00:00:00.000 Team USA, freestyle skier, sparks Olympic outrage over remarks about representing U.S. anti-American rhetoric.
00:00:10.640 Rob, is this the clip from my Twitter account or no?
00:00:13.640 No, I can go to your Twitter.
00:00:14.800 If you can go to that one because I want to show the complete difference between how one reacts to it versus another one right there.
00:00:23.740 So here's, what's his name?
00:00:25.940 Hunter Hess.
00:00:26.600 Talking about how he feels representing America.
00:00:29.620 Go ahead, Rob.
00:00:30.400 It brings up mixed emotions to represent the U.S. right now, I think.
00:00:34.800 It's a little hard.
00:00:36.820 There's obviously a lot going on that I'm not the biggest fan of, and I think a lot of people aren't.
00:00:41.200 If it aligns with my moral values, I feel like I'm representing it.
00:00:46.060 Just because I'm wearing the flag doesn't mean I represent everything that's going on in the U.S.
00:00:51.840 So, yeah, I just kind of want to do it for my friends and my family and the people that support me getting here.
00:00:56.280 How does that feel to represent your country like this?
00:00:58.240 It feels amazing.
00:00:59.840 That's, this is what, well, this is what America is about.
00:01:02.520 It's 2020.
00:01:03.000 I love living there.
00:01:04.220 Look at that.
00:01:04.580 I love it.
00:01:05.160 And I'm so happy I get to represent U.S.A.
00:01:10.140 Isn't that awesome?
00:01:11.600 Isn't that awesome what the two different looks like?
00:01:13.540 Of course.
00:01:13.920 One, you're not wanting to represent your country, and then you have Mensah, Tamara Mensah, who is phenomenal on the way she celebrated.
00:01:23.000 By the way, when she was celebrating, some think she's a conservative, okay?
00:01:26.680 You know who the president was when she was celebrating like that?
00:01:29.040 Cool.
00:01:29.360 Biden was the president.
00:01:30.320 Oh, really?
00:01:30.900 Because they changed the dates for COVID.
00:01:32.340 Don't forget when they change the dates for Olympics.
00:01:34.920 So, Adam, your thoughts on this?
00:01:36.520 What's his kid's name?
00:01:38.040 Hess.
00:01:38.400 Hunter Hess.
00:01:39.060 Hunter Hess.
00:01:39.840 Well, here's how I feel.
00:01:43.300 Hunter, you could stay in Italy if you don't like America.
00:01:47.280 You know, this is a Ricky Gervais-type moment.
00:01:49.500 When he gets up on stage, he goes, for you actors who get up on stage, don't make a political statement.
00:01:56.260 Shut your mouth.
00:01:57.340 Thank your agent.
00:01:58.460 Thank your God.
00:01:59.480 Keep it moving.
00:02:00.560 And we just saw what What's-Her-Face, Billie Eilish, did at the Grammys.
00:02:05.320 Buddy, Hunter Hess, who nobody's heard before in their life.
00:02:08.700 You show up on the biggest stage at the Olympics, and all you should be doing is, I love America.
00:02:15.080 I'm proud to be representing my country.
00:02:17.240 That's it, homeboy.
00:02:19.300 So, I would boycott this kid from coming back to America, or certainly from any ads, any sponsors.
00:02:26.560 Obviously, you can come back to America.
00:02:27.520 What do you say to the people, too?
00:02:28.740 Hey, Adam, what happened to freedom of speech?
00:02:30.920 Oh, you could say what-
00:02:31.920 Here's what I'll say about freedom of speech.
00:02:33.900 We have freedom of speech, but you do not have freedom of consequences.
00:02:36.760 You can say whatever you want.
00:02:39.380 You could come back to the country.
00:02:40.840 But we have every right to boo you when we see you.
00:02:43.260 We have every right to not buy any product that you endorse, Hunter Hess.
00:02:47.540 And by the way, what he said wasn't even that bad.
00:02:51.540 The point is this.
00:02:52.780 Shut your mouth.
00:02:54.300 You have a microphone.
00:02:55.320 You're representing the United States of America, not the House of Hess.
