- 0:48Speaker 3: correspondent Tom Forman. Now, I am a person that wants
- 0:51Speaker 3: to keep the main thing the main thing. I don't
- 0:53Speaker 3: like when folks try to distract me, make me lose
- 0:55Speaker 3: focus of what the actual issue is. So it really
- 0:57Speaker 3: grinds my gears when I'm watching cable news and I
- 0:59Speaker 3: see situa Like CNN correspondent Tom Foreman, now Governor of Minnesota,
- 1:05Speaker 3: Tim Walls, who's now Kamala Harris' running mate. It's been
- 1:08Speaker 3: getting a lot of smokes the last couple of days.
- 1:09Speaker 3: His political and military record are under scrutiny, and Senator JD.
- 1:13Speaker 3: Vance accutes him of misleading the country about his veteran
- 1:16Speaker 3: status because of some comments he made about why weapons
- 1:19Speaker 3: of war should not be allowed on the street. Let's
- 1:21Speaker 3: listen to what Tim Walls had to say about.
- 1:22Speaker 1: That, Hope woll Cup like many of you did five
- 1:25Speaker 1: weeks ago, and Dad said, Dad, you're the only person
- 1:27Speaker 1: I know who's an elected office. You need to stop
- 1:29Speaker 1: what's happening with this. I'll take my kick in the
- 1:31Speaker 1: butt for the NRA. I spent twenty five years in
- 1:33Speaker 1: the army, and I hunt and I gave the money back.
- 1:36Speaker 1: And I'll tell you what I have been doing. I've
- 1:37Speaker 1: been voting for common sense legislation that protects a second Amendment.
- 1:40Speaker 1: But we can do background checks, we can do CDC research,
- 1:43Speaker 1: we can make sure we don't have reciprocal carry amongst states,
- 1:45Speaker 1: and we can make sure that those weapons of war
- 1:47Speaker 1: that I carried in war is the only place where
- 1:49Speaker 1: those weapons.
- 1:50Speaker 4: Were Sounds logical to me.
- 1:53Speaker 3: I mean we shouldn't allow weapons that are used in
- 1:55Speaker 3: war to be on America's streets, to be in the
- 1:57Speaker 3: hands of uh, you know, civilians, sounds very don't want
- 2:01Speaker 3: weapons of war on America's streets in the hands of.
- 2:03Speaker 4: Civilian sounds like common sense to me.
- 2:05Speaker 3: But like I said earlier, JD Van said, Tim Walls
- 2:07Speaker 3: misled the country about his veteran status.
- 2:09Speaker 4: Let's listen to what's end of the Jdvans had to say.
- 2:12Speaker 1: He has not spent a day in a combat zone.
- 2:14Speaker 2: What bothers me about Tim Waltz is the stolen valor garbage.
- 2:18Speaker 4: Do not pretend to be something that you're not. Cround
- 2:22Speaker 4: of applaud the Jdvans, round of applause. Maga.
- 2:25Speaker 3: Republicans are the best at distractions. They are the best
- 2:28Speaker 3: at deflecting and news networks for whatever reason, and eat
- 2:31Speaker 3: out of the pome of their hands. Because CNN corresponded,
- 2:34Speaker 3: Tom Foreman decided to fact check what Tim Wall said,
- 2:37Speaker 3: Let's listen.
- 2:38Speaker 2: Waltz did make a comment speaking to a group. He's
- 2:40Speaker 2: done it a couple of times where he has used
- 2:43Speaker 2: language that has suggested that he carried weapons in a
- 2:47Speaker 2: fighting situation. As you know, with your contact with the military,
- 2:51Speaker 2: I know from becoming from a military family. There is
- 2:53Speaker 2: a difference between being in a combat area, being involved
- 2:57Speaker 2: at a time of war, and actually being in a
- 3:00Speaker 2: tion where people are shooting at you. There is no
- 3:03Speaker 2: evidence that at any time Governor Waltz was in a
- 3:05Speaker 2: position of being shot at, and some of his language
- 3:08Speaker 2: could easily be seen to suggest.
- 3:10Speaker 4: That he was.
- 3:11Speaker 2: So that is absolutely false. When he said that about
- 3:15Speaker 2: gun rights out there.
- 3:16Speaker 3: Seeing in course Bond the tom foreman said, there is
- 3:18Speaker 3: no evidence Tim Walls carried weapons in combat.
