Hello, everybody. I'm Lou Dobbs. Welcome to The Great America Show. Thanks for being with us.
00:01:23.000
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell stepping down in November. McConnell made the announcement
00:01:27.920
on the Senate floor yesterday. This is the time for conservatives to get a hold of their senators
00:01:33.740
and tell them to replace McConnell with an America First leader who will work with President Trump,
00:01:40.120
not against him. And elsewhere on Capitol Hill, Hunter Biden testified yesterday before the Joint
00:01:46.840
House Oversight and Judiciary Committee hearing. It didn't take long before he perjured himself in
00:01:52.800
his opening statement. He said this, quote, I am here today to provide the committees with the one
00:01:58.840
uncontestable fact that should end the false premise of this inquiry. I did not involve my father in my
00:02:05.660
business, not while I was a practicing lawyer, not in my investments or transactions, domestic or
00:02:12.140
international, not as a board member and not as an artist, never, end quote. That statement directly
00:02:19.640
contradicts almost all of the evidence and witness testimony that we've heard so far in the Biden
00:02:25.820
impeachment inquiry. Here's Congressman Dan Golden of New York. He seems to be the latest Mark C.
00:02:32.180
Dem Lackey for the Biden crime family. Get this. Golden says the Republicans bringing Hunter in for
00:02:39.820
a deposition is nothing more than the Republicans working for Putin and the Russians. That's right.
00:02:47.040
Working for Putin and the Russians. The Marxist Dems don't have Trump derangement, folks.
00:02:53.440
They have demonic derangement. They lie and then they lie some more. Here's Golden.
00:02:59.080
So it is not simply there's no connection to the president, which we've known all along and which
00:03:06.080
was made clear again. But there is a very understandable, coherent business explanation for
00:03:12.900
every single thing that they ask for. And now that all of this China stuff or Romania or Kazakhstan
00:03:20.900
is clearly, clearly baseless and bogus, the only thing that the Republicans have left are these
00:03:29.720
Burisma allegations, which we now know were completely made up by their source, who's now been indicted
00:03:36.680
because he was working with Russian intelligence to interfere in our election. And so let's be very
00:03:42.420
clear, because that is the only basis to move forward with an impeachment inquiry. If this impeachment
00:03:48.120
inquiry continues, then Chairman Comer and Chairman Jordan are working with Russia to interfere in the
00:03:56.100
November 2024 election on behalf of Vladimir Putin in for the benefit of Donald Trump. That is what this
00:04:06.300
has been reduced to now. And that is what this first hour showed us. Can you believe that? While
00:04:12.140
Golden is clearly delusional, Chairman Comer had a far different stance on just how the deposition went.
00:04:19.640
Deposition still ongoing. I have a bill on the House floor. I'm going to run across the street.
00:04:23.800
Republicans are still currently asking questions. But I think this was a great deposition for us.
00:04:30.180
It proved several bits of our evidence that we've been conducting throughout this investigation.
00:04:37.560
But there are also some contradictory statements that I think need further review.
00:04:42.240
So this impeachment inquiry will now go to the next phase, which will be a public hearing.
00:04:47.180
And that's something that I think everyone in the media has been asking a lot of questions about,
00:04:52.520
something that I know that Mr. Biden and his attorney both demanded. Just as I said,
00:04:57.880
when we said we were going to do the deposition first, we will have a public hearing next. So I
00:05:03.380
think that the public hearing hopefully will clear up some discrepancies between some of the
00:05:08.760
statements that were made between some of the associates and what we heard today. But all in
00:05:13.080
all, I'm very optimistic, very excited about this deposition. And I look forward to releasing the
00:05:19.600
transcripts as soon as both sides agree to that. Hopefully that'll be within the next two or three days.
00:05:24.780
Chairman Comer has been nothing but transparent throughout this whole investigation.
00:05:29.540
And he's certainly the right man to lead the impeachment inquiry.
