00:03:15.160
well personally i'm blessed uh knowing that the good lord is in charge but i'm pretty friggin angry
00:03:22.080
right now about the way the president is destroying this country and it's time to take our country back
00:03:26.200
it's it's it's devastating what he's doing and uh we're trying to push back every day every day
00:03:31.000
that uh we can i tell you chip it is we are seeing a managed decline and destruction of our nation there
00:03:40.000
is no way i mean i don't know if you saw the president's speech yesterday he he openly said look
00:03:46.940
i'm a capitalist but it's just not working and we're gonna have to change it was a stunning stunning
00:03:55.320
speech and they're putting it in every day it's something new i mean it's bad enough the border
00:04:02.040
but now i just found out they're all being moved into purple states gee i wonder why
00:04:06.920
no it's exactly right i mean look they don't even beat around the bush anymore and and they and they
00:04:14.460
act incredulous when you you look at them you know cock-eyed uh when they say the things they're saying
00:04:20.180
i mean look let's just look at the scoreboard really quickly uh you've obviously been on top of
00:04:24.460
trying to help clean up the mess and mess isn't even the right word about what they did to us in
00:04:29.840
afghanistan and what they did to our allies and what they're doing to human beings uh while they
00:04:35.040
they've got you know afghans here in this country 60 000 plus who weren't in the sib program but then
00:04:42.160
they left uh americans and they left sibs behind to get tortured while turning over assets to our
00:04:48.200
enemies meanwhile at our border cartels are empowered china's actually empowered both of
00:04:53.600
them moving dangerous fentanyl up through our southern border killing americans while we've got
00:04:58.500
now 10 000 haitians in del rio thousands at a facility down in mcallen all while ranchers are
00:05:04.860
getting their fences cut livestock breaking out little girls getting raped and abused being put into
00:05:10.080
the sex trafficking trade and they want to pat themselves on the back for being compassionate
00:05:14.860
while they destroy our economy pump trillion dollars into it enrich the rich and the large
00:05:20.460
corporations the expense of small businesses and then they say we need more programs to help all
00:05:25.740
the people that they're screwing with their terrible policies in the meantime they're you know going
00:05:31.360
around and and their woke diversity brigade uh destroying america and teaching uh our children that
00:05:37.760
america is evil and that's just the tip of the iceberg right i mean let's talk about the vaccine let's
00:05:43.100
talk about the vaccine mandates let's talk about the fact that they're now jamming us on monoclonal
00:05:47.520
antibodies and now telling texas and florida we can't get medicine to help save and and and you know
00:05:53.800
provide therapies for our people oh it's it when we're at the point right now where the people of
00:06:00.000
texas people of florida we have to start saying no it's now time for us to take over secure our border
00:06:06.840
and figure out how we're going to care for our own citizenry because this president is that
00:06:10.600
uh not just odd directly an assault on our people of texas so you are exactly right on that i mean
00:06:17.920
when i saw that he was holding back mex when he was holding back medicine i thought oh my gosh
00:06:22.880
this is these people you keep going down this road they'll put you in camps you disagree with them
00:06:30.280
they'll put you in camp they're they're actually been saying they're not gonna treat we shouldn't
00:06:35.300
treat these people who haven't you know toed the line and done exactly what we say i have the
00:06:39.960
antibodies i had a bad case of covid i have the antibodies that's much better than your stupid
00:06:45.900
vaccine if you haven't had it you're old you're in the risk you make the decision if you want it it
00:06:53.420
works great but they are going they are doing everything they can to uh just destroy us so let me
00:07:02.480
ask you chip this is how badly the republicans have damaged themselves you have at least half the
00:07:10.860
country going this is this is not even america what what is happening and the republicans should be
00:07:18.980
booming right now but i don't i don't know what any i know what people like you were doing i know
00:07:25.200
individuals but i don't know what the gop even stands for where are they
00:07:29.540
well i think it's a great question uh i think unfortunately there are far too many of my
