00:17:11.200
and your family are also going out and voting. And when we do, when we have citizens coming out
00:17:18.440
to vote, what happens is the power comes back into our hands to get to your point, DJ,
00:17:23.380
the elitists don't want everybody to vote. They'd love for it to be just all the party officials and
00:17:29.260
all of the insiders and all of the establishment who choose which candidates in either party actually
00:17:35.220
get to run in the general election. That works for the establishment. That works for the political
00:17:39.800
class. That works for lobbyists. When you guys decide, when we decide we're going to get engaged,
00:17:45.680
we're going to run, we're going to vote, we're going to take over. Then the power comes away from
00:17:50.480
the elite and back to the American people. And that's the opportunity that we have in Missouri
00:17:54.760
next Tuesday, August 2nd. Dude, let's just assume that nobody has heard you on the show before
00:18:01.280
because we're constantly getting new listeners every week. What are the problems, bro? What are the
00:18:07.360
things that you're going to go in and do? Let's talk about that. Well, sure. First, we'll talk about
00:18:12.420
the approach that I bring. Look, I'm a Navy SEAL, spent a lot of my life doing humanitarian work
00:18:18.500
overseas. When I came back from Iraq after my team had been hit by a suicide truck bomb,
00:18:24.060
donated my own combat pay, started an organization to help returning wounded and disabled veterans come
00:18:29.820
back and build successful and purposeful lives here at home. My motivation in life, whether it was in
00:18:35.820
the SEAL teams, doing humanitarian work, serving my fellow veterans, serving as governor,
00:18:39.660
is to serve people, to make a difference for them. We are only, all of us, granted and blessed
00:18:46.440
with so many days here. And I believe that we all have to live purpose-driven, thoughtful lives while
00:18:53.880
we are here to make a difference. That's what I'm here to do. And it's what I've spent my life doing.
00:18:58.580
And it's why the political establishment hates me, because I'm willing to speak the truth. And because
00:19:03.520
I care about people, I'm willing to fight for them. When you look at the country right now,
00:19:08.460
the country is obviously in crisis. We're in crisis because of leftist craziness, because of
00:19:13.780
mainstream media lies, because of rhino corruption and cowardice. When you look at what's happening,
00:19:18.620
first of all, with inflation, right? Who would have thought that we would ever live in an America
00:19:24.640
where gas prices are higher than Hunter Biden? Okay?
00:19:30.520
I don't know if they're that high, bro. Right? Hold on, hold on. I was not expecting that.
00:19:37.820
I'm like, oh, I'm good. We're having a serious couple.
00:19:39.920
I'm telling you, there's some motivational shit coming out of that. Fucking, oh, Jesus.
00:19:42.980
But it is. Like, look, that's the deal, man. You got gas prices higher than Hunter Biden.
00:19:47.740
You know I'm not afraid to disagree with you, bro.
00:19:54.660
So, look, what's happening is everybody's hurting, right? And the seriousness behind this is that
00:20:03.140
the gas prices and the prices of food, the reason why people are hurting is because of a deliberate
00:20:10.940
leftist attack. They knew what they were doing. When President Trump was in office, America was the
00:20:17.140
number one energy producer in the world. And if you told me back when I was serving in Iraq in 06,
00:20:23.980
07, that America was going to be the number one energy producer in the world, it would have seemed
00:20:27.380
like a pipe dream. Right? But we got it accomplished with President Trump. President Biden comes in,
00:20:32.620
in his very first day in office, he kills the Keystone XL pipeline. And as everybody recognizes,
00:20:38.440
the war on energy has inflationary effects, second and third order effects throughout the economy,
00:20:44.400
because it's not just the price you pay for gas, but everything you buy in a store,
00:20:50.200
everything that you order online, the price of energy is baked into the price of moving those
00:20:56.040
goods there. If there's manufacturing that took place, it's baked into the price of manufacturing.
00:21:02.060
So the left a very specifically targeted energy. It made America weaker and it hurt everybody.
00:21:09.020
Then you look at violent assaults and murders all across the country. And it's easy to talk about
00:21:15.800
these things statistically. It's important to remember that every single murder, every single
00:21:20.900
violent attack destroys lives, destroys families. I think we were on the show earlier. I won't repeat
00:21:28.460
the whole story, but you guys know I personally responded to a shooting down in the city of St.
00:21:32.940
Louis where two young men were killed, 19 and 20 years old, had 15 to 25 automatic gunshots went off
00:21:39.500
in my home city. Sounded just like Iraq, just like Afghanistan, right? That is happening. And it
00:21:45.940
tears families apart. You, so you have, you have that crisis. You guys got to understand he was,
00:21:52.060
you were having dinner on a patio or something, right? Yeah, man. And, and these dudes ripped off
00:21:56.580
automatic fire and Eric ran to the scene and had this kid basically die right in his arms. I mean,
00:22:02.560
this is, that's not a story to skip over. Yeah. Well, thanks bro. Look, it speaks to your character.
00:22:08.200
I just didn't want you to sell that short. Thanks. Well, look, I mean, I, I, I carry a
00:22:13.340
pistol. I was with a buddy who's a special operations medic. He's actually a much better
00:22:16.980
medic than I had a med kid in the car. And yeah, we jumped in my car. We drove about the 50 meters
00:22:21.200
up to the scene. The first two guys on the scene and we started working on these two young kids.
00:22:25.200
Yeah. Okay. These kids, they were 19 and 20 years old. Yeah. They had their entire lives ahead of
00:22:30.400
them and they were good kids. Yeah. Not a parking ticket between the two of them. They'd been
00:22:35.000
working through all of the Corona virus nonsense. They'd done internships. They loved music. They
00:22:40.040
had bright futures and it was all ended that day. And then I went and I met with their families.
