Text
you you
you good evening guys and welcome to
another awesome episode of triggered I hope you guys all had incredible Fourth of July.
I hope you enjoyed celebrating this incredible nation with your families and friends.
I know we did, so excited about this one.
A lot has happened in the last couple of days.
I pre-recorded on Monday, so just a lot going on.
We're joined today by my good friend, Texas Congressman Navy Admiral Dr.
White House doctor, Ronnie Jackson.
Congressman Jackson served in the Navy and was a White House physician to both Presidents Obama and Trump.
and we're going to be talking to Congressman Jackson about the woke, pronoun-obsessed military
under Joe Biden and the disturbing direction it's taking Biden's worsening cognitive decline
and all the rest of the far-left lunacy that's out there driving the country off of a cliff.
You saw the CDC guidelines on chest feeding. You know, we'll also probably talk a little bit about,
let's just say, cocaine in the White House and how, uh...
I'm literally wondering how anyone thinks it's anyone other than Hunter.
Can we please stop pretending?
I saw half of Twitter was trying to blame it on me, and I haven't even been in the building in three years.
Hunter's there all the time and happened to be there that weekend.
It's in a secure spot.
Congressman Jackson knows the area intimately.
If my sources are correct, and let's just say I know quite a few people from the Secret Service, Congressman Jackson also serves on the House Armed Services Committee and has been trying to do everything he can to right the ship, which is... In my opinion, upside down at the moment.
So make sure you guys are liking and subscribing to these episodes so you never miss one, so that other people see it.
That's how the algorithm works.
We're up against a lot, man, between big tech and the insanity.
We'll probably talk a little bit about this.
Meta launched its Threads app sort of there.
There, Twitter. It's going to be the Twitter killer.
You know, I was marked as someone to be watched.
I guess don't follow me because of the stuff that I put out there within about three minutes of my first post.
So I imagine that's going about as well as the leftists had hoped.
We'll also get Congressman Jackson coming up.
But before we get there, there's been a huge victory against censorship and the fake news journalists who claim But they're lying.
To be defenders of the First Amendment.
And they are not happy about it, folks.
A federal judge in Louisiana made the most patriotic of rulings on July 4th.
Judge Terry Doty issued a preliminary injunction blocking the federal government from meeting or contacting social media companies for the purpose of, quote, Pressuring or inducing any manner the removal, deletion, suppression, or reduction of content containing protected free speech.
I wonder why the government would be doing that in the first place.
I wonder who they would be targeting throughout all of that.
Who could object to that?
It's very reasonable.
It's literally the First Amendment.
It's the first thing our founding fathers wanted to do, and yet the Democrats and big government...
Frankly, probably the Uni Party, have weaponized everything possible against that very notion of free speech.
It's very reasonable and simple.
The government shouldn't censor free speech.
It's kind of a bedrock principle of our republic, folks.
I know they don't believe that.
I know they don't want that.
I know they'd love to get rid of all of those amendments, especially the pesky Second Amendment.
Alas, we have judges that actually still believe in the Constitution.
It's gonna slow down their attempt to take over this country.
We gotta keep fighting.
This ruling came in response to a lawsuit from Missouri and Louisiana over the Biden administration pressuring Facebook, Twitter, YouTube to censor content.
The lawsuit, for example, revealed that there were weekly meetings, weekly, Between the CDC and Facebook to combat misinformation!
And of course, the censorship extended to interfering in the 2020 election.
Mark Zuckerberg famously admitted, I believe he testified that, or said it on Joe Rogan, that the FBI stepped in to censor the Hunter Biden laptop.
How do you guys handle things when they're a big news item that's controversial?
Like there was a lot of attention on Twitter during the election because of the Hunter Biden laptop story, the New York Post.
Yeah, so you guys censored that as well?
So we took a different path than Twitter.
I mean, basically the background here is the FBI, I think, basically came to us, some folks on our team, and was like, hey, just so you know, you should be on high alert.
We thought that there was a lot of Russian propaganda in the 2016 election.
We have it on notice that basically there's about to be some kind of dump that's similar to that.
So just be vigilant.
Guys, that's why the media is shocked by this ruling?
Here's CNN, completely shocked about it.
Completely shocked about the notion of having free speech.
Completely shocked that the government, we all know now, the Hunter Biden laptop is real.
It always was.
And all of the 51 intelligence agents that signed this thing, they knew it too.
They just didn't care.
So the people...
That are knowingly lying to you are upset that they won't have the ability, according to this ruling, to continue to lie, to perpetuate something they know is a lie, to get you to do what they want, even if it's based on false information.
Huh. I'm shocked.
Check out CNN losing their mind.
But this judge was confirmed 98 to 0 by the Senate just reading the words in this injunction a quote massive effort
by the Defendants to suppress speech based on content
Those are the judge's words calling the present case quote arguably involves the most massive attack against free
speech in the United States history Ellie
It's a dramatic decision by this judge.
If you read through it, he's citing to literature and George Washington and Ben Franklin.
Here's what really is astonishing to me.
This is a conservative ideology that clearly comes through in this history.
It's a conservative political ideology, right?
We saw some of the quotes questioning vaccines, questioning masks, conservative talking points.
But the ruling itself is the opposite of judicial conservatism.
This is one of the most aggressive, far-reaching rulings you'll ever see.
What this judge is purporting to do is to micromanage, really, the day-to-day interactions between essentially the entire executive branch, all these agencies that are listed as defendants, and the leading social media companies.
In the actual temporary injunction, the judge basically says, you're not allowed, administration, to talk to these social media companies about any protected free speech except for cybersecurity threats, national security threats, criminal threats.
But where's the line?
Who's going to police this?
Yeah, they should just be able to block anything that the government wouldn't want out there, right?
I mean, think about it.
Yeah, it's a conservative ideology, free speech.
It is at this point, because the lefts don't want it.
They want the hive mindset of the radical leftists.
That has to be the gospel, and if you question that, you are to be censored.
Here's another example.
The New York Times front page headline quote, disinformation versus free speech, a new frontier.
Really? Disinformation versus new...free speech?
I don't know, guys.
I think anyone who's been watching this show, the conspiracy theorists have been batting a lot higher percentage than, uh...
The highly educated people in the mainstream media, the people who follow the science, they never followed the science.
That was all bullshit. That's been proven.
Wuhan lab leak theory, the efficacy of masks.
We could go on and on for hours about the lies that we were forced to believe.
If you questioned them, you were deplatformed.
If you were in academia, you lost tenure.
If you were in medicine, you were a pariah.
You were a pariah, but you were right, but that doesn't matter.
It's apparently a new frontier to protect free speech online.
It's amazing. If this ruling stands, it means that the Democrats will no longer be able to collude with their buddies in Silicon Valley to assert power and silence their opposition.
That's what they want, guys.
They know that big tech is like 99% liberal.
They want to be able to pick up the phone and be like, I don't like what they're saying here.
Make it go away, you know?
Whether it's, you know, the Hunter laptop, the Ashley Biden diary, all of these things that if you reversed it and it was the Don Jr.
one or the Ivanka one would be front and center, okay?
They want that double standard to exist and they want to be the enforcers of it.
Big tech has been used as an arm of the Democrat Party to interfere in elections.
We know that now.
But the people that have been screeching about democracy for the last few years, they're awfully silent about it because it went their way.
They don't care about democracy.
They care about putting their people in charge.
Getting rid of your free will and installing their puppets like Joe Biden.
It's the most powerful tool the Democrats frankly have because they ain't winning on policy.
They're not winning on common sense.
No one's going to call Joe Biden a great orator.
He's winning over the people's hearts and minds.
No, no, no. He'd bribe them with something that was never going to happen, like their college loans.
And then it's a right-wing theory to not have other people paying for someone's education so that they can get a freebie.
I mean, this is today's Democrat Party.
Google is the most powerful News outlet out there.
It can destroy a news outlet by burying them in the search results.
Look at what they've done repeatedly to so many conservative publications.
You notice how that never happens to the leftist publications?
No matter how vile, no matter how big their lies, no matter how big their discredit, they'll still pop right up in there in the first page on search.
No problem. In July 2020, Breitbart News published data showing that its Google search visibility was down 99% compared to the same period in 2016.
99%! Think about that, guys.
You had someone that was effective.
They didn't find any lies, it seems.
They just said, we're gonna make sure that you never hear about them.
That's why, even with incredibly low ratings, CNN and an article that they do still pop up when you search anything.
Almost... Exclusively on the first page.
They didn't want a repeat of the 2016 Trump victory.
So, anyone that could spread that viewpoint, even if it's right, is going to be relegated to obscurity.
Without this censorship, the Democrats can't govern because their main strategy is to hide the truth.
For example, Joe Biden actually left his basement To go out there and try to tout what he calls Bidenomics.
Think about that, folks.
Bidenomics. I can't think of a single economic metric where we are better off than we were in 2016.
Yet, seriously, Joe Biden is out there, has somehow convinced himself that he should brag about the Biden economy.
Check this out. Guess what?
Bidenomics is working.
You can only have a strategy this divorced from reality when you know that you can use your sensors in Silicon Valley to shut down the truth.
Again, just look at what's going on.
The bank collapses.