00:05:33.280
Our guest today is Congressman Tim Burchett, member of the House Oversight Committee.
00:05:38.140
And Congressman, it's always good to talk with you. Chuck Schumer, the Senate Majority Leader,
00:05:42.840
saying negotiators are very close to a deal. Are you excited? What are your thoughts?
00:05:48.020
Well, I don't know, Lou. You know, we don't have a border that I'm not voting for a budget. I'll tell you
00:05:55.180
that. We've got this is the biggest issue facing our country right now. And it's it's fentanyl. It's
00:06:02.480
$400 billion a year. It's it's throwing elections because people are going to use these mail in ballots,
00:06:10.760
I'm afraid, that are coming here illegally because you don't show any ID. And and it and it puts our
00:06:17.800
national security at risk with all these Chinese that are coming over. They're not crossing two or
00:06:23.540
three continents for freedom. They could have stayed somewhere else. There's something really bad and
00:06:28.760
nefarious going on. And I wish I wish the White House and Schumer would would realize that.
00:06:39.120
Well, it's pretty clear that with that private meeting between Speaker Johnson and President Biden,
00:06:46.800
that something may unfold here that that's going to be at least revelatory, if not if not pleasing.
00:06:55.820
What are your thoughts about what the likely outcome is of these negotiations, particularly on the budget?
00:07:03.100
I think I just don't have a lot of faith in in what's going on. They always come out and say we've come to
00:07:09.280
this agreement. Well, I haven't come to an agreement. You know, it's great that they can do that and the people
00:07:14.200
that will fall in line. But I I'm I'm still I'm optimistic. I really am. I think Speaker Johnson wants to do
00:07:21.420
the right thing. He's he's got a one person majority or maybe not even that. He has to be careful when he
00:07:27.320
goes to the floor that the Democrats aren't in the majority and can take over. So it's a real it's a real
00:07:33.680
chess game right now. What's going on? And and we we, as you know, we generally play checkers and the other
00:07:41.000
side always plays chess. So hopefully we we've we've upped our game. I would hope, though, that the president
00:07:49.260
understands the dire consequences of this border situation and that, you know, the little girl
00:07:55.240
getting murdered over in Georgia. I mean, that's just you multiply that across the country. You can't
00:08:00.700
run into anybody who hasn't had a family member or or knows someone who's been impacted by fentanyl
00:08:06.900
that's come over our southern border and they just can't hide it anymore. They can't hide it in the
00:08:12.640
and the national media can't hide it for them anymore. The American public sees it. And that's why
00:08:17.820
that's why Biden wins the border. And that's why. So my hope is, is that we pulled a rabbit out of
00:08:26.140
her hat and we'll get a real border deal on this thing. Yeah. And pessimism about that possibility
00:08:33.220
runs high. And Biden on the border on part of Texas and and the president in Eagles Pass, Texas,
00:08:43.200
where he'll be there with these all of these state authorities, the National Guard, everyone there
00:08:50.120
and the head of the Border Patrol Union, who won't have anything to do with Joe Biden, interestingly
00:08:56.500
enough, despite going along with that crazy border bill that Mitch McConnell put in front of everybody.
00:09:03.360
But here we are. And we are watching a remarkable development, I think. And that is that Matt
00:09:13.220
Rosendale is under attack by the by the left. Former Senator Heidi Heitkamp accused making all sorts of
00:09:22.300
salacious claims on a podcast. We've got a campaign that's underway against the Republicans running from
00:09:30.860
probably the White House. This is going to be a tough, tough battle. And I think the gloves are
00:09:37.160
coming off McConnell resigning effective in November. I think the country is cheering that.
00:09:43.960
But the Republicans, it's going to be very important what they do. What do you expect?
00:09:48.900
I expect 20 million Americans that decided to stay home last time for a mean tweet,
00:09:55.200
get off their butts and do what's right for this country. And, you know, I always remember a prayer
00:10:01.400
my dad made on the night Bill Clinton won. Daddy, you didn't know my daddy, but he was a United States
00:10:06.280
Marine combat veteran, Second World War, First Marine Division, invasion of Okinawa and Peleli.
