Radio. Look good afternoon, Bill
Martinez here, and we're going to be

8
00:00:42.000 --> 00:00:46.759
joined with Lieutenant Governor Winsome Earl Sears
in a moment to talk about her new

9
00:00:46.799 --> 00:00:50.799
memoir, How Sweet it Is,
Defending the American Dream. She's the first

10
00:00:50.840 --> 00:00:56.240
black woman elected to statewide office in
Virginia. She reveals in her memoir How

11
00:00:56.240 --> 00:01:03.560
Are Christian Faith? Unwavering patriotism and
fervent commitment to conservative principles propelled her to

12
00:01:03.600 --> 00:01:07.879
serve and sacrifice for her country and
a better future. She joins us now

13
00:01:07.920 --> 00:01:11.959
to tell her story from her new
book, How Sweet It Is. She

14
00:01:12.120 --> 00:01:17.719
sent shock waves across Virginia and the
country at large when she pulled off her

15
00:01:17.760 --> 00:01:22.920
stunning upset victory in November of twenty
twenty one and became the first woman lieutenant

16
00:01:22.920 --> 00:01:26.000
governor of Virginia and the first black
woman, as I mentioned, the first

17
00:01:26.079 --> 00:01:34.319
naturalized female citizen and first female veteran
elected to statewide office. Governor. Welcome

18
00:01:34.359 --> 00:01:37.959
the show. Good to have you
with us. Thank you for having me.

19
00:01:38.000 --> 00:01:40.799
It's been to be with you.
Well, first of all, because

20
00:01:40.840 --> 00:01:45.359
we're fellow Maringes, I have to
say semper five. Okay, semper five,

21
00:01:45.719 --> 00:01:51.040
do or die? Amen? Amen? Well, November twenty twenty one,

22
00:01:51.760 --> 00:01:56.760
you shocked the Commonwealth. You shocked
the country. So are we still

23
00:01:56.799 --> 00:02:04.280
having fun? Well? That's to
call it because they say is a contact

24
00:02:04.280 --> 00:02:07.840
export and in some cases apparently it's
it's truly that, But you know,

25
00:02:08.039 --> 00:02:13.800
it's it's more of we really have
to come together as Bill. If we

26
00:02:13.840 --> 00:02:16.199
don't, we're going to tear our
country apart. And we can't afford that.

27
00:02:16.319 --> 00:02:19.800
Some people are, you know,
just wanting to burn the whole thing

28
00:02:19.879 --> 00:02:23.599
down, when all we have to
do is to continue this wonderful American experiment.

29
00:02:23.639 --> 00:02:29.199
We are continuing to change because how
ELL's Bill, could I could I

30
00:02:29.360 --> 00:02:34.280
be here second in command in the
former capital of the Confederate States. Come

31
00:02:34.319 --> 00:02:38.120
on, exactly, yeah, exactly, well, said Lieutenant Governor. And

32
00:02:38.800 --> 00:02:42.599
the fact of the matter is is
you know, being a woman of faith,

33
00:02:42.639 --> 00:02:45.360
as I am a man of faith, we know from the Book of

34
00:02:45.400 --> 00:02:50.199
Ecclesiastics, it's time and season.
So we have to measure the time and

35
00:02:50.840 --> 00:02:55.680
the solution for the season that we're
in. And I think that you know,

36
00:02:55.800 --> 00:03:01.319
Conservatives as a rule want to they're
open to debate, they're open to

37
00:03:01.439 --> 00:03:08.840
sharing ideas, but the left seems
untenable. A recent ros A Real Clear

38
00:03:08.960 --> 00:03:16.680
Politics survey demonstrated that quite clearly that
almost half of Democrats do not believe in

39
00:03:16.719 --> 00:03:21.639
the First Amendment. Well, you
know that's a problem from the get go,

40
00:03:21.840 --> 00:03:25.400
isn't it. It absolutely is,
because that's one of the reasons that

41
00:03:25.520 --> 00:03:30.800
make America America. That you can
speak your mind, Bill and you won't

42
00:03:30.840 --> 00:03:37.120
have to worry about not knock on
the door because someone doesn't like what you

43
00:03:37.240 --> 00:03:40.560
said. I mean, it's starting
to really infantrate even places like Canada.

44
00:03:40.680 --> 00:03:45.159
You know, we're thinking what the
world has happened to us? And in

45
00:03:45.199 --> 00:03:49.400
fact, Virginia is the state that
brought the Bill of Rights. As you

46
00:03:49.599 --> 00:03:53.319
as you recall to the rest of
the thirteen colonies to say, yes,

47
00:03:53.439 --> 00:03:57.800
this is what we want and we're
going to get it. And then,

48
00:03:57.800 --> 00:04:00.120
of course we have the Second Amendment, which, as some people claim,

49
00:04:00.479 --> 00:04:05.520
back up the First Amendment exactly we're
not giving up our rights. Well,

50
00:04:05.560 --> 00:04:10.240
thank god for the Commonwealth of Virginia. Had it not been, you know,

51
00:04:10.560 --> 00:04:15.240
for the Commonwealth, dare I say, Lieutenant Governor, that we would

52
00:04:15.400 --> 00:04:19.839
never have been able to realize this
great American experiment. It would almost died

53
00:04:19.959 --> 00:04:27.839
after birth. Yes, because when
the Articles of Confederation weren't working, and

54
00:04:28.199 --> 00:04:31.839
all of the thirteen colonies knew that. When they came to the Constitutional Convention

55
00:04:31.920 --> 00:04:36.439
to make things better, well,
the rest of the colonies wanted to tweak

56
00:04:36.600 --> 00:04:42.480
the Articles of Confederation, but the
Virginia delegation, consisting of George Washington,

57
00:04:42.519 --> 00:04:46.639
mister Jefferson, and some others,
brought a whole new idea about the three

58
00:04:46.720 --> 00:04:51.800
branches of government and really to change
things into what we have today. So

59
00:04:53.560 --> 00:04:58.680
and then, of course, as
I mentioned the Bill of Rights, where

60
00:04:58.720 --> 00:05:01.360
we already had that Bill of Rights
in Virginia, we gave it to the

61
00:05:01.399 --> 00:05:03.959
rest of the country as a model. And so, you know, with

62
00:05:04.040 --> 00:05:09.160
a few tweeks we adopted it.
But Bill, my dad came to America

63
00:05:09.199 --> 00:05:14.240
from Jamaica just seventeen days before Martin
Luther King Junior gave his I Have a

64
00:05:14.319 --> 00:05:17.279
Dream speech. He only came with
a dollar seventy five and he came at

65
00:05:17.279 --> 00:05:21.759
the height of the civil rights movement. And when I asked him, why

66
00:05:21.759 --> 00:05:25.439
did you come, I mean,
you beg to come into this country,

67
00:05:25.519 --> 00:05:29.680
got your documents together and waited until
they allowed you, And he said,

68
00:05:29.720 --> 00:05:34.079
because this is where the jobs and
the opportunities were. And Bill, it

69
00:05:34.199 --> 00:05:39.160
still is that. You know who
tells us that by their actions, the

70
00:05:39.279 --> 00:05:44.360
people at the southern border, who
are literally throwing their children over the fence.

71
00:05:44.800 --> 00:05:48.920
Right so they want America to stay
America. They can't believe more in

72
00:05:48.959 --> 00:05:53.759
America than we do. No,
No, just want them to do the

73
00:05:53.839 --> 00:05:59.959
right way. But like your father
and my great grandparents before Lieutenant Governor,

74
00:06:00.959 --> 00:06:03.240
there needs to be the rule of
law. They need to be protected when

75
00:06:03.639 --> 00:06:08.600
these people are coming across and they're
being sex traffic, they're being used as

76
00:06:08.680 --> 00:06:13.480
drug mules, they're being manipulated and
controlled by the cartels. I mean back

77
00:06:13.519 --> 00:06:15.879
in the days. You know,
when you talk about your story of your

78
00:06:15.920 --> 00:06:21.040
father. The consistent theme was was
number one, they loved America. They

79
00:06:21.079 --> 00:06:26.319
wanted to come to America. Number
two, they wanted to assimilate. They

80
00:06:26.360 --> 00:06:31.079
wanted to add to this great American
idea, and you know, and number

81
00:06:31.120 --> 00:06:35.879
three they wanted the same thing for
their families. Today, the immigrants that

82
00:06:35.920 --> 00:06:40.959
are coming in, they have mixed
loyalties and this is going to be a

83
00:06:41.040 --> 00:06:45.720
generational issue, I believe down the
road, especially because of the influence of

84
00:06:45.759 --> 00:06:49.680
the cartels. Well, what we
know from history, as someone once said,

85
00:06:49.720 --> 00:06:53.720
what we know from history, though, is that we don't learn from

86
00:06:53.759 --> 00:06:57.399
history. Yes, right, we
think we're always going to do things differently,

87
00:06:57.639 --> 00:07:00.160
in a better way. There was
no better way to do socialism.

