  Okay, we got a question for our American mamma. Dear mama, did
• 0:02
  you see how Britney Griner is now okay standing for the national anthem? Well,
• 0:06
  let's ask our American mama, Mama and joining us now our American Mama,
• 0:22
  Terry Nettaville, Britney Griner is back in the US. She was We
• 0:26
  traded a top level spy, the merchant of death, yea a person who
• 0:31
  knows how to make everything short of nuclear weapons, as I understand certainly chemical
• 0:38
  weapons and how to trade them to the most evil people on the planet.
• 0:42
  We gave that guy back to the Russians so that we could get a women's
• 0:47
  basketball player. I'll never understand that trade unless it was something that was made
• 0:52
  even beforehand, because you know how I don't trust this administration, so I
• 0:55
  feel like that there were something, But it just seems like the dumbest trade
• 0:59
  it is, well not only dumb, it's it's life threatening, like somebody's
• 1:03
  gonna die because we made somebody's gonna die because of that decision. So Brittany
• 1:07
  Grinder is back in the US. She's playing basketball again professionally, and she's
• 1:11
  now standing for the national anthem. She used to kneel for the national anthem,
• 1:17
  the anthem before In fact, in twenty twenty, she expressed her belief
• 1:21
  that that the anthem should not even be played before the NBA game. W
• 1:25
  NBA games, Yeah, she did. And then she said, I don't
• 1:27
  mean that in any disrespect our country. Her dad was in Vietnam and then
• 1:32
  a law officer for thirty years. Wait, how is saying that you don't
• 1:34
  want the national anthem played before a game? I mean, you don't have
• 1:37
  any disrespect for our country and for her father, you know, who was
• 1:41
  a law officer. And she said she wanted to be an officer before she
• 1:44
  got into basketball. And she said, but she's going to protest regardless.
• 1:48
  That to me is saying I am going to virtue signal even though I do
• 1:53
  respect our country and the men and women of it and the you know,
• 1:57
  the law officers. So this was one of those again where the woke who
• 2:01
  are actually dead asleep, their head is buried in the sand. In my
• 2:05
  opinion, it's the most ironic thing to call these people woke because they're so
• 2:08
  asleep. It's the Roman wisdom. In Romans, it says, professing themselves
• 2:14
  to be wise, they become fools. M Yeah, you know that's it.
• 2:17
  That's it now, you know, after her experience, at least I
• 2:22
  can say I do respect her now for coming back to American soil and standing
• 2:27
  up for the anthem and placing her hand over her heart and understanding not only
• 2:32
  the beauty but the privilege to live in this country. So she was asked
• 2:37
  about this at a press conference after one of the basketball games and said,
• 2:40
  hey, you know, what do you think about the national anthem now?
• 2:44
  And she said it lands different now. Yeah, that's what she said.
• 2:47
  She just like when you go to the Olympics and you're sitting there and you
• 2:51
  get the gold put on your neck and the flags are going up and the
• 2:53
  anthem, she said, it just hits differently. She and her coach looked
• 2:55
  at each other and their eyes swelled with tears. Like what changed? Now?
• 3:00
  You have an appreciation. Now you understand you got something that was taken
• 3:05
  away from you that you didn't know if you'd ever have again. Now you're
• 3:07
  back and you understand it. I hope this does not fall on deaf ears
• 3:13
  right right. I hope that the people that see this, because there's a
• 3:15
  lot of them. I think about the Kaepernicks. I mean, Kevin and
• 3:19
  I went to Academy last night and I found the shirt that I liked for
• 3:22
  him, but it was Nike. He was like, oh, heck,
• 3:23
  no, you can put that right back up. I was like, oh,
• 3:27
  yeah, you're right. I didn't think about that. He said,
• 3:29
  yeah, the whole Kaepernick thing. Nothing, yeah. Nothing. So it's
• 3:34
  like, what is it going to take for people to understand and recognize the
• 3:38
  importance of not diminishing the anthem or disrespecting the anthem in the flag. It
• 3:44
  takes something like this. So I don't know what it's gonna take for Kaepernick.
• 3:46
  I don't know what it's gonna take for anybody else. It's Lebron James
• 3:50
  and all those people. But I love that she's now standing up for it.
• 3:55
  This is interesting because I keep coming back to Reagan's Fairwell Well address.
• 4:00
  He gave it in January of nineteen eighty nine from the Oval Office. Um,
• 4:04
  I've watched it several times. It's just it's so powerful and it's so
• 4:09
  prescient. He was basically predicting the future and he was right. And one
• 4:14
  of the things he said in that was that, yes, we do have
• 4:16
  a patriotism back in this country, but it's not part of the culture.
• 4:20
  Again. It used to be part of the culture in this country. The
• 4:24
  love of country used to be popular. He said. Being patriotic is not
• 4:27
  in fashion today, and as a result, we stand there eighties, back
• 4:31
  in the late eighties, he said, being in being patriotic is not in
• 4:34
  fashion today, and as a result of that, we run the risk of
• 4:39
  losing our liberties because we don't know what we did. And here we are
• 4:44
  again. It's not fashionable to be patriotic until you lose your liberty. And
• 4:49
  then Brittany Grinder one of the people who was kneeling, kneeling showing disrespect and
• 4:56
  not wanting and she was she was doing that because that was fashionable. Being
• 5:00
  anti patriotic was fashionable, right, And then she comes back and goes,
• 5:04
  you know what, I think I'm gonna be patriotic. You know what's so
• 5:09
  sad about that? Now that you're talking about Reagan, It's what's sad to
• 5:12
  me. It is our government leaders that are leading the charge and being unpatriotic.
• 5:17
  Yeah, that's devastating because when I grew up, I always looked at
• 5:20
  them and revered them as they were the you know, the upper crust of
• 5:25
  patriotism. Sure, and now I see what they say and do and brainwashing,
• 5:30
  you know, give misinformation, and they are the ones who are leading
• 5:32
  the charge to being unpatriotic. Look, John Glenn was Democrat, but you
• 5:36
  couldn't say John Glenn wasn't patriotic, right right when the astronauts, Yeah,
• 5:41
  you know orsheated to leave. I'm not sure you can classify as being patriotic.
• 5:46
  Not only she's not patriotic, I think she hates America. It's good
• 5:48
  to see Brittany grinderstanding. If you'd like to ask our American Mama a question,