00:10:12.580
He prayed. He said, Lord, please don't let us lose our country. And to me, that was very profound.
00:10:18.780
And this one is for all the marbles. We will lose our country, Lou, as you and I know it.
00:10:24.780
The Marxists are in control. They're openly defiant. They are openly, they attack our country, our
00:10:33.220
values, our religious beliefs, everything that we hold near and dear to our heart, and they're allowed
00:10:38.220
to do it. And the media is right in there with them. Because anybody who stands up for their children,
00:10:43.780
as you know, you know, our own FBI accuses parents who go after pornography being spread in their
00:10:53.160
classrooms, in the public classrooms that taxpayers are paying for it. When a parent stands up to that,
00:10:58.040
the FBI labels them a domestic terrorist. We have lost control of the whole thing, Lou. It is not a
00:11:04.920
swamp. You know, a swamp is something God created. It's a system, as I've stated many times, it's a system
00:11:11.320
that filters water. It's an ecosystem. We have an open sewer right now. It all flows in, and nothing
00:11:18.200
flows out. And if we don't, if we do not address this at the polls this time, we will lose our country.
00:11:25.420
Without a question. This is the existential election that we have all been fearing, and which is arriving
00:11:32.200
in some eight months. I want to go to the issue of Matt Rosendale. Your thoughts about the comments that
00:11:39.980
were made, the slurs against him by a former Democratic senator. You're thinking about that.
00:11:49.700
Well, to me, it's the old double standard. Just say it was true. And I mean, look, we've got a
00:11:57.280
Democrat member of Congress who Nancy Pelosi allowed to sit on Intelligence Committee that had a
00:12:04.980
relationship with a known Chinese communist spy, and that was broadcast everywhere. And the intelligence
00:12:12.240
people said he should not be on there, but Pelosi kept him on. You know, it's just, and, you know,
00:12:18.780
those kind of things, you know, it turns my stomach. Rosendale's a buddy of mine, and it just makes me sick,
00:12:28.300
and that they're allowed to get by with that. And where is the media calling her out? You know who's
00:12:33.000
doing it? It's people like yourself who've got some guts, who used to, when you say you worked for
00:12:38.040
the media, it was back when it had a little bit of a class about it. You know, you verify things,
00:12:44.800
and this bunch today sure does, and the left has allowed a free hand at it. And it's just,
00:12:51.020
we are under attack, top to bottom, every aspect of any, and Rosendale's a known conservative. He and I,
00:12:58.900
and we sit close to each other on the floor, and we talk every day. And this was just more of the
00:13:05.380
same. You know, they start these whisper campaigns, and then boom, they put it out nationally. And
00:13:12.300
there's no time for him to defend. He's guilty. You know, he is guilty before anything else. And
00:13:18.840
we've just, we've allowed them to take over. As I've stated many times, the money changers are
00:13:28.900
running the temple right now. We're talking with Congressman Tim Burchip,
00:13:33.200
and we ask you to stay with us, because we'll come right back. I promise. Stay with us.
00:13:39.160
Folks, you know, I beg everyone to get ready for the next crisis. And when it comes,
00:13:43.900
our lives will likely change overnight, whether it's natural disaster, war, or another disease.