00:22:46.580
Right. And because they wanted to know in one case, the mother and brother and the other case,
00:22:51.440
the father wanted to know what their, their sons and brothers last moments were, were like. And they
00:22:56.600
wanted to know, frankly, also that there were people there helping them at the, at the end,
00:23:00.400
that their, that their, their sons didn't die alone. And I, the reason I, I mentioned this is
00:23:06.540
that the, the increase that we are seeing in murders and violent assaults around the country
00:23:12.980
is directly attributable to the left's defund the police attacks.
00:23:17.680
It is affecting, it is affecting every single community. Like right now in Missouri, there is
00:23:24.160
a crisis of recruiting police officers. There's also interestingly a crisis in, in military recruiting.
00:23:30.120
As you, as you've seen, but it is impossible to recruit, uh, the police officers that we need
00:23:36.320
and the quality that we need because of this great cultural attack against police officers.
00:23:41.700
So you've got inflation, you've got the, you've got the rise in violence. We have the crisis at the
00:23:47.280
border, which again, we talked about a little earlier on another episode of the show, but I believe
00:23:52.120
in frontline leadership. You got to go and see things for yourself. And I went down, not just to the
00:23:57.040
Arizona and Texas sides of the border where I met with law enforcement, but I also went to the Mexican
00:24:01.840
side of the border and I went and I saw what is happening there. And the crisis is far, far, far
00:24:09.640
worse than the mainstream media will tell you. Um, you know, I went down to the border, thousands of IDs
00:24:15.280
along the, along the river. And you ask yourself, why are the people throwing their IDs down? If they throw
00:24:20.620
their IDs down because under Joe Biden's policies, they walk across the border. They're not trying to
00:24:26.360
be sneaky. They walk straight up to the customs and border patrol agents, those customs and border
00:24:31.520
patrol agents, then take them to an office. And at the office, they're asked if they have an ID
00:24:37.060
and they say no. And then they're asked what their name is. Their name is written down on a piece of
00:24:42.400
paper. They're then handed a piece of paper and told to show up in an American court in 90 days.
00:24:46.960
And then they're let loose. Um, then they're let loose into the United States.
00:24:51.000
On the immigration thing. Did you see that? Like now by the Biden administration is planning to give
00:24:56.060
out IDs to illegal immigrants. You guys see that? Yeah. What do you mean? Like they're going to give
00:25:01.620
illegal immigrants actual state ID or whatever state or federal ID. Like, how are they doing it?
00:25:09.920
It's a program they're doing to be able to identify the illegal immigrants. What's your opinion on why
00:25:15.240
they're allowing this to happen? I think you have, you got a couple of things at play.
00:25:19.500
So big picture, when you step back, we have to recognize what's at work. These people are not
00:25:26.320
just stupid. They're not just incompetent. They are trying to destroy the country. They're trying
00:25:32.880
to destroy the United States of America. And if you look back historically at the playbook,
00:25:38.660
how do you destroy an empire? How do you destroy a great country? How do you destroy a nation state?
00:25:42.820
How do you destroy a city state? They're following the playbook. You debase the currency.
00:25:47.520
Inflation goes out of control. You create division at home through things like critical race theory
00:25:52.500
and their transgender nonsense. Identity politics. Identity politics. You have military disasters
00:25:57.400
abroad. And one of the other things that you do is that you open up the border, right? And that's
00:26:03.860
what they're doing. All of this, the millions of people who are crossing the border into the United
00:26:10.380
States of America. This is destabilizing the country. It is a humanitarian crisis. It's a crime
00:26:17.380
crisis. It's an economic crisis. It's a national security crisis. It's a culture crisis. It is a
00:26:22.440
cultural crisis. All of these things are done on purpose. So you ask yourself, big picture,
00:26:29.480
why are they pursuing all of these policies which clearly hurt people, which clearly don't work?
00:26:34.420
Defund the police clearly leads to more murders and more violence. It does not work. The open
00:26:39.600
border, largest humanitarian crisis in the world, largest human trafficking in the world right now
00:26:44.280
on our southern border because of Joe Biden's policies, not to mention all of the other effects
00:26:49.620
that it has. These are cruel policies. Look at COVID tyranny, keeping kids with disabilities out of
00:26:55.800
school for a year. That is a cruel policy that hurts kids. Why are they pursuing this agenda? Why attack
00:27:03.640
American energy independence? It makes the nation weaker from a national security perspective? We
00:27:09.640
talked about from an economic perspective. Why are you kicking hundreds, hundreds of elite Navy SEALs,
00:27:18.460
special operators out of special operations because they don't want to take a COVID vaccine? Who does that
00:27:23.980
benefit? It benefits Russia. It benefits China. It benefits the Taliban. It benefits Al Qaeda. It does not
00:27:29.300
benefit the United States of America. You ask yourself, why are they doing this? It is part
00:27:34.060
of an active plan to destroy the United States of America. And the open border is part of that plan.
00:27:40.680
But I, you know, it's, I feel like, and I'm sure you guys will agree that more, more Americans are
00:27:47.520
paying attention to this, right? Yes. And the reason is, is because why we're fucking feeling it,
00:27:52.640
right? It affects everybody. Yeah. And people are really starting to feel it. But like, dude,
00:27:55.740
I'm over here thinking, and it's like, it almost reminds me of how, uh, you know, uh, terminal
00:28:02.720
illness and people, right? Like, I'm not sure if you guys knew this, but you know, most people,
00:28:08.680
when they get these terminal diagnoses of like cancer and stuff, they don't, they don't get
00:28:13.320
those diagnoses in regular fucking health checkups, right? It's because they feel some pain or
00:28:17.980
something's off, right? They go in, Oh, you're about to die in a couple of weeks. Right. And I feel it's
00:28:22.480
eerie because I feel like that's exactly where we are right now. And like, it makes me wonder,
00:28:27.380
like, if that's also part of the plan, because you got a lot of Americans, yes, we're awake,
00:28:31.520
we're feeling the pains, we're feeling it. But because it's on all fucking fronts, I feel like
00:28:37.420
there's a, there's still a sense of like, just helplessness and hopelessness of like, okay,
00:28:40.900
but like, how do we attack all of it? That's the intent. Yeah. That's the intent. The intent is
00:28:46.100
demoralization of society, uh, to destabilize society, demoralize it first. And that's why,
00:28:52.020
I, you know, you tell me if you agree or not, but you know, when they push Biden out on stage
00:28:57.820
and he looks like he's like the weakest possible human that it could be, or Nancy Pelosi, who is
00:29:03.080
like, you know, fucking, I don't know if she's drunk or what they say or whatever, but I mean,
00:29:09.240
clearly she's very old and not right. And when they push these people out as the leaders of this
00:29:16.120
country, we have to understand that, you know, if China had like leaders that appeared that way,
00:29:22.920
what would you think of China? Would you be scared of China? Right. Would you be afraid of China?
