Speaker 1: Straight ahead on this very patriotic edition of Real America.
0:04
Speaker 1: American Beginnings to the future of our Republic. Long before
0:08
Speaker 1: the first musket was ever fired for liberty, the true
0:11
Speaker 1: seeds of independence were planted by the brave souls aboard
0:14
Speaker 1: the Mayflower, and two hundred and fifty years later, that
0:17
Speaker 1: high stakes gamble still defines us all as Americans, plus
0:23
Speaker 1: paying the ultimate sacrifice for freedom. We're going to take
0:26
Speaker 1: a look back at all the conflicts, all the wars,
0:29
Speaker 1: all the scars that our country have endured. Why so
0:33
Speaker 1: that we could remain that beacon, that shining city on
0:36
Speaker 1: the hill for liberty and for freedom for the whole
0:38
Speaker 1: world to see. Will honor all the men and women
0:41
Speaker 1: that have done the uniform. And we're just about oh
0:45
Speaker 1: forty eight hours away from the biggest party in American history,
0:49
Speaker 1: featuring a massive military air show, a powerhouse musical lineup,
0:53
Speaker 1: and President Trump says, the biggest firework extravaganza you will
0:57
Speaker 1: ever see. We've got all the details, bull and Real
1:00
Speaker 1: America starts right now. Good evening to you, folks. You know,
1:26
Speaker 1: we often picture the American story beginning with the bloody
1:29
Speaker 1: chaos of the Revolutionary War, but long before that first
1:33
Speaker 1: musket fired in the name of liberty and our republic,
1:37
Speaker 1: the seeds of our democracy were planted by a desperate
1:40
Speaker 1: group of passengers cling to a hope, a hope for what,
1:44
Speaker 1: a better life, a new beginning. Let's go back. How
1:47
Speaker 1: about November sixteen twenty the Mayflower anchored off of Massachusetts
1:51
Speaker 1: what would become Massachusetts. Right winter was closing in. Supplies
1:54
Speaker 1: were all gone, survivors facing the thread of mutiny. And
1:57
Speaker 1: yet out of that brutal hardshe came the Mayflower Compact,
2:02
Speaker 1: a revolutionary agreement to govern by the will of the people.
2:06
Speaker 1: That spirit of self governance didn't instantly mean separation. Oh no.
2:10
Speaker 1: For more than a century, the New Americans were actually
2:12
Speaker 1: still British subjects, loyal to the Crown, yet fiercely protective
2:17
Speaker 1: of their local legislatures. But in the seventeen sixties things
2:20
Speaker 1: began to change when the Stamp Act levied the first
2:24
Speaker 1: direct tax on the colonial whale life. A century of
2:26
Speaker 1: relative independence was shattered by cries of no taxation without representation.
2:33
Speaker 1: Look what we deal with today. Independence wasn't the initial goal.
2:37
Speaker 1: They fought first simply to restore the rights they lived
2:39
Speaker 1: by But as King George declared them rebels and Thomas
2:43
Speaker 1: Paine's common sense led a fire through the colonies, that
2:47
Speaker 1: little seed of democracy erupted into an all out war
2:50
Speaker 1: for a new republic. By July of seventeen seventy six,
2:54
Speaker 1: that fire ignited what we know now as the modern America.
2:58
Speaker 1: Thirteen separate colonies, each with their own religions, economies, and laws,
3:02
Speaker 1: made a momentous leap of faith, declaring themselves as one
3:07
Speaker 1: united people. A group of patriots stepped forward to put
3:10
Speaker 1: their names on a piece of parchment paper and an
3:13
Speaker 1: act of absolute treason against at that time the most
3:16
Speaker 1: powerful empire on earth. They knew the price of failure
3:19
Speaker 1: was death. Yet two hundred and fifty years later, folks
3:23
Speaker 1: today this weekend, this declaration declaration rather remains relevant, a
3:28
Speaker 1: timeless reminder that our nation is built not just on
3:31
Speaker 1: independence from any outside powers, but on the enduring interdependence
3:37
Speaker 1: on each other one another Each American. Our revolutionary experiment
3:42
Speaker 1: faced one of its ultimate tests a century and a
3:44
Speaker 1: half later, when an economic revolution threatened to tear the
3:47
Speaker 1: nation apart from within. In the darkest depths of the
3:50
Speaker 1: Great Depression, America didn't look to the battlefield. Instead, a
3:55
Speaker 1: nation turned its eyes to a new leader, Franklin D. Roosevelt,
3:59
Speaker 1: who reminded the desperate nation of the true enemy in
4:02
Speaker 1: his first inauguration ceremony speech.
