=== Parents As Homeland Security Threats (14:46) ===

[00:01:54]  In economics, we are taught about opportunity costs.
[00:01:59]  That for every decision that you make, by definition, when you allocate resources or time or your focus, that disallows you from allocating time, energy, and resources in something else.
[00:02:13]  You must choose where you dedicate your time.
[00:02:16]  A society best organized is one that respects the choices of individuals.
[00:02:21]  In economics, when you allow 330 million people to deploy their capital as they see fit, markets will solve a lot of those problems for you.
[00:02:31]  However, when you start to organize governments and you start to put together public policy, you have to come to some form of agreement of where are you going to use your time, your treasure, your energy, your resources, and your focus.
[00:02:45]  And by definition, you must make a priority.
[00:02:48]  You must make an argument of hierarchy.
[00:02:50]  This is one of the reasons why we have been so against setting $40 billion to Ukraine without an inspector general, without any sort of oversight at all whatsoever, while we have so many problems here domestically, open border,
[00:03:04]  where we have rising crime, where we have a baby formula shortage, inflation, that the backwards, upside-down priorities of the American regime ruling class show that the opportunity cost of further intervention abroad is damaging to the well-being of a country.
[00:03:26]  And so you must choose where you dedicate your time.
[00:03:29]  So the federal government has a national police force.
[00:03:33]  The national police force is involved in very specific types of criminal investigations, largely involving interstate crime.
[00:03:43]  And that is, of course, called the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
[00:03:46]  Now, the FBI is somewhat of a new creation in historical terms.
[00:03:50]  For the first hundred plus years of America, there was really no FBI.
[00:03:54]  The Secret Service was the closest thing to it.
[00:03:57]  Would police counterfeit currency or interstate crime.
[00:04:02]  The FBI, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, which they say it stands for Fidelity, Bravery, and Integrity, really came to be because of bank robberies, interstate bank robberies, and local sheriffs or local police departments' inability to be able to investigate these sort of police robberies and interstate crimes.
[00:04:22]  Then counterfeit currency started to come across.
[00:04:25]  And of course, the very famous and very complicated, I'll be nice today, cross-dresser J. Edgar Hoover came up with an incredible breakthrough in criminal investigation, which was to popularize fingerprint technology, which was that we are going to be able to use fingerprint technology and be able to find criminals in the act of crimes, not in the act, but after the act of crimes and investigate them.
[00:04:54]  And the FBI was largely a kind of national police project out of this idea that we can now use this new technology to be able to hold people accountable and to be able to investigate them and then to be able to arrest them.
[00:05:10]  The Federal Bureau of Investigation over the last 40 or 50 years has been rife with corruption, from being weaponized by Bobby Kennedy when he was Attorney General and his brother was President John F. Kennedy and investigating Martin Luther King Jr.,
[00:05:25]  from tampering with evidence to the highly suspicious activities of the Federal Bureau of Investigation in the 1990s, of what happened in Waco and what happened in many other different places as far as not actually following leads and not arresting suspects early when the evidence was overwhelming that resulted in widespread crime or tragedy.
[00:05:49]  Now, that's not to say that everything the FBI has done is wrong or incorrect.
[00:05:53]  They've arrested some pretty significant scumbags over the last 20 or 30 years, drug traffickers, child sex traffickers, some of the worst people in society.
[00:06:02]  However, within the culture of the FBI seems to be this idea that we're going to be able to use the power and the apparatus of the Federal Bureau of Investigation on the margins to be able to implement a political agenda.
[00:06:18]  Now, this is one of the best arguments for small and limited government.
[00:06:23]  One of the best arguments for small and limited government is that despite what you think government should do, despite what you think it can do, is that what government will end up doing is end up being the guys with the guns to protect and to, let's say, enforce the needs, wants, and concerns of the most powerful.
[00:06:46]  Now, we saw this in 2016 when the Federal Bureau of Investigation spied on Donald Trump and lied about it all the way from James Comey to Andrew McCabe to Peter Strzok, from Lisa Page, all throughout our federal government.
[00:07:05]  There was widespread corruption to use the power of the FBI to actually go against political opponents.