00:29:27.580
Would you be scared to stand up to China? And that people are underestimating how deep this goes,
00:29:34.960
because it appears to be, and by intent, uh, Oh dude, these guys are just old. And no,
00:29:41.060
there's people behind that running the show that this is intentional. Uh, it's not just
00:29:47.940
demoralization, destroy, uh, make it hard on the American citizens, but it's also lower the standard
00:29:53.900
of America in the eyes of other countries so that we are not the traditional powerhouse that we have
00:30:01.020
always been. 100%. Let me tell, let me tell you want people to lose. They want people, cause dude,
00:30:05.820
there's people all over the world that, that, that want freedom. Yes. And they see America as a big
00:30:11.240
beacon of freedom. And when you make freedom look pretty shitty and weak and stupid, they stop wanting
00:30:17.480
it. So it's not just about the demoralization of our country. It's about demoralization of the
00:30:22.220
entire globe so that we can install one world system. And that system they call democracy, but it has
00:30:30.080
nothing to do with democracy. It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a communist ideology. It just is.
00:30:34.100
Yeah. And let me, let me tie these two together because the personal analogy is pretty accurate.
00:30:38.900
Yes. Yes. A hundred percent. And let me, let me tie this together. The personal analogy is actually
00:30:43.740
really good, right? So I mentioned to you, I came back from Iraq after my team had been hit by a
00:30:48.580
suicide truck bomb. I was fortunate, but I worked with a lot of men and women who'd been seriously
00:30:52.600
injured. Okay. The most serious injury, and you and I have talked about this before, Andy, the most
00:30:57.860
serious injury that someone faces is not the loss of a limb, not the loss of eyesight. It's not even
00:31:03.860
PTSD or TBI, right? Not the loss of hearing. The most serious injury you can do to someone
00:31:11.220
is that they end up in despair. When people really went down, they were in despair and then they start
00:31:18.360
drinking and then they turn to drugs and they lose a sense of purposelessness, right? And that's where
00:31:23.820
you get not only the suicide crisis, right? But you have all of these terrible effects. When people,
00:31:29.960
when people have a sense of purpose, okay, yeah, I lost my arm, but I got a sense of purpose. I got
00:31:35.540
a mission in front of me. They continue to attack. They continue to work and they figure out a way to
00:31:39.340
take that pain and turn it into wisdom. They take that suffering and they turn it into strength.
00:31:43.980
The greatest injury you can do to a person is despair. What's the greatest injury you can do to
00:31:48.500
a nation? Despair. And what they're trying to do is to actually through flooding the zone with all of
00:31:56.960
these issues. I mean, if it were just violent crime, okay, all right, figure it out. Hey, we'll deal with
00:32:02.320
it. But it's violent crime and it's inflation and it's COVID tyranny. And they're going to censor you
00:32:08.100
and maybe take your job. If you say the wrong thing on social media, even if you ask the wrong
00:32:14.380
question, they might actually take away your freedom to speak on those platforms. So you have
00:32:20.660
this attack, they go after the kids. You have this attack on all fronts and the enemy wins,
00:32:28.300
evil wins when righteous people decide, I don't want to fight anymore. They want to demoralize you.
00:32:36.040
What we have to do is to recognize that, you know what? While as hard as that is,
00:32:40.660
courage is also contagious. And when people see their friends stepping up, they say, you know what?
00:32:45.740
I can do that. I can actually step up. I can share the fact that I listened to the Real AF podcast
00:32:51.640
and I can share it with some friends. I can tell people where I get my news. I can tell people that
00:32:56.980
I went out. We just did a screening of 2000 mules down in Branson, Missouri. A couple hundred people
00:33:01.880
came out as a demonstration of the kind of courage that this takes. This is a movie that documents with
00:33:09.700
exceptional clarity. The scheme that was used to steal the 2020 election. The left cannot dispute
00:33:18.320
the facts in the movie. So what do they do? They try to censor it and call people names, conspiracy
00:33:25.040
theorists for sharing the movie, et cetera. Terrorists. Yeah. But today, Democrat, Republican and
00:33:31.440
independent, more people recognize that there was massive fraud in the 2020 election than it did in
00:33:37.040
December of 2020. So courage works when people are willing to stand up. Eventually, that big wave
00:33:43.920
of lies, it is a powerful wave of lies, but eventually it does crash on the rock of the facts.
00:33:49.760
But for it to crash, for the truth to come out, people have to act with courage. So to your point,
00:33:56.200
this is exactly what they're trying to do. And it's through the demoralization at a national level
00:34:01.820
who wins. The elitists win. The elitists win. And one thing that's interesting, people always ask
00:34:08.440
the question, well, why would they do that? Well, why would Mao engage in the communist revolution
00:34:17.140
in China, murder tens of millions of people through starvation where they wanted control?
00:34:22.840
It's always true with leftist tyranny. They don't care about whether or not you're flourishing.