88
00:07:00.560 --> 00:07:05.360
There was no better way to do
communism. It doesn't work. They tried

89
00:07:05.399 --> 00:07:09.720
that in Jamaica. We had a
prime minister come to power, declared that

90
00:07:09.759 --> 00:07:14.639
we were now a socialist democrat country. Where have you heard that bill?

91
00:07:14.800 --> 00:07:20.639
That's right, Alexander Kezia Clartes,
it doesn't work. Castro brought the Russian

92
00:07:20.639 --> 00:07:24.959
money, started building things in Jamaica, said we were, you know,

93
00:07:25.120 --> 00:07:30.959
a socialist and of course the businesses
understood profits didn't belong to them. The

94
00:07:30.120 --> 00:07:35.839
brain drain happened. It destroyed Jamaica, which is just really now coming back

95
00:07:35.879 --> 00:07:41.079
into her own. We're not going
down that path. We need to make

96
00:07:41.120 --> 00:07:45.839
sure that there's free enterprise. We
need to make sure there's limited government.

97
00:07:46.160 --> 00:07:48.720
We need to make sure that people
can speak their minds and live to see

98
00:07:48.759 --> 00:07:53.839
another day. Bill, that is
the America. We want the American dream.

99
00:07:54.160 --> 00:07:57.399
Get off my grass, I pay
the mortgage or the rent around here

100
00:07:57.800 --> 00:08:01.480
exactly, Well, we need to
return to principles, and the first principle,

101
00:08:01.519 --> 00:08:05.079
the highest first principle is liberty.
Liberty that doesn't come from the government,

102
00:08:05.120 --> 00:08:09.560
comes from God Almighty himself. And
when you are in a post Christian

103
00:08:09.000 --> 00:08:13.439
modern world you know that we live
in, well, how's that working for

104
00:08:13.480 --> 00:08:18.160
you? Look at how you know
this, uh, you know, post

105
00:08:18.279 --> 00:08:22.240
Christian modernization. What it's done to
destroy the you know, the the nuclear

106
00:08:22.360 --> 00:08:30.279
family, what it's done to destroy
education, every institution that supposedly is supposed

107
00:08:30.319 --> 00:08:35.039
to serve us, everything's upside down, Lieutenant Governor, Yes, Bill,

108
00:08:35.080 --> 00:08:37.919
I would agree with you. I
would say that our Judeo Christian values are

109
00:08:37.919 --> 00:08:41.720
really going to be destroyed, and
not that we don't want, you know,

110
00:08:41.840 --> 00:08:45.559
other faiths that's not what we're saying
at all. This is America.

111
00:08:45.639 --> 00:08:48.399
You practice your faith right, but
you know you have to believe in something

112
00:08:48.440 --> 00:08:52.720
other than yourself because otherwise you are
the be all and the end all.

113
00:08:52.799 --> 00:08:56.919
And then we have dictatorships. Bill. The first form of government is self

114
00:08:56.960 --> 00:09:01.240
government, because you don't govern yoursel
self, surely the government will do it

115
00:09:01.279 --> 00:09:05.799
for you. And then we need
the family to learn how to be in

116
00:09:05.919 --> 00:09:09.000
society. We want to raise up
our children that they understand that they have

117
00:09:09.240 --> 00:09:13.399
value, they have strength, and
that they have the education that they need

118
00:09:13.480 --> 00:09:18.200
to launch and by the way,
that they understand that their job is no

119
00:09:18.440 --> 00:09:24.480
less than preserving America or the next
generation. Bill. But we's got to

120
00:09:24.519 --> 00:09:26.919
get all that together. It but
when we don't even know who a woman

121
00:09:28.039 --> 00:09:33.320
is, it confuses our children,
It confuses society, It breaks society further

122
00:09:33.440 --> 00:09:37.200
down. And then you see,
we get the muff that we give because

123
00:09:37.240 --> 00:09:43.679
now we have someone's moooving in as
a political savior that we supposedly need.

124
00:09:43.720 --> 00:09:46.559
We don't need any political saviors,
Bill, We just need them to get

125
00:09:46.600 --> 00:09:50.000
out of our way so we can
get our lives in order. That's it.

126
00:09:50.440 --> 00:09:54.320
That's it. Yeah, it is
pretty simple. Lieutenant Governor Winston Earl

127
00:09:54.440 --> 00:09:58.399
Sears is our guest her book,
How Sweet it is defending the American Dream.

128
00:10:00.240 --> 00:10:03.159
As you mentioned, Lieutenant Governor,
you know, when you consider the

129
00:10:03.240 --> 00:10:11.519
cumulative intelligence of what three hundred fifty
million people, we've got quite a brain

130
00:10:11.559 --> 00:10:16.480
trust here amongst everyday sistens. This
is why the power and our founding fathers

131
00:10:16.559 --> 00:10:20.759
understood this. The power of our
First Amendment right is that when we're sharing

132
00:10:20.879 --> 00:10:26.000
ideas regardless of party, it's not
about party. It's not about Republican or

133
00:10:26.080 --> 00:10:31.159
Democrat. It's about this great American
idea. When we reduce ourselves to partisanship,

134
00:10:31.519 --> 00:10:35.799
that's when we're at each other's throats
and it becomes untenable. Just as

135
00:10:35.799 --> 00:10:41.519
we're experiencing the America that most people
are saying, I'm not happy with this.

136
00:10:41.720 --> 00:10:46.120
Listen, we have to get off
the sidelines and jump down into the

137
00:10:46.159 --> 00:10:50.840
arena. That's what we have to
do. We have to be willing to

138
00:10:50.879 --> 00:10:54.720
face the lions, because America could
not have come into her own had there

139
00:10:54.759 --> 00:11:01.320
not been the founders who decided that
after they declared they signed the Declaration of

140
00:11:01.360 --> 00:11:07.480
Independence, they were declaring that they
were not supporting any longer the British government

141
00:11:07.600 --> 00:11:11.879
and the British country, and they
knew that they could be charged with treason,

142
00:11:11.960 --> 00:11:13.519
et cetera. And in fact,
so many of them lost quite a

143
00:11:13.559 --> 00:11:18.600
bit. In fact, some of
them lost even their lives. So you

144
00:11:18.799 --> 00:11:20.840
have to be willing to do your
part, you know, build that part

145
00:11:20.840 --> 00:11:24.240
about of the people, by the
people, and for the people. Well,

146
00:11:24.720 --> 00:11:28.720
y'all are the people. I'm not
the only one in politics. We

147
00:11:28.960 --> 00:11:33.399
all are. It takes all of
us to come together to vote, to

148
00:11:33.480 --> 00:11:39.000
either bring ourselves as the candidate or
to support the candidate. Find out what

149
00:11:39.320 --> 00:11:43.720
you know people want for our country, and then get behind that person.

150
00:11:43.759 --> 00:11:46.960
If you've got five dollars, good
grief, give it to the candidate.