[00:07:13]  We know that the FBI sent 15 agents to investigate a rope poll in Bubba Wallace's NASCAR garage.
[00:07:21]  We know the FBI sent 29 agents, including people with helicopter support and in they were literally wearing like full like regalia of dive gear to go arrest Roger Stone.
[00:07:39]  And so the FBI has had a mission creep for quite some time.
[00:07:44]  And this is something that we as conservatives have been trying to warn against.
[00:07:47]  We've been trying to tell people saying that the FBI has lost its focus is just trying to be, you know, full of fidelity, bravery, and integrity and trying to protect the American people.
[00:07:59]  And it's more about kind of protecting the Democrat Party.
[00:08:03]  The FBI raided James O'Keefe's home.
[00:08:06]  The FBI raided Rudy Giuliani's home.
[00:08:11]  And yet the FBI hasn't been doing the most basic things they should be doing.
[00:08:18]  You know, a lot of people are talking about this tragedy in Buffalo.
[00:08:21]  It's terrible.
[00:08:21]  It's awful.
[00:08:22]  No one likes to see it.
[00:08:24]  Now, the media is quick to try to hyper-racialize and politicize what's happening in Buffalo.
[00:08:29]  We're not going to do that.
[00:08:31]  I think it's disgusting when people try to racialize and politicize suffering.
[00:08:36]  We didn't do that in Waukesha when a black activist on a Christmas parade ran over innocent people in a Christmas celebration, and we all just kind of forgot about that.
[00:08:52]  So we're not going to do that now, and we didn't do that then.
[00:08:55]  But instead, it begs the question: which is, did the FBI have any notice that this person in Buffalo, and we don't use the shooters' names, just as a rule, we don't want to try to make them more famous or further incentivize the quote-unquote fame that you get from committing awful tragedies, which is, did the FBI know about this?
[00:09:21]  And the evidence is actually showing yes.
[00:09:24]  The evidence is showing that there is plenty of warnings ahead of the Buffalo mass shooter.
[00:09:32]  He underwent a mental health evaluation.
[00:09:35]  He was previously thought to be threatening at his high school last June.
[00:09:42]  The Buffalo shooting suspect wrote of his plans five months ago.
[00:09:46]  And in fact, there's evidence to show that an FBI agent had responded to a question about his future plans saying that he wanted to commit a murder-suicide.
[00:09:59]  So the FBI knew about this, and the FBI did not intervene.
[00:10:03]  What was the FBI doing instead?
[00:10:04]  Well, we actually know, and that's where the opportunity cost argument comes.
[00:10:09]  You must prioritize what matters to you.
[00:10:11]  And the FBI has been prioritizing not potential mass shootings, child sex trafficking, drugs in our communities, but no, the evidence shows that the FBI has made it a top priority of the Bureau to make sure that parents don't know about their children's education.
[00:10:29]  So what has the Federal Bureau of Investigation been focused on?
[00:10:33]  Certainly not preventing mass shootings.
[00:10:36]  They investigated the Orlando mass shooter, the pulse shooter, and found no reason to continue their investigation, resulted in many people dead.
[00:10:48]  New Mexico man, a couple years ago, convinced the FBI he was not a threat, and then he carried out a school shooting.
[00:10:55]  So the Federal Bureau of Investigation has pivoted.
[00:10:57]  They've pivoted from kind of trying to prevent mass shootings.
[00:11:00]  And, you know, it's one thing that there's 100,000 plus drug overdoses in our country, something the FBI actually should be focused on, drug busts and interstate crime.
[00:11:09]  But no, the Bureau has now made it a top priority and a concern to treat parents the same way that they would treat ISIS.
[00:11:19]  You see, parents reclaiming the mantle of education, parents actually getting involved on the grassroots level of how their children are educated, is considered to be a homeland security threat to the Democrat Party.
[00:11:34]  You see, if parents do get involved in their children's education, if parents do get involved in homeschooling, then actually does jeopardize a lot of the plans of Eric Swalwell and Elon Omar and AOC.