00:07:34.780
republican colleagues who view this simply through the lens of taking power back and i i do not there
00:07:41.340
is no purpose to this back and forth ping pong game of who gets in power while we're allowing our republic
00:07:47.240
to slide off the edge of the cliff into oblivion so that our kids and grandkids won't be able to live
00:07:52.620
with the blessings of liberty enough and i think republicans need to be held to account
00:07:57.380
we need a strong texas strong states we need to put republicans in a box to tell them exactly what
00:08:04.180
they're going to do in january 2023 there should be no gray area we the people need to demand that
00:08:10.720
i'm a citizen too i happen to be a member of congress i need to be held accountable we all need to be we
00:08:16.500
need to be told what to do very specifically and thirdly wait wait i want to make sure you people
00:08:21.900
understand what you say that not the people need to be told what to do but the politicians
00:08:26.760
and the gop needs to be told what to do yeah yeah yeah i'm sorry but that wasn't clear we i we meaning
00:08:34.120
we congress members of congress need to be told what to do by the people we work for you we work for the
00:08:41.380
people uh and and i'm a citizen too and and i want republicans to stand up and fight and right now
00:08:48.820
there are some of us and and and a strong shout out some of my freedom carcass brother and a handful
00:08:53.980
of senators but enough you know we've got we got a few governors speaking out but every republican
00:08:59.880
ought to be hair on fire angry about the list of things i rattled off a minute ago
00:09:05.100
uh and more but afghanistan the border the vaccine shutting down businesses stepping over our rights
00:09:12.980
uh you know the woke diversity stuff teaching people america's evil endangering us on the world
00:09:18.380
stage collapsing collapsing our dollar with this insanity of spending and driving inflation through
00:09:27.680
the roof and denying it and lying to us about all of these things to our face these sick twisted
00:09:35.080
individuals in a judiciary committee this week referred to human beings as uh human infrastructure
00:09:41.900
human infrastructure in a committee when they were talking about people coming across our border
00:09:48.120
they view human beings as political chattel that's what you've got in the democratic party today
00:09:54.120
and we've got it we got to recognize that american airlines i don't know if you saw the video clip
00:09:59.660
yesterday i did of america with a little two-year-old kid crying and had asthma then the police were
00:10:04.460
waiting for the family like it enough american airlines let me be very clear you better hope i
00:10:11.320
don't win and that we don't have the majority because when we're in the majority i'm coming and
00:10:16.060
knocking on your door you explain why you're sticking it to your customers you explain why you're meddling
00:10:21.620
with the people of texas and our election laws when you were getting all woke and you explain how you
00:10:27.600
can treat a two-year-old like that get out of your corporate diversity boards and recognize that you
00:10:34.500
you serve the people and now i want you to know whether or not you're gonna and think about whether
00:10:39.520
you're gonna pay back the billions the taxpayers gave you during covet i'm tired of this and we need
00:10:45.400
to actually hold these corporate overlords accountable all right chip you are you are singing from the
00:10:52.900
hymnal that i have just love to hear um hopefully you can rally enough people around that in congress
00:11:00.680
to grow a freaking spine let me ask you this um the governor of texas has just gone to farmers and said
00:11:09.580
we texas will build a wall but we need your permission to build it on your private property
00:11:16.300
who's with me and it's my understanding that the ranchers down at the border are like yes please
00:11:23.200
we'll give you that right well no there's no look i i went down with senator cruz down to uvalde we went
00:11:29.920
down to laredo we went down to roma we met with a large number of ranchers uh last week and uh i mean
00:11:35.760
to a t let me just say two things from for your listeners to know these human beings these people
00:11:41.240
who are having their ranches overrun fences cut livestock getting removed having their family members
00:11:45.960
endangered they're scared because they have uh you know migrants that they don't know they've never
00:11:50.800
met with you know cartel influences crossing their their ranches that have been their families for