Everything around us.
Like, no one can say that that's real, but...
The people on CNN will say it's real, they'll put it up there, Google will put it in the first pages of the search, and people will actually believe that it's true.
Now, if a billionaire son, myself, can go to a grocery store and say, oh my god, I can't believe these prices are high, imagine what the rest of America is feeling, and yet they're going to be beaten to death with the notion that, no, no, no, you have it really good right now because of Joe Biden.
Or you can use the far-left woke agenda so your military can brag about its overweight transgender officers when they know the censorship regime will shut down criticism as hate speech.
Watch this one. I'm Major Rachel Jones and what Pride means to me is celebrating that diversity is our strength as a nation and as an army.
Pride means something very special to me as a LGBTQ individual and it's a chance to show everyone What we have to offer in terms of the diverse skill sets that we bring and the diverse ways of thinking we bring into the team to make everything work better.
Yeah, we keep hearing that, you know, diversity is our strength in our military, but no one can actually explain how.
You know, I'll be criticized, but like, do you think she is helping a recruitment Do you think she'll do great on the front lines?
Do you think she could pass the military physical fitness standards as a man?
A biological man?
I don't know, man. I'm asking a question because I imagine no.
There's a reason.
I saw stats today like something like 80-something percent of the country couldn't do those things anymore.
Because we're letting ourselves become weak, fat slobs.
And the military seems to be leading the way with this one.
Ask yourself, does this seem like a military that's focused on readiness?
Taking on Russia or China.
Is it a military that's focused on actually winning wars?
I don't think so, folks.
But it gets even worse.
Because the quote-unquote experts over at the CDC can go around saying that biological men can breastfeed.
Which they are.
Guys, I feel like I'm getting punked every day.
As I prep for this show, I feel like I'm being punked on a daily basis.
I'm waiting for fucking Ashton Kutcher to jump out of a wedding cake and be like, dude, you're just the star of the Truman Show.
Because it'd be hard to believe anything else.
A new fact sheet that the CDC released published advice on how trans men can chest feed their infants.
This is insanity.
It's at everywhere. Today on CBS, a guest called Woman Menstruators.
Menstruators, check this out for yourself.
It's make human life possible.
It's potentially one of the most natural biological processes of life.
And yet, history and society has built up this stigma that makes menstruators feel so ashamed.
It makes us feel like there's something wrong with our bodies.
We're taught that period blood is this contaminable, disgusting thing.
Dirty, nasty. And I think that it always breaks my heart to hear so many stories every day of young menstruators who get their period and have never heard about it, right?
Honestly, you can't make this shit up anymore.
This nonsense was allowed to take root in our society because content supporting it was promoted by leftist big techs algorithm and criticism of it was censored and suppressed.
I bet you any one of the people Watching right now, or commenting right now, raise your hand, shoot up a, you know, thumbs up if you've been censored by Facebook.
And yet, I see the shit that they put out there from the left, and it's just promoted.
You know, some dude with three followers that's criticizing Trump can get 100,000 retweets.
That's the battle we're in.
You don't think that liberals and the government had a hand in that?
You don't think they encouraged it?
You don't think they knew exactly what was going on and were trying to suppress anyone actually figuring it out?
It got so extreme because of Trump derangement syndrome.
So now we know.
And why do you think it is that the White House is coming out with this insane lie that we will never know who brought cocaine into the West Wing?
Really? Really?
It's as if the White House isn't full of security cameras.
And a cocaine addict who happens to be the son of the president wasn't at the White House this past week.
Folks, it doesn't take a genius...
To put this together, but we'll never know.
It was probably the Secretary of Defense.
I mean, give me a break.
But of course the Biden White House doesn't even want to answer the most basic questions.
The White House press secretary herself just said she couldn't explain.
Well, why not?
Why not? They're just deflecting that because they're so used to getting away with all the lies, the BS, their innuendo because they get bailed out by the media and big tech each and every time.
There's no accountability.
They don't have to do anything right.
They don't have to be successful and tell the truth.
They'll just lie and big tech will tell you that the lie is real.
If this censorship ruling holds, it will destroy the Democrat Party because that's the entire basis of their existence.
They won't be able to get away with their lies and they won't be able to interfere in elections.
So expect a lot more yelping from Democrats and their allies in the press about the so-called dangers of disinformation unleashed by this ruling.
They will smear this judge, a conservative Trump appointee.
They will do whatever it takes to bring back censorship.
Censorship one way, by the way.
When they lie to you, that's fine.
They don't need to censor that. Only you, speaking truth to power, fighting back, you get censored.
Mind you, while the government not being able to direct Silicon Valley to censor is a victory for the right, that doesn't mean it's a complete end to censorship, because the people in Silicon Valley ain't just gonna roll over.
You know, Zuckerberg's new Twitter competitor, Threads, is already busy at work.
Look at what happens when you try to follow me on there.
It wants users to quote, This account has been repeatedly posting false information and was reviewed by independent fact checkers.
That's always the joke, right? Independent fact checkers.
Or went against our community guidelines.
They just can't help themselves, folks.
They want to be the Twitter slayer, the truth social slayer.
They're going to do it, but basically it seems like they're trying to create...
A platform where they can just dominate and do whatever they want that just gives the left everything.
If they're going to take people like me, because again, this is Instagram's version of a verbal App, right?
So, like, the Instagram bikini model, like, if she can't formulate a complete sentence, probably isn't going to do all that well.
So if you actually censor the people who can on a verbal app, it's probably not going to work out that well.
I was up with my first post for about three minutes earlier today before that happened.
They did the same to other friends of the show, DC Drano and otherwise.
Uh... We see where this is going, unfortunately, and I like the idea of it because it'd be nice to transfer a following that you built up over a long period of time like I have on Instagram, even if I'm censored and even if I'm constantly fact-checked.
What's interesting is they're saying that I'm repeatedly doing false information.
The problem is I don't have any outstanding fact checks because I actually fight them all.
And the fact checkers are usually lying, or they're using innuendo, or they're fact checking obvious satire that you'd have to be a freaking idiot to believe was real, but that's what they do.
Hoping that our apathy, that we don't bother to push back, that we don't fight back, and so they can ding your account so ultimately it has no reach.
So I don't have that, but apparently I guess just having the fact check, even if I get it removed, is enough to mark me as a liability.
And meanwhile, guys, we'll end the news rundown with some wackier news.
Bill de Blasio and his wife are separating.
Bill de Blasio, former mayor of New York, the communist that was running New York and started running it into a ground, but they're not separating in any normal sense.
No, no, no. Bill and his wife gave a three-hour-long interview to The New York Times where they announced their separation and said that they will remain living together and that Bill's wife...
Shirlane McRae will date other people.
I mean, this is like leftism to a T. It's like, imagine doing a three hours A three hour long interview with the New York Times to basically be like, hey, I'm a cuck.
Now if you looked at his policies for running New York, you'd actually come to the conclusion that he is.
But I just can't imagine doing this.
And if you did, why would you tell someone or something so embarrassing to the world?
But then again, I guess when you live in an alternative universe, an alternate reality of woke logic, I guess it makes total sense.
I guess it's like the most Democrat thing ever.
They want your men to be emasculated.
They want to break up the family structure.
They want to do all those things.
So... We'll talk about all of this stuff with Congressman Jackson coming up shortly.
Before we do that, I want to make sure you guys like, subscribe, download the Rumble app, and I want to make sure to thank the brave sponsors who make this show possible.
Guys, it's not easy to do a show like this or to follow because, you know, all of the
same forces that are working against truth, they're working against people who would actually
support a show like this and this kind of content and programming.

So from sourcing beans to the roasting process and customer support, So now, joining us from the great state of Texas is my good friend Congressman Ronnie Jackson.
Ronnie, how you doing, buddy?
Hey, Don. I'm doing great, man.
Thanks for having me. Thank you for being on.
Sorry about my little bit longer news of the week rant, but you can't make this stuff up anymore, man.
You really can't. It's just insane.
Yeah, it gets weirder every day.
That's a great summary, though. You're right.
You wake up thinking you're, you know...
You're in some alternate reality that, you know, it's crazy.
It really is. I'm like, dude, I feel like the star of the Truman Show.
Like, there's hidden cameras all over my house, and everyone is in on it but me.
Because there almost feels like there can't be another explanation.
So I want to... The big ones, obviously, the cocaine in the White House right now.
I mean, you know it intimately.
I'm hearing now it was like in the maps room.
So these are secure places.
These are not places that are, you know, people are walking, they can freely walk about.
What's your reaction to cocaine being found in the White House?
I mean, your office was literally a couple doors down from that.
How would that even work?
I mean, how do you get through security?
I mean, I know what I went through, and I had a Secret Service detail, so I had some pretty serious scrutiny even then.
And what do you think about this sort of notion that they'll never be able to figure out who the culprit is, because that seems like bullshit to me?
Well, if it's in the map room, that's total bullshit.
I'll tell you that because, you know, the map room is not even on the tour route.
The map room was right next door to my office and the map room is locked about 90 percent of the time.
And nobody goes in the map room, you know, for any reason, really.
You know, and I heard also that and this is this is weird.
Like, why won't they just tell us where it was at?
