00:00:32.000And we have an explosive new report out of South Lake, Texas, where lo and behold, the feds are coming down, breathing down the necks of parents that just took back their school boards.
00:00:42.000We have that in an exclusive interview with United Airlines pilots that are now, because of that company's mandate, not getting paid, not getting insurance.
00:01:22.000We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:02:26.000And now they are going to tell us their story about their experience with these vax mandates that have been spreading across the country.
00:02:34.000There is news today that OSHA has now, at least temporarily, sidelined this plan of vax mandates pending circuit court judgments that have fully put a stop to it, at least for the time being.
00:02:46.000So we're going to keep monitoring that.
00:02:48.000Dave Morgan, thank you so much for joining us.
00:02:50.000Captain Sherry Walker, thank you so much for joining us.
00:02:53.000Tell us a little bit about what you guys have been going through.
00:02:56.000I've got some tape, by the way, that we can play at some point in the segment of the CEO of United.
00:04:20.000And then suddenly on the back side of this, here comes this vaccine mandate.
00:04:25.000And those of us who pressed on and made the wheels turn, the airplanes fly, the people who were able to fly for point A to we were there to get them there.
00:04:39.000And all of a sudden, Scott Kirby says, we're not safe anymore.
00:05:19.000I mean, it's, I mean, what are they going to do when their breadwinner of the family is unable to collect a paycheck for the company he's served for 23 years?
00:05:36.000I see on your website here that there's a religious liberty aspect to what you guys are doing, you know, religious exemptions, things like that.
00:05:44.000Talk us through what you guys are working on.
00:05:46.000Who's part of this group and how did it come to be?
00:05:50.000Yes, I am a co-founder along with Laura Cox of Airline Employees for Health Freedom.
00:05:55.000We're approximately or approaching 4,000 members across the airline industry.
00:06:00.000Yes, we have members from Hawaiian Airlines.
00:06:03.000We have members from Southwest Airlines, but we've actually taken it across the transportation industry with now members from Amtrak and the trucking industry as well.
00:06:13.000So on August 6th, when our CEO announced the vaccine mandate, we realized that it was his right.
00:06:22.000A business has a right to set its work rules.
00:06:24.000However, they are obligated under Title VII to follow the established laws.
00:06:30.000So throughout the process, which was discriminatory and retaliatory, and Dave's story kind of tells us a lot about it.
00:06:38.000We grew very quickly into an organization to help people reach out to the company, get their religious exemptions and medical ADA exemptions in place.
00:06:50.000The unfortunate part is, as you'll show in your video, it appears that the decks were stacked against us.
00:06:56.000And as deadlines came and went, as Dave said, on the 27th, we all flew airplanes.
00:07:01.000On the 28th of September, we were all unsafe to fly airplanes because we didn't have a jab.
00:07:06.000So together, the 2,000 United employees that are in our organization started a class action lawsuit against our employer to force them to follow Title VII.
00:07:18.000We do not believe that unpaid, indefinite leave is a reasonable accommodation.
00:07:23.000We believe that the models like Delta Airlines doing their testing and others would be more than appropriate.
00:07:30.000And unfortunately, we're worried about how this is going to play out in this busy travel season.
00:07:52.000There's been a massive amount of delays.
00:07:54.000I mean, so now all of a sudden, despite all of those challenges, United Airlines is going to double down and they're going to say, you guys are no longer fit to fly 787 International 767 as you do, Sherry.
00:08:05.000So, you know, and if it's okay, I mean, I don't want to interrupt your story because it's important to hear directly from you guys, but I want to play a couple pieces of sound here.
00:08:33.000It says, I've been told by management pilot that pilots who get the approval to use the wrap for medical or religious reasons to avoid the COVID vaccine, they would still be on the United seniority list.
00:08:46.000However, they will stay home and not be paid.
00:08:49.000Is this really how United plans on handling this very sensitive issue?
00:09:18.000Although I don't think that's the case.
00:09:20.000By the way, there are going to be very few people that get through the medical and religious exemption.
00:09:25.000There's some pretty strict rules about that.
00:09:28.000So I would encourage any pilot that's decided they all of a sudden, or any employee that's all of a sudden decided I'm really religious and I'm going to say I'm going to get, you know, you're putting your job on the line.
00:09:40.000You better be very careful about that.