151
00:11:46.120 --> 00:11:50.200
You can afford more, do that, but but do your part. We

152
00:11:50.320 --> 00:11:56.200
have the wonderful privilege of getting the
ability to vote for whomever and go to

153
00:11:56.240 --> 00:11:58.440
sleep and know we live to see
another day. Well, what makes us

154
00:11:58.480 --> 00:12:03.480
so power full, you know,
as Tokaville witness for himself when he came

155
00:12:03.519 --> 00:12:07.879
here to the United States, is, like you said, is the power

156
00:12:07.919 --> 00:12:11.759
of the people. Those three incredible
words from the Declaration of Independence, We

157
00:12:11.960 --> 00:12:16.440
the people. That is an activating
statement isn't in and of itself, isn't

158
00:12:16.440 --> 00:12:22.000
it. Yes, we the people, and as we said, y'all are

159
00:12:22.200 --> 00:12:26.360
the people. We all are the
people. And there are so many other

160
00:12:26.399 --> 00:12:28.919
cuts. You know, here's the
thing, Bill, we need peace through

161
00:12:28.960 --> 00:12:35.759
strength. So we need a military
that is ready to go. We need

162
00:12:35.919 --> 00:12:39.799
our arms, we need the missiles, that everything ready to the personnel,

163
00:12:39.919 --> 00:12:43.240
we need the training ready to go
because the rest of the world is not

164
00:12:43.320 --> 00:12:46.799
stopping form. Oh no, not
at all. The girl the rushes of

165
00:12:46.840 --> 00:12:52.559
the world of South Koreas, et
cetera. They have their act together and

166
00:12:52.879 --> 00:12:56.960
they want to be the superpower.
In fact, China was slated to be

167
00:12:56.000 --> 00:13:01.120
the number one superpower in seven years
by the twenty thirty except they shut their

168
00:13:01.120 --> 00:13:07.360
country down so badly during COVID that
that might be an issue. But they

169
00:13:07.440 --> 00:13:13.600
still have the educated workforce that's necessary, the educated military. So we can't

170
00:13:13.600 --> 00:13:16.519
afford to fool ourselves into thinking that, well, you know, we can

171
00:13:16.759 --> 00:13:20.919
go off and talk about what women
and black and white and all this nonsense

172
00:13:22.039 --> 00:13:26.399
when the rest of the world is
moving on without us. Exactly. Yeah,

173
00:13:26.440 --> 00:13:28.200
it's got to be about winning wars. It can't be about pronouns.

174
00:13:28.600 --> 00:13:33.519
And when you when you have a
general, you know, saying that he's

175
00:13:33.639 --> 00:13:39.799
most proud of I diverse. You
know military, Wait a minute, you

176
00:13:39.840 --> 00:13:46.559
don't win wars with diversity. I'm
sorry, you win wars because you're the

177
00:13:46.679 --> 00:13:50.600
stronger candidate. And that's what we
have to do. You know, we've

178
00:13:50.720 --> 00:13:52.279
we've heard well, you know,
we need to get rid of the military

179
00:13:52.399 --> 00:13:56.879
or reduce them. Folks. If
we do that, you know what happens

180
00:13:56.919 --> 00:14:01.720
to the Constitution. If our military
and twin when we are overrun by our

181
00:14:01.759 --> 00:14:07.039
foreign adversaries, they take the Constitution
and tear it up exactly. That's what

182
00:14:07.360 --> 00:14:11.440
that means. So we have to
go to the Reagan standard, which is

183
00:14:11.759 --> 00:14:16.679
peace through strength. That's all the
other countries understand. They understand nothing else.

184
00:14:16.759 --> 00:14:20.960
And their bullies. And you know
what happens with a bully. You

185
00:14:20.039 --> 00:14:24.000
give him an inch, he's going
to take a mile. You give him

186
00:14:24.039 --> 00:14:26.799
a mile, he's going to take
the country. We can't afford that.

187
00:14:26.159 --> 00:14:31.639
Well, as we learned in the
sandbox and in kindergarten, right when you

188
00:14:31.679 --> 00:14:33.320
were a face to face with a
bully, you had to bully back a

189
00:14:33.360 --> 00:14:39.240
bully otherwise they were going to own
you for the rest of your your educational

190
00:14:39.240 --> 00:14:43.600
career. Right, yes, yes, that's why we have to make them

191
00:14:43.679 --> 00:14:48.320
understand that America is still that great
city on the shining city on a hill,

192
00:14:48.679 --> 00:14:52.159
that we're not going anywhere, that
we are going back to the basics.

193
00:14:52.679 --> 00:14:56.799
Basis are of course for education,
reading, writing, with metic science,

194
00:14:56.840 --> 00:15:01.879
technology, all that. We need
our children to have a good education

195
00:15:01.960 --> 00:15:05.120
bill so that they can launch into
the future. That's what we need.

196
00:15:05.559 --> 00:15:09.440
Well, you saw this in Virginia. I mean you look at all the

197
00:15:09.480 --> 00:15:15.320
money that's invested in education, and
we got off track. They lost sight

198
00:15:15.399 --> 00:15:18.279
of what their mission was all about. And it took you and Governor Yuncan

199
00:15:18.320 --> 00:15:24.240
and the leadership of the Republican Party
there in the Commonwealth to write the ship.

200
00:15:24.559 --> 00:15:28.240
But the fact the matter is,
as though it was quite a resounding

201
00:15:28.360 --> 00:15:33.840
victory, it was just a battle
one, battle one, and the battles

202
00:15:33.960 --> 00:15:39.440
continue, don't they. Well,
I've got to tell you remember how it

203
00:15:39.639 --> 00:15:43.080
was. So after the twenty twenty
presidential election, you know, we were

204
00:15:43.159 --> 00:15:48.480
broken hearted, right and so were
But here in Virginia we had a google

205
00:15:48.559 --> 00:15:54.519
natural election that we had to put
on, and so we presented ourselves as

206
00:15:54.639 --> 00:16:00.240
the folks who are with the good
ideas the consense ideas. The idea is

207
00:16:00.279 --> 00:16:03.159
that we're not going to tear parents
from their children. The school boards,

208
00:16:03.159 --> 00:16:07.559
we were going to ensure they understood
that parents are in charge, not they.

209
00:16:07.679 --> 00:16:12.039
We were going to make sure that
we didn't defund the police bill because

210
00:16:12.080 --> 00:16:17.279
remember we had in some of these
other states where they were even setting up

211
00:16:17.960 --> 00:16:22.919
what foreign countries within states? Remember
that in Wisconsin? What is a country

212
00:16:22.960 --> 00:16:26.639
of chat or something like that.
And then were they were burning down cities

213
00:16:26.679 --> 00:16:33.159
everywhere. And I remember CNN there
was a reporter standing behind them and the

214
00:16:33.159 --> 00:16:34.879
police was burning and he said,
Oh, it's just a little fire.

215
00:16:34.919 --> 00:16:40.000
What are you talking about. It's
burning, It's mostly mostly peaceful. He

216
00:16:40.080 --> 00:16:44.759
said, I thought that was mostly
peaceful. And TIFA was we what was

217
00:16:44.799 --> 00:16:49.440
a problem? Occupied Wall Street?
We the country was a mess, and

218
00:16:51.039 --> 00:16:57.039
we want in Virginia because we were
able to convince enough Democrats and enough independence

219
00:16:57.639 --> 00:17:03.120
that finally we have to come together. We're going to make it so that

220
00:17:03.240 --> 00:17:07.440
common sense rules. We're going to
make it so that we're not at each

221
00:17:07.480 --> 00:17:11.759
other's throats, that once we win, we're going to govern equally. We're

222
00:17:11.799 --> 00:17:17.000
going to make sure that everybody has
opportunity, not equity, because you cannot

223
00:17:17.039 --> 00:17:22.400
guarantee equal outcomes in life, you
cannot do that. We can guarantee you

224
00:17:22.720 --> 00:17:26.880
that we will give everybody a seat
at the table. That's what we're going

225
00:17:26.960 --> 00:17:29.880
to do. And so we were
able to win. But you see these

226
00:17:29.920 --> 00:17:33.319
these school boards, some of them, they're still gone rogue and they're driving

227
00:17:33.359 --> 00:17:37.200
teachers out of the profession because the
teachers don't know from one week to the

228
00:17:37.240 --> 00:17:41.319
next what's the new thing coming down. I never went to school for this.

229
00:17:41.359 --> 00:17:45.519
I just want to teach, and
you know, yes, and you're

230
00:17:45.559 --> 00:17:49.960
making it so difficult, this is
so political. Just let's teach, right,

231
00:17:51.279 --> 00:17:56.240
Let's again go back to first principles. Teach the basics. That's what

232
00:17:56.359 --> 00:18:00.359
parents want, that's what the kids
need in order to, you know,

233
00:18:00.799 --> 00:18:06.720
after they graduate that they have a
fair chance at being successful in their careers

234
00:18:07.160 --> 00:18:11.400
because they've been taught how to critically
think. They've been taught how to use

235
00:18:11.680 --> 00:18:17.599
the language correctly, not to obliterate
the language, and to redefine words in

236
00:18:17.640 --> 00:18:22.200
such a way that it becomes you
know, everything political to your point,

237
00:18:22.240 --> 00:18:27.279
Lieutenant Governor, yes, and you
know where we even have in Virginia.