00:03:00.340 Shut it up.
00:03:01.640 Vinny.
00:03:02.320 There was another one, too.
00:03:03.200 His name was Chris Lillis, I believe, who was sitting next to him.
00:03:06.160 And he's talking about-
00:03:06.920 Who was it, Robbie?
00:03:07.620 I have that.
00:03:08.200 Chris Willis.
00:03:09.020 Yeah.
00:03:09.220 Yeah.
00:03:09.700 Well, Rob, because I don't even want to show him.
00:03:11.780 You have Amber Glenn.
00:03:13.200 She's the LGBTQ figure skater.
00:03:16.300 She jumped in, and she attacked the country and the president.
00:03:18.560 Otherwise, just known as a figure skater.
00:03:20.060 Yeah, she basically said, Pat, that Trump is attacking the queer community, and this is
00:03:26.080 her right here.
00:03:26.760 Listen to what she's saying.
00:03:28.580 It's been a hard time for the community overall under this administration.
00:03:33.380 It isn't the first time that we've had to come together as a community and try and fight
00:03:39.220 for our human rights.
00:03:41.840 And now, especially, it's not just affecting the queer community, but many other communities.
00:03:47.920 And I think that we are able to support each other in a way that we didn't have to before.
00:03:56.720 And because of that, it's made us a lot stronger.
00:03:59.420 I hope I can use my platform and my voice throughout these games to try and encourage people to stay
00:04:06.860 strong in these hard times.
00:04:09.560 Okay, Rob, can you please stop it?
00:04:10.760 She's a perfect example of ignorance fueled by propaganda by the simple-minded left.
00:04:16.380 What is she talking about?
00:04:17.480 Bingo.
00:04:17.900 What is Trump doing wrong with the LGBT community?
00:04:21.740 You made a great statement, Adam, a little bit earlier.
00:04:24.040 He was the first president to appoint an openly gay official to the cabinet role.
00:04:28.620 And guess who the treasurer of the United States is?
00:04:31.080 Scott Besson.
00:04:31.280 Scott Besson, who's the freaking rock star.
00:04:33.660 Like, I'm despised.
00:04:35.820 These people drive me crazy, okay?
00:04:38.140 There's no other country on earth, try to name one, that's more accepting to gays and lesbians
00:04:43.060 than the LGBTQ community.
00:04:44.040 Go ahead.
00:04:44.660 The same Olympics she's at has countries that you can't be openly gay.
00:04:49.080 Don't throw your ass off of buildings and put your ass in jail.
00:04:51.880 What is she talking about?
00:04:52.840 That's real discrimination.
00:04:55.240 So it just drives me crazy.
00:04:56.640 And to the point of, again, Adam, I got to agree with you.
00:04:59.300 You're representing the United States in another country.
00:05:03.400 It drives me crazy, like, that you hate us so much that you're going to go there, embarrass
00:05:08.320 us, and embarrass the freaking flag.
00:05:11.220 Just like Gavin Newsom when he goes to Davos and he craps all over us.
00:05:15.200 I'm sick and tired of that.
00:05:16.340 That's why I love that video, Pat, of Tamira Menchestat.
00:05:21.020 That was awesome.
00:05:21.780 And you know what I realized?
00:05:22.640 You know what you guys don't ever see?
00:05:24.040 I've never seen, Adam, reporters ask any athletes from other countries about their politics.
00:05:29.560 Of course.
00:05:30.080 You ever noticed that, Tommy?
00:05:31.760 You never see a reporter, an athlete from England, hey, how do you feel about Keir Starmer
00:05:36.500 letting all the, the government letting all these girls getting raped by Pakistani rape
00:05:40.460 gangs?
00:05:40.880 Have you ever heard that?
00:05:42.060 Or Spanish athletes?
00:05:43.880 How do you guys feel about 500 Africans just brought in willy-nilly for votes?
00:05:49.220 100,000.
00:05:50.100 500,000.
00:05:51.060 How do you feel about that?
00:05:52.200 It just, it boggles my mind that it's always us.
00:05:54.700 This place gave you everything.
00:05:56.820 All the money paid for, all your sponsorship.