00:34:29.140
They don't care about your health. They don't care about society. What they care about is their
00:34:32.800
control. That's what tyrants want. And that's why we have to have a freedom movement of patriots who
00:34:39.540
are willing to stand up against that tyranny to fight not only for our own freedom, but also for our
00:34:44.860
neighbors. And what that means, for example, you go back to the First Amendment. You think about all the
00:34:50.400
leftist tyrants who want to censor people? I had a fourth and fifth grade teachers, so honored to
00:34:55.120
have them, a guy named Mr. Rothman. And I remember him saying, here's what the First Amendment means.
00:35:00.500
It means, I may not agree with what you have to say, but I will fight to the death for your right to
00:35:08.260
say it. And we have to stand up and fight for the freedom of every American against leftist tyranny.
00:35:16.100
That's the nature of the challenge that's in front of us. And again, the good news is
00:35:20.460
courage is contagious. And when people act, you think about how do you, again, this works at a
00:35:26.880
personal and a national level, right? So emotion follows motion. If you're feeling down, what do
00:35:32.540
you do? Hey, crank out 10 pushups. You're going to feel better. Go for a walk. You're going to feel
00:35:36.440
better. Run them out. You're going to feel better. You will physiologically and experience shows you,
00:35:41.760
you will feel better if you take action in the same way. If you feel down about the country,
00:35:46.940
take action. Yes. Decide right now, I'm sending this podcast to three friends. Decide right now,
00:35:53.760
I'm going to vote. Decide that you're going to do something you've never done before. You've never
00:35:58.120
gone out and told people who you're going to vote for and that it's important that they go out and vote,
00:36:01.840
but do it. Go and share that with people. And what you will find is that one small action leads to
00:36:07.640
another action and that taking that action will help you understand and everyone will see this
00:36:14.360
is how we take our country back. What do you think the, what do you think about people falling into
00:36:24.020
the mentality of, you know, I'm part of the silent majority because it's very clear from my point of
00:36:31.640
you that that was a phrase that was coined looking in hindsight to create a virtuous feeling around
00:36:40.820
keeping your patriotism silent, which has now allowed them, uh, meaning people who do not
00:36:47.620
represent what true American culture is about to come in and operate less impeding. Do you agree with
00:36:55.940
that? I think that's such an important point. The tyrants want you to be silent. The tyrants want
00:37:03.740
you to hang your head. The tyrants want you to look the other way. The tyrants want you to self
00:37:10.700
censor on social media so they don't have to censor you. Tyranny works because tyrants are always a
00:37:19.000
minority. Tyrants never have enough power to actually suppress everyone. So what they do is
00:37:26.520
they try to make examples of people. If you think they're spending $10 million against Eric Greitens
00:37:32.040
right now, why? Because I was the first dude in the country to say, I'm voting against Mitch McConnell.
00:37:37.600
I'm sick of these rhinos. We need new America first leadership. So they're trying to make an example
00:37:42.180
out of me to attack me. What tyrants do is that they, they see, Hey, this is somebody who on their
00:37:48.420
social media stood up and said they supported the police. This is somebody on their social media who
00:37:53.240
said, Hey, I'm actually looking at the data out of Israel and I'm not sure that these vaccines are
00:37:58.540
working and they shut them down. And so what they want to do is make examples out of people. When,
00:38:04.640
when, when virtuous people are silent, tyrants win evil wins in that silent compliance. What
00:38:13.080
everyone needs to do is to stand up because there are far, far, far more of us than there are of
00:38:19.960
them. But, but the elite tyrants win when people stay silent. So don't stay silent, especially coming
00:38:27.320
back to it. August 2nd, make your voice heard at the ballot box, get out there and vote. You guys have
00:38:32.680
to understand this is not just guessing either. Like I'm a data driven human. You know, when I,
00:38:37.520
when I say, Hey, this is where we're at, this is where I think the spread is in terms of like
00:38:41.880
patriotic people versus the leftist, you know, you guys have to understand there's, there's,
00:38:48.120
there's real world evidence of this, what Eric just said is being true. You know, people are rejecting
00:38:53.420
cancel culture. People are rejecting the far left, uh, sexualization of children. People are,
00:38:59.840
and they're showing that by things they're, they're rejecting the woke values because they're
00:39:04.540
identifying that wokeness does not correlate with true American culture of unity, um, and togetherness
00:39:11.340
and lifting each other up. And instead creates this fake attack culture based around virtue,
00:39:17.460
which isn't even real, right? Like they come out and they say, Oh, I'm so offended. You're not
00:39:22.260
offended. You're trying to control my voice. Yes. And so we have to understand the game that they're
00:39:28.680
playing. You know, there's a famous saying when you know your enemy and then you know yourself,
00:39:33.300
you cannot be beat. Right. I think you told me that. Yes. It's Sun Tzu. Yeah. Sun Tzu. Right.
00:39:38.680
And he talks about, if you know yourself and you know your enemy, you'll win a thousand battles.