00:11:54.720
years and their number one concern are the dead migrants that they find on their ranch or the
00:11:59.960
dehydrated dying migrants they find on the ranch because these are good people they're calling 9-1-1
00:12:05.660
and they're trying to help these migrants meanwhile they're endangered they're losing money
00:12:10.320
their their counties are getting crushed and they know what that they're in danger so of
00:12:15.820
course they want a wall of course they're willing to work with the governor to put up whatever
00:12:19.780
they can do to try to save their way of life while this federal government is literally abandoning
00:12:25.040
its constitutional duty to enforce faithfully execute the laws of the united states it's not
00:12:29.760
just impeachable what biden is doing it's so wrong we're going to have to take matters in our
00:12:35.540
hands as texans to step in and fill the void back in 2008 when i said every state needs to get
00:12:41.700
their gold back from the fed and keep it in their state i was called a madman rick perry was i think
00:12:47.940
the only governor that did it um chip can you have somebody in your office just reach out um and and
00:12:54.440
verify for me that we do have all of our gold back and and we did put it in our own vaults here in
00:13:00.760
texas uh we'll get back in touch with you and we'll find run that to ground i remember i mean of course you
00:13:05.760
might remember i worked for governor perry yeah uh and and and was a part of some of those
00:13:09.660
conversations i must admit i don't know the final results i know that he was working very hard to
00:13:13.640
try to protect texas with the foresight of knowing you know i worked with him on his book fed up in
00:13:18.980
2010 2011 and uh you know laying out where we saw a lot of this going yeah with the powers being
00:13:25.600
centralized in washington i'll try to run that to ground and find that answer but we're at that point
00:13:29.920
i just want to be clear we're at that point where we've got to start figuring out how to care for our
00:13:34.820
families and our communities uh yes you know constitutional framework but understand and i just
00:13:41.280
tweeted this out the constitution is only as good as a nation willing to honor its core purposes its
00:13:47.900
core principles of a limited government with separated powers diffusing the power across federal
00:13:53.440
and state local governments that we honor that to protect liberty and protect rights under the
00:13:58.440
constitution and this federal government is refusing to do that i will tell you chip um i
00:14:04.500
it bothers me when i hear people say it's time to secede no it is not they are seceding the
00:14:11.500
documents in our national archives that are now being called old outdated and offensive documents
00:14:17.560
fine send them to texas we'll live by them i'm not seceding from america the democrats and the left
00:14:26.600
have seceded already they're the ones in rebellion not us not us amen amen amen thank you and look
00:14:34.400
i've been saying to some of my constituents that this is my view on this matter right now this is
00:14:39.740
our country we get to keep it and these are our terms if you don't agree to that then you go decide
00:14:46.580
if you want to break off i saw sarah silverman tweeted something out this morning you know she's
00:14:51.660
obviously liberal saying maybe we need a national divorce she she threw that out there okay great i want
00:14:57.480
more liberals to recognize you don't believe in what the core principles of this country were and
00:15:03.480
are so you choose to break off we're keeping this country we're keeping our constitutional principles
00:15:09.720
we're going to enforce them but we're not going to let you butcher them and tell us that we're the
00:15:14.920
ones that are wrong man i tell you chip i can't thank you enough for what you're doing and just the
00:15:20.840
words that you're saying give me hope and uh thank you for being as pissed off but focused on the right
00:15:28.760

00:15:55.140
nancy pelosi is on a trip to the united kingdom please keep her she's yours
00:16:11.940
um i know you like really really really old ladies to be in charge of things in your country
00:16:19.540
i mean sure yours isn't bat crap crazy but can you take this one too anyway nancy pelosi she was on a
00:16:29.700
on a trip to the united kingdom she was in cambridge and this is what she said about china
00:16:36.820
we've always felt connected uh to china uh but with their military aggression in the south china sea
00:16:46.340
listen to this continuation of genocide with the regards in uh shenzhen uh province stop stop stop