00:13:50.220
We have to be ready as we can be. We saw what happened in 2020 when we found ourselves
00:13:55.080
dependent on global supply chains. We're still dependent on China and other countries
00:13:59.540
for more than 90% of all our pharmaceuticals. With clusters of respiratory illnesses popping up
00:14:05.360
around the world and here, we need to be prepared. And now is the time to make certain you have what
00:14:11.800
your family needs when the next crisis hits. Our good friends, Dr. Peter McCullough and Dr. Drew

00:15:11.760
We're back now. We're talking with Congressman Tim Burchard. And please, Congressman, give us your
00:15:21.780
sense on Mike Johnson. There are rumors that there are folks ready to move, to vacate, to replace the
00:15:30.760
Speaker. I think that's just about all we need right now is another fight on Capitol Hill. What are your
00:15:38.920
thoughts? Yeah. Well, I hope that's not the case, Lou. You know, I studied psychology, people's
00:15:46.500
psychology, not so much in the books. I studied it in college, of course. But I've noticed something
00:15:52.800
that a lot of the folks, and I was one of the original eight that voted to oust the previous
00:15:58.340
Speaker. And I've noticed several of the people that you would have thought would have voted vacate
00:16:04.580
didn't that last time. And now they're kind of chomping at the bit at something because
00:16:09.980
they felt like they got, they caught grief when they got home because they knew in their hearts
00:16:16.080
where they should have been. And they just didn't want to step out on that ledge with us. And because
00:16:22.020
it was a lonely, it was a lonely time sitting on that house floor with eight of us, I want to tell
00:16:26.340
you. And, and so I think that's part of it. And part of it is just dissatisfaction. But the reality
00:16:33.260
is, we're one, when the former Speaker decided to leave a year early, after he was dethroned,
00:16:41.080
that put us one vote away. So if you've got somebody who's sick, you have a death in a family,
00:16:46.600
somebody who can't make it, somebody caught in traffic, you know, we lose key votes. And,
00:16:52.400
and that's, and so it's a very, it's very important. I think right now that we have a
00:16:57.220
cohesive nature, especially going into this election cycle, because President Trump has stated that
00:17:04.780
very much how he likes Mike Johnson. And, and so I would hope that that would carry some weight,
00:17:11.460
but we do not, I don't, I do not think we need another vacate to tear right now.
00:17:15.840
Yeah. I think that has to carry weight and, you know, carried a lot of weight when the president said
00:17:21.440
that McConnell's bill, border bill, so-called, was political suicide for the, for the Republicans.
00:17:30.460
That, that pretty much ended that. I think everybody knows right now, he's not only the
00:17:34.520
presumptive nominee of the Republican Party, he is without question, across the board, the leader
00:17:39.920
of the Republican Party. And that takes me to my next question, which is Senator Schumer
00:17:45.180
announcing he's stepping down in November. Now, the man has health issues, he has family problems,
00:17:51.420
apparently, as well, family concerns. I should put it that way. I don't mean to imply anything
00:17:57.180
else. You said Schumer, you meant McConnell. I'm sorry. Did I say Schumer? Thank you.
00:18:04.140
McConnell. You're wishing, you're wishing that. Yes, sir. I have no comment on that, Senator,
00:18:11.340
as they say in the movies, but you're, I appreciate the correction. McConnell is, you know,
00:18:18.040
shoulder to shoulder with Schumer. And I have to say, I, there's not going to, I don't believe
00:18:24.260
there are going to be many tears when the man leaves. I think the real tears are about,
00:18:28.260
why is he waiting till November? Your reaction?
00:18:32.020
Yeah. I suspect it's so they can cut a deal to put somebody else in power that, that won't be
00:18:39.720
quite as conservative as you and I would like. And that, and I, I wish he would, um, when, you know,
00:18:46.220
I, I hope they're not cut, they haven't already cut a deal, put a moderate in, as, um, in that
00:18:52.080
position. We need somebody strong right now. We need somebody that's going to have the back of
00:18:56.340
President Trump and frankly, somebody that can work with the house because we haven't, we haven't
00:19:01.220
really seen a lot of that as of late. The deal cutting and things to me, um, were, were not very
00:19:07.240
advantageous to us and the conservative cause. And, um, but it's just to get, you can get along to
00:19:13.460
get along kind of thing. You know, we, we're taking 5 trillion, we spend 7 trillion. That's
00:19:17.900
just the way we've always done it. You know, that kind of mentality. And it's got to go loose. It's
00:19:22.940
got it. We got to get, we got to get back to the basics. We got to start managing our money,
00:19:28.400
managing our, our borders and, um, and, and not being the world's peacekeeper because that historically
00:19:35.300
that has proven very, um, detrimental to us and our, and our financial wellbeing.