00:05:58.700 You, you're a rock star because of the United States of America.
00:06:02.240 I am sick and tired.
00:06:04.180 Guys, like in my soul for people crapping on this country.
00:06:07.760 Enough already.
00:06:08.640 Move to Canada.
00:06:09.680 But guess what?
00:06:10.320 They won't let you in because they have a strong ass border.
00:06:13.120 It just, Pat, it infuriates me.
00:06:15.140 This is the best.
00:06:16.340 Name another place better than us.
00:06:18.020 Go ahead.
00:06:18.660 Go ahead and try it.
00:06:19.660 You can't even, it can't even come off your lips.
00:06:22.440 Gays are treated okay.
00:06:23.760 All right?
00:06:23.980 The only thing we pissed off about is the LGBTQ.
00:06:27.280 I'm sorry, is the L.
00:06:28.660 We don't want men with penises in girls' locker rooms or sports.
00:06:31.520 The T.
00:06:31.740 That's the T, buddy.
00:06:32.660 The T's.
00:06:33.040 I'm sorry.
00:06:33.660 Whatever.
00:06:33.960 Spelling is your second language.
00:06:35.120 I get it.
00:06:35.560 There's so many letters.
00:06:36.020 L is for lesbians.
00:06:36.700 Nobody cares if you're gay.
00:06:38.260 Just keep the men out of the girls' locker rooms and out of the sports.
00:06:41.960 It's that simple.
00:06:43.140 Okay?
00:06:43.700 These athletes are spokespeople for their own ignorance.
00:06:46.120 Tom, here's what's crazy.
00:06:47.500 She is from Plano.
00:06:50.340 They homeschooled.
00:06:51.300 Her parents homeschooled her.
00:06:53.160 Mother was a fitness instructor or something like that.
00:06:56.040 And father was a cop.
00:06:57.440 Okay.
00:06:57.920 And at 20 years old, she came out saying she's bisexual, pansexual.
00:07:01.060 I don't know what pansexual is.
00:07:02.300 Pan?
00:07:02.880 Pansexual, bisexual.
00:07:03.900 She's into Peter Pan, that kind of stuff.
00:07:05.600 Yeah.
00:07:05.860 So, honestly, I don't know what pansexual is.
00:07:08.740 Me neither.
00:07:09.100 But at 20 years old.
00:07:10.060 Probably means she's fluid of something.
00:07:10.480 Okay?
00:07:11.060 And she was homeschooled.
00:07:12.960 She was homeschooled in Plano.
00:07:15.780 Plano, we lived in Plano.
00:07:17.000 For five years.
00:07:17.680 You and I know Plano.
00:07:18.660 So, Tom, go for it.
00:07:19.520 It's called social media.
00:07:19.860 So, these people are spokespeople.
00:07:21.240 I'm going to say it again.
00:07:21.880 They're spokespeople, spokesmen, spokeswomen for their own ignorance.
00:07:27.060 They are adopting the outrage.
00:07:29.940 It's like they get up in the morning and they go to Instagram and saying,
00:07:33.220 what am I supposed to be outraged about today?
00:07:35.700 I see a huge difference between these people with their weak,
00:07:40.760 and these are weak arguments.
00:07:41.980 These arguments wouldn't stand up to scrutiny.
00:07:43.540 If you had real journalists challenging what they're saying, pushing on what
00:07:47.440 they're saying, and talking about the freedoms and everything they enjoy in
00:07:50.760 the United States of America, these are nitwits.
00:07:54.060 These people, I compare them.
00:07:57.140 You want to compare them to?
00:07:58.340 I compare them to Tommy Smith.
00:08:00.320 Tommy Smith, during the civil rights situation in 1968, stood on a podium and put on a black
00:08:07.880 glove symbolizing black power and didn't wear shoes, which he said was symbolizing black
00:08:13.200 poverty, and raised his fists in the air and made a political statement at the Olympics,
00:08:18.060 and he got in trouble for it.
00:08:19.660 But he was not adopting a position.
00:08:22.100 He was an African-American that came from very, very little and personally had identified these
00:08:27.620 things.