238
00:18:27.759 --> 00:18:33.680
And this is just shocking because I'm
sorry, this is outright murder. We

239
00:18:33.799 --> 00:18:37.119
had a delegate, a state rep
you would call it an other states,

240
00:18:37.519 --> 00:18:41.960
where she brought a bill forward where
you could have an abortion up until the

241
00:18:42.079 --> 00:18:47.480
time that the baby could be borne. And they did not even blink an

242
00:18:47.480 --> 00:18:52.119
eye. And then our governor at
the time, north a pediatric surgeon,

243
00:18:52.720 --> 00:18:55.640
got on the radio and said,
well, this is how it happened.

244
00:18:55.640 --> 00:19:00.440
The baby would be born. We
would keep the infant comfortable until the parents

245
00:19:00.480 --> 00:19:02.640
decide what to do. What do
you mean decide what to do? The

246
00:19:02.640 --> 00:19:07.079
babies already here leaving on its own. You know if you said it was

247
00:19:07.079 --> 00:19:10.279
your body, Well, now here's
the baby. And what are we talking

248
00:19:10.319 --> 00:19:15.599
about? Is this murder? So
yeah, we've gone so far and believe

249
00:19:15.680 --> 00:19:18.839
it or not, Bill, we
had the Democrats saying the reason why we

250
00:19:18.960 --> 00:19:25.839
won and not they was because the
Democrats had not gone far enough, far

251
00:19:26.160 --> 00:19:30.200
enough. You've shut our businesses down, you've shut our houses of worship down,

252
00:19:30.559 --> 00:19:34.680
you've shut our schools down, and
then you've told us exactly how to

253
00:19:34.759 --> 00:19:38.759
run our lives. And now you're
talking about what you haven't gone far enough.

254
00:19:40.160 --> 00:19:42.200
So I haven't learned anything, but
we've got an election this year,

255
00:19:42.640 --> 00:19:47.880
and we're wanting to make sure that
we keep the House and we win back

256
00:19:47.920 --> 00:19:51.920
the Senate where I'm the president.
Because this we've got to bring common sense

257
00:19:51.960 --> 00:19:56.599
back. Yeah, without a doubt. We're talking with Lieutenant Governor Winsome Earl

258
00:19:56.720 --> 00:20:02.519
sears her book, how sweet it
is defend ending the American Dream. Uh.

259
00:20:02.799 --> 00:20:07.440
Gunner, you talk about abortion a
huge, huge issue. Uh.

260
00:20:07.480 --> 00:20:11.599
In fact, you know, the
pundits would say the Red Wave didn't happen

261
00:20:12.279 --> 00:20:17.359
because of the reversal of Roeweb Wade. And I got to tell you,

262
00:20:17.400 --> 00:20:22.519
I disagree. I disagree with that
premise. I think that the Republican Party

263
00:20:22.039 --> 00:20:27.400
needs to know how to frame the
issue of abortion because the fact of the

264
00:20:27.440 --> 00:20:33.720
matter, the organic response as a
result of of Roe v. Wade and

265
00:20:33.720 --> 00:20:40.680
the Dobb's decision going back to the
States where even Democratic uh you know,

266
00:20:40.759 --> 00:20:45.640
justices agreed that it should be Ruth
Bader Ginsburg agreed that it should be back

267
00:20:45.680 --> 00:20:49.720
in the States. Uh. Now
to this day, you've got you've got

268
00:20:49.759 --> 00:20:57.640
twice as many uh you know,
Christian operated or life supporting pregnancy centers as

269
00:20:57.720 --> 00:21:03.519
the pose to play and parenthood plant
parenthood is half of what it is and

270
00:21:03.559 --> 00:21:07.359
what I say is that I find
it quite interesting when Plant Parenthood says that

271
00:21:07.559 --> 00:21:14.440
ninety seven percent of what they do
is about healthcare for women. Well,

272
00:21:14.480 --> 00:21:19.319
if that's the case, why did
so many go under if ninety seven percent

273
00:21:19.359 --> 00:21:25.079
of what they provided was healthcare for
women? Well, you see, this

274
00:21:25.200 --> 00:21:29.519
is it's all a farce and you
have to see through the lies. And

275
00:21:30.240 --> 00:21:33.960
we know that for example, in
Virginia, we're pushing for a fifteen week

276
00:21:33.240 --> 00:21:38.039
bill. We're pushing for fifteen weeks
because that's when the baby feels pain.

277
00:21:38.799 --> 00:21:44.440
And what kind of people are we
that we want to inflict pain on an

278
00:21:45.079 --> 00:21:48.599
baby in the womb? And we
have to ask then the Democrats, well,

279
00:21:48.640 --> 00:21:53.839
what is your limit? Exactly weeks? But their limit is all the

280
00:21:53.880 --> 00:21:57.720
way up until the day that the
baby could be born. But they don't

281
00:21:57.759 --> 00:22:02.079
say, but they don't say that. They do everything they can to skirt

282
00:22:02.119 --> 00:22:06.960
around that answer. Have you noticed
We've got to make them answer, because

283
00:22:07.759 --> 00:22:12.039
this is are we are righteous country? Our barbarians? Who are we?

284
00:22:12.440 --> 00:22:19.240
Have we come so far from our
founding that we now engage in pretty much

285
00:22:19.359 --> 00:22:26.319
Roman? Do you know the Roman
government was destroyed from within, not from

286
00:22:26.319 --> 00:22:30.640
without it exactly? And again we
learn from history. We don't learn from

287
00:22:30.680 --> 00:22:33.519
history, So why don't we just
go ahead and do the right thing at

288
00:22:33.640 --> 00:22:38.599
least fifteen weeks. Fifteen weeks is
when the baby feels pain. Let's get

289
00:22:38.599 --> 00:22:44.039
it done. Governor. Can we
have a conversation with these young girls?

290
00:22:44.720 --> 00:22:48.559
I say these, and I want
to have it with the young boys too,

291
00:22:48.200 --> 00:22:52.799
but with the girls especially, you
know, because what what's happened is

292
00:22:52.839 --> 00:22:59.000
the culture has said, this is
my body, it's my right. But

293
00:22:59.079 --> 00:23:03.720
what they failed to say it's my
responsibility and for them to consider, you

294
00:23:03.720 --> 00:23:08.720
know, I just feel like we
need to help educate them and understand what's

295
00:23:08.839 --> 00:23:12.759
involved here. What it takes,
you know, to raise a child in

296
00:23:12.799 --> 00:23:19.079
today's America, how costly it is, and what needs to be considered before

297
00:23:19.599 --> 00:23:26.119
you enter into a casual hookup,
what it does to your future, and

298
00:23:26.519 --> 00:23:32.519
how it works against you and puts
the odds against you and your child and

299
00:23:32.640 --> 00:23:38.079
your family potentially down the road,
when we involve ourselves with risky behavior,

300
00:23:38.279 --> 00:23:45.319
and when you've got forty percent of
abortions happening in Black America twenty five percent

301
00:23:45.480 --> 00:23:49.720
in Hispanics. Uh, you know, it's like I want to get everybody

302
00:23:49.720 --> 00:23:56.279
together to realize that this has been
a system that has been perpetrated upon our

303
00:23:56.319 --> 00:24:00.640
own weaknesses, and when we've fallen
victim to this, we we've willfully gone

304
00:24:00.680 --> 00:24:07.960
into this out of convenience in thinking
that it's okay to waste a life,

305
00:24:08.599 --> 00:24:17.960
and that has ramifications that are generationally
involved. And this is why after you

306
00:24:18.000 --> 00:24:22.920
know, fifty years of Roby Wade
from nineteen seventy three, when Democrats and

307
00:24:22.960 --> 00:24:26.160
the Supreme Court said, oh,
don't worry, it's going to be safe

308
00:24:26.160 --> 00:24:30.279
and rare, well one hundred and
million, one hundred million babies later,

309
00:24:30.240 --> 00:24:36.960
not so not so rare. And
certainly when you understand how many women died

310
00:24:37.480 --> 00:24:41.880
in the process of an abortion,
how they've been affected, how you know,

311
00:24:41.920 --> 00:24:45.880
to this day, Governor, when
I talk with women, women will

312
00:24:45.880 --> 00:24:48.440
tell me sadly. They will say, Bill, you know, my child

313
00:24:48.519 --> 00:24:52.079
would have been thirteen today, or
my child would have been fifteen. That

314
00:24:52.200 --> 00:24:56.400
is a heartache that they carry with
them until the day they die. But

315
00:24:57.079 --> 00:25:03.799
women and men who casually go into
these abortion factories, so casually they have

316
00:25:03.079 --> 00:25:08.680
no idea what they're doing and the
ramifications that are involved, is that fair

317
00:25:08.720 --> 00:25:14.200
to say? That's absolutely fair?
And I think it's because we have a

318
00:25:14.279 --> 00:25:18.680
breakdown in our society. We don't
have our families anymore, you know.