00:39:42.420
Right. If you only know your enemy, right. And you don't know yourself, chances are 50, 50,
00:39:48.420
you only know yourself. You don't know the enemy chances are 50, 50. And if you don't know yourself
00:39:51.980
and you don't know your enemy, you're going to lose. Yeah. Yeah. You said that to me,
00:39:55.920
like on a phone call, not too long ago, we were talking about this, but you know, I think people
00:40:01.000
awakening to reality. And, and also I think like, it's important for people to understand
00:40:07.360
that not everybody, not everybody is awake yet. And when I say awake, they haven't realized that
00:40:13.760
the mainstream media is highly manipulative. You know, they're kind of like just going on with
00:40:18.360
their life. They're good hearted people. They mean well, and they hear these virtuous statements like,
00:40:23.040
you know, that the far left makes or the left makes. And they're like, well, I agree with that
00:40:27.640
too. The problem is guys is they, they speak to you and then they turn around and do the exact
00:40:32.300
opposite. And so, you know, that's, that's one problem. And then there's another problem that I
00:40:37.700
see, you know, like there's been such a contentious battle between the left and the right that it's
00:40:43.520
like, you can't have a conversation or you like, I see these interviews and you ask like leftists,
00:40:48.620
if they'd be friends with a Republican, they're like, absolutely not. But then you see the, the,
00:40:53.900
the ones they do with the conservatives and the conservatives are like, well, why would I be
00:40:57.480
friends with a total dumb ass? Like there's no there, you guys have to understand that for us to
00:41:03.880
win this as people, we have to make room for the people that are just figuring out what's going on
00:41:10.060
and not bully them or attack them because they fell for something that honestly, they, they had a
00:41:17.260
reasonable belief to believe. I mean, all of us have a, we should have a reasonable expectation
00:41:22.960
in this country that the media is telling us the truth. We should have a reasonable expectation in
00:41:26.760
this country that the people in Washington represent the people we should, that they act in our best
00:41:30.640
interest. We should have a reasonable expectation that when Dr. Fauci comes on TV, that this dude ain't
00:41:37.260
fucking around and what we've learned and what even dude, I've had so many people who lean left or
00:41:43.440
lifelong Democrats who reach out to me and they're like, bro, I agree with the things you say. But
00:41:49.660
like, when I try to like talk about, like, I can't escape my own friend bubble, you know,
00:41:54.400
cause they've been friends with these and it's so like, so it's like they're having like an identity
00:41:59.140
crisis. And I think it's important for everybody to realize that, you know, we have to make room for
00:42:05.660
people. We have to make room for people to, uh, come to the side of American culture and values that
00:42:12.540
have been told for the last 15 years that America's bad and it's oppressive, that it's this, that it's
00:42:17.540
that all of those, bro, we're the least oppressive country on the fucking planet. And there's no
00:42:22.120
arguing that. That's why people from all over the place, we've got two right here, one from Bosnia
00:42:27.120
and one from India. That's why they come here. They come here because they're escaping the oppression.
00:42:32.840
And you know, we have people in America who say, Oh, we're so oppressed dude. Is America perfect?
00:42:37.700
No, fuck. No, dude. Am I perfect? Fuck. No. I got a lot of holes in my game. America's got a lot
00:42:43.740
of holes in its game. And dude, you know what our job is as this generation is to fix those fucking
00:42:48.440
holes so that our kids and our children and the people coming behind us don't have to. And if we
00:42:53.980
don't at this time, all of us right now, we're going to be part of the story of the fucking generation
00:42:58.860
that lost this country. A hundred percent to two thoughts on this. Here's, here's how I've been
00:43:03.940
thinking about this lately. I think that in the face of evil, we have to pursue justice.
00:43:11.320
Okay. So there is true evil. These are people who knowingly like the Soros funder prosecutor in St.
00:43:17.780
Louis who turns murderers loose onto the street, right? People who knew that the vaccines were going
00:43:24.140
to hurt people and refuse to let that information out. People who have purposefully chosen that they're
00:43:31.640
going to engage in policies that they know are going to hurt people. That is evil. Evil is different
00:43:37.040
from error. We are all in error sometimes and error has to be met with grace. And we have to recognize
00:43:44.380
if we're going to move the country forward, that we're all in error at one point or another. And
00:43:49.940
that a lot of people, yeah, they trusted the mainstream media. Yeah. I mean, it's,
00:43:55.560
and they should be able to, and you should, should have been able to now we can't,
00:44:00.760
but there were a lot of people who it took them a little longer to see that this is what was
00:44:04.460
happening. Think of how crazy it is now. If you had, when, when Andy, when you and I were in high
00:44:09.960
school, if somebody went around saying, well, I don't trust the centers for disease control.
00:44:15.200
I don't trust you. You would have thought that they were a loony. Or if, even if there's somebody
00:44:18.760
come up and said, I don't trust the newspaper. You might've thought, I mean, come on, man. The
00:44:22.460
newspaper is like the weather and sports and like what's happening in the world. What do you mean?
00:44:25.520
You don't trust the newspaper today. Today, only 11% of Americans, right? Remember it's 89% of
00:44:33.720
Americans do not trust mainstream TV media. It's only 11% of Americans who have a high degree of
00:44:42.180
trust in mainstream TV media. That's one of those data points that shows where people are. You know,
00:44:46.980
you look at CNN. Okay. CNN just lost a shit ton of people. They had to change ownership,
00:44:51.260
right? They were so discredited that they had to change ownership. And I don't, I mean,
00:44:56.400
I heard people saying it's been better, but I haven't checked it out. Yeah. It's still,
00:44:59.920
I mean, I mean, better, but okay. Well, you know, if they're doing better, I give them a little
00:45:03.060
credit for doing better, but like, we need a lot better. Um, you know, they still suck. You know
00:45:07.120
what I'm saying? You're still in 11 place, bro. Yeah. But like, dude, you know, you look at a Disney
00:45:11.380
with the worst performing stock in, in a stock exchange over the last 24 months. And why? Well,
00:45:17.380
because they're pushing shit that most people don't agree with. Okay. Hold on.
00:45:21.260
You're looking at Netflix, Netflix fucking got hammered. And they finally came around and said,
00:45:26.620
you know what? We're ridding our company of this sort of culture. And now they're starting to put
00:45:31.280
out shit already like this soon. That is pretty much patriotic. Like they put out, I've seen some
00:45:37.060
of their new shit. I'm like, man, that's pretty cool. By the way, if you haven't watched the gray man
00:45:40.620
movie, it's pretty good. Um, the gray man, just going to throw that in there. It's fucking good.