You know, what's the big secret about where they found it?
You know, surely a lot of people at the White House know where that location is.
You would think that eventually it's going to leak out.
Why don't they just tell us right up front where it was at?
Because I also heard that it was somewhere in the West Wing.
And if it was in the West Wing, it certainly didn't come in there by a tourist or someone.
It was brought in by somebody who had a blue badge or a pass or an appointment with somebody in the West Wing to get in there.
And, you know, I heard that it was...
I mean, I just heard all kinds of stuff.
The last I heard was it was in one of the cubbies where you put your phones, you know, when you walk into an area where they don't want you to have your phones or whatever.
We see those all over the federal government.
So, I mean, they have cameras...
There's cameras on all of those areas.
I know people, and it seems like it was in one of the secure areas.
This wasn't on the tour route.
And by the way, even if it was on the tour route, that person's going through such a level of screening that any white powder substance that would trigger it...
That's the other thing that's sort of annoying about the whole thing.
It triggered an evacuation of the White House.
Right. Like, that's not a little deal.
That's not like someone, oh, they spilt a drink or, like, if the White House, the home of the President of the United States, the apparent leader of the free world, although, you know, I'm not sure about this one, but if they evacuated the White House, it's like, oh, yeah, no big deal.
Like, I have a feeling if it was me, I wouldn't get that benefit.
And it's a little bit crazy.
Yeah, it's absolutely, it was a big deal, and they're trying to make it, you know, act like it's no big deal right now.
We need to just move on and stop talking about it.
But it was a big deal, right?
And we need to know where it was at.
I'll tell you, you know, maybe it was Hunter Biden.
Like you said, you know, who knows? I mean, he's probably the most well-known drug user that's in and out of the White House just about every day.
And he was there. That's been confirmed.
He's practically living there, I guess.
He was there for a while, especially, I guess, apparently trying to avoid being, you know, served for custody, whatever the hell it is.
You know, I don't even want to know.
I can't figure it out. Yeah, I mean, I had half of woke Twitter trying to blame me.
Yeah. For cocaine in the White House.
I haven't been there in like three years, and yet somehow it's me.
But the guy who's on video this week, you know, going 172 in a car while smoking crack, who's on video doing other drugs, who's on video with coke, who's clearly a drug addict, like, no, no, that couldn't have been him, even though he was there.
And like, the fact, I just wouldn't get that benefit of the doubt.
I mean, it's pretty amazing.
No, I mean, I can see what happened.
I mean, probably, you know, he had a friend over.
He was like, hey, my dad's out of town this weekend.
Come on over. Let's get high. And, you know, the guy shows up in the residence upstairs and he's like, oh, my God, I know I had some coke when I got here.
I can't find it. You know, and if it wasn't Hunter's, I'm sure Hunter was downstairs within a matter of minutes going through every one of those little cubbies trying to figure out where it was at, you know.
But it's just it's sad that this administration, something like this can happen and they can act like it's not a big deal.
It's just it's just more evidence of how how far we fall and Since President Trump left the White House.
And just our reputation in general, it's just no one respects us anymore.
It's just, it's sad. Yeah, and just as people say, well, did they say it's cocaine?
Yes, that's been confirmed.
That's out there. And again, like, but Ronnie, I think if it was someone on the White House staff with cocaine, that would be a really big deal.
Like, I don't think they would do anyone any favors unless it was someone that was really sort of a liability to the administration, like Hunter Biden, which is, like, you know, you or your team, if that happened, you would never do that.
But if you did, They wouldn't give you that benefit of the doubt.
In fact, I know when my father was going to put you in charge of the VA, the stuff they started saying about you with no basis was far less than anything here, and yet now it's not a problem.
Again, it's that double standard.
It's the liberal privilege.
Again, if it was someone in the Secret Service, they'd be out, we'd know who it was, they'd never work again, and that's it.
The story wouldn't just go away.
Well, Don, if it was somebody when I was there, I guarantee I know what would happen.
They would have went and found me or whoever it was.
If it was somebody who was on my team or whatever, they would have walked them to the gate.
You wouldn't have even got to go back to your office to get your phone or your wallet or anything.
They would have walked you to the gate and walked you right out and your pass would have been revoked and you would have never set foot on the compound again.
That's what would happen. That's what should have happened in this particular incidents as well.
But yeah, it's...
There's a huge double standard.
I just think that these people, don't forget, all of these people have top secret, most of them, TSSCI clearances.
They're doing important jobs.
Most of them are doing jobs they're totally unqualified for in the West Wing.
So I would like to know who it is.
Was it somebody on the National Security Council who's bringing cocaine to work, who's supposed to be responsible for protecting our country?
That would not surprise me at this particular point in this White House.
Yeah, well, contrary to popular belief, despite, again, what the leftists on social try to say about me, like, you know, I don't really know about smuggling cocaine into the White House.
Certainly wouldn't do it. But, like, just imagine having sort of the balls to even be like, yeah, I can do that.
I can get away with that. Like, you've got to be a pretty powerful person just to even think that, right?
It's not like... Oh yeah, I forgot cocaine in my pocket.
I can't imagine that actually happens.
You've got to be someone who maybe has a Secret Service detail that doesn't go through as rigorous a screening, even if it's rigorous, enough so that you can get away with it and walk through it, but also be in enough of a position that you know no one's going to go out of their way to figure it out or break your balls, because it would actually mean something in you.
You would be thrown out of the building in about two seconds.
Right. Yeah. And like you said, they could figure this out if they want to.
There's cameras in all those areas.
They could look and see if it was put in one of those little cubbies.
Who accessed that cubby throughout the day?
There's probably four or five different people that put their hand in that particular cubby.
They could narrow it down pretty quickly and they could figure out who this was.
But they don't want to figure out who it is because it's just going to embarrass the administration even more.
It's going to prove that they're completely incompetent and out of their league.
Yeah, I was watching even the press.
Listen, I got to call balls and strikes sometimes.
Even the media was like, what do you mean you can't?
They weren't satisfied with the explanation of, I can't comment.
Of course you can. How can you not figure this out?
Even they, at this point, And maybe that's it.
I'm not confident that they're going to flip, but even they, I think, are getting to the point where, like, okay, this is getting insane, that they can just flaunt this stuff, whether it's the money, whether it's the allegations of bribery.
Like, if this was Trump, the Trump administration, Don Jr., The only question the media would ask for months would be, so where are we in the investigation of the cocaine?
Where are we with this?
What have we learned since then?
And when can we send Don Jr.
to Gitmo? Yeah.
No, absolutely. And I mean, the Biden administration better beware, because I'll be honest with you, there's going to come a point in the very near future where they're going to have to get rid of Joe Biden.
The Democrats are going to decide, this guy, he's not going to be a viable candidate.
He can't run. He can't beat President Trump.
I mean, you know, He can't, you know, he can't do any of that stuff.
And they're going to realize we've got to get rid of him.
We've got to try to replace him with somebody who has a halfway decent chance of winning.
And they're going to give the press the authority because they control the press.
And they're going to tell the press, you can take the gloves off and you can start going after them on some of this stuff.
And this whole way that Jean-Pierre, you know, this nut job that's the press secretary, he's a box of rocks, gets up in front of everybody and tries to, you know, just not answer any questions, dismiss everything that comes up.
That's not going to fly at some point.
I have a feeling that that's going to be coming in the near future where things are going to turn around.
But I hope so, because it's just, it's ridiculous how the press covers for everything.
No, I look at all the instances.
You can talk about the Hunter stuff.
I know what they tried to do to me.
Remember the Ashley Biden diary.
Apparently, some fundraising event I was at, someone wanted to give me a copy of it.
Honestly, after Russia, Russia, Russia, I actually wanted nothing to do with it.
But the FBI was inquiring about me, and did I have it?
Did I not? They raided James O'Keefe's house because of it, even though he's a member of the press, clearly.
They made a big deal about that being spread around when it was left, I guess, in an abandoned apartment or whatever it may be, but not about the content of the diary, where it's pretty sick stuff.
No one seems to be out there saying that it wasn't real.
They're just saying, well, it's private.
It's like, well, yeah, but I have a feeling if it was Don Jr.'s private diary accusing my father of doing these sorts of things, again, they wouldn't get the benefit of the doubt.
The guy that leaked it or whatever...
You know, the FBI spent more time wanting to talk to me about something I never even saw, only because I figured I knew where this was going at this point, than about the actual content of the diary, which is, you know, let's call it rather accusatory against the leader of the free world again.
But again, you, me, my father, we wouldn't get that benefit of that.
That wouldn't just go away as innuendo.
It would be a constant problem because it's in writing from his daughter.
Right. And another perfect example is the laptop.
Can you imagine if that was your laptop?
I mean, even if you were lucky enough to convince the American people to get the press to help you convince the American people that it wasn't really your laptop, whenever the time came or the FBI and the rest of, you know, everybody else that had possession of the laptop admitted that, yes, this is Hunter Biden's laptop.
Why aren't the press digging into that laptop all day long every day?
I mean, there's so much stuff on that laptop.
I mean, if it were your laptop, it would be on the news every single night.
There would be something new from that laptop that would just be horrific.
Because, you know, it's there.