319
00:25:19.240 --> 00:25:22.640
And we find out that, for
example, in the black community, I

320
00:25:22.680 --> 00:25:29.119
think it's about seventy five percent of
all births are too single parents exactly.

321
00:25:29.680 --> 00:25:33.440
That's the recipe for disaster. And
in fact, we see what's happening.

322
00:25:33.480 --> 00:25:37.640
We've got a breakdown when we know
that black people make up about I think

323
00:25:37.720 --> 00:25:45.519
it's a twelve exactly, and yet
we have forty percent of the abortions.

324
00:25:45.559 --> 00:25:48.319
We're not having our babies, that's
right. And then, by the way,

325
00:25:48.359 --> 00:25:53.079
we find out that plant parenthood is
quite a few, Bill, quite

326
00:25:53.240 --> 00:26:02.319
a few plan parenthood abortuaries in black
names was by design, You're exactly right,

327
00:26:04.519 --> 00:26:08.720
right, And so you see,
China has finally understood that they have

328
00:26:08.839 --> 00:26:18.319
gone aboard, gone on, uh, gone onto their one world child and

329
00:26:18.880 --> 00:26:23.559
destroy their population. They have more
males than females, and they have a

330
00:26:23.559 --> 00:26:29.960
lot of societal issues. Now,
so let's learn from them. Even China,

331
00:26:30.599 --> 00:26:36.680
it has a lower limit to have
an abortion than we do here in

332
00:26:36.759 --> 00:26:41.119
Virginia. And yet we call China
barbaric. I mean, do we have

333
00:26:41.240 --> 00:26:45.559
a mirror that we can look into, Bill, So you know, we've

334
00:26:45.599 --> 00:26:48.359
got to do the right thing.
We've got to have you know, the

335
00:26:48.359 --> 00:26:52.480
pendulum, it swings one way.
And let's hope that we come back to

336
00:26:52.000 --> 00:26:56.640
common sense. We have to have
our babies right, they are our future.

337
00:26:56.920 --> 00:27:00.960
We have to give a family unit
back together. Well, you're exactly

338
00:27:02.039 --> 00:27:06.039
right, because that is the key
building block to every society. And China

339
00:27:06.119 --> 00:27:10.160
you mentioned this one child policy.
This has devastated them. I mean,

340
00:27:10.480 --> 00:27:14.720
you know, Governor, you've got
you've got single men. You know,

341
00:27:15.200 --> 00:27:22.200
the disproportionate ratio of women to men
in China is dangerous. It is dangerous

342
00:27:22.240 --> 00:27:27.000
because these men do not have anyone
that they can marry. What are they

343
00:27:27.079 --> 00:27:32.799
going to do? They're going to
you know what happens. Psychologists will tell

344
00:27:32.839 --> 00:27:38.480
you in the absence of a relationship
and intimate relationship, the anger meter goes

345
00:27:38.559 --> 00:27:44.039
up. This is this becomes part
and parcel of a prescription to go to

346
00:27:44.079 --> 00:27:48.839
war. Well, you know,
and they have more Listen, do you

347
00:27:48.920 --> 00:27:53.920
know Bill that in China they have
more honor students than we have total students

348
00:27:53.960 --> 00:28:02.920
in all of America. They're honor
students out number our total students because of

349
00:28:02.960 --> 00:28:06.480
course they have such a large population. So some things got again, and

350
00:28:06.519 --> 00:28:11.400
we're hoping that in America we've if
we've lost our minds, we find it

351
00:28:11.519 --> 00:28:15.640
very quickly. And you know how
we find our minds again. We have

352
00:28:15.839 --> 00:28:22.599
elections, elections of consequences. And
so you see people are leaving some of

353
00:28:22.640 --> 00:28:26.440
these blue states because none of their
policies make sense. They're not arresting,

354
00:28:27.720 --> 00:28:33.200
they're not arresting the criminals. The
businesses are losing their business because they're stealing

355
00:28:33.319 --> 00:28:38.880
from them. The people are on
the street causing mayhem and murder. And

356
00:28:40.000 --> 00:28:42.799
so some people have picked up and
they've left states like New York, They've

357
00:28:42.880 --> 00:28:48.640
left states like California and elsewhere,
and they're coming to finally, now Virginia's

358
00:28:48.720 --> 00:28:52.519
on the map. They're coming to
Virginia. They're coming to The red states

359
00:28:52.640 --> 00:28:57.920
are usually in Florida, for example, COVID didn't shut our schools down COVID

360
00:28:59.200 --> 00:29:04.559
policy exactly in Florida. They were
open. In South Dakota, they were

361
00:29:04.640 --> 00:29:10.680
open. In Texas they were open. The Republican led states were open.

362
00:29:11.279 --> 00:29:18.359
So we know the Saul Alinsky approach
is do not let an advantage well a

363
00:29:18.440 --> 00:29:25.640
crisis go to waitste we now know
what it looks like when Republicans, well

364
00:29:25.720 --> 00:29:27.839
Democrats, I should say, are
in charge. That's not what we want.

365
00:29:29.279 --> 00:29:34.839
Well you left alone, Well,
you already have over a million I

366
00:29:34.880 --> 00:29:40.119
believe was the number, the recent
number, over a million Democrats that have

367
00:29:40.279 --> 00:29:45.440
left the party and they've either gone
independent or Republican. You've got near a

368
00:29:45.480 --> 00:29:52.640
dozen elected officials who were once Democrats
now Republicans. And I caution our viewers

369
00:29:52.640 --> 00:29:55.119
because I say, look it,
you need to be careful and make sure

370
00:29:55.519 --> 00:30:00.119
you understand why they're changing parties.
Sometimes they're changing it for political advantage,

371
00:30:00.400 --> 00:30:07.119
not necessarily for political for a political
heart change that says, you know what

372
00:30:07.240 --> 00:30:11.279
I can you know, I'm going
to vote Republican. I see the benefit

373
00:30:11.359 --> 00:30:17.799
of being conservative because unfortunately, in
politics, you know, it has more

374
00:30:17.839 --> 00:30:22.799
to do about being relected, being
reelected than serving the people. Yeah,

375
00:30:22.960 --> 00:30:26.359
we can't be see war much.
That's not why we want to win elections.

376
00:30:26.400 --> 00:30:30.359
We wantin elections for the safety and
security of our families so that we

377
00:30:30.400 --> 00:30:33.559
can have a future, they can
have a future. We want to be

378
00:30:33.640 --> 00:30:40.000
sure that our businesses are successful because
they are the job creators, not government.

379
00:30:40.119 --> 00:30:42.559
Government doesn't create jobs. In fact, that government can cause you to

380
00:30:42.599 --> 00:30:48.599
lose jobs, you can slick around. You see inflation because our president,

381
00:30:48.759 --> 00:30:56.759
President Biden stopped oil production here and
gave it to our well, our adversaries

382
00:30:56.799 --> 00:31:00.440
thinks about it. Every time the
price of oil goes up. Russia effects

383
00:31:00.440 --> 00:31:04.759
think about that. And you are
there. They were importing liquid natural gas

384
00:31:04.799 --> 00:31:11.279
from Russia. What part of that
didn't they understand? Is a national security

385
00:31:11.440 --> 00:31:14.599
issue bill, you see, none
of what you're doing makes any sense.