00:45:44.800
Um, but you look at, uh, you know, you look at, I mean, what else, what other,
00:45:50.340
there's so many data points there's, there's, uh, there's company like the companies that are going
00:45:55.160
the wokest are the ones that are going the brokest. And so when you sit there and think
00:45:59.240
like, fuck dude, nobody thinks what I think you'd be surprised, dude. Because like, when you say,
00:46:04.500
like, when you say what you really think other people, like, dude, even people in my life who
00:46:09.120
I thought like totally disagree with me, like they've come around and they've been like, bro,
00:46:13.260
you know, I, I get what you're saying, you know, and that feels good, you know, but like, guys,
00:46:19.100
you have to understand you, you could come all the way. I'll give you a big hug. You know what I'm
00:46:23.040
saying? Like, uh, like, uh, like I'm not here to bite, you know, we have to get rid of this,
00:46:27.620
that you guys cannot be afraid to be patriotic because one of the biggest tenants of communism
00:46:34.040
is to get you ashamed of our identity as Americans. And that's why a lot of you guys
00:46:40.040
who, you know, I'm just going to speak real with you here. You know, when you go to post something
00:46:44.320
with the American flag or fly your flag, you hesitate just a little tiny bit. And you're
00:46:49.320
like, fuck, I know, you know, one of those liberals is going to get real mad at me or they're going to
00:46:53.260
say something and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Well, that hesitation in your heart to be a proud
00:46:57.480
American, that is communism. That is, it's infecting your heart. Okay. And you have to be aware of
00:47:03.640
these things because that's how it works. It doesn't work. Uh, you know, it doesn't,
00:47:09.000
they don't come in with guns blazing, bro. They come in a little bit at a time, a little bit of
00:47:13.160
time, a little bit of time, a little bit of time. And then all at once, it's like going out of
00:47:16.940
business. It's like, it's like bankruptcy. Okay. And we are approaching the all at once very rapidly.
00:47:24.340
And so I just think it's important for you guys to recognize that your own hesitation to speak out,
00:47:31.040
your own hesitation to be an advocate for freedom, your own hesitation. And by the way,
00:47:35.900
you think whatever you want, I, you don't have to agree with me, but you should think for yourself
00:47:41.280
and, and the hesitation for you to embrace our flag, embrace American culture and freedom
00:47:48.120
and tell the truth. That is all part of the plan. It's, it's designed to get you to self-censor,
00:47:54.180
you know, politically correct ideology. That's something that I've had a problem with for 20 years,
00:47:58.540
not because I'm rude, but because I recognize what it is. It's a way for them to install a value
00:48:05.360
system into society to where we are afraid to tell the truth. Because if we tell the truth and
00:48:10.920
it's not politically accepted, we get shamed, right? If we look at data and it's not along the
00:48:16.640
mainstream narrative where there's something wrong with us, we're an ist, we're one of the names.
00:48:21.320
And that's all part of the plan guys. And for us to truly take this back, we have to,
00:48:27.200
as I've been saying for a long time, we have to put people in positions of our government
00:48:34.020
that understand the idea of serving the people, not going there to make a trillion dollars. Okay.
00:48:41.700
For themselves. Yes. And, and to take that one step further, if you say, how do we do that?
00:48:48.200
Because the left and tyrants want you to focus on argument. They want you to focus on words. They
00:48:54.740
want you to focus on, on abstractions and ideas. Like you ask yourself, why is the transgender agenda
00:49:01.400
so important to them? One of the reasons it is, is because if they can get you to say that a man
00:49:07.400
isn't a man and a woman, isn't a woman, then what else can they get you to say? That's one of the
00:49:14.280
reasons why that is that particular agenda is so important to them. But the point is the leftists
00:49:19.520
want to focus on, and the elitists want to focus on argument. The way that you bring people together
00:49:24.620
is through action. And if you ask yourself, you know, one of the things we did at the mission
00:49:29.400
continues was we always worked with veterans in action. And the action was action to improve our
00:49:34.140
communities, right? If you think about what is it, if you really want to save a kid's life, make sure
00:49:39.700
that there's a third grader in your community who doesn't know how to read, make sure that they know
00:49:43.980
how to read by the end of third grade. Okay. Because a kid who's starting third grade and can't read
00:49:49.040
and finishes third grade and can't read is in real trouble. All right. But, but if, but people get
00:49:54.420
involved and you start working with that kid and you make sure that they can read by the end of third
00:49:58.220
grade, you might've saved that kid's life. Now, when you start doing real things, like making sure
00:50:04.100
that kids can read, making sure that kids have good mentors, making sure that people in your
00:50:08.620
community are safe, when you're doing real things, what you find is that all of the silly
00:50:14.340
differences, which the elitists want to spend all of their time talking about, they all melt away
00:50:19.040
because people are focused on doing real things. They're actually focused on action. When people are
00:50:24.540
taking action together, they recognize each other's strengths in order to help them to accomplish
00:50:30.280
the mission. And that's why you need to have leaders who are mission focused and action focused.
00:50:35.620
And if you really care about people and you bring people together, you bring a community of people
00:50:40.080
together to raise money for a charity, to help kids to read, to help veterans, you know, beat
00:50:45.040
homelessness. All of these things are really hard, but when people come together and they take action,
00:50:50.980
then people see each other's strengths. Elitists want to always talk about whether it's critical race
00:50:56.580
theory or the transgender agenda. They're trying to use argument to divide people. What we have to do
00:51:01.940
as real patriots is use, use action to unite people. So what do you think like moving forward?
00:51:08.100
Cause dude, we're going to win this primal. Yeah, man. All right. We're going to win it. Yeah.