00:16:53.780
stop is that news to you still did you have you ever heard the united states of america an elect a big
00:17:02.020
elected official a speaker of the house or above say that that china is continuing
00:17:10.660
the genocide on the uyghurs have you heard that i mean the fact that they're doing it is not news to
00:17:17.060
me it's not new but as a what is as pretty close to an official statement of u.s policy correct
00:17:23.140
or or at least what we know we've been critical of them but we don't i mean you know why is the
00:17:29.540
you're still talking about like the the 1917 genocide and whether we should call it genocide
00:17:34.420
correct in turkey yeah okay so let me ask you this why does the united states get such a bad rap with so
00:17:42.020
many historians on the genocide of the jews in germany we didn't act fast enough we didn't act fast
00:17:51.300
enough but what is the excuse on the other side one by the way i don't believe but what is the excuse
00:17:56.580
on the other side we didn't know we didn't know we didn't know it was that bad we we right we knew
00:18:01.140
germany was bad we didn't know what the extent of what they were doing and the better excuse it's
00:18:06.980
still a bad excuse but the better excuse is that fdr when he found out he said the way to make it stop
00:18:13.940
is to stop germany don't don't defer any of our resources away from defeating hitler and killing and
00:18:23.780
cutting the head off the nazi regime that will end the genocide for the jews okay that's the best
00:18:30.500
excuse i've heard but it's still an excuse we knew we knew and fdr did nothing about it what a surprise
00:18:40.580
another democratic icon so he did nothing about it it's it's a horror show the world then said
00:18:50.260
genocide must never happen again it is it is in a separate category it's you can have gulags you can
00:19:01.780
have uh torture chambers but genocide state-sponsored genocide is in a separate category really the single
00:19:13.460
worst thing a country can do right i mean i'm trying to think if there's anything on that level but like
00:19:19.860
that would be the ultimate crime you would accuse a country of it would be like saying you know my
00:19:27.220
son he didn't take out the garbage this morning he doesn't clean his room he is late with his math
00:19:34.580
paper uh he commits genocide uh and he also uh is you know late uh for a meeting that he had you know at
00:19:44.420
the church wait one of those things right is a lot bigger so this is what she did with the military
00:19:52.260
aggression in the chaos the south china sea with the continuation of genocide with the uyghurs in uh
00:19:59.780
the zing zhang the zizhang province with a violation of the cultural and religious priorities of tibet
00:20:07.300
they don't pick up their socks okay i mean those are bad things those are all bad things but it's
00:20:13.780
genocide genocide yes is in a okay so now we have nancy pelosi admitting the united states of america
00:20:21.380
knows that they're not only committing it they're continuing to commit to commit it which means we've
00:20:28.340
known for a while and what does she say she goes on to say yes they're committing genocide against the
00:20:36.660
uyghurs but having said that i'm quoting the overriding issue is working together on climate
00:20:45.940
change oh my god would we have worked with hitler on climate change but we have worked with would we
00:20:55.060
have worked with hitler on developing the bomb would we have worked with hitler on developing the autobahn
00:21:00.900
would we have worked with would we have worked with hitler on his socialized medicine would we have
00:21:07.140
worked with hitler on any of his national socialist ideas the answer is no no when you're committing
00:21:17.620
genocide no okay she said we have to work together on climate because climate is the overriding issue
00:21:34.580
there is no way to describe this mindset that yes they are killing an entire group of people because
00:21:45.460
of their ethnicity or religion they are systematically rounding them up using them for slave labor
00:21:53.700
and killing them using their organs and selling them on the open market they are nothing more than
00:22:03.220
cattle for us to recognize it and do nothing about it is one thing but to say we recognize it but we have
00:22:12.420
bigger things to talk to them about is a horror show now there's point one remember what i want to talk to you
00:22:22.820
about is we will become the worst plague on human on human life ever if we let our country go to the dark side
00:22:34.660