386
00:31:14.599 --> 00:31:17.799
And we've got to make sure,
of course, that we are safe and

387
00:31:17.880 --> 00:31:22.440
secure when it comes to our local
law enforcement and our Department of Corrections personnel,

388
00:31:22.559 --> 00:31:26.599
because who are we going to call
when we're being robbed, when our

389
00:31:26.599 --> 00:31:33.079
homes are being invaded? Exactly,
We've got to keep our common sense policies,

390
00:31:33.079 --> 00:31:36.279
and we've got to make sure that
those who move from the reds,

391
00:31:36.480 --> 00:31:41.200
from the Blue States to the peace
and quiet of the Red states where common

392
00:31:41.279 --> 00:31:47.240
sense prevails. We've got to make
sure that they remember why they came and

393
00:31:47.240 --> 00:31:51.839
how it was before they got here, because if they continue to vote in

394
00:31:51.880 --> 00:31:56.559
the same way, well then there
we are. We're all blue states,

395
00:31:56.519 --> 00:32:01.200
you know, no rule of law, no nothing. Yes, yeah,

396
00:32:01.240 --> 00:32:07.240
we we encourage people who come to
Florida governor to leave those policies backward they

397
00:32:07.319 --> 00:32:12.920
belong, They're not welcome here in
Florida. You know, this is about

398
00:32:13.000 --> 00:32:17.599
liberty, it's about you know,
promoting the excellence of its citizens, and

399
00:32:19.160 --> 00:32:23.039
government serving the people, not the
people serving government. Yes, and we

400
00:32:23.119 --> 00:32:28.079
can't cut our noses off despite our
face. You know, we understand when

401
00:32:28.119 --> 00:32:30.759
it comes to our energy policy,
we need to do all of the you

402
00:32:30.319 --> 00:32:37.079
that means uh, small nuclear reactors, that means coal, oil, natural

403
00:32:37.200 --> 00:32:43.480
gas, and of course solar,
other renewables. But we can't as the

404
00:32:43.519 --> 00:32:47.279
superpower. For example, here in
Virginia, we have the largest naval base

405
00:32:47.400 --> 00:32:53.440
in the world. It's not running
all renewables. No, Yeah, they

406
00:32:53.599 --> 00:33:00.559
need the energy so that they can
get the mission done. We have the

407
00:33:00.640 --> 00:33:05.960
Pentagon here, we have we have
the headquarters of NATO here. We need

408
00:33:06.039 --> 00:33:08.759
and this is not just us,
of course, in all of America there

409
00:33:08.759 --> 00:33:14.640
are energy needs. You saw what
happened for example in Texas when the whole

410
00:33:14.680 --> 00:33:20.920
solar panels froze exam broth and what
happened to them. You see, So

411
00:33:21.079 --> 00:33:24.200
we need all of the above,
all of the above. And even Gavin

412
00:33:24.279 --> 00:33:29.160
Newsom, I don't I think this
escaped a lot of us because the media

413
00:33:29.279 --> 00:33:34.680
wasn't too pushing it. But Gavin
Newsom has decided that, yes, we

414
00:33:34.720 --> 00:33:39.319
need renewables, but we're going to
make sure that we continue with the fossil

415
00:33:39.640 --> 00:33:44.680
fuels. Yes, because he knows
how this is going to play out.

416
00:33:45.799 --> 00:33:50.160
We need all of the above.
Well, it's like you say, just

417
00:33:50.240 --> 00:33:53.640
employ some common sense. There's not
enough product. First of all, if

418
00:33:53.640 --> 00:33:58.920
you're saying, Okay, everybody's gonna
be driving an electric vehicle, well we

419
00:33:59.160 --> 00:34:02.119
don't have enough elect vehicles will be
lucky to service ten percent, So the

420
00:34:02.119 --> 00:34:05.920
rest of the ninety percent of the
country is going to go amish. We're

421
00:34:05.920 --> 00:34:08.880
gonna get buggies and a horse,
you know. I mean well not only

422
00:34:09.119 --> 00:34:15.400
yes, not only that, but
the rare earth minerals that we need for

423
00:34:15.440 --> 00:34:19.679
the batteries and for the rest of
the car, well, they're still in

424
00:34:19.719 --> 00:34:22.599
the earth build and as I read
at the rate that they're digging up those

425
00:34:22.719 --> 00:34:29.320
minerals, they're looking at a hundred
plus years before we will have the capacity

426
00:34:29.400 --> 00:34:34.280
that we need to build the amount
of cars that we need. So it's

427
00:34:34.400 --> 00:34:38.559
all a farce. And everybody knows
that those batteries, after they are spent,

428
00:34:38.800 --> 00:34:43.400
those solar batteries, et cetera.
You know, evy batteries. Where

429
00:34:43.400 --> 00:34:46.960
are we going to put them?
They're going to go in the earth.

430
00:34:47.519 --> 00:34:52.920
And by the way, the energy
that we need to drive these cars is

431
00:34:52.960 --> 00:35:00.039
first coming from fossil fuels builds.
So yes, you're plugging in. Where

432
00:35:00.280 --> 00:35:05.280
was the energy generated for you to
bring it in? Well, they think

433
00:35:05.320 --> 00:35:09.599
we're all fools, right, and
here they get all involved in this virtue

434
00:35:09.760 --> 00:35:15.639
signaling, right, and they don't
even think about who's digging up those raw

435
00:35:15.719 --> 00:35:19.440
minerals that you talk about. You
know, it's kids that are doing it,

436
00:35:19.480 --> 00:35:22.880
that are getting paid you know,
pennies and uh. And then on

437
00:35:22.960 --> 00:35:27.320
top of that, then it's sent
over to China where they process. Well,

438
00:35:27.320 --> 00:35:31.119
that's right. We are in an
antagonistic position with China, who wants

439
00:35:31.159 --> 00:35:37.280
to replace us as a superpower.
So we're going to rely on China for

440
00:35:37.400 --> 00:35:43.039
all the resourcing of these electric vehicles. After we've said were we want to

441
00:35:43.079 --> 00:35:47.800
protect the environment, we want to
protect humanity and and that I mean,

442
00:35:47.840 --> 00:35:52.920
this thing is such a farce.
Uh, the way we're getting here,

443
00:35:52.239 --> 00:35:55.920
you know, to this point.
But you know that doesn't matter, you

444
00:35:55.960 --> 00:36:01.880
know for the green fascist Uh,
they are ideologically fixed. It's about it

445
00:36:01.960 --> 00:36:07.679
really is a It's a religion in
and of itself, isn't it. Yeah,

446
00:36:07.719 --> 00:36:10.320
you know, we've got to wake
up, and I hope we wake

447
00:36:10.400 --> 00:36:16.199
up very quickly, because you see
that well, this group bricks Brazil,

448
00:36:17.480 --> 00:36:22.840
Russia, India, China and some
of the African nations. They're trying to

449
00:36:22.880 --> 00:36:29.159
start a whole almost like a NATO, almost like a European Union, leaving

450
00:36:29.239 --> 00:36:32.639
US out of it. And they're
serious. They want to destabilize the American

451
00:36:32.760 --> 00:36:37.559
currency and not have US as the
reserve currency. You know, I swear

452
00:36:37.800 --> 00:36:43.320
Bill sometimes I wonder if if you
know, we've just lost our minds.

453
00:36:43.840 --> 00:36:50.840
I really wonder if we're paying attention
our countries at stake. Elections matter.

454
00:36:51.199 --> 00:36:53.159
We have got to get out and
vote. We have got to start,

455
00:36:53.159 --> 00:36:59.639
for example, doing absentee ballots.
We know that in Virginia, for example,

456
00:37:00.079 --> 00:37:06.480
in twenty twenty one, there we
have identified five hundred thousand Republicans who

457
00:37:06.599 --> 00:37:10.519
voted for US but did not vote
the very next year, five hundred thousand,

458
00:37:10.599 --> 00:37:15.119
and that was a confessional campaign year. We could have sent more Republicans

459
00:37:15.159 --> 00:37:21.400
to Congress. Bill. What happened, Governor that they didn't vote Republicans.

460
00:37:21.519 --> 00:37:25.840
Well, these are the voters that
they only vote if it's a presidential year

461
00:37:27.280 --> 00:37:32.559
or if governors are up. So
it wasn't It wasn't necessarily a policy issue.

