What this episode covers
00:00 i just got the phone to talk to me you know and son of you know how you do in the old i'm going great carol uh... several people called and talk about uh... and gender-reducing gays in the military and so on uh... my best buddy he was in the submarine well he said he was on both and there was only two things out there in the water about some targets right but will be there and he spent twenty one 00:29 years in. And I said, well, why'd you get out then? He said, well, when I joined, gays couldn't join. Right. Then Bill Clinton comes along and says, don't ask, don't tell. And then they come along and said, you've got to be a gay to be in. Said, I got out right then. That's pretty much, you're right. I appreciate it, Neil. Thank you very much. But you know, talk like that, that'll get you labeled, oh no, oh no. 00:58 The left is going to label us. They're real good at that, they? The left, they love to attach labels to things. 01:06 And one of the big labels that they like to put on us is fascist. This is from, who is this from? Paul Engel, Over to America Out Loud. This is from this. Democrats like to call their opponents fascist. I'm reminded of the line from the movie, The Princess Bride. You keep using that word. I don't think it means what you think it means. I love that movie. Because when I look up fascism in the dictionary, I find two things. First, 01:36 There's some fascism in both major political parties. Second, one political party appears to be steeped in it. One of the hallmarks of fascism is the forcible suppression of opposition. How many assassination attempts have there been against members of the Republican Party? The attack on the GOP congressional baseball practice? The attempt on Justice Alito and his family? 02:04 The attempted assassination of Lee Zeldin that nobody even talked about. And countless attempts have been made against President Trump's life. But how many assassination attempts have there been against Republicans? I'm sorry, Democrats? Yeah. Another identifier of a fascist regime is severe economic and social regimentation. Who's been pushing for the government to determine wages? Who decided that the government should be in charge of healthcare? 02:34 Who's been forcing the promotion of the homosexual and now transgender agenda? Who's been calling for and enacting economic and social regimentation? They have. As I said, there's some fascism in both political parties, but when I hear Democrats call anybody who opposes them fascist, you got to ask, is that literally the pot calling the kettle black? And it absolutely is. 03:04 Every single ism that they call you, every single aphobe that they call you, they are. I mean, just take a look at the soft bigotry of low expectation. 03:21 They pretend like they care about the African-American people. But when an African-American runs, like happened in Virginia with Winsome Sears, what do they do? They vote against her. And they put who? A white lady, an Abigail Spamburger in. That's not promoting racial equity, as they like to say. 03:50 No, that's just the opposite. Look at how they treat Clarence Thomas. Look at what they do. They don't care. They literally do not care about the plight of the African-American people. We're trying to get rid of Jim Clyburn. And boy, the Democrats hate it. They hate that. spoiler alert, a lot of the RINOs hate it in Columbia, too. But here's the question. How much better off 04:20 or the people of the 6th Congressional District under Jim Clyburn, they're not. They're not better off. His district continues to be lagging way behind. Not only the state, but the nation. In income, educational opportunities, you name the situation, Jim Clyburn's district is failing. 04:49 That's what they're doing. And what's Clyburn done about it? Absolutely nothing. How much business, how much industry? 04:59 How many new roads and intersections and bridges has he brought to this? No, it doesn't happen. It ...