we will make the nazis look like rookies first step oh we know they're systematically killing a group of
00:22:45.780
people but we have bigger priorities climate change okay next one we are not going to leave anyone behind
00:22:58.100
we won't leave anyone behind we'll make sure every american gets out there's maybe 46 americans left now
00:23:06.740
bullcrap i have hundreds hundreds of americans hundreds that are still waiting to get out and i cannot
00:23:17.540
get the state department to even admit it and when they give us permission to fly our airplanes they are
00:23:24.660
too late because those that x they the uh the paperwork that they gave us that they insist we must have
00:23:32.500
somehow or another they only deliver it to us an hour after it's expired
00:23:39.780
it is evil what is happening it is evil they are dehumanizing american citizens they don't count
00:23:51.780
why because of politics next story biden has just said the administration
00:24:01.620
needs to cut back on the shipments of a highly effective therapy for covid 19
00:24:15.540
it is a bogus antibody it is a made antibody instead of giving you a part of the disease
00:24:22.900
this is giving you a fake antibody that kills the disease so instead of having a vaccine
00:24:44.260
they're cutting back the therapy and not sending them to red states
00:24:47.460
now they're saying because the red states are just using too much using too much can you tell me the
00:24:54.180
states where they can't get it let's make sure the doses are not in their own words
00:25:03.060
part of an an effort to make sure there is medical equity
00:25:08.580
i'm sorry we can't help those we can't help those poor hurricane victims because we've helped so
00:25:18.500
many hurricane victims in america lately we got to go find those hurricane victims that
00:25:23.300
might need our help in the future in england what put the medicine where the medicine is needed
00:25:33.860
and by the way this is something i guess we could argue about if if all of a sudden uh seattle needs all
00:25:42.740
of this uh mono uh uh monoclonal antibody work if all of a sudden seattle needs it i guess we can say okay
00:25:51.300
so where does it go but for a for a government that doesn't care what bridge they cross what
00:25:59.300
constitutional rule that we have that they throw out of the window and say we'll make these companies
00:26:07.300
make more of it instead of that oh no no we can't make more of it we just have to make sure that texas
00:26:13.300
and florida don't get it this is from the people who are on television every night saying that doctors
00:26:19.940
should refuse medical treatment for anybody who doesn't get the vaccine
00:26:34.260
on what is the biggest threat to a nation to our nation
00:26:42.820
here's what people who vote for the gop said was the biggest threat to our nation in order
00:27:03.380
here is what independents say is the biggest problem
00:27:10.660
then yes then defund the police that's what independents say what did democrats say
00:27:18.340
now by the way the number one for the gop is at 66 percent number two is uh 62 then 58
00:27:26.180
uh independents 46 45 and then 36 for the top three here's the democrats
00:27:32.900
the democrats the number one threat to america donald trump supporters
00:27:40.580
the number two threat to america is unvaccinated americans
00:27:49.460
then you drop 12 points to number three which is the taliban
00:28:10.820
they are saying that someone who refuses to get the vaccine
00:28:30.180
and say because they believe they have a right to say no i'm not comfortable with this
00:28:39.460
if you would have taken donald trump up on his offer which he has offered several times
00:28:44.260
let me be a spokesperson i'll talk to the right let me go do commercials for you that says
00:28:51.540
hey guys you got to take it i've taken it it's not so bad
00:28:56.980
if you would have come to us and said how do we talk to people
00:29:00.900
you might have been able to get some of these things done for instance
00:29:06.500
you got to go to companies and force them no no not going to do it not going to do it
00:29:12.020
however if the government wants to pay for the simple test that you take once a week it's
00:29:17.700
non-invasive it's no big deal and they want to make those available for companies and they come
00:29:22.660
and say hey would you do this and they hadn't been so damn creepy and weird on everything from
00:29:29.620
the beginning and shut down any kind of information that disagrees with their political narrative
00:29:37.380
here's what i want you to know they don't care about they don't care about people living or dying