462
00:37:32.599 --> 00:37:37.679
It's just the normal flow of what
happens during the election seasons. Yeah,

463
00:37:37.800 --> 00:37:44.000
okay, think have changed. We
are right now early voting for an

464
00:37:44.000 --> 00:37:49.639
election in November. Think about that. And so if one company, or

465
00:37:49.719 --> 00:37:53.039
we should say, one political party
has a piece of the pie for forty

466
00:37:53.119 --> 00:37:58.280
five days, which is what we're
in then, and we only have one

467
00:37:58.360 --> 00:38:01.280
day, who do you think is
most likely to win? The rules have

468
00:38:01.400 --> 00:38:05.960
changed. We've got to go out
there and vote. We've got a sign

469
00:38:06.079 --> 00:38:09.719
not just in Virginia, sign up
to be on the absentee ballot list,

470
00:38:09.840 --> 00:38:14.639
because I did that, and you
know, I got the confirmation letter that

471
00:38:14.719 --> 00:38:19.039
tells me from now on, forty
five days before every election, we're going

472
00:38:19.079 --> 00:38:23.320
to mail to you a ballot for
a special election, a ballot for every

473
00:38:23.360 --> 00:38:28.280
primary election, and a ballot for
every general election. You mean, all

474
00:38:28.320 --> 00:38:30.920
I have to do is fill out
the ballot on my kitchen table and send

475
00:38:30.960 --> 00:38:35.480
it in. This is how the
other side is winning. We've got to

476
00:38:35.519 --> 00:38:38.960
get more than a clue. We've
got to get serious and get busy.

477
00:38:39.320 --> 00:38:45.039
We've got to we've we've got to
match up their forces and our forces together.

478
00:38:45.159 --> 00:38:50.480
And as you said, get serious
about this. Otherwise, you know,

479
00:38:50.679 --> 00:38:54.519
we're you know, we're just not
in the fight, and we're losing.

480
00:38:54.559 --> 00:39:00.320
We're losing by default, and people
are getting frustrated because meanwhile, you

481
00:39:00.360 --> 00:39:05.159
know, it's our country and it's
citizens that are suffering because of the poor

482
00:39:05.239 --> 00:39:07.760
policies. You know, going back
to what you said earlier, Lieutenant Governor,

483
00:39:07.840 --> 00:39:12.559
this starts with a vision. You
know, God himself said a people

484
00:39:12.639 --> 00:39:15.920
without vision will cast off restraint.
This is where we are right now in

485
00:39:15.920 --> 00:39:21.960
this country. We have untethered ourselves
from our moral authority and we're like a

486
00:39:21.960 --> 00:39:25.039
hot air balloon that's been punctured,
flying all over the place, and we

487
00:39:25.159 --> 00:39:30.639
need solid leadership to come in and
cast the vision. Remind people what the

488
00:39:30.639 --> 00:39:36.559
American dream is all about. That
it is worth liberty is worth fighting for,

489
00:39:37.239 --> 00:39:39.559
and we must fight for it so
that we can hand it off to

490
00:39:39.599 --> 00:39:45.239
the next generation. Right. Yes, you know, just to come back

491
00:39:45.320 --> 00:39:50.480
into the political realm. We also
now know that none other than Teddy Roosevelt

492
00:39:50.519 --> 00:39:57.360
said to educate a child without morals
is to educate a menace to society,

493
00:39:57.480 --> 00:40:00.679
and we're seeing some of that.
We've got to come act to what we

494
00:40:00.840 --> 00:40:05.440
know to be true, that there
is a God and that there are things

495
00:40:05.519 --> 00:40:09.239
required of us. We have to
get the righteous path back and yes,

496
00:40:09.400 --> 00:40:14.159
and you know what we're going to
do is to ensure that everybody wants to

497
00:40:14.199 --> 00:40:17.039
worship in the way that they want. We're going to ensure that everybody has

498
00:40:17.079 --> 00:40:22.519
the freedom of speech. We want
to make sure that everyone gets an opportunity

499
00:40:22.639 --> 00:40:27.280
to have that piece of the pie. We can't dictate how people will live

500
00:40:27.320 --> 00:40:31.880
their lives because they will make choices, which is why we cannot have equity.

501
00:40:32.079 --> 00:40:37.800
Equity is equal outcomes. People make
choices and they suffer for good or

502
00:40:37.880 --> 00:40:42.639
bad with those choices. We need
to have peace at last, Peace in

503
00:40:42.679 --> 00:40:45.840
our lives, peace on our jobs, and peace in our neighborhoods. We

504
00:40:45.960 --> 00:40:52.119
need peace. So we need to
vote. We have to vote otherwise you

505
00:40:52.239 --> 00:40:55.920
cannot wring your hands on election day
because you did nothing. Yeah, you

506
00:40:55.960 --> 00:41:01.639
didn't participate. In one of your
chapters, Governor, you talk about speaking

507
00:41:01.719 --> 00:41:07.599
God's blessings. You kind of referred
to that just a moment ago and I

508
00:41:07.639 --> 00:41:12.079
thought maybe, based on your reference
to that, that you should unwrap that

509
00:41:12.159 --> 00:41:17.320
for a minute. Well, we
know that we were begun, for example,

510
00:41:17.679 --> 00:41:23.440
with God. You know, when
Christopher Newport came to Virginia, the

511
00:41:23.599 --> 00:41:31.119
first permanent English speaking settlement, he
planted across, planted across for everybody to

512
00:41:31.199 --> 00:41:37.719
understand what that meant. And then
when the second wave came with the Puritans,

513
00:41:37.159 --> 00:41:40.400
they were coming to northern Virginia,
but they were blown off course,

514
00:41:40.559 --> 00:41:47.159
and of course we know them more
as the Pilgrims. And before they got

515
00:41:47.159 --> 00:41:52.760
off the boat at Plymouth, and
of course meant what is now modern day

516
00:41:52.760 --> 00:41:58.519
Massachusetts. They decided to sign that
Mayflower Compact, and the way that it

517
00:41:58.599 --> 00:42:04.559
begins is and the name of God. Amen. Think about that. Say,

518
00:42:04.599 --> 00:42:08.440
they wanted everybody to understand what this
was about. So let's understand that

519
00:42:08.559 --> 00:42:14.280
even though we are you know,
we're no longer I guess people have said

520
00:42:15.599 --> 00:42:19.559
at our roots. And yes,
some bad things have happened. You know,

521
00:42:19.599 --> 00:42:22.800
we had slavery, which is a
wickedness and an evil in the sight

522
00:42:22.880 --> 00:42:28.440
of God. But we are continuing
to change. We're changing for the better.

523
00:42:28.480 --> 00:42:30.320
We're it's going to stop looking back, and we're going to look forward.

524
00:42:30.920 --> 00:42:36.440
Even doctor King wasn't really looking for
a new law, because what he

525
00:42:36.559 --> 00:42:42.719
pointed to was the Declaration of Independence
itself, all these truths to be self

526
00:42:42.840 --> 00:42:49.519
evident, that all men are created
equal. Yeah, you know what else

527
00:42:49.559 --> 00:42:54.480
needs to be said? Right,
get out and vote, That's what needs

528
00:42:54.480 --> 00:43:00.280
to be said. Or offer yourself
as a candidate, or get behind the

529
00:43:00.320 --> 00:43:06.079
candidate. Knock on the doors,
put the sign in your yard, make

530
00:43:06.159 --> 00:43:09.679
the phone calls, write the letters. Do what you need to do to

531
00:43:10.039 --> 00:43:19.719
ensure that America remains America for the
next generation. It requires an activated citizen.

532
00:43:19.800 --> 00:43:24.239
Read your book, Lieutenant Governor,
how sweet it is? What do

533
00:43:24.280 --> 00:43:30.760
you want the reader to take away
from your book? That no matter the

534
00:43:30.840 --> 00:43:34.480
challenges that we face, and you
know, as we say in the Marine

535
00:43:34.519 --> 00:43:39.480
Corps, you will never promised the
rose garden. So life will come at

536
00:43:39.519 --> 00:43:44.719
you and if you're not ready,
she's going to run over you. So

537
00:43:45.159 --> 00:43:50.079
we have to take the good stuff
with the bad stuff, and we're gonna

538
00:43:50.159 --> 00:43:54.639
just overcome. We're gonna continue to
jump, you know, the obstacles and

539
00:43:55.039 --> 00:44:00.639
make things better. And we can't, you know, crawl into our beds

540
00:44:00.679 --> 00:44:05.000
and die. No, we must
live. We must continue as I said,

541
00:44:05.039 --> 00:44:08.559
America, we must give an example
to our children so that they know

542
00:44:08.679 --> 00:44:15.679
how to be. And we have
to of course take our place in society.