They just don't talk about it. Oh, we keep seeing it.
But, you know, again, like, I'll put the highlights on the show.
But, like, mainstream media doesn't talk about it.
You know, there's the video of him doing 172 in the car smoking crack.
Same time there's an incident in cocaine in the White House.
And, like, yeah, definitely wasn't him.
Like, we can't just... Like, again, and you know what?
Maybe it wasn't, but I doubt it.
Like, you know, there's about a 99.9% chance it is.
And again, I wouldn't be given that if there was a 1% chance it was me, it was definitely me, according to the mainstream media.
If there's a 0.01% chance it wasn't Hunter, it clearly wasn't Hunter.
I mean, that's the difference.
It's just the insanity. I think that's getting kind of old, you know?
Yeah, I mean, with you and me, everything is, you know, guilty until proven innocent.
And with them, it's the other way around.
It's the way it's supposed to be, you know, innocent until proven guilty.
Yeah, I mentioned sort of what they tried doing to you and the VA stuff.
And, you know, then, hey, you withdrew your nomination.
Now you're in Congress. You're probably doing more damage to their nonsense with the stuff that you're working on as an insider who actually understands this stuff.
So I'm glad where it ends up.
But, you know, when you put your number, oh, then it all goes away.
Oh, you mean so it wasn't real?
Like, if you did all the things, you know what I mean?
Like, they did it to...
Same thing with Matt Gaetz.
You know, Matt Gaetz was doing this.
Oh, it goes away.
Well, we're just going to drop it.
So you mean the whole thing that you said about him, all the terrible allegations?
Like, oh, there's nothing there, so you're just going to say, we're just going to drop the investigation.
Not... It was always based on lies.
It was always based on bullshit.
It was never true, but that doesn't matter if they can do it.
It's even crap that's so easily provable that they know it's not true, and they could take the time.
And when I say time, I mean a matter of hours to a couple of days to figure out whether it was true or not before they reported it.
Like, for example, whenever they're trying to tear my nomination down, they put a story out there that I went to a Secret Service party, got drunk, and wrecked a government vehicle.
Okay, first off, I've never been in an accident involving alcohol my entire life.
I've never even been to a Secret Service party, Christmas party before ever, right?
And if you go back and look in the, I think it was the Washington Post or something about a year earlier, that exact same thing happened to a Secret Service agent about a year earlier.
It was like they took the same story, cut his name out, pasted my name in, gave it to MSNBC, CNN, let them run with it for two weeks to tear down the nomination.
Any two-bit investigator could have figured out in a matter of hours whether or not that actually happened, but they didn't care.
They didn't care whether it actually happened.
They knew it probably didn't, but they just wanted to run the headlines and tear the nomination down, and that's what they do.
They are a tool.
They are a weapon of the left, the press is.
They're the biggest threat to this country right now.
You know, I had that conversation with Devin Nunes.
I had him on the show, you know, a week and a half ago.
And that's what it was. He said the same thing because he was running a lot of the House intelligence stuff.
And he was like, I really think that the whole Steele dossier was actually based on Hunter Biden because it was done by Hillary Clinton when she thought she'd be competing against Joe Biden.
So they amassed this dossier that was probably based on Hunter, given the allegations.
And then they were like, oh, well, we're not running against Joe.
So I would just repurpose it and make it and pretend it's Trump.
And I was like, oh my god, that's probably exactly right.
There doesn't have to be any truth that they can just accuse you.
Saul Alinsky, accuse them of doing the things that you're actually doing, and you can get away with it.
And so it happens over and over.
And I just hope that people are finally waking up to it.
I mean, that's what we try to do here.
But again, we're up against a lot.
And I'll tell you the other thing they do, too, that's just horrific is they'll go back and they'll, you know, it'll be proven that it didn't happen, but it never makes it in the news.
Or if it does, it's a footnote somewhere.
It never shows up. And then you go and you Google, like Google my name or something on there.
What pops up? That story from so many years ago.
How many things have I done since I've been in Congress that's out there that's, you know, all the news that, you know, that's been associated with my name?
None of it shows up. You've got to go down about three pages of the garbage.
That they made up about four years ago before you come to anything that's going on in my life right now.
It's crazy the way they do that.
I mean, it's criminal.
Yeah, well, we talked about this when you were on the show the first time.
And, you know, listen, you were a White House doctor under Obama.
You had a great relationship with him at the time.
You didn't, you know... And that was fine.
But the second you... I mean, I thought one of the most epic moments in television, if you guys haven't seen it, you've got to go watch the press conference where Dr.
Jackson was talking to the press about my father's...
You know, his physical examination when he was president.
Because it was like dumb and dumber watching these guys.
Like, they'd ask... So you're saying there's a chance he could just drop dead just to try to make, like, create a story out of nothing?
I mean, you know, they spend more time on the fact that he drinks multiple Diet Cokes a day than they did that they found actual Coke in the White House.
I mean, that should tell you all you need to know.
But yeah, you saw firsthand.
Now, does that experience and what they try to do to you, I mean, does that influence the way you're fighting now in Congress and the things that you're trying to get done?
Because you... You know, it's different.
I used to be like, hey, you know, it's the FBI. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt.
They must be trying to do the right thing.
No, they're not. Like, they're not.
Very few in government are actually trying to do anything even remotely resembling the right thing for our country.
So, I mean, having had a taste of the vitriol against you, does that change the way you react and you fight now?
It's changed everything about me, Don.
I wouldn't be here. I wouldn't be a member of Congress if that hadn't happened.
I got in this fight because I'm disgusted with what's going on in a large part because of what I went through.
But here's what I'll tell you. They underestimate.
When they look at people like me, they look at people like you, what they don't realize is they come after us.
They try to cut our head off day after day after day.
What they don't realize is we're forged in fire now.
And I think my biggest asset right now in Congress is I don't give a damn what they say about me anymore.
I don't care. I just don't care.
And guess what? The American people are seeing through a lot of it.
So my supporters and the people that support me in the 13th Congressional District of Texas, they don't believe that garbage anyways.
So I just keep pushing.
I just keep moving on. And I don't care.
And that gives you a lot of power and a lot of authority when you can fight the fight and not worry about what's being said about you or what they're trying to do to you.
By the way, you're so right.
I see that for myself.
I know what they tried doing to me.
Like I said, they created the monster.
You go after someone, you lie about them.
He's like, well, what do I have to lose at this point?
I remember having the conversations back in the day during Russia, Russia, Russia.
My lawyers were like, no, they want to try you for treason.
That's a crime punishable by death.
I'm like, listen, I got to start fighting.
There comes a point where you're like, what do I have to lose?
They're not going to go lighter on me.
Two years later, my lawyers were like, you know what?
You were actually right. If I curled up in a ball and died sucking my thumb in the fetal position, that wouldn't stop them.
That just starts the next round of attacks.
If they know that you're going to be weak, if you actually fight back, you have a chance.
And the sooner more of us learn that, the better.
So I hate that you had to go through it, but I love that it created...
Uh, you know, an even more aggressive warrior for what we're fighting for, because, you know, all of that stuff's on the table.
That's right. Yeah. No, I'm happy to be here and I wouldn't change it because, you know, like I said, it put me where I'm at.
I feel like I'm making a difference right now.
It's frustrating sometimes being in D.C. You feel like you're banging your head against the wall.
But you have to have people that don't recall and don't retreat when they start attacking them.
And most members of Congress, to be honest with you, they do.
And they know that. That's why they use the press as a tool to come after you and call you a homophobe and a racist and transphobe and all these other labels they put on you to cause you to try to back down from what you're saying, what you know to be right.
And I just won't do it anymore.
Yeah, no, that's so right.
So, a quick medical question.
We learned, you know, this week that Biden's now using a CPAP machine to sleep.
I know young guys that do that for snoring and stuff like that, but when you're his age and you start using it, could there be anything more to that in terms of what it might mean for his health and what else they may be hiding?
I mean, clearly the guy's not well.
Cognitively. He falls down all the time.
He can't remember where he is.
It ain't a stutter, despite what they want to pretend it is.
He just forgets who he's talking to and where he's supposed to go when he gets done speaking.
But is there anything to that or not, really?
Well, yeah, the first thing you want to ask yourself is why wasn't that included on his medical report?
Because I read his medical report, right?
And, you know, his doctor, you know, I know the guy well.
I mean, he's, you know, he's questionable with regards to his medical capabilities to start with.
But, you know, this guy didn't get up in front of the press and explain it.
He put out a written report.
I don't remember reading anywhere in that written report about him having a diagnosis of sleep apnea and using a CPAP machine.
Now, it makes you wonder, if that was omitted, what else was omitted from his physical report?
I don't trust anything coming out of the medical side of his house.
I know they're covering up for him.
He's probably on all kinds of medications that we don't know about.
They're just not straightforward.
They're part of the problem.
Yeah, so what do you think about that?
You'll see him get up and give a speech, and every once in a while, it's like the first seven or eight minutes, it's like, okay.
And then it's like whatever they gave him wore off, right?
There's only so much they can jack him up.
All this stuff seems to be earlier.
than what most people and most presidents prior to him would have done it.
I mean, is there stuff that they could give him?
