Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: We got a question for our American mamas. Dear mamas,
- 0:03Speaker 1: how can you support Pete Hegseth with all of his
- 0:06Speaker 1: steak and lobster money. Well, let's ask our American mamas.
- 0:11Speaker 2: Mama, mama, and.
- 0:22Speaker 1: Joining us now our American mama's Terry Ediville and Kimberly Burlason.
- 0:26Speaker 1: So News broke that the Defense Department spent millions of
- 0:29Speaker 1: dollars on steak and lobster. And that first brush you
- 0:33Speaker 1: start going, that is a waste of taxpayer money, and
- 0:36Speaker 1: there are people up in arms about it until you
- 0:39Speaker 1: learn that that was steak in lobster that was given
- 0:43Speaker 1: to our soldiers, sailors, airmen, marines before they started going
- 0:49Speaker 1: into combat in Iran. So is heg Seth wasting our dollars?
- 0:55Speaker 3: Absolutely not. And I want to say that every American
- 1:00Speaker 3: Conservice member deserves steak and lobster every freaking day of
- 1:06Speaker 3: their lives.
- 1:09Speaker 1: There's a reason why Roman soldiers ate better than the
- 1:12Speaker 1: rest of Roman society.
- 1:14Speaker 3: They should.
- 1:15Speaker 1: I mean, you're looking at these are the people who
- 1:17Speaker 1: are willing to put their lives on the line for.
- 1:20Speaker 4: All of us right well, And the complaint is the
- 1:24Speaker 4: complaints are coming mostly from the left. Yes, these are leftists,
- 1:27Speaker 4: like the lefty lefties who are complaining. But I read
- 1:30Speaker 4: something that I you know, some of the comments that
- 1:32Speaker 4: resonated with me, and I'm going to read a couple
- 1:34Speaker 4: of them. This person says that these people are insane.
- 1:38Speaker 4: They ignore the fraud in their own states and focus
- 1:41Speaker 4: on legit funding for legit reasons. We have to vote
- 1:45Speaker 4: these guys out because they're weighing us down, holding us back.
- 1:47Speaker 4: Because a lot of them are the leaders on the
- 1:49Speaker 4: left that are coming out purporting that this is just ridiculous.
- 1:52Speaker 1: That's a very good point, because it's not like Pete
- 1:54Speaker 1: Hegseth got this for himself and his staff. This was
- 1:58Speaker 1: for this was for people going in to combat. And
- 2:01Speaker 1: yet if you look at Tim Walls in Minnesota, or
- 2:05Speaker 1: the report that came out from CBS this week that
- 2:09Speaker 1: maybe half of the hospice facilities in Los Angeles are
- 2:13Speaker 1: complete frauds exactly with no patients whatsoever, and yet getting
- 2:17Speaker 1: millions and billions of dollars from the state of California,
- 2:20Speaker 1: and no one at the State of California has gone
- 2:22Speaker 1: Maybe we should investigate why there are eighty nine hospice
- 2:26Speaker 1: centers in one five story building.
- 2:29Speaker 4: This is why I say the media is complicit. If
- 2:32Speaker 4: the media did their job, they would do their journalistic
- 2:36Speaker 4: duty and they would investigate. They're not willing to. So
- 2:39Speaker 4: maybe the people do. Maybe the people in their towns
- 2:42Speaker 4: want this to be investigated, but all the left leaders
- 2:46Speaker 4: do is sweep things like this under the rug. Here's
- 2:48Speaker 4: another one. This goes nationwide. For any company that has
- 2:51Speaker 4: a budget, if you don't spend what you have, you
- 2:53Speaker 4: will lose it the following year. Feeding the troops is
- 2:56Speaker 4: the last word on my brain, considering the fact that
- 2:58Speaker 4: after these guys leave the service, get forgotten about, give
- 3:01Speaker 4: them cake. Say exactly what Kimberly says. These people are
- 3:06Speaker 4: serving on behalf of all of us. They're putting their
- 3:09Speaker 4: lives on the line on behalf of all of us
- 3:12Speaker 4: so that we could have the freedoms that we have.
- 3:14Speaker 4: Why in the world, with all the fraud, all the
- 3:17Speaker 4: money laundering, all the negative things that we know are
- 3:20Speaker 4: going on, the cheating, the lying within our Congress itself,
- 3:24Speaker 4: why in the world would you be focused on something
- 3:27Speaker 4: like this that is going towards our military men and women.
- 3:30Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a really good question and I agree with
- 3:34Speaker 1: you that I think that they should be eating well
- 3:37Speaker 1: all the time, especially when you figure out if they
- 3:40Speaker 1: actually go out into the field. Maybe not in this
- 3:43Speaker 1: war because they're at bases where they're on ships, but
- 3:46Speaker 1: if you're actually out in combat, you're eating MRIs exactly.
- 3:50Speaker 1: I don't know if you've never eaten an MRI, but
- 3:52Speaker 1: they're not exactly tasty for it.
- 3:54Speaker 3: And you don't know if it's the last time they eat.
- 3:57Speaker 3: You don't know when they answer that call to serve.
- 4:00Speaker 3: They don't know what they're getting into. So you want
- 4:03Speaker 3: them healthy, you want them strong, and it might be
- 4:05Speaker 3: the last time. But I also think about people on welfare.
- 4:08Speaker 3: I think about people that take so much that live
- 4:10Speaker 3: on welfare. This is how they live, this is how
- 4:13Speaker 3: they eat, this is I mean, it's like a joke
- 4:16Speaker 3: with how they feel their refrigerators. But there's been no
- 4:19Speaker 3: comment about that.
- 4:21Speaker 1: This is one of the things that I have complained
- 4:24Speaker 1: about with the way that we do our welfare and
- 4:26Speaker 1: our food stamps. And there's been a big push to
- 4:28Speaker 1: change what our food stamps pay for and what it
- 4:30Speaker 1: doesn't pay for. But we are the first society in
- 4:32Speaker 1: the history of the world where Our poor are not starving,
- 4:35Speaker 1: but our poor have health problems because they're obese.
- 4:38Speaker 3: Yes, our poor.
- 4:40Speaker 1: Are getting and it's not that this isn't a you know,
- 4:44Speaker 1: they don't deserve food. This is medically speaking, you're eating
- 4:48Speaker 1: too much. You're eating too many calories, and that's what
- 4:52Speaker 1: we have in our country and we're subsidizing that. I
- 4:55Speaker 1: don't think you can say the same thing about our military,
- 4:57Speaker 1: that they're eating too many calories.
- 4:58Speaker 3: Right.
- 5:00Speaker 1: This is the question is if they're willing to complain
- 5:04Speaker 1: about this, Is there anything that they won't complain about?
- 5:07Speaker 3: Good point, No, this is TDS. This is just another
- 5:10Speaker 3: version of TDS. Anything that Trump touches, anything he does,
- 5:14Speaker 3: it's like, let's hate, hate, hate on it, even if
- 5:17Speaker 3: it's the most common sense thing ever, like feeding our
- 5:20Speaker 3: troops healthy food.
- 5:21Speaker 4: Divide America. Let's divide them however we can as their motive.
- 5:24Speaker 1: And I'm pretty sure when my dad went off to Vietnam,
- 5:27Speaker 1: I don't think he got steak in lobster. I don't
- 5:29Speaker 1: think he got that. I know when he got back
- 5:31Speaker 1: he certainly didn't. So anyway, if you like to ask