00:09:42.000So Sherry, Dave, did some pilots suddenly find religion or is that just the most offensive thing I've ever heard?
00:09:50.000Let me preface that video with the fact that the entire video was played in the preliminary injunction hearing, 23 minutes of audio.
00:09:59.000And it appeared that our Your Honor, Judge Pittman, wasn't as, didn't take kindly to those words as well.
00:10:07.000So yes, it appears that while Scott Kirby has couched his claims on this vaccine mandate in safety, there perhaps might be some other underlying reasons.
00:10:20.000And in fact, it was pointed out in the judge's ruling that United's presentation was basically pretextual.
00:10:27.000In other words, it was hidden in safety, but it really was a marketing ploy.
00:10:30.000So the fact that our boss said upfront before the vaccine mandate, reasonable accommodation deadline, that he was not going to honor majority of our religious beliefs and our medical issues.
00:11:55.000I want to open this up to both of you.
00:11:56.000So Biden is on the record publicly stating that United went from 59% of their employees to 99% of their employees getting vaccinated in two months after implementing the requirement.
00:12:08.000So are you guys part of the 1% or is this complete hogwash?
00:12:13.000Well, actually, there was about 40% of the company that was unvaccinated at the time of the mandate.
00:12:19.000Now, through coercion, strong arming, basic threatening.
00:12:24.000Yeah, we've had a lot of folks acquiesce.
00:12:26.000Unfortunately, we've had a lot of folks acquiesce that have also found themselves harmed.
00:12:31.000And we could go on for hours about stories of people who cannot get the vaccine, but yet the company threatened their job.
00:12:39.000So the phones are ringing off the hook trying to help people.
00:12:42.000You're talking about adverse events from the COVID vaccine, which is absolutely true.
00:12:47.000I want to make sure people know how to get in touch with you and get behind your cause.
00:12:51.000But, you know, have people at United not read the case of Gibraltar that has 100% vaccination rate and they are experiencing a massive spike in COVID cases, 100% vaccination rate.
00:13:05.000And now you got the New Mexico governor who's saying that you're not fully vaccinated unless you have three shots.
00:13:10.000So I don't know what the end game for these folks are, but they're certainly not paying attention to the science.
00:13:15.000And I think it's really disappointing that a company like United would be putting good employees that have dedicated decades of their lives to that company through such a traumatic experience.
00:13:26.000Look, everyone out there has been asking me, Charlie, how do I get more pillows?
00:13:38.000And part of them being canceled, they want to give you the lowest price yet.
00:13:42.000So you can get the lowest price in the history of MyPillow for their classic standard MyPillow regularly, $69.98, now only $19.98 with the promo code.
00:13:52.000They also have Queen size, regularly $79.98 and $24.98 with a promo code or king size, usually $89.98, only $29.98 with your promo code.
00:15:45.000Cave Creek in Buffalo Chip, Arizona, Cave Creek, Arizona at the Buffalo Chip.
00:15:50.000And how can people get involved in that fundraiser?
00:15:53.000And if they don't live here, how can they get behind you guys?
00:15:55.000If you don't live here, go to AEthnumber4HF.org and contribute to our funds.
00:16:06.000Our fight, 100% of the funds goes to our legal fees.
00:16:11.000We are a C4, a 501 C4, so no contributions are tax deductible, but every penny counts.
00:16:19.000And we are unemployed people going out of pocket to pay for our own legal fight in federal court against a giant who's got a whole floor of staffed attorneys.
00:16:30.000Now, if you're local, I invite you to come out and join us in Cave Creek, Arizona.
00:16:36.000It's about 30 minutes north of the Phoenix airport.
00:16:39.000Saturday, the 20th, one to five, we have a growing list of distinguished speakers.
00:16:44.000And the top of that list is Dr. Cordy Williams.
00:16:47.000He's running for U.S. Senate out of California, and he is flying in just for this event.
00:16:53.000Yeah, I hope he's choosing his airlines wisely.
00:16:55.000You know, that's something that occurs to me here, Sherry.
00:16:58.000We've got a large national audience, large podcast audience, one of the top shows in the country.
00:17:18.000Well, the key thing here is our case will be a precedent setting.
00:17:22.000So right now, started in the fifth and they moved it to the sixth based on the lottery.
00:17:27.000The OSHA mandate, which is a constitutional question that was going to force Southwest and all the rest of the airlines to have to implement this mandate, has been put on pause.