00:19:42.480
Well, we're in a peculiar place. And I asked you about McConnell, uh, because I think we're
00:19:47.960
going to see big changes in Washington, DC. First of all, President Trump will be returned
00:19:52.460
to, to the white house. Uh, McConnell means that there's an opportunity to put real leadership
00:19:58.360
in there. My personal view is that John Thune is no way fit to be the leader of anything,
00:20:06.220
let alone, uh, the leader of the minority or the majority of the case, uh, uh, is such, uh,
00:20:12.640
in, in the U S Senate, uh, Joni Ernst, uh, another member of leadership hasn't even, uh, endorsed
00:20:19.660
President Trump, nor has McConnell. Uh, and, and by the way, Thune only endorsed him a few days ago.
00:20:26.180
Uh, this is a recalcitrant bunch of rhinos and they, they need to be, you know, to step back and
00:20:33.760
step down in a way. Uh, I just can't imagine putting any one of them in there. Um, have you
00:20:39.840
got any favorites in the race that, that is yet to be run? No, sir. Uh, being from Tennessee and
00:20:46.120
unless it's, unless it's Hagerty or, or Marsha Blackburn, I don't, I don't, um, I'm cause I know
00:20:53.620
once they cut that deal that we're not gonna, you know, the unit party will be once again in,
00:20:59.360
in command. And, um, I, I don't have a lot of, I don't have a lot of hope in that and faith in
00:21:05.960
that system over there because it's just, it's old school. It's news fan. It's, you know, the G
00:21:11.480
street, the K street lobbyists, excuse me. Um, they're going to be moving and operating, you know,
00:21:18.200
interesting thing about McConnell. He didn't, you know, in the house, we have to pay dues. We have
00:21:24.900
to raise so much money if we want to go up in, in the, in the structure, which is really, I think
00:21:29.820
crooked, crooked as the dog's leg, as they would say in East Tennessee, but McConnell took on that
00:21:35.740
role and he raised all the money in the, um, um, in, in, in, in his caucus in those races,
00:21:45.520
which I thought was interesting, you know, for the, for the caucus, uh, operation. And, and, uh,
00:21:52.100
that made people that switched over from the house to the Senate, they love that, but it really,
00:21:56.160
what it did was it consolidated all the power within him. And so whoever has that position
00:22:02.600
will have at their fingertips, multi, multi millions of dollars, um, to, uh, to negotiate
00:22:10.860
other, uh, other legislative races, just the, the whole, the whole agenda. So I, I would hope
00:22:18.380
you'd have somebody that had some conservative landing slew because if we don't, again, this
00:22:23.300
continuation of, you know, well, they paid their dues kind of thing. I don't give a rip if they
00:22:28.700
paid their dues. I want to know if they're going to, if they're going to serve the country
00:22:32.880
and their constituents and not, and not the lobbyist and not the international crowd.
00:22:37.440
Right. I agree with you a hundred percent. We're talking with Congressman Tim Burchett
00:22:42.520
and, uh, we're talking about succession in the Senate and we're talking about success
00:22:48.500
in the house. When we come back right after these quick words, stay with us.
00:22:54.440
Lou Dobbs here. I'm delighted to let you all know that the program Lou Dobbs tonight has returned to
00:23:00.880
the air. That's right. Lou Dobbs tonight is back. We're live each and every weeknight at 7 PM
00:23:09.020
Eastern and 6 PM central on rumble.com slash Lou Dobbs. That's rumble.com slash Lou Dobbs. I hope
00:23:18.920
you'll be joining us for Lou Dobbs tonight as our fight to save this country has only begun.