[00:11:46]  You see, the Democrat bet that they have made, the Democrat gamble, I should say, is that enough people will believe insane things because they've gone through broken institutions.
[00:12:01]  You see, when people go away from the institutions and they live a normal life, they find these ideas that are put forward in critical race theory or in postmodernist deconstructionist theory or Jacques Derrida or Michelle Foucault or any one of the Spinoza or Derek Bell or Kimberly Crenshaw or any one of these ridiculous theorists that your children are learning about in elementary school is the more,
[00:12:26]  let's say, independent you are in your education, the more disconnected you are from these ideas, the more conservative the country actually becomes.
[00:12:35]  And so the people in charge, Pelosi and Schumer, Obama and Jarrett, all these people, both in government and outside of government, they know they can't have parents get too involved in education.
[00:12:46]  That would be a big problem.
[00:12:48]  Parents getting involved in their children's education is a fire alarm for the Democrat Party.
[00:12:56]  And so what is the plan?
[00:12:58]  Well, Democrats could try to convince people that public schools are actually great.
[00:13:03]  They could use dialogue, dialogos through logic.
[00:13:09]  But why do that when you just have the guys with the guns?
[00:13:13]  I mean, just go send in the FBI.
[00:13:16]  Why would you actually try to improve schools or listen to parents' concerns when you have the federal Bureau of Investigation?
[00:13:23]  That is exactly what has happened.
[00:13:25]  Now, we warned against this last fall.
[00:13:28]  We warned in great detail about how Merrick Garland was likely lying under oath.
[00:13:34]  We warned about how Merrick Garland, it's cut 35.
[00:13:37]  This is Merrick Garland.
[00:13:38]  I mean, he's such a weak, pathetic person.
[00:13:41]  He's a craven individual.
[00:13:44]  Honestly, one of the great things Mitch McConnell has ever done for our republic is making sure that this person never went on the U.S. Supreme Court.
[00:13:51]  It was Mitch.
[00:13:52]  He deserves credit for this.
[00:13:53]  Play cut 35.
[00:13:54]  I can't imagine any circumstance in which the Patriot Act would be used in the circumstances of parents complaining about their children, nor can I imagine a circumstance where they would be labeled as domestic terrorism.
[00:14:10]  And now we know because of an FBI whistleblower which came out recently, just the last couple days, that the Federal Bureau of Investigation has been using threat assessment tags, and they have been investigating parents for showing up to school board meetings.
[00:14:27]  That the federal government and the federal Bureau of Investigation, while there's the mass shooting in Buffalo that very well could have been prevented with proper investigation and proper intervention, no, they've been too busy spying on moms.
[00:14:40]  And now we know about some of these moms now, thanks to an FBI whistleblower.
[00:14:44]  And I guarantee you this, that the Biden regime is going to spend more time and energy actually trying to find the leaker of the person who blew the whistle in the FBI than actually trying to fix the fact that parents are now being treated like the Taliban.
[00:14:58]  In fact, the Taliban is actually being treated better than parents.
[00:15:02]  Let me say that again.
[00:15:03]  The Taliban is being treated with more diplomatic respect than moms and dads that show up at school board meetings across the country.
[00:15:10]  Why?
[00:15:11]  It's because if parents reclaim the mantle of education in America, the Democrat Party becomes less powerful.
[00:15:18]  The Democrats know that as soon as education goes back to its classical roots, as soon as education goes back, it de-radicalizes, that they may never win another national election again.

=== Holding Fauci Accountable In Congress (12:55) ===

[00:16:41]  But far too often, they're not.
[00:16:44]  If we had more members of Congress like Congressman Jim Jordan, the FBI would not be doing any of this garbage.
[00:16:50]  Instead, the FBI has kind of become the Praetorian Guard and the deployable army of the Democrat Party.
[00:16:57]  And I don't want to live in that country, and you don't either.
[00:16:59]  You do not want to live in the country where the National Police Force is doing the enforcement, let's say, wishes of a major American political party.
[00:17:08]  With us right now is the author of the terrific book, Do What You Said You Were Going to Do, and someone that, God willing, when we take back the House in November, will have a lot of power because he deserves it.