4:06
Speaker 2: Let me assert my firm belief that's the only thing
4:11
Speaker 2: we have to fear. Fear itself, nameless, unreasoning, unjustified terran
4:20
Speaker 2: which paralyzes needed up to convert retreat into advanced in
4:27
Speaker 2: every dark hour of our national life, a leadership of
4:32
Speaker 2: frankness and of figure has met with that understanding and
4:36
Speaker 2: support of the people themselves which is essential to victory.
4:42
Speaker 1: That powerful statement from FDR sparked a new era where
4:45
Speaker 1: independent citizens were reintroduced to the power of collective sacrifice
4:50
Speaker 1: through war and through industrial triumph. The Cold War then
4:53
Speaker 1: threatened our fragile balance, demanding not just government intervention but
4:57
Speaker 1: individual resolve. In January nineteen sixty one, a new generation
5:01
Speaker 1: of leadership step to the podium, passing the torch to
5:05
Speaker 1: every American with a call, a call to service, and
5:09
Speaker 1: that still resonates to this day. Do you remember this speech?
5:14
Speaker 3: And so, my fellow Americans, ask not what your country
5:20
Speaker 3: can do for you, ask what you can do for
5:23
Speaker 3: your country, My fellow citizens of the world, if not
5:36
Speaker 3: what America will do for you, but what together we
5:40
Speaker 3: can do for the freedom of man.
5:42
Speaker 1: Bring us now with more insight into America's rich history
5:46
Speaker 1: and our heritage. A true American patriot, historian, author and
5:50
Speaker 1: founder of Wall Builders David Barton on Real America for
5:54
Speaker 1: the first time. Mister Barton, pleasure to see you. I
5:57
Speaker 1: want folks to know we saw David speak on the
6:00
Speaker 1: deck of the Midway Aircraft carrier out here in San
6:03
Speaker 1: Diego a couple of weeks ago for Moms for Liberty.
6:06
Speaker 1: It was him and Glenn Beck and David, you blew
6:08
Speaker 1: me away with that speech. And that's why I wanted
6:10
Speaker 1: you as the lead guest on this program to bring
6:13
Speaker 1: in two hundred and fifty years as a nation. I
6:15
Speaker 1: left out a lot of history there, but please give
6:18
Speaker 1: our viewers a five minute history lesson on why we're
6:21
Speaker 1: still the greatest republic on God's green Earth. Welcome.
6:25
Speaker 4: Okay, we're so blessed run in ways that we don't
6:28
Speaker 4: even think about. Quite frankly, there's fifty eight hundred years
6:31
Speaker 4: of recorded history. Over that period of time, there have
6:34
Speaker 4: been thousands of nations and the University of Illinois and
6:37
Speaker 4: the University of Chicago Law School said, hey, what is
6:39
Speaker 4: the average length of a nation in the history of
6:42
Speaker 4: the world. And they did the research and for all
6:45
Speaker 4: those success in years, the average length of a constitutionary
6:48
Speaker 4: governing document is seventeen to nineteen years. So we're celebrating
6:52
Speaker 4: two hundred and fifty and we've got forty percent of them.
6:55
Speaker 4: Excuse me, only forty percent of Americans that are celebrating
6:58
Speaker 4: the two fiftieth. America doesn't realize how blessed we are.
7:01
Speaker 4: You take something like France. France had a revolution twenty
7:04
Speaker 4: years after we did. France has gone through fifteen constitutions
7:07
Speaker 4: in the same time we've had our one document. So
7:10
Speaker 4: we've been blessed beyond belief. It is hard to imagine
7:15
Speaker 4: Americans taking for granted the things we have. And I've
7:18
Speaker 4: loved all the fief of videos of all these people
7:21
Speaker 4: coming foreign nation saying are you kidding me? You get
7:23
Speaker 4: free refills, and you get more than two ice cubes
7:26
Speaker 4: in your drink, and you know things that we.
7:28
Speaker 1: Take and what is this ranch dressing? I hear the sacrificers.
7:31
Speaker 5: That's right, All the things we take for granted we
7:36
Speaker 5: don't recognize how blessed we are, how the rest of
7:39
Speaker 5: the world would love to be here, and that's that's
7:41
Speaker 5: a blessing from God.
7:42
Speaker 4: There's no quesse. The Bounty Fathers were strong men of
7:44
Speaker 4: religious faith. We haven't seen that in the last eighty
7:47
Speaker 4: years in our history books, but we have the original
7:50
Speaker 4: documents and they're very strong men of religious faith.