00:23:30.880
We're back with Congressman Tim Burchett and Congressman, I want to turn to, well, a few
00:23:37.000
things. Uh, when we talk about Schumer and the negotiations of border security in Ukraine,
00:23:43.600
why is it none of these, these issues can be just resolved? I mean, flat out killed or flat out,
00:23:51.960
uh, agreed to, uh, it's, it's as if there is this, uh, Chinese water torture. It just keeps coming
00:23:58.740
and dribs and drabs. And, uh, it's, it's sickening to watch it because you know, the establishment is
00:24:05.200
just simply trying to wear down the, the rational minority, uh, on Capitol Hill and neither house.
00:24:12.740
Absolutely. Absolutely. I, you know, the only people that are profiting under this situation
00:24:18.320
are the, um, the national chambers of commerce. And then they want people in this country that are
00:24:23.260
illegal. They can pay under the table. They can, they fall off your roof while they're roofing it.
00:24:28.060
They, they can't sue you because they're afraid they'll, they'll, they'll get deported. It's
00:24:32.500
not your local chambers of commerce, but you remember a few years back when they shocked the
00:24:37.060
world, the chamber of commerce endorsed, I think it was either 12 or 14 of Nancy Pelosi's
00:24:42.300
lieutenants in the house of representatives. And they, and they, lo and behold, they ended up
00:24:46.640
holding onto the, to the, um, to the majority by a thin margin. And it was because of that support.
00:24:52.760
And these folks are not out, you know, they're not out for commerce. They're out for
00:24:57.200
themselves. It's that uniparty thing. It's these Republicans that vote like Democrats and
00:25:02.580
Democrats that will, will, will lean over to, to stay in power. And that's what we're up
00:25:08.820
against, Lou. I don't see it. And it, it, and until America wakes up and, and two, they
00:25:15.120
need to start holding us accountable. Dadgummit. I hear people say, Oh, he said, man, I hear
00:25:20.600
your, you need to really work with such and such on these bills. And then I'll go read
00:25:24.740
the bills like our, um, uh, what was it? The, um, uh, infrastructure bill. 15% of it is
00:25:32.060
what you and I would consider traditional infrastructure or less. The rest was a bunch
00:25:36.620
of woke garbage programs, but because they got their little portion of it in there, they
00:25:41.400
were for it. You know, you read down 2000 page bill, you get to page 18, it takes care
00:25:46.720
of your constituents or that lobbyists. You need degrees and you stop reading and you
00:25:51.180
vote for it. And that kills us. They don't want to change. They don't want single issue
00:25:56.640
spending bills. They want it. They love it. Like it is. They love it. When we pass a continued
00:26:01.380
resolution because guess what? It keeps funding those crappy, awful programs that were put in
00:26:07.240
under Schumer and Pelosi. And they love it when it just stays like it is all this other fighting
00:26:13.280
and stuff to me is a big diversion. It's the spending. It's the people getting rich off our
00:26:17.960
tax dollars that, that I think we really need to be watching. And we're not because of all this
00:26:24.500
craziness going on. And, um, you know, we do for a little bit and then we move on, but it's just,
00:26:30.320
to me, it just, it, it just confounds me that we don't pay better attention to those things
00:26:36.260
because this border thing could be fixed. The president could do it through executive order
00:26:40.840
and just how big it is. You remember they told Trump, they told president Trump, you couldn't
00:26:47.100
have $4 billion cause we couldn't afford it. And then they didn't even bat an eye when they have
00:26:51.920
114 billion to Ukraine. And now we've seen over 50 different instances where they've stolen that
00:27:01.140
money. It's been documented 50. I mean, how many does it take Lou? And they, and they, and they're
00:27:06.840
making us act like we're unpatriotic cause we don't want to give Ukraine any more money.