00:17:42.000Now, our employer has chosen to hold the line, so to speak, or take this foolishly to destroy the lives of some of its most experienced and valued workers.
00:17:54.000We can get into the years and years of experience.
00:17:57.000I mean, at some point, when you're looking at a 74-year-old flight attendant who's 50 years at the company and she's no longer valued because of her faith, that becomes criminal.
00:18:10.000I mean, I know I keep saying it, but the fact that he would say, oh, they found religion just recently, I mean, it's just preposterous and it's so offensive to so many people that have faith and sincerely held beliefs and don't want to be told what they do with their body.
00:18:21.000I mean, bodily autonomy should be a core foundational principle of this country.
00:18:26.000So guys, we only have 30 seconds left.
00:18:28.000I want, Sherry, can you repeat the website?
00:18:31.000Where can people go to support you guys?
00:19:57.000Federal investigators, this is per NBC News, launched civil rights probe into South Lake, Texas schools.
00:20:02.000Now, you will remember that South Lake became one of the hotbeds in this CRT school board battle that has been raging across the country with concerned parents.
00:20:12.000Now, yesterday, Charlie did an amazing job covering Memo Gate, as we are thus dubbing it, where it has now become clear that despite Merrick Garland's claims that there was no FBI surveilling of parents, that is indeed the case.
00:20:48.000So Jim Jordan's been out front on Memo Gate.
00:20:51.000Now we find out that there's something brewing, and I don't love the direction.
00:20:59.000There's two simultaneous concurrent streams that are running counter to what we all thought we learned after Virginia, after even New Jersey was too close to call on election night, after Republicans swept races all across the country, even in Seattle.
00:21:19.000What were the messages that we thought we learned?
00:21:22.000Well, that CRT is dumb and that parents don't like it and that it's a losing issue for Democrats.
00:21:28.000And that Republicans get rewarded when they fight things like CRT, when they don't take a neutral stance in the public square, but fight it with everything they've got.
00:21:38.000And they say, listen, I'm going to exercise state power and not cop out on some, you know, we believe in small government, which we do, but these are not mutually exclusive things.
00:21:50.000The government, as constituted in the United States of America, is designed fundamentally to protect the rights of its citizens and to protect the rights of parents.
00:22:02.000And what conservatives too often do is they hide behind that as an excuse to do nothing, to fight for nothing, to stand for nothing, and to be neutral.
00:22:13.000Now, this report out of NBC, and I'm going to circle back to that.
00:23:17.000I hope he follows through on banning CRT, but to move back on a mask mandate and vax mandates for our children and for the rest of society, he's not going to impose that on local governments.
00:23:36.000Where on the one hand, we get rewarded for doing something right and courageous and strong and fighting back with some teeth and some willpower.
00:23:44.000And then, on the very next move, after getting rewarded and told you're on the right track, he steps back and he says, I'm not going to impose that locally.
00:23:58.000No matter what the government says, the holidays are coming, and I hope you'll be spending it with friends and family.
00:24:03.000It's never too late to start gift shopping for the holidays, especially because today you could save big on a gift they'll use every day, Raycon wireless earbuds.
00:25:37.000A little bit of back and forth, even in the header in the subhead.
00:25:42.000They called it a racist dog whistle and a lie, but those messages haven't helped Democrats tamp down on the uproar Republicans are fueling over critical race theory, now a misused catch-all term for teaching on race and diversity in K through 12 schools that's firing up protests at school board meetings around the country.
00:26:00.000In Virginia, Republican governor-elect Glenn Young exploited the term.
00:26:04.000Interesting word choice, exploited, exploited the term and pledged to ban it in classrooms on his first day as governor.
00:26:12.000And even though critical race theory, an academic approach to examining racial bias, that's very nice.
00:26:18.000An academic approach to, it's white racism.
00:26:21.000It's anti-white racism, pure and simple.
00:26:52.000It's not rooted in any type of faith, tradition that is eternal or long lasting, that has tradition behind it.
00:27:02.000It's whatever they think justice is that day.
00:27:04.000But they'll use the term, and then you are the person that they're going to contend with to get the justice that they deserve.
00:27:12.000You conservative, you Republican, you racist parents all across the nation.
00:27:20.000So they go and say that it's just CRT is just examining our history of racial bias and as it was most often taught in law schools.