[00:17:20]  Congressman Jim Jordan, welcome back to the program.
[00:17:22]  Good to be with you, Charlie.
[00:17:24]  So, Jim, just walk us through this story.
[00:17:27]  You beautifully articulated this on the great one, Mark Levin's radio program.
[00:17:30]  I actually caught it in the car last week about moms for liberty, these threat tags at the FBI.
[00:17:37]  Walk us through it.
[00:17:38]  Yeah.
[00:17:39]  Well, because of some brave whistleblowers that came forward and told us that more than two dozen cases where parents have actually had the designation, the label, the threat tag moniker, whatever you want to call it, put on their name and been investigated.
[00:17:53]  And we highlighted three of those examples in the letter we sent to the Justice Department and the ones you just mentioned.
[00:17:59]  One was a mom in the group Moms for Liberty who happened to own a firearm, which, again, you're allowed to do under our Constitution, under the Second Amendment.
[00:18:07]  And because of all that, she was reported on the line that the Attorney General had set up this, I call it the snitch line, but the dedicated line of communication for threat reporting, as he framed it in his memo.
[00:18:18]  She was reported on that.
[00:18:19]  The FBI was investigated.
[00:18:21]  Now, thank goodness she wasn't charged with anything, but just the fact that the FBI is coming to talk to a mom.
[00:18:27]  And her thing was, we're coming for you, is what she said.
[00:18:30]  What she meant was, we're coming for you guys in the next school board election, for goodness sake.
[00:18:34]  There was even one case where the person who filed the complaint on the snitch line, when that person was interviewed by the FBI, they said, well, we really didn't, there weren't any threats.
[00:18:46]  There was no real concern about a crime.
[00:18:48]  We just knew that there was a threat tag.
[00:18:49]  We didn't like what this guy was because we think he's a bad guy potentially.
[00:18:52]  And they filed a complaint.
[00:18:54]  So this is how ridiculous it has gotten under the Joe Biden Justice Department.
[00:18:59]  Yeah, I mean, is there a threat?
[00:19:01]  Is there a snitch line for Lori Lightfoot who says that we have to have a call to arms?
[00:19:04]  Because, I mean, I'd love to call in, like, hello, FBI.
[00:19:08]  Can you please investigate the mayor of Chicago for saying that we need to have a call to arms?
[00:19:12]  I mean, so how deep does this go, I suppose, is my first question.
[00:19:17]  I mean, the whistleblower, God bless this person.
[00:19:20]  How deep does this go?
[00:19:21]  Yeah, well, yeah, well, go back to when it started and understand.
[00:19:25]  I call it the speed and intensity with which they put this together.
[00:19:29]  So, September 29th, last fall, the National School Boards Association, a left-wing political group, sends a letter to the Biden White House.
[00:19:36]  The letter says, use the Patriot Act to go after moms and dads.
[00:19:38]  The domestic terrorism, counterterrorism measures to go after moms and dads.
[00:19:42]  Five days later, the attorney general of the United States issues a memorandum to every single U.S. attorney in this country saying, Set up this dedicated line of threat communication, do this and that.
[00:19:51]  And it spells it out in the memorandum.
[00:19:53]  And then 16 days later, the FBI sends out an email to agents across the country and says, put this threat tag designation, this threat table, threat tag label, put this on parents you're investigating.
[00:20:08]  All that happens, Charlie, in 22 days.
[00:20:10]  And sort of the first question you ask is, when have you ever seen the federal government move that fast?
[00:20:16]  It never does.
[00:20:17]  But when it comes to killing speech, think and that very apparatus that they set up was what was in fact used to go after these parents.
[00:20:26]  And the examples that the whistleblowers who came to us said, we've had it.
[00:20:30]  We want to show you exactly what's happening.
[00:20:32]  It's just like you all predicted was going to happen when you had the hearing with the Attorney General last fall.
[00:20:38]  Well, and it seems like he lied under oath.
[00:20:40]  The only way he'd be able to escape it is through some sort of kind of linguistic gymnastics where he said, well, I can't imagine that we would ever use this power to be able to do it.