00:29:42.740
they don't care because we see it in afghanistan they don't care they don't care about people who
00:29:52.180
are going to get covid they don't care or they would make every option available and they would have
00:29:58.500
followed their own research that was done a year and a half ago how do we convince people in the
00:30:06.020
government's own research it says don't do these things and that's what the biden administration has
00:30:13.380
focused on they are intentionally irritating intentionally poking they want you to strike out
00:30:24.260
god help us if anybody does they want you to do it because they are preparing to eliminate the problem
00:30:37.780
if you believe that genocide we need to tolerate because we have bigger issues if you believe i as a doctor
00:30:48.020
can say oh you don't agree with what i say is true i'm not going to give you any treatment
00:30:57.620
mark my words if we don't stop this path now and start standing up together in love in peace in harmony
00:31:05.380
and find those people that didn't vote the same way but believe in the same principles
00:31:29.540
we have a voice that you need to hear tina ramirez she's a congressional candidate and founder and
00:31:35.140
president of hardwired global she is uh actually running for a congressional seat in virginia uh i
00:31:42.980
want you to do your homework on her tina ramirez.com or you can follow her on twitter at tina ramirez va
00:31:50.100
i'll give that to you again um after you hear a little bit uh from her she is somebody who has worked
00:31:56.180
tirelessly to save human lives i mean really been in you were in iraq
00:32:04.420
saving people um when that was all going down you're currently working so hard in afghanistan
00:32:12.660
we welcome to the show first of all thank you for having me it's great to be with you um
00:32:17.700
uh i just i just did a story a minute ago about nancy pelosi where she will admit and i think this is
00:32:26.500
new are you aware that the united states has officially just said yep they're committing genocide
00:32:32.100
well it happened under the trump administration they actually acknowledged it the state department
00:32:35.460
but you know biden kind of put the kibosh on that from what i understood so the fact that she's
00:32:39.460
admitting it i mean you know kind of haphazardly as she also says that it's okay to ignore it while
00:32:44.740
addressing climate change i think is just you know absurd i mean i at some point in our history
00:32:49.700
never again meant never again and we actually have the world courage to actually you know prevent
00:32:55.140
it but but this isn't a lack of courage look at what's happening in afghanistan you and i both know
00:33:02.260
plenty hundreds of a blue blue passport holding americans are left there and they don't care
00:33:13.140
they're doing everything they can to thwart us we've been working so closely with you i can't
00:33:18.260
thank you enough for your leadership oh your your work on this has been phenomenal i mean helping
00:33:22.180
these christians get out i was receiving tons of phone calls for i mean days as the situation just
00:33:28.260
unraveled in afghanistan for people trying to get out the christians that had just changed their
00:33:32.340
identity cards literally a few months before and then were public enemy number one as soon as the
00:33:37.300
taliban you know the keys were handed to them literally american i had a young woman with her
00:33:42.740
17 month old child who called me pleading to help us get out of there and you know you send these
00:33:47.860
names to the state department and then they hand them over to the taliban yeah i mean what where are
00:33:52.260
we in america that we've left americans behind could you please could you please go into that for
00:33:56.420
just a second because that is something that blinken denied he said we've only done it a couple of
00:34:01.220
times and i know this isn't true we've only done it a couple of times it's in the hundreds not
00:34:06.260
the thousands of people and it was only when we needed to get a bus across a checkpoint so they
00:34:11.380
could get out glenn i know at least 15 christians who were killed in afghanistan because the recklessness
00:34:19.140
of this u.s foreign policy i have seen this in so many countries with our state department that does
00:34:25.060
not understand religion they don't get it and they put people in harm's way and they end up getting
00:34:30.260
their lives killed christians are being killed in afghanistan right now they are going door to door
00:34:35.300
and literally rounding people up and killing them they're looking for americans and there are