00:27:27.000Well, that was true until George Floyd and Floyd Apalooza.
00:27:33.000Democrat strategists say the party should hit back harder against divisive GOP claims while not losing sight of the priority of voters and the economy.
00:27:41.000Well, okay, at least they want to talk about the economy that they're running into the ground.
00:27:44.000On a political level, it's a real threat that is allowing Republicans to claw back the inroads the Democrats have made in the suburbs over the last couple of election cycles, said Jim Manley, a longtime aide to former Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid.
00:27:57.000Democrats haven't yet pushed back on this issue enough.
00:28:00.000But the good news is the party's response is effective.
00:28:03.000They just need to make the case relentlessly.
00:28:06.000Voters run from the Republicans when Democrats peel back the onion on what these claims really mean.
00:28:11.000And he basically goes on to say that the truth is on our side, that we're just examining the racial history of America.
00:28:19.000And by the way, I hope they double down.
00:28:22.000I hope they triple down on this awful, terrible, no-good idea, because it's what fueled these Republican gains all across the country, these conservative gains all across the country.
00:28:48.000Nothing to see here folks, and all across the nation Republicans recalled communist school board members, because that's basically what they are cultural Marxist, socialist sympathizers and they put conservatives in place.
00:29:01.000This was an issue that had been left alone by conservatives for far too long, and meanwhile the left insidiously creeped in and started controlling our kids' education.
00:29:10.000This is what we see in Scottsdale Arizona, where a 24 year old, childless basement dwelling miscreant compiles a dossier about parents that were concerned about what the schools were teaching their children in Scottsdale, no kids no, nothing.
00:29:24.000Just wanted to run for any office, total socialist.
00:29:27.000So in South Lake, Texas and this is the full circle moment they did something about it.
00:29:33.000Friend of the show, Dana Lash, has been out front on this in South Lake.
00:29:37.000She's a resident of South Lake, she was part of fighting back and they made incredible gains.
00:29:45.000MSNBC NBC, the kings and queens of the of the Kenosha Hearing, as it were, today that have now been banned from the courthouse.
00:29:55.000Well, they have a new report out of South Lake, the U.S. Education Department's civil rights enforcement arm.
00:30:00.000And, by the way, just a small note, whenever you give away your power to these federal bureaucracies that actually have the rule of law and the force of law behind them, which happened after the 60s, this is what you get.
00:30:11.000The people of Southlake stood up, it took back their power and now the FED is coming in, the enforcement arm of the Civil Rights Division.
00:30:20.000The Department official for civil rights notified the suburban school districts officials last week that it had opened three investigations into complaints about discrimination against students based on their race, gender and gender and national origin.
00:30:31.000The agency declined to provide details on the allegation and doesn't comment on pending investigations.
00:30:37.000The report goes on to say that the The fact that these investigations have been launched basically means they have really good reason to believe that they're going to take action.
00:30:47.000Now, these investigations can take quite a long time.
00:30:51.000They can take many, many months, even years.
00:30:56.000So, I'm going to play the cut that just kind of plays this all, tells you it lays the story out, cut 76, play cut 76.
00:31:05.000In South Lake, Texas, the U.S. Department of Education has launched three civil rights investigations at the Carroll School District over unspecified allegations of discrimination based on race, nationality, and gender.
00:31:16.000Volunteers spent almost two years developing a school diversity plan, but some parents pushed back, launching a lawsuit that effectively killed the plan.
00:31:24.000There will be no home for this toxic ideology here in South Lake.
00:31:28.000So the federal investigations come three years after leaders in Carroll's school system, 30 miles northwest of Dallas, promised and ultimately failed to make these sweeping changes to address racism in the district following the release of a video of a white high school student chanting the N-word.
00:32:10.000Just like the Democrat strategists told us they were going to do in the pages of Business Insider, they said, we're going to push back twice as hard.
00:32:17.000We're going to double down because this is just racial bias in our country.
00:32:21.000Folks, we have not seen the last of the CRT battles in this country.
00:32:24.000We have only seen the beginning because these people, this is their religion.
00:32:29.000This is where they get their purpose and value and meaning out of life is to fight the man and fight for justice, whatever that is today.
00:32:38.000And it's coming for Southlake and many more places around the country.
00:32:44.000Thanks so much for listening, everybody.