I like your point, like, hey, if they're not telling us about that, that's not on the thing, what else are they not telling us?
And would they be possibly hiding other stuff that they're giving to create a moment of lucidity that seems to disappear in anything that goes more than a few minutes?
Well, maybe that was his cocaine.
I don't know. I mean, maybe that's what he needs.
I don't know. Maybe it's Joe.
I'm pretty sure it's Hunter because I saw that thing when he's there at night and he's, you know, I don't know, man.
That looked like Hunter. But is there a legal obligation for them to tell us these things?
I mean, you know, and if they're not, are there consequences to, you know, selectively omitting some of these?
Yeah, I mean, I would hope so.
I mean, you know, when you take this job, it's a difficult balance because you're not only the primary care doctor, the personal physician for the president of the United States, but you're taking care of the office of the president as well.
And you have an obligation to make sure that you take that part of your job serious as well.
So the physician should be talking to the first lady and other people that are close to him if there's legitimate issues going on, which we all know there are, and talking about what the alternatives here are.
But yeah, I mean, there's medications they can give him.
I'm sure they are giving him. That could perk him up for a little bit and make him a little bit more cognitively aware.
But the issue is, and this is what we're seeing play out in front of us, and I've been saying this for a long time.
You know, Joe Biden's not a fine wine.
He's not going to get better with time.
Whatever's going on cognitively with him is going to, the natural course of All of those diseases, regardless of what causes them, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, multi-infarct dementia, whatever it is, they get worse with time.
And the medications that work initially eventually stop working.
And that's what we're seeing. We're seeing that he has fewer and fewer good moments and more and more bad moments.
And they're going to have no choice but to go back to their initial plan and just put it on steroids where they just lock him up in the basement, try to keep him out of the public eye.
And that's the only way they're going to cover this up because they're going to get to a point where the medications or whatever else they're doing, whether it's just trying to time it, time of the day, because some times of the day are better than other times of the day for these people, none of that stuff's going to work anymore.
So I'm waiting to see what happens, but I think it's going to get worse.
Yeah, you can't, with that stuff, you know, I assume you can't just keep doubling down or doubling dosages or whatever, hoping to get something, right?
Eventually, it just loses all efficacy.
Right, that's right. Yeah, and it's famous for doing that, for not working very well after a certain period of time.
And then you don't have any alternatives at that point, and, you know, it just gets really bad really fast.
So what do you think?
I mean, should Joe Biden even try to run in 2024 at this point?
Or do you believe the Democrats already, you know, that they're already coming up with some sort of plan B, you know, knowing that maybe he gets them through a primary and then they flip in someone at the last minute or they try to get them through an election and then stick in their, you know, their plant later on somehow?
Don, look, I hope he runs.
I pray that he runs because your father is going to annihilate this man.
I mean, he would destroy him in a general election.
And I just hope that happens.
But the reality is, is I think that they know that, too.
And I think that they're thinking to themselves like, OK, you know, we'll drag this out for a little bit longer.
But at some point, we have to get rid of this guy.
We have to get somebody in that can actually do the job, you know, or at least look like they're going to do their job or at least look like they're semi-competitive.
And they have they have a I don't know what they're planning, but I'm predicting that Joe Biden won't be the nominee.
I don't think he will be. I don't think they can do that.
I mean, I think that, you know, it's political suicide on their part to keep him as their nominee.
You know, I don't disagree, so it'll be interesting what gamesmanship they come up with to do this one.
So, you know, I want to get to sort of the military, because, you know, when you were on the show last time, you explained how the military will literally pay for, you know, the trans surgeries.
But then once you have the surgery, the person can't even really serve, certainly not on the front lines, when they recover from all their procedures, which seems to create a vicious cycle of people joining the military for all the wrong reasons, creating, let's just say, an atmosphere that's not exactly appealing to the people we'd actually want joining the military.
And the DOD, the Department of the Defense, seems to be Seems very proud of the trans activism taking place inside the military.
They recently spotlighted a trans army major who they claimed inspires us all.
When our adversaries see this, and you were an admiral in the Navy, when our adversaries see this, what do you think is going through their heads?
Because I know what's going through mine.
Well, they're licking their lips.
I mean, they love this, right?
They realize that they're preparing for war.
You know, they're fine-tuning their war machine, and they look at what we're doing, and it's absolutely ridiculous.
And they love it because they're going to win the war without firing a single shot because we're going to eat ourselves alive from the inside out.
I mean, you look at recently, I remember also we had a general from the Space Force that
was getting up and giving a Pride Day speech and was basically bragging or saying that,
you know, that, hey, I'm actually promoting people and I'm promoting the lesser qualified
people because of the diversity issue that I have to take into consideration.
She literally said that, right?
And that's what they're doing.
And that's they don't care.
That's the quickest way to get promoted.
Let me show you this right here.
This right here.
This is the ugliest woman I have ever laid eyes on.
But this woman, who's a major now in the Army, will probably be the next chairman of the Joint Chiefs.
Because you just watch, if this woman stays in the military, they're going to get promoted through the ranks faster than any other peers because of that particular reason.
Because that's all they're looking for now, is this woke social agenda that you want to promote in your day-to-day life.
So, I mean, that's all really matters anymore.
It doesn't matter what performance, you know, being able to do the job, competency.
None of those things are really considered anymore.
It's just, are you woke and are you woke enough?
And if you have some, if you check a box, if you check one of these diversity boxes, you're just going to get promoted up.
It's a shame. It's destroying the military.
I think I said it last time with you on the show, which is, like, it seems like these days, I mean, you became an admiral the hard way, actually doing it and working it and being a doctor.
You know, it seems like today the fastest, like, path for, you know, promotion in the military is just be, like, as woke as possible.
If you could check all, you know, we need trans fighter pilots because, you know, diversity is our strength.
Now, you were in the military a lot longer than many.
Yeah. Is there an example of diversity actually being our strength, or is it just a talking point that no one's willing to push back on because, you know, it's bullshit, but, you know, I guess that's the surest deal.
Calling bullshit in the military, even if it's bullshit at this point, means you're going nowhere.
It's a complete farce.
It's just the opposite. It's not a strength.
It's a weakness. Because if you take performance and your ability to do the job out of the picture and nothing is based on those issues, then good people don't stay around, right?
I mean, if you're moving up the ranks and you're one of the brightest and the bravest and one of the most physically and You know, mentally capable in your peer group and you see these people getting pushed ahead of you because of race and gender issues that not near as good at the job as you are, not near as competent in the job as you are.
You don't hang around. You get out.
Some of them don't have a choice. Some of them get passed over promotion because they're preferentially promoting these people that are, you know, Some of them more and more just get frustrated and get out of the military.
So it's doing just the opposite.
It's making our military weak.
It's impacting our readiness.
And it's going to get us in trouble because we're headed for war with China at some point in the future.
That's almost a given at this particular point.
And every day that goes by and we're focusing on this garbage, on pronouns and You know, gender issues and, you know, promoting transgenders and extremism and, you know, white supremacy and all these other garbage that, you know, that they want us to focus on that doesn't exist in the military as a distraction because it fits their social agenda and the way they want to treat the military as a social experiment.
It's making us weaker and it's going to get us defeated when push comes to shove and we actually have to perform.
So, I mean, you've been on the forefront of this, fighting against wokeness in the military.
You work to eliminate a DEI advisory committee.
I can only imagine the crap that that would come up with at the Pentagon.
And you're offering an amendment to stop the DOD's use of taxpayer dollars to fund abortions.
Tell us about this work, you know, specifically, because, you know, people, I love that you're actually doing it, right?
Because a lot of people, you know, they talk the high-level points, but then they don't actually do anything.
You're actually in there fighting and doing and pushing back on this insanity.
I think, honestly, even our generals must know it's insanity, but I guess there's no consequence to not being ready, but there is a consequence to taking on, like, the trans-mafia.
Well, the generals do know it's ridiculous.
Most of them, you know, not the ones that they're promoting now that actually belong to those communities that are becoming, you know, flagging general officers, but the ones that are there, they know this is garbage, right?
But they're doing it. You know why? I asked myself a million times, like, why do these generals endorse this, right?
Why are they playing along with this?
And then I realized, well, you know, when they get out of the military, they can't immediately be consultants.
There's a There's a period of time for two to three years where they're forbidden from being a lobbyist or anything like that.
But what they can do is they can go sit on these woke corporate boards.
And if you want to center a big woke corporate board, you better have some real woke credentials that you can lay out in front of the board.
And that's what they use their last few years in the military as a two-star, three-star, four-star.
They use that to build their resume so they can sit on these woke boards.
But yeah, I'm fighting back on this.
I'll tell you what, for the first two years I was in Congress, and this is my third year now, my second term, but my first term, All they did when the Democrats controlled the House, doesn't matter what committee was, whether it was Armed Services or Foreign Affairs or Ways and Means or Energy and Commerce, every committee, we didn't talk about anything that didn't have to do with the woke social agenda.
That's all they did.
All the legislation they pushed through, it had to do with that.
So we got a lot of work to do now.
We're overturning all of these issues.
You know, DEI and CRT policies that they have in place and the fact that they're trying to use taxpayer dollars to fund abortion in the military.