00:34:39.780
still americans there lots it's it's insane i mean so i've spent the last 20 years working over 30
00:34:45.060
countries where human rights are don't exist where religious freedom doesn't exist i've seen this
00:34:51.140
firsthand i remember being in in sudan working on the miriam ibrahim case a woman that's going to be
00:34:55.460
put to death because you know she she um dared you know choose her own faith these are the kinds of
00:35:00.900
realities that are now going to be happening in afghanistan every day i mean women and children
00:35:05.300
being forced into child marriages rounded up at their homes and put to death simply because they
00:35:10.100
believe differently than the taliban and we literally handed the keys over for them to do it
00:35:14.580
this i think that the people in that are listening really need to understand that our national security
00:35:19.220
is at threat around the world right now the grave consequences of telling an authoritarian regime
00:35:25.220
hey we're just going to turn our back not only on people that we should care about in the world
00:35:30.660
because we value religious freedom and other things but our own people that sends a message
00:35:35.060
that it's free it's you know it's free they have free reign it's open season go ahead ukraine
00:35:40.660
taiwan you name it and in iraq where i work where i'm helping retrain the children that were brainwashed
00:35:45.940
by isis to be terrorists and we're teaching them religious freedom the government's given us full full full
00:35:50.980
access to nineveh and mosul to work with teachers and to retrain these children so they don't
00:35:56.340
have to go back to another cycle of conflict but you know what we're we are we have a good chance
00:36:02.420
that he's going to do the same damn thing well isis is re-emerging it's already re-emerging i'll be
00:36:07.380
there in a month and i mean does that mean that i'm going to be standing there facing another genocide
00:36:12.020
again because of the failures of america's foreign policy and that's really a fairly failure of our
00:36:16.660
leadership and that's why i'm running for congress i remember being there when the genocide
00:36:20.260
started in iraq i was five months pregnant with my own daughter i have done this i did it in the
00:36:25.220
u.s congress i built the bipartisan caucus on international religious freedom i've done it
00:36:28.980
all over the world and to stand there pregnant and see a lady whose daughter had been ripped from her
00:36:34.500
arms at gunpoint i thought my god that can never happen i never want that to be the future that my
00:36:41.620
daughter would ever have to experience so that i would have to experience my heart breaks for these
00:36:45.620
people and yet we just stand by and ignore it hand the keys over to authoritarians and then we give
00:36:51.620
up our own freedoms here in our country and allow these same people that don't have the the courage
00:36:56.820
to stand up to authoritarians around the rest of the world to then dictate what we can think what are
00:37:02.020
trying to indoctrinate our kids destroying our own freedom of worship and of speech here in america
00:37:08.100
it's got to stop it's got to stop i ask a really personal question sure
00:37:16.820
my foundation has been trying to save people for a while um and i've been on the fundraising side
00:37:24.900
and i stay my distance from all of it this time i got involved
00:37:42.740
i don't know how to function i don't know how to go back and forth i don't know how to say
00:37:50.500
yeah we did a lot of good when there's so many else how do you do this how do you do this
00:38:05.620
did you ever feel this way does it get easier no but you fight harder because you know what's at stake
00:38:13.460
i we have so much to fight for when i when i was a child and became passionate about religious
00:38:21.780
freedom and helping people i saw christians in sudan two million christians be killed by their
00:38:28.180
own government and i thought my god if they have the courage to live for their faith in the midst of
00:38:33.060
such horrors yes how can i not stand for my faith here where i have the freedom to do it and if i train
00:38:38.420
people around the world to stand up and to go into areas where they're going to be persecuted to stand
00:38:42.820
up for freedom and i tell them go and do it how can i not have the moral courage to do it right here
00:38:47.620
in america right now to stand up to our government to what they're doing to our own people and to
00:38:52.020
people around the rest of the world the world looks to us to be the beacon of hope and freedom in the