[00:20:50]  Now, saying I can't imagine, I mean, that's as close to lying under oath as one could possibly come to.
[00:20:58]  So, Congressman, we take back the House in November.
[00:21:01]  That looks to be increasingly likely that people are really upset.
[00:21:05]  What could be done about this, especially with UN leadership?
[00:21:10]  I mean, can we impeach Merrick Garland?
[00:21:12]  Is that in the cards?
[00:21:13]  I mean, please.
[00:21:15]  No, good question.
[00:21:17]  At a minimum, we need him back testifying, answering the questions, answering for what he said when, you know, last fall when he said he would not use the counterterrorism, anti-terrorism measures of the United States to go after moms and dad.
[00:21:28]  Well, that looks like exactly what took place in the situation that the whistleblowers told us about.
[00:21:33]  So we can have him back in front of the committee.
[00:21:35]  As far as the question of impeachment, whether it's Joe Biden, whether it's Secretary of Mayorkas over Homeland Security, who set up the Disinformation Governance Board, who's opened up our borders and is doing it intentionally, or the Attorney General, I think those are questions that the entire Republican Conference has going to have to figure out as a group.
[00:21:51]  You can't just go run off and do something of that magnitude.
[00:21:55]  But I will tell you, particularly with my orchestra, Charlie, and you know this, you've talked a lot about this issue.
[00:22:00]  You know that what's going on in our border is intentional.
[00:22:03]  There is a plan to systematically allow people to come across our border and not enforce our laws because we just set a record in March.
[00:22:11]  Guess what?
[00:22:11]  We just got the numbers yesterday.
[00:22:12]  That record was broken in April.
[00:22:14]  230-some thousand now.
[00:22:16]  Record number of illegal immigrants coming across our southern border.
[00:22:19]  So that is certainly one that I think warrants consideration of impeachment, if in fact the American people put us in the majority.
[00:22:26]  Yeah, I mean, and so the executive branch, by law, has to implement laws whether they like them or not.
[00:22:34]  But it seems like we're in this new era of like selective enforcement and just kind of not enforcing what they don't like.
[00:22:42]  And we see this with immigration in particular.
[00:22:46]  And, you know, the courts have kind of been passive on this because of kind of legal technicalities, if you will, because the executive branch says, oh, no, we're doing fine.
[00:22:55]  And, you know, we still have some agents here and there.
[00:22:58]  And I mean, you've been down to the border many times, Congressman.
[00:23:01]  I mean, I live in Arizona.
[00:23:02]  When I go down to Yuma, when I go to Nihalis, when I go down there, I mean, it's an invasion, and it could be fixed, and it could be actually up, you know, fixed, fixed, I guess, the right term, really quickly.
[00:23:17]  So Title 42 is in the cards.
[00:23:18]  What are you hearing about that?
[00:23:20]  Do you think that Biden is going to go through with that?
[00:23:23]  I do.
[00:23:24]  I do.
[00:23:24]  I mean, Gotzi testified today and said that he thinks that was the right move.
[00:23:28]  So, you know, One of the things that, if you step back and think about this, and we talked about this before as well, but this idea that the quote experts run the country, not the people who go put their name on the ballot, run for office, and get elected to the United States Congress.
[00:23:42]  They don't make the decisions anymore.
[00:23:43]  It's the quote experts.
[00:23:45]  It's Maorca.
[00:23:46]  It's Fauci.
[00:23:47]  It's Garland.
[00:23:48]  And some of those people, like Fauci, weren't even Senate confirmed.
[00:23:52]  But yet he had so much impact on our lives.
[00:23:54]  And he's testifying today, saying, Yeah, go ahead and get rid of Title 42, which is going to make an already chaotic situation on our border that much worse.
[00:24:02]  So that to me is one of the things that I think the American people are going to show up in a big way.
[00:24:06]  And I do think we're going to get the majority back.
[00:24:08]  And I think part of what's driving them, certainly it's inflation, the bordering, and crime, and all these other issues.
[00:24:13]  And I agree how bad those are, but it's this idea that these quote experts are here running things and aren't looking out for the interests of moms and dads and families across this country.