We're having to pass legislation now to turn that all around because they spent two years shoving that down the military's throat and shoving it down the throat of the American people.
With these high ranking generals endorsing what was going on.
But we're going to change that. We are absolutely going to change that.
We're making progress right now.
We don't have the Senate yet. So a lot of the stuff we're passing out of the House is dying in the Senate.
But the American people are seeing what's going on.
We're going to get the Senate back next time.
I'm pretty certain. I hope we can keep the House.
We're going to have to work hard to keep the House.
But we're going to get the Senate back. And if we get the Senate and the House, a lot of this stuff is going to end up on the president's desk.
And I pray to God it's not President Biden.
We're going to get it signed and we're going to get our military back.
Because our country and our national security and our freedom depends on it.
A hundred percent.
I mean, so in your opinion, as someone who's in there, not only in the military before, but also now doing this in Congress, is our military even ready to face a major conflict given the agenda, the leadership, the things that seem to be taking priority from Biden and from the Pentagon?
How worried should Americans be?
I see what you're doing to get rid of the woke agenda, but like, Is it too late right now?
I mean, I see, you know, we have got boots on the ground in Ukraine.
They lied to us about that.
You see the threats to China and Taiwan.
We had a hard time in Afghanistan.
We're going to fight a two-front war against China and Russia?
I don't know, man. It doesn't seem like an awesome situation.
No, it's not an awesome situation.
We're headed in the wrong direction, but I think it's salvageable.
I think if we had to fight a war right now, we could win the war.
You know, but it's not going to remain that way for long.
We're literally headed in the wrong direction.
And I'll tell you, you know, during the Obama administration, the eight years of the Obama administration, they worked hard to vet officers, especially officers that were moving into the flag and general officer ranks for their political beliefs so that they could keep the left leaning people in there and promote them to two stars, three stars and four stars.
And they could get rid of the people that had conservative leanings.
They worked on that for eight Eight years during the Obama administration.
And the Biden administration, what they're doing now is they're going after the general ranks.
They're going after the enlisted, the senior enlisted, and the junior officers.
And they're trying to replace the conservative-minded people in that community, which is the vast majority of the military.
By the way, most of which are conservative-leaning people.
That's why I think there's still hope here, because most of the people in the military aren't buying into this bullshit.
They're not. They see it for what it is.
But I think that's the recruitment problem, Ronnie.
I mean, you know, the recruitment numbers are down so much because like a big part again of like signing up to fight and possibly die for your country is you got to believe in the actual priorities of the country.
And if you're sitting there like, you know, DEI! And you're a patriotic white American male.
You have no chance of getting a promotion because someone who's underperforming you, not just equal to you, but probably underperforming you, is going to get that job.
And it's incentivized. Why would you go?
I mean, I sort of get that.
I have friends who are like, you know, fourth generation military.
And they're like, I wouldn't even think about letting my kid go.
I mean, that's scary, man.
That's a scary thought because, you know, the people you want actually fighting, you know, probably not the people they're highlighting in these videos for DEI and, you know, trans sensitivity.
Yeah, and the vast majority of the people that are in the military are from military families.
That's just how it works. And so you're right.
A lot of people are not encouraging their family members to go into the military.
And, you know, we have to fix that.
And that's what we're trying to do in Congress right now, because that's why I'm working so hard to get CRT and DEI and, you know, all this garbage out of the military so that we can get our recruitment numbers back up.
And we've got to get it out of our academies.
They're really working hard on our academies as well.
But we can take our country back.
We can take our military back.
But it's going to take a lot of aggressive...
We have to go back and we have to try to...
I put some legislation in there where they can't go after academy grads.
They were trying to take academy grads that they kicked out solely because of the COVID vaccine issue.
They kicked them out of the academy when they're in their fourth year, when they're just about to graduate.
And they wouldn't give them a commission.
Some of them did graduate. They wouldn't give them a commission.
And then they tried to tell them that they wanted all the money back for the four years of college, things of that nature.
We passed legislation in the NDAA this time that says not only can those people come back to the military, but anybody else that got kicked out in the military can come back into the military and pick up where they left off, and we're going to give them back pay and everything else.
And that's the kind of stuff we have to do.
We have to let people know that the military is still a great place to be and a great place to serve your country.
But you're right, we're losing it right now, and we've got to turn it around.
We don't have a lot of time to turn it around.
Forget it. Forget it.
Yeah, because that's what I'm worried about, right?
There's two parts to that, right?
There's the, hey, you pass legislation making it illegal to use those kind of, it's just reverse racism, right?
But guess what?
If the people at the top who are still the decision makers do it, fine.
There won't be a written policy.
They'll just do it. You mentioned the academies.
I mean, you saw the same thing.
I saw it with a lot of my friends in sort of the teams, right?
The special operator SEALs.
They're like, hey, we're not doing it because of X, Y, Z. These are the healthiest people in the world.
Even the science said that they're not at risk, right?
They could isolate. They're in the middle of no.
But no, we're going to force it on them.
But if they weren't, you're out.
They did it with the fighter pilots.
You can't just replace a fighter pilot with someone who's never been in a plane in a day.
That's years, millions of dollars of training.
And they seemed really content just letting those people go.
Whatever. We'll find a trans person that has a bunch of boxes that are checked.
We'll teach them how to be a pilot in a couple years.
Sure, they won't be as good as the guy that we're throwing out, but they'll be woke and we get points for that.
Yeah, Don, I'll tell you exactly why this happened.
It's very obvious to me after being on the Armed Services Committee for three years, right?
You're right. Why would they let these people that they've spent literally hundreds of thousands of dollars training
as pilots and as special operators?
And why would they let these people go over this particular issue?
You know, especially when they knew that there was really no danger to these people, the young, otherwise healthy
people.
You know why? It's because I talked about how they're trying to purge the ranks right now.
You know, the junior officers and the senior enlisted.
The reason they did that is because they know that the vast majority of the people that had an issue with getting the
vaccine were conservative by nature.
They realized that they put these two things together early on and they said, hey, these are the type of people that
are refusing the vaccine.
If we can just kick them all out, we're going to kick a few people out probably that don't fit into that category.
But the vast majority of the people that we're going to kick out of the military are people that don't share our woke ideology in the first place, and we don't want them in our military anymore anyways.
So they used it as a way to purge the military.
Yeah, 100%.
So what were your thoughts on sort of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention?
Seems, you know, like an oxymoron these days.
But the official website published advice for trans and non-binary individuals on seeking guidance on how to chest feed animals.
They're infants because they don't actually have breasts that can produce milk, but like, I mean, despite the risks posed to children drinking milk produced by chemicals used in gender reassignment surgery and medical operations, what's your reaction as a medical professional to have the CDC pushing this stuff as though it's perfectly normal and fine?
Well, it's ludicrous. These people should have, the ones that are physicians should have their medical license taken away from them.
This is absolute insanity.
They wanted to take medical license away from physicians all over the country because they may have recommended hydrochloric, you know, one of the therapies that they didn't agree with, yet they're going to let people talk to, you know, You know, tell you that a man can breastfeed and menstruate and tell you they don't know the difference between a man and a woman.
This is ridiculous. This is ludicrous that we're getting to this point in our country.
And it just goes back to what we were talking about earlier.
It makes us the laughing stock.
I mean, people, Don, I go to meetings now in the Armed Services and Foreign Affairs Committee.
I go overseas and I meet with, you know, politicians and, you know, leaders of other countries and military officials.
And we have dinner together.
We talk about issues. They are literally laughing at us.
They think that this is a joke.
They laugh at our president.
They laugh at our policies.
They laugh at the left. And it's just embarrassing.
And we used to be the most respected among all of the people out there that would go to these meetings, all the countries that were out there.
We had the ultimate respect that people would follow our lead, whether they liked us or didn't like us.
They always respected us.
That respect is gone now.
Yeah. No, I mean, it seems insane.
The people that have been pushing science on us and trying...
I guess my biggest concern is there are things that maybe they get right, but I think they've sown such discord.
They've given us so many reasons to not trust them that even on the occasion that they may be right one day down the line on something, who's actually going to be like, yeah, I'm going with their recommendation rather than I'm going to avoid it like the plague?
It's absolutely dangerous. The way that they tried to manipulate the data on the COVID vaccine and cover things up, they created all kinds of distrust in the American people.
The American people do not trust the public health sector in this country at all.
Tony Fauci is the biggest part of the problem, right?
And he and the CDC director and all the other people that were involved in this, they've completely lost the confidence and the trust of the American people.
And you're right, something will happen in the near future.
There will be something big that's a big public health issue.
Threat to all of us, and we'll need those people to do their jobs and to give us good, solid advice on how to keep ourselves safe.
But no one's going to trust these people now.
No one's going to trust them. And when we talk about this, I'm on the COVID Select Committee for COVID. We talk about this all the time.
And no matter what the topic is during our hearings related to COVID, that comes up every time.
No one trusts the public health sector anymore.
And I don't know how we get that trust back.
But they're not doing it by talking about chest feeding.
It's just making things worse.
Definitely not instilling the little bit of confidence that the general public would need.
Yeah, they're doing a lousy job with that.