00:08:28.120 Now, do we agree with him with what he did and how he said it?
00:08:31.160 No, but he wasn't adopting anything.
00:08:32.920 He was coming from the community versus these people wake up in the morning and decide there's
00:08:38.140 something to be outraged about, and now they're speaking in outrage.
00:08:42.460 I want a journalist to say, excuse me, where have you been hurt?
00:08:47.120 Where have you been impacted by the riots or ICE or things like this?
00:08:51.800 Or are you just being like the celebrities who make money and then select a...
00:08:56.920 It's a phenomenal point.
00:08:59.080 And Tommy Smith was the guy that did this?
00:09:01.920 Yeah, that's Tommy Smith.
00:09:02.980 I'm good with that.
00:09:03.820 And Tommy Smith was sent home and suspended from the team, and I'm not defending him,
00:09:08.800 but my point is he had identity and he had a point coming from his own experience and life.
00:09:14.820 These pinheads are just speaking up.
00:09:16.060 I just want to add one thing.
00:09:17.040 I agree with Tom on this one.
00:09:18.800 Listen, you want to make a statement when you return back to America?
00:09:24.440 Say whatever you want.
00:09:25.700 You're an American citizen.
00:09:27.340 Say good, bad, or ugly what you feel.
00:09:29.180 When you're on the global stage, you do not air America's dirty laundry to the rest of the world.
00:09:36.300 Where's the Winter Olympics?
00:09:37.980 In Italy somewhere?
00:09:39.580 Okay, Milan.
00:09:41.140 Thank you.
00:09:42.080 Honored to represent my country.
00:09:43.960 Keep it moving.
00:09:44.980 I'm actually, come to think of it, not that mad at these kids.
00:09:48.060 Who are the captains?
00:09:49.460 Who are the coaches?
00:09:50.140 Who is Team USA saying, when you win, you get your ass on there, you thank America, you thank your team, you thank your country, and you can do whatever you want when you get home.
00:10:01.580 On the global stage, you do not air our dirty laundry to the rest of the world.
00:10:05.740 What's it saying?
00:10:06.420 If you want to criticize me, we do it in private, but in public, you commend me?
00:10:12.120 They never were given that speech, clearly.
00:10:14.880 And that's why I'm upset.
00:10:15.920 Yeah, no, great point.
00:10:16.860 Can you imagine, Pat, your kids going to somebody else's house and airing out everything about your house there and then coming back home?
00:10:23.700 No, what are you nuts?
00:10:25.660 Keep it respectful.
00:10:27.260 What the hell are you going on?
00:10:28.040 And the fact that she's going to sit there and talk about her community is so hurt and the struggle, how many, first of all, Pride Month, you get an entire month, Veterans Day, we get one day, and I don't even get a discount anywhere.
00:10:42.680 Foot Locker gives us a 10% discount.
00:10:44.600 That's it.
00:10:45.080 We got to go get some shoes there.
00:10:46.140 Yeah, no, for sure.
00:10:46.760 And then how many days, Pat?
00:10:48.000 You did this about a year ago.
00:10:49.840 How many days does the LGBTQ...
00:10:51.840 Some 145.
00:10:53.680 145 days representing your people.
00:10:55.740 So you made a great point.
00:10:56.680 It's just ignorance, and she just wakes up in the morning.
00:10:59.400 She's like, what am I going to go do?
00:11:00.700 And you know her friends are like, go, you go, girl.
00:11:02.900 Go, go, go and say how bad that you have it.
00:11:05.180 You know what's so crazy about that?
00:11:05.960 They're wind-up robots that look daily to find out, what am I supposed to be outraged about today?
00:11:10.040 Yeah, exactly.
00:11:10.600 You know what's so crazy?
00:11:11.420 The tools.
00:11:12.120 Tools.
00:11:12.520 Even if you're a major, major, major winner and you accomplish all these amazing things, you can still somehow have a victim mentality.
00:11:21.340 It's crazy.
00:11:22.640 Yeah.
00:11:22.800 Look at all the opportunities that you've accomplished.
00:11:25.600 Guys.
00:11:25.820 Great things you've done.
