• 0:02
  Speaker 1: did you think of Secretary of War hegcess no fatties speech.
• 0:05
  Speaker 2: Well, let's ask Mareric and mama's mama, mama, and.
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: Joining is now our American Mamasterry Edville and Kimberly Burlason.
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: So the Secretary of Warrior and the President of the
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: United States called in every single major general and admiral
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: across the entire world. Well, I mean, just the American ones,
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: and then brought them into d C and then said
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: to them, you can't be fat and slovenly anymore. You
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: need to pass a PT test. What did you guys think?
• 0:43
  Speaker 3: So I had a couple of reactions. So my first
• 0:46
  Speaker 3: reaction was he he practiced it, and so it felt
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: like he was trying to figure out his little clips,
• 0:53
  Speaker 3: you know, that he was going to put out there.
• 0:55
  Speaker 3: You know, it just felt a little theatrical. Okay, and
• 0:57
  Speaker 3: that's a negative. But I thought it was amazing what
• 0:59
  Speaker 3: he was saying. What was kind of sw.
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: You felt like you felt like some of that was
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: rehearsed before that social media class.
• 1:07
  Speaker 4: I did, Okay, I did.
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: It's just my first gut thought Okay. Then I started
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: watching reels of former military people that were loving it
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: veteran and I even message one of my friends who
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: is a former former colonel. Yeah, and I said, what
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: was your thoughts about it? And he said, I love it.
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: That's the way we were. We're warriors. We need to
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: be intimidating, we need to be strong. So I love
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: that we would come back to that because we are
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: no longer intimidating.
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: You know, my soid my father was a colonel in
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: the United States Army. West Point graduate and up until
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: about this time last year, so he would watch you'd
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: go to a bar and hang out with some West
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: Point folks watching the West Point football game. And there's
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: a tradition of West Point that when they score, you
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: have to do a push up for every point they
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: have on the scoreboard. And at seventy nine years old,
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: my dad was doing a push up for every point
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: that West Point was putting up on the scoreboard. And
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: they had a heck of a season last year, right,
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: so at my father still could have passed. I'm convinced
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: last year he still could have passed PT tests. A
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: certainly for his age, he would have been able to
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: pass them. Is it asking too much for generals to
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: be able to pass the same type of PD tests
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: that you're asking the troops to pass.
• 2:21
  Speaker 4: I was so curious about that. I wondered, how was
• 2:25
  Speaker 4: this received in the room? How was this received for
• 2:29
  Speaker 4: those that were sitting right.
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: There right because they're pretty silent.
• 2:32
  Speaker 4: They were silent, and so I kind of I was
• 2:35
  Speaker 4: thinking about it, and I thought, Pete Hegseth cares so
• 2:40
  Speaker 4: deeply about the troops. He listens to them, He talks
• 2:43
  Speaker 4: to them. He wants to know their thoughts about everything.
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: So I thought, were they saying, Hey, what motivates me
• 2:50
  Speaker 4: is when I see, you know, someone like your father
• 2:53
  Speaker 4: going down the hall with his shoulders back, you.
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: Know what I mean.
• 2:57
  Speaker 4: And if they see like, you know, these these kind
• 2:59
  Speaker 4: of wobbly fat ones, they don't have the same respect
• 3:02
  Speaker 4: because these, like Kimberly said, these are warriors, right, these
• 3:05
  Speaker 4: are the men we for the last at least at
• 3:09
  Speaker 4: least four years, we've been a laughingstock because we've seen
• 3:12
  Speaker 4: videos of drag queens in the military that would do
• 3:17
  Speaker 4: these like little like that have all the military stuff.
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and they.
• 3:21
  Speaker 4: Would like with the music going and they turn around
• 3:24
  Speaker 4: and come back as a drag with their hair and everything.
• 3:27
  Speaker 4: And then it was the time period where they were
• 3:30
  Speaker 4: you'd have women come out and say, you know, I came,
• 3:32
  Speaker 4: I'm a biracial woman that I've got PTSD, I have
• 3:36
  Speaker 4: a bipolar mama, and like all of the victim victimhood
• 3:39
  Speaker 4: things that they the calling cards that would get them further. Well,
• 3:44
  Speaker 4: what he said it was quote, we're done with it.
• 3:46
  Speaker 4: We're done. That's a quote. And it's one of those
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: times where we are done with this. We're so done
• 3:54
  Speaker 4: with all of that woke stuff that now it seems
• 3:57
  Speaker 4: like we're going the we're kind of going back to
• 3:59
  Speaker 4: the way I was with Kennedy. Remember when he wanted
• 4:02
  Speaker 4: to have that, you know, the Principal's Test, the President's
• 4:05
  Speaker 4: the president Fitness Test, fitness test.
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: Well, that's that's another thing that Donald Trump has brought back,
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: is the Presidential Fitness Test for kids, because I look,
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: I mean, your military is made up of people starting
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: off at eighteen. If they're coming out of school and
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: they can't pass the Presidential Fitness Test, they're not going
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: to pass the PT test to the military either.
• 4:24
  Speaker 4: I think I think Pete Hegseth was a brilliant choice
• 4:28
  Speaker 4: for this role.
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: I agree.
• 4:30
  Speaker 4: I think he's the man for this time, for this era.
• 4:33
  Speaker 4: I think he's going to get us back on track.
• 4:34
  Speaker 4: I think that by the end of his term as
• 4:37
  Speaker 4: that the world will look at us differently. I agree
• 4:41
  Speaker 4: he will be like right now, I feel like Trump's
• 4:43
  Speaker 4: doing the same thing. We are respected, We're not just
• 4:45
  Speaker 4: you know, we're feared, but in a very respectful way.
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: I'm reminded of General Roosevelt. This is okay nerdy history.
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: Listen here, Teddy Roosevelt's son was a general in World
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: War Two, and he he was the only general to
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: land on the beaches in Normandy on D Day, really,
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: and he had a cane with him all right now
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: because he had a limp. But he was on the
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: beach urging the soldiers forward as a general with gray hair.
• 5:19
  Speaker 4: Can you imagine how motivated and inspired these boys were
• 5:24
  Speaker 4: right seeing his leader whose fare was.
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: A president and he was on the beach in Normandy
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: urging people on. And he gave his life in World
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: War two, but he was there and he was able
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: to keep up with the troops. Our generals need to
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: be able to do that. If you like to ask