00:51:12.200
What do you think moving forward from now until November? Because I personally believe that they
00:51:18.720
are going to try and make us feel the hurt as bad as possible. You know, the, the world economic forum,
00:51:25.920
their, their, their slogan, I was going to say this a minute ago when you were talking, but
00:51:30.500
you know, when you said they want us in despair, well, it's so funny because their slogan is
00:51:34.960
out of chaos comes order. Okay. And so what you guys have to realize the plan for them,
00:51:41.660
and whether you believe me now, or you believe me in two years from now, this is what they're
00:51:45.660
trying to do. They're trying to get us so desperate, so frustrated, so angry, and then they want
00:51:53.040
to come in and present a new solution. We're going to fix this. And this is what it is. And people are
00:51:58.620
to be in such chaos and pain and disruption and despair that they will willingly accept something
00:52:03.820
that is less than what they would have accepted in 2018. 100%. So, you know, there is a reason for
00:52:10.840
this chaos. There's a reason that you're paying what you pay to live right now, whether it be gas,
00:52:16.320
groceries, power, fucking everything, right? There's a reason that your money's worth 10% less
00:52:22.140
than it was a year ago, right? These things are designed intentionally. And if you guys really
00:52:28.180
sit down and accept that as reality, it's going to make you really fucking mad. Okay. And the solution,
00:52:34.620
by the way, and that's nonpartisan, like we all live here, bro. Like this is not about like,
00:52:40.000
oh, the right winning or the left winning. This is about the people winning. And when you come to
00:52:45.620
that realization, you have to understand that the only solution that we can, uh, that we have besides
00:52:51.740
taking up arms, which is, you know, not something that I feel that we're in a place to do, um, at
00:52:57.660
this moment, but is to use the system that was created for us in the proper way. And there's a
00:53:04.400
reason why they don't teach us in school, how to properly be educated or engaged in the political
00:53:10.060
system. There's a reason that culture has lost the idea of political service as a duty of successful,
00:53:18.760
exceptional humans. Okay. This is a man who's a Navy SEAL. He's a Rhodes Scholar. He's PhD. He's
00:53:25.720
handsome. Yeah. He's, he's not bad looking. Thank you. You know what I'm saying? But, but more than
00:53:30.660
anything, this is a man that cares. Okay. And he cares about his community. He cares about what's
00:53:37.140
going on. Um, and by the way, what school is your degree from? Uh, Oxford. Oh, it's from Oxford.
00:53:42.900
Yeah. Kind of a, it's not like it's like local community school. You know what I'm saying? So
00:53:47.620
we have this man that could be successful in literally any area of life that he chooses,
00:53:53.220
who is willing to go there and fight for us. And these are the people, first of all, yes,
00:53:59.460
you need to go out and vote on August 2nd, if you live in Missouri, but wherever you are,
00:54:04.240
whatever state you are in, you have to do your due diligence to understand who is part of the
00:54:10.780
uniparty, who is part of the establishment. And a great way to look at that is to see who they're
00:54:16.420
attacking the most because who they attack the most. If you looked at, uh, what was the girl's
00:54:22.540
name up in, uh, the woman's name up in Pennsylvania, Barnett was internet, Kathy Barnett. Yeah, bro.
00:54:28.280
She was going to take it to Dr. Oz. She would have won. They went for three days on Fox news on
00:54:33.620
Hannity. They ran a hit piece after hit piece after hit piece for most of the hour to pull this out for
00:54:39.080
Dr. Oz. What does Dr. Oz do? The minute he's, he wins, he dumps Trump and he says, I'm not with
00:54:44.340
that anymore. That's a, that's a typical establishment, like camo move. And that's
00:54:49.900
what these people do. And by the way, who called that out? Uh, what was the guy's name? I think
00:54:54.000
his name is DJ DJ was the first guy that called out that that was a Trojan horse. Um, but we have to
00:55:01.940
do our, we can't just go in and say, all right, all the Republicans, because it's not all the
00:55:06.320
Republicans are good. And by the way, that also means there's some reasonable Democrats to consider
00:55:11.280
as well. I don't know who the fuck they are, but I'm sure they're out there. These are people who
00:55:15.460
have good hearts. These are people who want to change people. Maybe their political ideology is a
00:55:19.900
little bit different than what mine would be, but I'm cool with that. As long as they're real people
00:55:23.840
that are trying to serve, you know what I'm saying? We, we as Americans will never have, and we don't
00:55:29.640
want a government that is run by completely one side of the, because that creates tyranny,
00:55:35.720
right? That creates oppression. So we need people that disagree with us in the, in the government to
00:55:41.900
keep the balance. But what we, but what we need those people to be is not people that go there to
00:55:46.780
get rich or, or, or to exact power or for status. We need people who are going to serve. And that's what
00:55:54.360
I love about Eric. That's something that I know this man. I put my name on this man. I've seen this
00:56:00.200
man fight. I've seen what he's about. I spent time with him personal situation. Uh, you know,
00:56:05.300
this, this, this is a real dude. And like, whatever it is that you think we need, I can promise you
00:56:11.520
it's going to come from real people representing us, not these people who are these plastic people
00:56:17.100
who look at us. And there there's both of them, Republicans and Democrats who look at us like
00:56:22.160
peasantry. You know, we're not, we're, we're just something that exists outside of their world
00:56:26.700
that they have to worry about when we really need them to understand that we are the fucking world
00:56:31.180
and we need to be taken care of. And right now what's happening in America is abusive.
00:56:36.140
It's wrong. None of us should be living in this high state of anxiety and with this division and
00:56:41.340
this hate and this frustration that is now what this country is about. And the fact that it's
00:56:45.200
intentionally put upon us should piss all of you off, whether you agree with my positions or not,
00:56:51.080
because it's not right, bro. We should be living our life in America. We should all
00:56:55.240
have equal opportunities and work to create equal opportunities. We should all be free of this
00:56:59.880
pressure in this division to pursue excellence and to pursue happiness in this country. That's
00:57:05.500
what this country is about. And right now we're not allowed to even have it because every fucking
00:57:10.240
thing that we look at is some sort of negativity or some sort of crisis or some sort of world ending
00:57:15.980
shit. When in reality, it's all just to drive up anxiety and despair. And that's not okay, guys.