[00:24:21]  Yeah, and that's against everything that you and I love about the Constitution, which is kind of this unelected, you know, no connection to the people, consent to the governed, you know, kind of violating the promise of consent to the governed of this kind of group of supreme specialists where they are above us.
[00:24:38]  They're in the clouds.
[00:24:38]  They know better than us.
[00:24:40]  And so what can be actually technically done then to restore that check and balance?
[00:24:46]  Because a lot of people, I'll be honest, Congressman, they're really cynical.
[00:24:50]  They say, oh, I mean, how are we ever going to be able to hold someone like Fauci accountable or any one of these people?
[00:24:56]  I mean, give us some hope here of, okay, we restore power back to Republicans.
[00:25:01]  What does some success look like?
[00:25:02]  How do we put points on the board?
[00:25:03]  Because you were right there in the trenches during the Lois Learner fight.
[00:25:06]  She still has her pension.
[00:25:07]  I mean, it's almost like nothing happened.
[00:25:09]  Well, one thing you do is you make sure the American people get all the facts.
[00:25:13]  They get the full story.
[00:25:14]  They get the truth, which right now the Democrats, I think, are in many ways trying to keep that from the American people.
[00:25:19]  So we do the investigation and the American people get the truth.
[00:25:23]  If, in fact, they give us back the majority in the Congress, then we have to focus on the appropriations process and making some gains and wins there for these agencies that are abusing their power.
[00:25:32]  And then the best news we've heard in the last 24 hours is Dr. Fauci said: if President Trump runs and wins re-election, he's going to leave government.
[00:25:38]  I think that one more, one more of the many reasons why we want President Trump to run and win.
[00:25:43]  So when President Trump gets it back in office in January 2025, they should fire anyone and everyone that's permitted to fire.
[00:25:51]  And frankly, they should probably fire some people they're not allowed to fire and make them sue them just to prove the point.
[00:25:56]  And so we're going to have the people elected by we, the people in this country, make decisions.
[00:26:02]  So in closing, you were subpoenaed by this January 6th committee where the minority first time ever has not even been allowed to place members on the committee.
[00:26:12]  Kevin McCarthy was subpoenaed as well.
[00:26:14]  It doesn't seem like they're stopping at all.
[00:26:16]  It seems like the Democrats are accelerating their hyper-partisan abuse of power.
[00:26:23]  How do we actually, I'm really worried about the country when this continues.
[00:26:28]  I mean, there's really no good way this ends.
[00:26:31]  I mean, Mark Levin, when you were on his program, he said it, and I was cheering in the car.
[00:26:35]  We said they have to learn that the sword swings the other way.
[00:26:38]  I mean, is that something that's in the cards where they have to realize that, you know, you just can't keep on treating us like this without you guys having to pay the price as well?
[00:26:46]  What are your thoughts on that?
[00:26:48]  Yeah.
[00:26:48]  No, I agree.
[00:26:49]  The only, I mean, look, it's good for the goose, it's good for the gander, to use it per se, or maybe even more appropriate, the only way to deal with the bully is to punch them right back in the nose.
[00:26:58]  So we'll see how this all shakes out.
[00:27:00]  What I do know is they always talk about democracy, but understand the Democrats are the party that has kicked Republicans off the committee, won't let Republicans for the first time, as you mentioned, Trevor, serve on the select committee.
[00:27:09]  They have enacted proxy voting.
[00:27:10]  They have closed the capital.
[00:27:11]  They're trying to end the thrill of bus.
[00:27:13]  They're trying to end the electoral college.
[00:27:14]  And on and on we could go.
[00:27:16]  And with respect to this particular committee, they have doctored evidence, lied about it to the American people in a text message that I sent to them.
[00:27:24]  So that's what they're up to.
[00:27:25]  And as you say, they just keep pushing.
[00:27:28]  So, at some point, someone's going to have to push back.
[00:27:30]  And again, if the American people put us in the majority, we'll be looking to ways to do that.
[00:27:36]  Do what you said you're going to do.
[00:27:37]  Tell us about your book and how people can find it.