00:27:11.440
Yeah. Yeah. Well, they're, you know, we're, we're being led by fools all over the, all over Capitol
00:27:17.340
Hill, 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. I'm, I'm the only place I reserve opinion on, on their quality of the,
00:27:25.620
of the folks is in terms of the Supreme court. Uh, I'm, I waver, but I haven't yet decided that
00:27:33.060
they're just, uh, I'm hoping they not, they're not what they most recently appeared, uh, because
00:27:39.000
otherwise we're going to have even bigger troubles. I want to, I want to turn to Joe Biden. Uh, he's
00:27:45.500
getting his physical, but we know that mercifully he will not have a cognitive test and he won't have
00:27:51.840
a neurological exam. But we also know that unfortunately, if ever, ever a man needed both,
00:27:58.600
uh, he's not getting it because his doctor said he would just wouldn't advise it. I mean,
00:28:03.320
that's sort of a metaphor for what's going on in, in Washington. Uh, there's little rationality.
00:28:09.480
There's little relationship between obvious cause and effect and appearances. Uh, you know, I'm just
00:28:16.000
not, I'm not sure what to think when you have a man as impaired as he is. And his doctor is telling
00:28:21.820
him, whatever you do, don't take a cognitive test. Your, your thoughts.
00:28:26.480
Well, the courts even said, you know, that, that ruling that was in the finding or what,
00:28:32.640
I'm not a lawyer, so I'm probably misspeaking, but they said, you know, he, he's an older,
00:28:36.840
he's an older gentleman. He doesn't, he shouldn't be on the, you know, he shouldn't be up there
00:28:40.440
trying something. And I just think it's, they're creating a, a scenario where all this criminal
00:28:48.600
activity, they're going to be able just to say, well, you know what? He was, he was, um,
00:28:54.600
he's not capable of, of, of the cognitive ability, but he can still be president of the United
00:29:00.800
States. It just doesn't make any sense to me, Lou. It doesn't make any sense other than
00:29:05.700
the puppet masters. They've got their puppet. You know, the people in Obama's administration
00:29:11.400
are still pulling those strings and he's getting, you know, these 25 year old kids come out of
00:29:15.700
some Northeastern liberal school and they, and they're in his office whispering in his ear stuff,
00:29:22.020
you know, that's, that's who's running the country. And this, and we've got a dawdling
00:29:26.220
older gentleman who, who needs to, you know, needs to go home and play with his grandchildren.
00:29:32.120
That's what he needs to do. He needs to get out of, he doesn't need to be anywhere near the
00:29:35.700
nuclear football. I'll tell you that we're making decisions. Okay. You know, Australia is even
00:29:40.820
in front of us. Australia what? I said, Australia is even making fun of, of this, this white house.
00:29:48.720
I mean, it's just, you know, there's, you, you, you name any country in the world. I saw,
00:29:53.320
I just saw something this morning. Now they did some parody of, of Joe Biden and it actually,
00:29:58.260
it looked pretty much like him. And, um, you know, they're making fun of him, stumbling
00:30:02.520
around, shuffling his feet, stumbling over his words. And, you know, people knock me, uh, because
00:30:08.600
sometimes I get tongue tied, but you know what, I'm not deciding if we go to war or not, um, you
00:30:13.960
know, theoretically, I'm not the one that's got my finger on the trigger either.
00:30:17.460
You know, what's funny about that is you're supposed to be the one deciding the house of
00:30:22.320
representatives is the only body that can declare war. And you're the only folks to get left
00:30:27.100
out of just about every national security issue. There is, I mean, we've got us quite
00:30:32.260
a world and quite a government and a body politic right now. Congressman, we appreciate you spending
00:30:37.840
part of your day with us as always, uh, you're, you know, it's, uh, you're always interesting and
00:30:44.380
straightforward and that's refreshing. Uh, we appreciate it. Thanks so much.
00:30:49.820
Thank you. Thank you, Lou. It's an honor. It's just an honor for me and my low stature to come on
00:30:56.160
with somebody of your stature. I appreciate you. You're the man. Let's not do a stature off. Let's
00:31:01.880
not do a stature off. I defer to the U S Congress every time. Thanks.