So there was some good news last week.
The court struck down affirmative action.
The Supreme Court in college admissions finding it violated the 14th Amendment.
How significant is this ruling?
And what does it say about the importance and the legacy of my father's Supreme Court nominees?
Well, I mean, it's unbelievable what your father did as far as judges and Supreme Court justices go.
It is the only thing that's partially saved this country for the three years that we've been living through this Biden nightmare is that we have some good people in place that he put there that are protecting us.
So I'm really pleased with some of the rulings that came back from the Supreme Court this week.
I think they're doing a great job.
They're looking at the Constitution and looking at whether or not things are constitutional or not.
And I think that, you know, going back and looking at the student debt issue and looking at the affirmative action issue, I mean, affirmative action at this particular point in our country is nothing more than reverse racism, right?
And two wrongs don't make a right.
I mean, I don't care what happened, you know, years and years ago, it was horrible, you know, when our country was, you know, was like that.
But, you know, things have evolved significantly.
And I remember even, you know, I mean, I would say Back in the Clinton-Bush years, I never, I don't remember ever even thinking about race.
I mean, you know, I think, me and I think most people have kind of gotten way past that.
And I was just, I don't care if you're black or white.
I don't care what your race is, right?
We're all people.
We're all human beings. I could care less.
But, you know, Ever since Obama and now Biden, which is a lot of this on steroids, that's all you hear about.
That's all people talk about.
I'm so glad they knocked this down because it's just doing great damage to our country.
They're getting people pushing them through these universities.
They're not the most qualified people.
They're not the people that earned the right to be there.
It's being done just based on gender and race and things of this nature.
It's just not right. We're better than that at this particular point in this country.
Yeah, I mean, I don't think it's going to stop universities from doing it anyway, because, you know, I think academia has been so entrenched with that.
But you see the leftists, you see them, you know, Joy Reid, who I think is an idiot, but, like, she's out there on, you know, her show.
Or, I only got into Harvard because of affirmative action.
It's like, well, then maybe you didn't belong in Harvard.
That doesn't mean you couldn't go to a good college or something like that, but like she
got to go to a very elite, you know, again, I don't even know if that matters anymore.
As someone who went to an Ivy League school, I look at the stuff that's coming out of these.
I look at the mindset that they're pushing.
I look at the, uh, I mean, it's almost impossible to actually have that free speech dialogue
that we believe in because if you go against it, you know, you're going to be penalized.
When I'm on a college campus, the first question I ask, hey, if your teachers knew you were here listening to me speak, Would you be penalized academically?
Everyone's hand goes up.
So I don't even know that it matters because I think a lot of those elite institutions are that in name only because they're not actually teaching anything.
But it's pretty clear that it was like, oh yeah, so like you're basically admitting that you don't belong or you shouldn't have gotten in there for any other reason other than race or other than gender or other than sex or, you know, you're...
Your status as a non-binary individual or whatever it may be.
So, I mean, it seems like common sense, but the fact that they're proving everyone's point verbally and they don't even get it.
Well, you're right, Don. And these Ivy League, these elite schools, they're doing great damage to themselves.
And eventually, their reputation is going to be completely gone.
It's already headed that way. I was talking to CEOs the other day in my office in Congress, and they were telling me that they won't hire anybody from an Ivy League school anymore.
They said they won't even look at their applications.
If they're an Ivy League school, it just goes in the garbage.
They said because there's only two types of people that come from these Ivy League schools now.
The people that come in that think that everything that happens in the workplace, they get a vote in, that's a democracy, and that their opinion should matter just as much as the CEO or somebody who's running it.
They've totally lost the concept that we grew up with, where you start at the bottom and work your way up and you do what you're told.
On the way up, they don't have that concept at all.
And the other people that come out of there are the ones that don't necessarily come off like that, but they made it through four years of that university.
They've been beat down so bad, they've had to keep their head down so much just to make it through that they've beaten the leadership out of them.
So they tell me that these are some of the worst candidates they possibly have now coming out of these institutions.
And you look at what's going on, you know, they get together, the class, they're taking organic chemistry and they decide organic chemistry is too hard.
And they put together a You know, a proposal or they have a protest and say that, you know, the organic chemistry teacher should be fired because organic chemistry is too hard.
So they fire the organic chemistry teacher and they give them all A's.
How are these people going to function when it comes to doing their actual job out in society?
These are going to be engineers and doctors and people like this.
So, I mean, I think pretty soon people are going to realize if you're getting these woke people, these diversity candidates that are coming through, that were pushed through the system and pushed out on the other side, if they're coming from one of these schools, you're going to get somebody that's not going to be able to function in real life.
And I think that's it's going to it's going to it's going to irrevocably or, you know, it's going to be they're not going to be able to repair the damage that it's going to do to their to their reputation.
Or they just get a gender studies degree because that's going to pay for itself.
And then, yeah, so I mean, we had a couple of good rulings.
So obviously, you had the ruling that it was unconstitutional for Joe Biden to make a hardworking blue collar plumber pay for the elite gender studies doctoral students.
You know, half-million-dollar college loans for a job that couldn't ever pay two cents.
You had, obviously, the ruling from a Trump-appointed judge in Louisiana about not allowing the government to collude essentially directly with big tech.
And then you had affirmative action.
I mean, that's a really big week for Trump and Trump conservative judges, especially as we're in a primary.
I mean, those are three major issues came down all at one time, all the right way, and all, by the way,
based on merit and fairness, which is sort of what we're looking for there, which is why the left is losing their
minds.
But do you think that that changes your assessment of the state of the GOP primary?
And I don't mean the ones that are just doing it to, you know, get on MSDNC a couple of times or anything like that.
But do you think it changes things?
Because, you know, again, there's a lot of people talking about all the things they would have done that they haven't done and all the things that they would do differently in hindsight, which is really easy to do.
But, I mean, these are major, major things.
Well, no, it absolutely changes it.
I mean, I think a lot of people had made their mind up that President Trump is the only thing that's going to save this country at this particular point anyways.
But this just reinforces it, right?
These are his actions speaking, not his words.
These are things that he's done that we can see happening.
We can see what it's doing for our country.
These are the actions that he took while he was in office for four years, right?
And that's what we've got to have back.
We have to have a proven leader, not somebody who tells us they can lead and doesn't even tell us what their plan is, but just wants us to believe that they can lead.
He's a proven leader.
He's shown us that he can lead.
And whether you like what he says or what he doesn't say sometimes, or you like the way he says it or you don't like the way he says it, you know, and most people are coming to this conclusion very quickly, that it doesn't matter.
I don't care about that stuff anymore.
What I care about is this man...
It's going to be the thing that gets us out of the horrible situation that Biden has put us in over the last three years.
And I think he's the only one that can do it, Don.
I really do. I think he's the only one that's committed enough that's lived through it.
We were talking about earlier, living through part of this.
He's lived through this. I think he's the only one that's going to go into the White House on day one.
He's going to look at every single entity in the executive office of the president, whether it's Department of Justice or Department of Defense or Department of Veterans Affairs or Department of Energy or Whatever it is, he's going to look at that and he's going to purge these places of these woke individuals that are behind the scenes trying to destroy this country.
The ones, the same ones that last time spent his entire term trying to cut his legs out from under him, right?
Instead of supporting him as part of his administration.
And so other people can talk about, they can say they're going to do that, but I can promise you he is going to do it.
Yeah. You know, I want to bring back mean tweets and cheap gas.
But, you know, we are at a critical time, right?
I mean, you have the leader of the opposition party is trying to throw my father in jail for 450 years.
I mean... You know, that's kind of a big one.
That's sort of unprecedented. Again, the people that screeched democracy during Trump when everyone was much more prosperous and had freedom and we got peace in the Middle East, amongst other things, they're awfully silent about that.
But, I mean, is it time for the party to unify around Trump?
You know, what are your thoughts about the rest of sort of this primary?
Are the debates worth it?
I mean, I'm sort of torn on that one.
I'll give you my opinion after maybe I hear yours, but, you know, Are we just depleting resources, having a primary to get a couple of people on a book tour and the fake conservative contributor on CNN while we deplete our resources that we won't have to fight a huge Democrat ballot harvesting machine and otherwise in 2024?
Look, Don, he is so far ahead in the polls right now, so far ahead in the polls that at this particular point, I do think that we need to coalesce around him, right?
And we don't have time for games.
We don't even have time for the debates in my mind right now, right?
We don't need to do anything that's going to undermine our nominee in any shape, form or fashion, right?
We need to be spending every single day trying to make our nominee, make our nominee President Trump.
And we need to spend every single day trying to make our nominee more and more powerful, stronger and stronger every single day to fight this fight.
I think we've got one chance to get this country back.
If we don't get this country back, if we don't get President Trump back in office, if we let the Democrats keep the White House, I don't know if we come back from this.
I really don't. I'm not trying to be dramatic about this.
I think you can look at what's happened over the last few years and most people come to the same conclusion.
So I think that we need to, at this particular point, get behind President Trump.
And muster all the force we can to push him forward and to get him through this process.
And that's one of the only ways we're going to overcome the weaponization of government that they're using to try to bring him down, right?
Because people ask all the time, why do they hate him so much?