00:38:56.260
world we have just turned our backs on them those christians in afghanistan that you've been helping
00:39:01.460
and rescuing so many of them are saying what happened where's america if america isn't the leader
00:39:07.780
of the free world then who is china russia isis is that the is that the legacy we want for our
00:39:14.980
children that's why this is so critical it is life and death and we've got to take it seriously
00:39:20.580
are everything in the world is at stake right now would you agree with me because you've been
00:39:26.100
in you've been in and around washington for so long working on these things
00:39:30.500
it's it feels different but maybe it's just because maybe i was stupid and naive i never thought
00:39:39.460
our government was firmly on the wrong side what i'm seeing in afghanistan is evil in cases we are a
00:39:50.980
force for evil and getting people killed that is shocking to me has it always been this way or is this
00:40:00.020
because if that's who america is then all of the people that say america sucks they're right i served
00:40:06.820
i served under trent franks in the u.s house of representatives when tom lantos the only survivor
00:40:12.820
of the holocaust was was the chair of the foreign affairs committee it was different it was different
00:40:19.860
i don't know what's happened what i can tell you is the younger generations that are following aoc
00:40:24.740
laughing about the tens of thousands of dollars she can waste on a dress and on a ticket to the met gala
00:40:29.620
while women and children are dying in afghanistan and in iraq and all over the world while their rights
00:40:34.740
are being stripped from them this virtue signaling has got to stop and the younger generations need
00:40:40.260
to come to terms with the fact that the emperor has no clothes they are hypocrites they are hypocrites
00:40:46.900
and the real people that stand up for freedom and dignity of the world the we the real people that
00:40:50.660
stand up and we're going to march for women are not the liberals and the progressives that parade
00:40:55.620
around and met the mac gala joking about taxing the rich the real ones are going to be us freedom
00:41:00.900
loving people that stand up how can they stand up to authoritarian regimes around the rest of the world
00:41:06.660
when they are literally pushing marxism in our public schools and indoctrinating our children to hate
00:41:11.940
our country you're running in virginia which is a state that has gone nuts it's gone insane it's ground
00:41:20.580
zero for everything we need to fight for right now and that's really coming out of northern virginia
00:41:25.700
because those are all the people that are running washington um i mean you're going from bad to worse
00:41:33.220
what why do you want to run for congress and and uh what is the main thing that you think you can
00:41:42.420
accomplish in that congressional district this is a this is a republican seat we never should have lost
00:41:50.420
it and we need to get it back we are six seats short of winning the majority in congress and putting
00:41:55.060
a check on joe biden and nancy pelosi that is my motivation every day when i think of that woman in
00:42:00.500
iraq who lost her child at gunpoint and i look at my daughter i do not want her growing up in america
00:42:06.180
where our rights and freedoms have been stripped from us that is what motivates me every day and so i am
00:42:11.620
very motivated the woman that i'm running against has taken more money than anyone else from the
00:42:14.900
teachers unions she sits on the foreign affairs committee and she literally sits there and is silent
00:42:21.060
when ilhan omar attacks israel and calls them a terrorist organization she's silent on cuba she
00:42:26.020
was silent on afghanistan instead of putting a check on joe biden and on the atrocities in the world
00:42:30.820
that's why i'm running because we have got to restore common sense leadership to our government
00:42:34.580
it won't happen unless we fight for it and this is a seat that if we don't win we don't win back
00:42:38.900
the majority and we don't do it so we've got to i really sincerely um can't thank you enough for
00:42:46.660
everything that you've done and i know how hard you've been working um on this and you've been
00:42:53.380
a champion for us and and i just can't thank you enough for what you're doing for
00:43:04.980
is her name she is running for congress uh in virginia's 7th district please find her and if
00:43:14.420
you can support her uh tina ramirez.com truly one of the people that bonhoeffer uh would be proud of