- 3:21Speaker 4: Same thing JD Vance brought to the forefront.
- 3:24Speaker 3: Now that is a point of political debate on a
- 3:26Speaker 3: lot of these cable news networks. This is Leonard mckelvy
- 3:31Speaker 3: Charlamagne to God talking. I have one statement to make
- 3:33Speaker 3: about all of this. Who gives a f okay, I
- 3:36Speaker 3: don't care if Tim Walls did it did not carry
- 3:38Speaker 3: weapons of war in combat.
- 3:39Speaker 4: You know what I care about.
- 3:40Speaker 3: I care about what Tim Walls was actually bringing to
- 3:42Speaker 3: the forefront, and that is military style assault weapons should
- 3:45Speaker 3: not be in the hands of civilians. Military style assault
- 3:48Speaker 3: weapons are designed for maximum kills in combat situations. Okay,
- 3:51Speaker 3: military style assault weapons have the ability to fire rapidly,
- 3:54Speaker 3: and what high accuracy. It makes them beyond dangerous for
- 3:57Speaker 3: civilians to have. Okay, dude, just put up with choppers
- 4:01Speaker 3: laying down fifty to twenty people at concerts, churches. I
- 4:04Speaker 3: don't think there's been a setting in America that hasn't
- 4:06Speaker 3: experienced a mass shooting at this point. Okay, military style
- 4:09Speaker 3: assault weapons are the reason we have so many frequent
- 4:12Speaker 3: mass shootings. Okay, assault weapons are designed for military use.
- 4:16Speaker 3: The primary goal is to neutralize the endemy. They're not
- 4:20Speaker 3: necessary for self defense, our hunting, or any other civilian activity.
- 4:24Speaker 3: But Republicans don't want to have that conversation because having
- 4:27Speaker 3: that conversation means that they have to come up with
- 4:29Speaker 3: some type of common sense gun reform. But that's not
- 4:31Speaker 3: gonna happen because the gun lobbyists like the NRA are
- 4:34Speaker 3: in the pockets of most of these politicians. Why CNN
- 4:37Speaker 3: are you not talking about that issue.
- 4:40Speaker 4: That's the issue. Okay, fact check ten walls.
- 4:42Speaker 3: Fine, Now after you fact check them, let's make the
- 4:45Speaker 3: main thing the main thing. Let's center the conversation around
- 4:48Speaker 3: why weapons of war should not be in the hands
- 4:50Speaker 3: of civilians. This is why applaud Magga Republicans the way
- 4:53Speaker 3: they can deflect and avoid talking about what we need
- 4:56Speaker 3: to be talking about. To make cable news talk about
- 4:58Speaker 3: what they want to talk about is incredible, okay, and
- 5:02Speaker 3: we fall for it every time. I just spoke about
- 5:04Speaker 3: this on the Daily Show this week. News networks, y'all
- 5:07Speaker 3: control the headlines, y'all control with the points of debates.
- 5:10Speaker 3: Are you make the stories?
- 5:11Speaker 4: Could we please stay focused?
- 5:13Speaker 3: Whoever controls the media controls the minds and controls the narrative.
- 5:17Speaker 3: So when it comes to this selection, let's make sure
- 5:19Speaker 3: the right conversations are being centered. Please give CNN Corresponded
- 5:23Speaker 3: Tom formance the biggest e.
- 5:24Speaker 1: Huh.
- 5:29Speaker 3: I used to be like that when confronted about certain
- 5:31Speaker 3: things in my life.
- 5:34Speaker 4: The best have you thinking? It's you? You still do that?
- 5:38Speaker 1: Hey?
- 5:38Speaker 4: Hey, can you call me raggedy earlier than tell me?
- 5:42Speaker 1: Yes? You did?
- 5:43Speaker 4: They're gonna say, I'm just country.
- 5:44Speaker 2: No, I understand grammar. And when you say, y'all it's inclusive.
- 5:48Speaker 4: No, I was not the lie. Go ahead, lie gotta
- 5:56Speaker 4: running your blood pressure up over there trying to lie.
- 5:58Speaker 4: I don't take my statuntels.
- 6:02Speaker 1: And where you a donkey to day.
- 6:04Speaker 3: Donkey of Today is sponsored by renowned personal injury attorney