They don't hate him. They hate the movement that he started.
They're not threatened by the man.
They hate you viewers of a show like this.
Listen, it's hard because I know he loves the idea of the debates and getting up and doing the thing and fighting back and doing that.
But A, of the people that he's running against, everyone can talk a big game, but how many of them are really going to go against the Swamp?
He's got nothing to lose.
One term, they've tried to put him in jail for 450 years.
So the gloves are off, so that's a good start.
Now he knows where the bodies are buried, so he can do that.
He has the experience.
I'm actually torn on this.
Do you give Kris Krispy Kreme Christy Do you give him three hours to basically work with a team of people to come up with anything else to weaponize it against you?
Like, do you even give him the airtime?
He's only there for that purpose.
Like, not to actually win a presidency or actually debate, but to try to take you out.
And when you have that big a lead, like, you know...
I don't know that it even makes sense to do it.
And that's just strategy, right?
Like, why would you give your enemy who's failing miserably a really good chance to land punches?
You know, Asa Hutchinson pulling at a solid 0%, you know, you're getting, like, I couldn't pick him out of a lineup, but I do this for a living.
You're going to let him, you know, work with a team of advisors and influencers so they can cramp on you.
They'll clip it and post it on social media like it's a cell phone.
The social media companies who hate Trump will promote that.
Like, why would you even do it?
Like, you know, the haters and, oh, he's afraid.
Like, I don't know. He did a CNN town hall last week.
He's not afraid of any of it. And I'm not even speaking for him.
I'm just like, why would you do it as a strategist?
Well, I think you're right. I just think I think it's a waste of time at this particular point because debates are no debates.
He's going to be the nominee. Why do we want to potentially weaken the nominee or at least try to weaken that?
And I think if anybody can can weather that storm, it's President Trump.
It's your father. I mean, you know, he would go through the debates and, you know, and you're right.
The debates won't have anything to do with policy.
It won't be a policy debate about anything.
Every single person on that stage will have one goal and one goal only.
And that's to try to tear down Donald Trump.
That will be the only purpose of the debates, right?
And I just don't see if as a party, if we want to win the White House back, why do we want to put our nominee through that, right?
Why don't we want to, you know, coalesce behind him and start campaigning for him?
These people should be getting behind him.
They should be going to talking to him.
You know, if they want to be a cabinet secretary or if they want to be vice president or whatever, they should get behind him right now and make the pitch, right?
So that whenever he comes in, he's got his team put together.
But, you know, coming after him and just trying to tear him down, which is that's all the debates are going to be, is just a complete waste of time, and it doesn't do our party any favors.
Yeah, no, I agree with you.
Talk a little bit about what's going on in the House.
House Republicans, what are some of the big goals you want to accomplish by the end of the year?
Obviously, you're working on a lot of cool things.
You're fighting back on a lot of stuff.
How do you judge how that's gone?
I think, you know, I think a lot of people have been sort of pleasantly surprised, right, given sort of how that started off with the speaker's race and everything.
You're getting it done. Do you feel you're getting the traction?
Are the Republicans pushing hard enough, understanding that they're going to be stalled every step of the way by the Democrat machine and, frankly, the rest of the swamp and the uni party?
How do you see that?
And what do you want to get done by the end of the year?
Well, I think it's going pretty well, to be honest with you.
I mean, we only have a five-seat majority, right?
And, you know, to watch the speaker's process was a little bit painful.
I understand people, you know, a lot of people were kind of frustrated by that.
We went through so many votes and we weren't able to elect the speaker right up front.
But there was a lot that happened behind the scenes that made this party a lot stronger.
And I think that that's what's happening right now.
We've got the far right in our party and the far left in our party.
And we're all coming together.
We're staying together as a team, despite the fact that there's probably more than five or six people that want to break at any particular point.
Kevin McCarthy's doing a pretty good job of herding the cats and keeping everybody together.
It's hard with Republicans, Don, because Republicans aren't like Democrats.
Democrats are sheep. They're sheep.
They would just follow blindly.
If Nancy Pelosi walked off the end of a cliff, the entire Democrat caucus would just walk right behind her and go off the edge of the cliff.
Republicans aren't like that.
They're independent thinkers, and that's good, and it's also bad when you're trying to put together a majority where you only have five people that you can lose.
But we're doing a pretty good job right now.
We're staying together. I think we've surprised the Democrats.
We've surprised the left by our ability to stay together.
I hope we can keep doing that.
We've got to make some real significant gains.
Kevin's been pretty conservative.
He's been pushing to make America great, keep America great agenda pretty aggressively.
I want to keep doing that.
I want to completely expose and get rid of this weaponization of government.
I think that's huge. It's one of the biggest problems, if not the biggest problem in our government right now, is the fact that we're using entities like the FBI and DOJ to come after political opponents and try to put people in jail and destroy their careers.
The press has been complicit in doing that for a long time, but now we actually have law enforcement You know, within our government that are doing that on behalf of the Democrats.
That's terrifying. That is absolutely terrifying.
So we need to fix that. We need to make our military strong again.
We need to, like we talked about earlier, get this DEI CRT garbage out of our military.
We don't need to spend a single penny in our military unless it's focused on defeating China.
That's all we need to be thinking about right now is defeating China, period.
We need to get our reputation back overseas.
Afghanistan was an absolute embarrassment.
We've seen the reports that have come out even this week talking about what a disaster it was.
We need to repair our reputation overseas.
We need to be a leader again.
We need people following us, not laughing at us overseas.
Those are some of the big things I want to work on.
I want to make America great again.
I want people to respect this country again.
And I want to put America first in everything we do.
And that's, you know, to be truthful, that is the reason that your father was successful for the time that he was in the White House.
And the reason that we need him back is because if you really boil it down and you pick apart everything he does, it always goes back to America first.
America first drives everything he does.
And, you know, whether you like his style or not, people respect that.
Yeah, listen, again, you may not always like the style, but the results.
And maybe the style was also a little bit influenced by the fact that basically he was fighting with everyone.
The people who pretended they wanted to do the things that he wanted to do didn't really be behind the scenes.
The media lying about him, his family, others for years.
I mean, maybe the demeanor that some people didn't like was created by...
You know, six years of Russia, Russia, Russia lies.
I mean, they called him a traitor. They wanted to put me in jail.
They wanted to put him in jail. They impeached him twice.
Like, what was so bad?
Like, name the policy.
You know, was peace in the Middle East so bad?
Was energy independence so bad?
Was prosperity so terrible?
Like, none of those things were bad.
But, you know, if you didn't like the demeanor, maybe it was because of the sort of unnecessary, gratuitous attacks from, you know, a heavily biased media and a uniparty in Washington, D.C. Yeah, no, you're absolutely right.
I mean, I think that people that don't know your father don't have an accurate impression of him.
Most of us do, but the ones that watch CNN and MSNBC all day, certainly, they've been brainwashed to think otherwise.
And so I think that they look at the policies.
Even those people, Don, even those people that have been brainwashed, You know, and heard all these horrible things about your father and about your family and stuff.
They still want him back.
And that's because what he did was so important for our country.
And what Joe Biden is doing is so devastating to our country that they don't care about that stuff anymore.
They just want Donald Trump back in office to make things like they were.
Well, you know, I think that's what we all want.
And, you know, it's interesting. I'm reading the comments here just down below from people sort of, you know, live streaming the comments.
They sort of agree about my thoughts on the debates.
Like, why would you give some of the clowns even that shot at the title, you know, when you know what it is, right?
It'd be one thing. It'd be actually having a thing.
But some of the comments were actually interesting.
It would be Trump debating the moderators.
The moderators themselves would jump in in the attack.
So that's sort of interesting.
We've seen that before. Yeah, well, guys, thank you for commenting live.

Well, it's my pleasure. And, you know, just so you guys know, meaning the audience, you know, Ronnie, in talking with him when he was at the White House, you know, I had an awesome Secret Service detail, became really good friends, lifelong friends with a lot of these guys.
And to a T, They said Ronnie Jackson was the man.
When they were traveling, before they were on My Detail and they were traveling with the president or foreign lands, 36-hour shifts, just crazy, crazy schedules.
They were like, that guy was always up.
Anything we needed, if anyone got sick, he was all...
They sing your praises literally more than anyone you could ever even imagine.
So that was all it took for me to be a Ronnie Jackson believer.
So thanks for all you're doing, buddy.
I really appreciate it. Guys, give him a...

And if you're going to be drinking coffee, check out the folks at Blackout Coffee.
I have a feeling you're going to drink coffee anyway.
I know I drink about six cups a day, which is why I'm as hyper as I am.
Not what the media says or what those on leftist Twitter say, that I got the Hunter Biden problem.
It's just that I drink probably about 1,500 milligrams of caffeine a day, so it's crazy.
But blackout coffee, it's American-made, family-owned.
They support your values.
They do it all in-house while never compromising or taste on quality.
They love... Freedom-loving values.
So go to blackoutcoffee.com slash Don Jr.

For those, again, I couldn't keep up with a lot of the questions today, a lot of flow, but I'll head over there right now and do a little bit of locals.
I'll see you guys there. Thanks a lot, and otherwise I'll be back on Monday.