00:11:26.980 Brainwashing works for good and bad.
00:11:28.880 Let me tell you.
00:11:30.320 Brainwashing works for good and bad.
00:11:32.240 Last week, we had our annual PHP recognition ceremony.
00:11:36.500 Shout out to Hearts.
00:11:38.000 They have an incredible job.
00:11:39.820 They're doing Chris and Messina Hart.
00:11:41.100 Phenomenal job to them.
00:11:42.260 Swazos.
00:11:43.080 Nice.
00:11:43.500 Phenomenal job.
00:11:44.460 Okafor's coming up.
00:11:45.660 Oriana's.
00:11:46.180 Okafor.
00:11:46.340 These guys are really...
00:11:47.460 Guy Tans doing the first million-point pay.
00:11:49.860 Was it Marlene?
00:11:50.860 Great stuff that I'm seeing what's going on with some of the guys here.
00:11:53.220 But you know what I explained?
00:11:55.260 Okay.
00:11:55.540 So we're going to do this to kind of show.
00:11:57.820 So you got...
00:11:58.740 In life, you got...
00:12:00.860 Everybody's a different size magnet.
00:12:03.400 When you're small, you're a small magnet.
00:12:06.120 But a small magnet is big compared to a smaller magnet.
00:12:10.240 So if I have a guy here who sells weed, does cocaine, does X, sells special K, does all
00:12:16.000 this stuff, and I got a guy here who is living the right life, going to school, wants to be
00:12:20.920 somebody, going to church, doesn't use drugs, doesn't use alcohol.
00:12:24.800 This guy's a better salesperson than this person.
00:12:27.400 He's a bigger magnet.
00:12:28.700 He's going to draw me this way, right?
00:12:30.480 And I'm going to be like, oh, my God.
00:12:32.040 Yeah, you're right.
00:12:32.600 What's the big deal?
00:12:33.220 You're only going to be young once.
00:12:34.360 Look at Elvis did it, all these other...
00:12:35.600 Everybody does it, bro.
00:12:36.900 Like, he's right.
00:12:37.940 Enjoy your life once.
00:12:39.080 What do you think your parents did when you were younger?
00:12:40.760 You think your parents were like this?
00:12:42.200 Become a Christian later on when you're in your 30s, 40s, 50s.
00:12:45.240 But live life now.
00:12:46.740 You're right.
00:12:47.500 Let's go live life now.
00:12:49.000 And this guy doesn't know how to sell.
00:12:50.820 He's just like, no, I don't want to do that.
00:12:52.780 So he doesn't know how to recruit you to this way of living.
00:12:55.240 You're going to be turned on by this.
00:12:56.840 So these kids are going places, and they don't have a clue what's going on.
00:13:01.800 If you don't have a solid foundation developed internally, emotionally, mentally, by parents,
00:13:08.560 by the right examples, and you're around that for too long, boom, a bigger magnet can attract
00:13:14.800 a smaller magnet to their way of thinking, and you lose 5, 10, 15 years of your life.
00:13:19.160 And then you look back and say, what the hell did I just do the last 15 years?
00:13:22.280 That's kind of what's happening with some of these guys.
00:13:24.320 They don't even know what they're doing.
00:13:25.340 Some of these guys don't even know what they're doing.
00:13:27.160 When you heard about that one, the transitioner had to pay $2 million, got paid $2 million.
00:13:32.820 You think when that person was a kid, they knew what it meant to transition?
00:13:37.400 No, they lost their life.
00:13:39.420 It's permanent.
00:13:41.020 Those puberty blockers destroy you.
00:13:43.520 It's permanent damage that's done to these people.
00:13:45.920 So anyways, I have no sympathy for that mindset.
00:13:49.560 But if you're older and you choose to do that and it's your choice, guess what?
00:13:53.840 That person made the decision as an adult.
00:13:56.160 The statistic when I'm looking at this on what's happening with PBD Podcast, more ladies
00:14:01.500 are starting to watch PBD Podcast, and it keeps climbing, okay?
00:14:05.780 And of course, we all know why that is.

00:14:13.620 okay?
00:14:14.000 Not so much.