543
00:44:15.199 --> 00:44:21.079
You know, when you consider the
human potential, the opportunities that are

544
00:44:21.079 --> 00:44:23.440
here in America. Even in the
midst of where we are right now in

545
00:44:23.480 --> 00:44:29.719
the culture wars that we're dealing with, this country has a lot to offer,

546
00:44:30.360 --> 00:44:34.159
and it's up to us to step
up. It's up to us to

547
00:44:35.039 --> 00:44:40.719
individually resist these these forces that really, in a sense are evil because and

548
00:44:40.760 --> 00:44:45.440
what makes them evil is because they're
against God Almighty. They're against the vision,

549
00:44:46.000 --> 00:44:51.559
the everything that God tells us in
his word where we get our identity.

550
00:44:51.639 --> 00:44:53.760
We don't get our identity from the
government. We get it from God

551
00:44:53.880 --> 00:45:00.679
himself. And the and the culture
would want us to abandon that for one

552
00:45:00.719 --> 00:45:05.400
reason only, so that we would
be under their thumb and under their control.

553
00:45:05.559 --> 00:45:09.320
Because we're designed and such a way
that we must worship something and even

554
00:45:09.360 --> 00:45:13.960
our founding father said that we will. It will either be God or it

555
00:45:14.000 --> 00:45:21.079
will be somebody else or something else. Yeah. Unfortunately, we're not learning

556
00:45:21.079 --> 00:45:24.199
too much about history, and so
we don't understand that the things have been

557
00:45:24.280 --> 00:45:30.480
tried and most people don't even remember. We tried communism as a matter of

558
00:45:30.559 --> 00:45:37.039
fact in America and we almost nearly
died that first settlement. You know,

559
00:45:37.199 --> 00:45:40.880
that's right, Bradford. Yes,
when they first came over a sixteen oh

560
00:45:40.960 --> 00:45:45.400
seven and all, and they just
about lost everything because what we were all

561
00:45:45.440 --> 00:45:51.639
sharing everything in common. Nobody owned
anything. And it sounds good that we

562
00:45:51.840 --> 00:45:54.440
pool our resources and we do all
that, except what they found was some

563
00:45:54.480 --> 00:45:59.760
people worked harder than other people,
and the people who are working hard decided

564
00:46:00.199 --> 00:46:04.519
not working hard for somebody else,
to just take the profits and the food,

565
00:46:04.840 --> 00:46:07.800
and so nobody works. And then
that's communism. And what did Governor

566
00:46:07.840 --> 00:46:12.880
Bradford had to do? Divide the
land and say this is your plot.

567
00:46:13.320 --> 00:46:16.239
You'll work it, you eat it. And that goes to the biblical principle

568
00:46:17.400 --> 00:46:22.639
that doesn't work, he doesn't eat. Now we're saying we'll take care of

569
00:46:22.679 --> 00:46:25.320
those who are not able to take
care of themselves. But if you're able

570
00:46:25.400 --> 00:46:30.440
bodies, no, no, you
need to contribute. We're not here to

571
00:46:30.519 --> 00:46:35.760
work so that you can stay home
and dream, as Nancy Pelosi said one

572
00:46:35.840 --> 00:46:38.199
time, or you've lost your minds. That's not how this works. It's

573
00:46:38.320 --> 00:46:44.639
not any of this works right?
Well, the World Economic Forum says that

574
00:46:44.960 --> 00:46:49.719
their vision is speaking of vision.
Their vision is that we would own nothing

575
00:46:49.840 --> 00:46:53.920
and like it about seven years from
now. That that is their timeline.

576
00:46:55.039 --> 00:47:00.199
Well, hopefully they are wrong.
Hopefully there are a senile people still left

577
00:47:00.239 --> 00:47:05.360
in this world and we will show
them the way to go, because we

578
00:47:05.400 --> 00:47:08.880
don't want to live in whatever world
that sounds like they are dictating. And

579
00:47:08.960 --> 00:47:12.880
see, this is the thing.
Whose rules are we going to live by?

580
00:47:13.800 --> 00:47:15.800
Is it your rules? Do I
have a say in those rules?

581
00:47:16.519 --> 00:47:20.400
What if I don't like your rules? What will happen to me? What

582
00:47:20.480 --> 00:47:23.679
will happen to my family? We've
gone down this road before. We're not

583
00:47:23.760 --> 00:47:28.840
going down that road again. And
we're going to make sure we get to

584
00:47:28.880 --> 00:47:30.800
the polls. People. We get
to the polls, we jump from the

585
00:47:30.880 --> 00:47:36.039
sidelines, we jump from the bleacher
seats, we get in the arena and

586
00:47:36.039 --> 00:47:38.800
we fight. That's what we have
to do. We need school pays,

587
00:47:38.880 --> 00:47:43.360
for example, and we need it
now and we can't get it unless we

588
00:47:43.440 --> 00:47:50.400
get a change of politicians. Yeah, without a doubt. And as you

589
00:47:50.480 --> 00:47:55.440
mentioned earlier as well, Lieutenant Governor, is that education is key? You

590
00:47:55.480 --> 00:48:00.599
know? Education, you know is
what precedes now age that that gives us

591
00:48:00.639 --> 00:48:05.679
the right decision and the right action. You know, we have to be

592
00:48:05.960 --> 00:48:08.639
educated, we have to be determined
and do it on purpose, you know,

593
00:48:08.679 --> 00:48:12.719
put down the screens. I mean
the thing that I will say about

594
00:48:13.599 --> 00:48:16.559
you know, you talk about the
communist Chinese and how committed there, uh

595
00:48:16.599 --> 00:48:22.280
they are to education. You know, uh even uh you know the Asian

596
00:48:22.320 --> 00:48:27.440
population, their commitment to education and
why they overperform. It's it's basic.

597
00:48:27.800 --> 00:48:32.360
They put more time into studying than
anybody else. Right, you know,

598
00:48:32.440 --> 00:48:37.519
there was a time when we would
look at a successful person and wonder,

599
00:48:37.559 --> 00:48:40.400
well, what did they do so
that we can emulate that exactly. Yeah,

600
00:48:40.599 --> 00:48:45.599
when people are successful, we are
we are trying to destroy them.

601
00:48:45.639 --> 00:48:47.840
No, we're not going to do
that, which is why I signed on

602
00:48:47.960 --> 00:48:52.880
to the Amnicus Brief to make sure
that we understood. We're not going to

603
00:48:52.000 --> 00:48:57.800
keep Asian children out of the schools. We're not going to keep them out

604
00:48:57.800 --> 00:49:04.000
of colleges and universities. We've played
these color games, color skin games before.

605
00:49:04.199 --> 00:49:07.440
We're not going to play them anymore. We're not going to put each

606
00:49:07.440 --> 00:49:10.920
other against each other. You know, I've always said and I'm not the

607
00:49:10.920 --> 00:49:16.239
one to have coined this. But
racism is not a sin, a skin

608
00:49:16.360 --> 00:49:21.719
problem, it's a sin prominent.
Yes, exactly, all have it.

609
00:49:22.480 --> 00:49:27.320
There are black racists, they're white
racists there, We're all at some point.

610
00:49:27.400 --> 00:49:30.800
So let's not act as if we
can't do that. And by the

611
00:49:30.800 --> 00:49:35.039
way, they have said, you
know that some of the Democrats that I

612
00:49:35.079 --> 00:49:39.800
am a white supremacist. You'll see
they have lost their minds Bill. So

613
00:49:40.079 --> 00:49:44.760
yeah, no, we have to
make sure that we really get involved and

614
00:49:45.119 --> 00:49:50.039
all we need is an election to
change things. Exactly. Well, Lieutenant

615
00:49:50.079 --> 00:49:54.400
Governor, I cannot thank you enough
for your time. It's absolutely precious and

616

618
00:50:06.119 --> 00:50:10.159

blessed, Thank you for being with us,

620