7:52
Speaker 1: Yes they were. And David, talk about that more because
7:55
Speaker 1: I feel like right now, and you mentioned those disgusting
7:58
Speaker 1: polls that we've seen on n about how only a
8:02
Speaker 1: certain percentage of Americans feel like they're patriotic, say they'll
8:05
Speaker 1: fly the flag this Saturday on the fourth of July.
8:07
Speaker 1: It mostly comes from the Democrat side. Conservatives and Republicans
8:10
Speaker 1: are still patriotic and still will be flying the flag.
8:13
Speaker 1: By the way, mind flies three hundred and sixty five
8:15
Speaker 1: days a year with a light on it unless it's
8:17
Speaker 1: a horrible storm. So I don't get these people that
8:19
Speaker 1: only fly it once a year. Anyway, the folks that
8:22
Speaker 1: don't understand that are out there saying, well, because I
8:25
Speaker 1: don't like President Trump, I'm not going to be patriotic
8:28
Speaker 1: this fourth of July. I'm not going to celebrate two fifty.
8:31
Speaker 1: That's asinine, David, because when Biden and Harris were in
8:34
Speaker 1: guess what, my flag was still flying. I was still
8:37
Speaker 1: wearing this pen. I was just complaining about the administration,
8:40
Speaker 1: but not my republic.
8:42
Speaker 4: Yeah, and that's a problem with our education system. We
8:45
Speaker 4: have so misrepresented. At thirty eight industrial nations in the
8:49
Speaker 4: world right now, and America comes in thirty eighth in education.
8:52
Speaker 4: We are the last in the industrial nations the world.
8:55
Speaker 4: It is not good. But when you go back and
8:57
Speaker 4: look at how special we were, and even talk about
8:59
Speaker 4: religious faith, the University of Houston said, you know, everybody's
9:03
Speaker 4: got access to the same set of ideas, So where
9:04
Speaker 4: did the Founding Fathers get theirs? I mean, why did
9:06
Speaker 4: we come up with something slashed two hundred and fifty
9:08
Speaker 4: years and everybody else that's seventeen to nineteen.
9:11
Speaker 6: And they went back and took three thousand, one hundred.
9:13
Speaker 4: They found one hundred and fifty four direct quotes of
9:16
Speaker 4: the Founding Fathers and one thousand Founding documents that related
9:19
Speaker 4: to government. And so they said, let's see who they quoted,
9:22
Speaker 4: and they found the number one source for quotes was
9:24
Speaker 4: the Bible. Thirty four percent of all the political quotes
9:27
Speaker 4: came out of the Bible, so thirty four percent Bible
9:29
Speaker 4: number one. Number two was Charles Monscue at seven point
9:32
Speaker 4: nine percent. Number three was William Blackstone eight point three.
9:36
Speaker 4: So the Bible far and away the most cited source
9:39
Speaker 4: in creating this. And yet we've gone through a secular,
9:41
Speaker 4: progressive education system that says, oh, no, the Founding Fathers
9:44
Speaker 4: were all atheist, agnostics, tists. We're a secular nation. That's
9:47
Speaker 4: why we're special. Founding fathers would never have agreed to that.
9:50
Speaker 1: No, they wouldn't have. And that's why we see in
9:52
Speaker 1: God we trust everywhere, on every building in DC, on
9:57
Speaker 1: all of our bills, Like come on, folks, last one
10:00
Speaker 1: to you, David, because I know you got to run
10:01
Speaker 1: and go give a tour and talk about our amazing republic.
10:04
Speaker 1: Right we're seeing the rise of the Democrat Socialist party.
10:09
Speaker 1: Right now, we're seeing old school Kennedy style Democrats either
10:13
Speaker 1: duck their head or agree with these radical socialists. I'll
10:17
Speaker 1: call them what the President did, These damn commies, these
10:19
Speaker 1: communists that are winning elections in Colorado, in Minnesota, in
10:23
Speaker 1: New York, in Texas. For God's sakes, we got to
10:27
Speaker 1: put a stop to it. I think after two hundred
10:29
Speaker 1: and fifty years, we've been through so much we'll get
10:31
Speaker 1: through this one too. But it seems pretty scary. Just
10:33
Speaker 1: give us a message of hope on this two hundred
10:36
Speaker 1: and fiftieth fourth of July.