00:57:23.180
It doesn't matter if you agree with me. I know there's a lot of people out there that don't
00:57:26.440
like me. I know there's a lot of people out there that think I got a big mouth and then fucking
00:57:30.400
whatever, bro. I care about those people too. You know what I'm saying? Like, dude, you could not
00:57:35.180
like me and I still want the best for you. And these are the kind, like, we have to adopt that
00:57:41.360
mentality, you know, not this divisive fucking attack shit. I refuse to play in it, dude. It's
00:57:46.740
not something I'm going to play in. No, look, and it is that compassion, like, for your fellow
00:57:53.040
Americans and your willingness to take action on their behalf, which has always made the United
00:57:58.420
States great from our very founding until today. And let's also recognize, despite everything that
00:58:05.500
they've done to the United States of America, all of the attacks, right, the attacks on our economy,
00:58:11.600
on independence, on our safety, on our liberty, despite all of those things, the American people
00:58:18.520
still have more courage, have more resilience, have more strength, have more compassion, I believe,
00:58:26.320
than any other people on the face of the planet. And if we are willing to step forward in this moment,
00:58:33.080
we can not only win our country back, but in fact, and this is the hopeful part, we can make our
00:58:38.880
country better than it's ever been. Ever. Because when you look also, to use DJ, use the personal
00:58:44.660
analogy, it's true in your own life, right? You think about the pain that you went through. You think
00:58:49.860
about the hardest time in your life. What happened on the other side of that? If you made the right
00:58:54.120
choices, you became wiser. You think about the suffering in your own life. What happened? It
00:58:59.700
was hard. It was painful. It was difficult. You had moments of doubt. You had moments of despair.
00:59:03.740
And you know what? On the other side, you became stronger. You think about those moments of tremendous
00:59:07.760
fear and hardship. And you know what happens? You confronted that fear. You became more courageous.
00:59:12.040
The same is true for a nation. We are facing now a greater crisis than certainly we've ever have in
00:59:17.620
my lifetime. I mean, I was in SEAL team training when 9-11 happened. The 9-11 crisis was nothing like
00:59:23.080
what we're facing today. This is the biggest crisis we've ever faced. And we can take all of this pain,
00:59:28.520
all of the suffering, all of the fear, all of the despair, all of the hardship, and we can become
00:59:32.440
a better country than we've ever been. All of us together, we can have a true revival of the notion
00:59:38.960
of citizenship. And that's what I'm here for. I'm here for the revival. I'm here for the future.
00:59:43.580
I'm here for the idea that every single person who's listening to this podcast can become more
00:59:49.100
personally excellent. And by you making yourself more excellent and encouraging people around you
00:59:55.880
to do so, we're going to become a stronger, more prosperous, more beautiful, more compassionate
01:00:01.660
nation. And more proud. And more proud, man. A hundred percent. When I was growing up, bro,
01:00:06.160
I love, listen, this is America, dude. Yes. We should be proud to be here. I am damn proud to be in
01:00:12.240
America. Yes. And I know there's a lot of things wrong right now. I know there's a lot of things that
01:00:15.760
are frustrating. I know there's a lot of things that are aggravating. Um, but I'm tired of the
01:00:20.200
fighting. Yes. I'm tired of the aggravation. I'm tired of the culture of hate and we have to bring
01:00:25.620
unity. We have to bring peace. We have to bring the ability for the individual to succeed. And right
01:00:31.540
now they're taking that from you. Yeah. They're taking that from me. They're taking that from all
01:00:35.660
of us and we have to stop it. And the only way that we can stop it guys is by engaging, by being proud
01:00:41.700
and patriotic, by resisting the shit that we know isn't true at every point that it's spoken.
01:00:47.940
And, um, we got to come together and, and bro, I just like, you know, I want to wrap this up by
01:00:53.720
saying, dude, win or lose, bro. I'm damn fucking proud of you. Thanks brother. Yeah. For real. And,
01:00:59.000
uh, and, and that goes for life. You know, I always have your back. I, I, I hope you guys understand
01:01:04.460
how much I value this man. And I hope that resonates with you. Um, he's one of the only guys I talk to
01:01:09.960
when I'm having problems and, and, and bro, I just, I just really appreciate you on a personal
01:01:14.340
level, dude. Um, and I have a tremendous amount of tremendous amount of admiration, respect for
01:01:20.540
what I've seen you go through to get to this. You're a real fighter. You're a real guy. And,
01:01:24.880
uh, I hope people see that. Thanks brother. Appreciate you. DJ, you too, man. Thank you guys,
01:01:28.980
guys. That's the show. Okay. I can't tell you how much more I believe in Eric Reitens. All right.
01:01:35.800
Um, make it a party, dude, get your friends together. Not everybody thinks it's important
01:01:40.480
to vote in the primary and it, these things rely on us to make happen. So have the conversations
01:01:47.060
this week. Don't be afraid to call your friends. Don't be afraid to go together and vote for Eric
01:01:52.120
Reitens at Tuesday at the polls. Okay. These are the things that we have to do and have to get
01:01:57.100
engaged in. If we're going to restore a true united freedom in this country, it's very important,
01:02:01.800
not just for us now, because we don't want to live in this crazy despair, uh, high stress
01:02:06.880
environment divided. We don't want any of that stuff, but for the future, because how much worse
01:02:12.540
is it going to get if we don't stop it now? So guys, August 2nd, Eric Reitens, make it happen.
01:02:20.100
We're sleeping on the floor. Now my jewelry box froze. Fuck a pole, fuck a stove, counted millions
01:02:26.260
in the code. Bad bitch, booted, swole. Got her on bankroll. Can't fold, doesn't know. Headshot,