[00:27:41]  Well, I vote every word of it.
[00:27:43]  The title speaks for itself.
[00:27:44]  When you get in office, you should do what you told the voters you were going to do.
[00:27:47]  No one did that better than President Trump.
[00:27:48]  And I write a lot about my interactions I had with President Trump through impeachment and some of the big fights we've had here on Capitol Hill over the years, big investigations.
[00:27:59]  I try to take the reader behind the scenes so they can kind of feel what it's like.
[00:28:05]  And I think it's an easy read, 250-some pages, I think.
[00:28:09]  And I think your listeners will enjoy it.
[00:28:11]  Well, keep up the great work.
[00:28:12]  And one of the reasons why we need to take back the house is because of people like you.
[00:28:17]  There's plenty of rhinos I can't stand.
[00:28:19]  But when I say, hey, you know what?
[00:28:20]  Jim Jordan is going to be in leadership and have investigative and subpoena power, that's a reason to show up.
[00:28:25]  I mean it.
[00:28:26]  So thank you so much, Congressman, for joining us.
[00:28:27]  We deeply appreciate it.
[00:28:28]  Thank you.

[00:29:32]  Let's go to a cut here.
[00:29:35]  Cut 43.

=== Spying On Questioning Parents (03:17) ===

[00:29:36]  This is the mom that was spied on by the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
[00:29:41]  This mom right here is a bigger threat to the country, according to the FBI, than some potential mass shooters.
[00:29:50]  Play Cut 43.
[00:29:51]  Fundamental rights to their children.
[00:29:54]  Those rights were not given to us by the government, and the government cannot take those rights away.
[00:29:58]  We believe that one of the most important things that you can do in America is have your voice heard by your local representatives.
[00:30:04]  So this does not deter us from our mission or our course.
[00:30:07]  Our moms are a threat to the education establishment.
[00:30:12]  And that's what we've seen very, very clearly.
[00:30:14]  We've seen citizen input being stifled in many different ways from shutting down citizen input from three to one minute or making us turn our t-shirts inside out, Greg.
[00:30:25]  So, you know, we'll just keep on doing what we do, which is standing up for our kids.
[00:30:29]  This is the co-founder of Moms for Liberty, Tiffany Justice.
[00:30:33]  They're doing a great job.
[00:30:34]  It's momsforliberty.org.
[00:30:37]  She's such a threat because she shows up to school board meetings that not local police, not the local sheriff, no, the FBI is spying on her, surveilling her, looking at her movements, what she might be planning, as if she's Timothy McVeigh, that she's going to show up to a school board meeting with a pipe bomb.
[00:30:57]  Meanwhile, you have people that are already within the FBI database, like the Buffalo shooter, like previously the Pulse shooter, like the Marjorie Stoneland Douglas shooter.
[00:31:08]  Remember that entire tragedy, Parkland, Florida?
[00:31:12]  Where post-MSD, post-Parkland, Florida, we had all of these young activists, and our entire national conversation was pivoted towards gun control for weeks and months.
[00:31:24]  And we were right there in the smack dab middle of that.
[00:31:27]  I could write a book about all that.
[00:31:29]  The FBI had warnings about that person and didn't do anything about it.
[00:31:35]  But the FBI is now saying that the focus of their work, directed by the Attorney General of the United States, is parents who care about education.
[00:31:48]  Look, the education system for quite some time has been more focused on creating an elite group of presumptuous specialists.
[00:31:57]  Parents do not want their children to become arrogant, hyper-technocratic, secular, soulless specialists.
[00:32:07]  They want the education that they once had, at least one that attempts and might fail at times to be rooted in tradition, wisdom, virtue, and teaching what is good, beautiful, true, and courageous.
[00:32:20]  Parents want that for their children.
[00:32:22]  And how does their government respond?
[00:32:25]  That they're a terrorist.
[00:32:26]  And so, as Biden goes to Buffalo and tries to politicize the tragedy, the only operative question is: where was the FBI?
[00:32:34]  Why didn't they stop it?
[00:32:35]  Answer: Spying on you and your children if you dare question curriculum.