10:37
Speaker 4: David Well, the big se message I hope we've got
10:39
Speaker 4: is the fact that right now it's one out of
10:41
Speaker 4: four Americans that choose as the president of the United States,
10:44
Speaker 4: we have more than half Americans who do not regist
10:46
Speaker 4: to vote or vote well, actually sixty five percent registered vote. Well,
10:49
Speaker 4: when you look at those that don't vote, out of
10:51
Speaker 4: those that are retured, you're looking at about half of
10:53
Speaker 4: American adults do not participate in elections, and half those
10:57
Speaker 4: American does. Some many of them are pray Toondic to God,
11:00
Speaker 4: and they love the nation. They just don't think they
11:02
Speaker 4: can make a difference. And when tens of millions sit
11:05
Speaker 4: by and say they can't make a difference, that'll cost
11:07
Speaker 4: us the midterm elections, which would cost us two years
11:09
Speaker 4: to the presidency, which will put.
11:11
Speaker 6: Us right back in the spot where the swamp. It's
11:13
Speaker 6: bigger again. This is in our hands.
11:15
Speaker 4: And when only six percent of Americans turn out for
11:17
Speaker 4: school board elections. Give me a break. Six percent. You
11:20
Speaker 4: got to be kidding me. A Sunday school class can
11:22
Speaker 4: take over a school board that they would just go vote.
11:25
Speaker 4: So it's something easy to fix. We can't get discouraged,
11:28
Speaker 4: we can't get depressed. We just got to get involved
11:30
Speaker 4: and do what we can.
11:31
Speaker 1: Amen, And let's remember what David said. It's a few
11:34
Speaker 1: moments ago. All these Founding documents, thirty four percent of
11:37
Speaker 1: every single one of our documents mentioned God and reference
11:41
Speaker 1: the Bible. And we used to give out the Bible
11:43
Speaker 1: as part of our curriculum in schools two hundred and
11:46
Speaker 1: fifty years ago. Am I right, David? So let's hang
11:48
Speaker 1: on to God and our patriotism.
11:52
Speaker 4: I'll just point out that I'm sitting here in DC
11:54
Speaker 4: right now, right beside the Capitol. Thomas Jeffson altered the
11:57
Speaker 4: plan of education for Washington, DC public schools. Thomas Jeffson
12:00
Speaker 4: put the Bible into the primary reading text in Washington,
12:02
Speaker 4: DC public schools. That's Thomas Jeffson, the least religious Founding father.
12:06
Speaker 6: He put the Bible in schools.
12:08
Speaker 1: That's why it's that important, folks. David Barton, author, historian,
12:12
Speaker 1: founder of Wall Builders, Sir, thank you for always paying
12:16
Speaker 1: tribute to this amazing republic. There will never be another
12:19
Speaker 1: one like her. Thank you, David. All right, coming up
12:23
Speaker 1: after the break, we're gonna honor our fighting men and
12:25
Speaker 1: women of the United States Armed Forces, because let's be real,
12:28
Speaker 1: as we celebrate America's two fifty, we got to remember
12:32
Speaker 1: why we are here and able to enjoy all the
12:35
Speaker 1: freedoms and liberties, and that's because of the brave men
12:38
Speaker 1: and women. Navy Seal Bradley Geary is gonna help honor
12:42
Speaker 1: the troops. Next, plus, we'll take you out to the massive,
12:45
Speaker 1: great American State Fair that's going on in our nation's
12:47
Speaker 1: capital right now, where our good old friend there is
12:50
Speaker 1: artist Patriots Scott Libato is Peyton the Flag. We'll talk
12:54
Speaker 1: all about that. Then a bit later on the program,
12:56
Speaker 1: America's Tenor, the amazing Christopher Machio is going to be
13:00
Speaker 1: performing with Lee Greenwood on the fourth of July. Right
13:03
Speaker 1: before the President speaks, he will join us and talk
13:06
Speaker 1: about how we're gonna honor America. Don't go away, lots

Speaker 1: up for the news and conservative talk you can't get
13:38
Speaker 1: anywhere else. Welcome back. As America prepares to celebrate her
13:50
Speaker 1: two hundred and fiftieth birthday, we must never forget that
13:53
Speaker 1: freedom isn't free. Our rights, liberties, and freedoms are written
13:56
Speaker 1: in the blood spilled by countless patriots since the inception
14:00
Speaker 1: of this great Republic, and our armed forces who defend
14:03
Speaker 1: it to this day are acutely aware of the sacrifices
14:07
Speaker 1: to keep us a truly sovereign nation. That sobering reality
14:11
Speaker 1: folks hit us today. I don't know if you've heard,
14:15
Speaker 1: but there is a search underway in the Arabian Sea
14:18
Speaker 1: for a missing sailor, this after his MH sixty Seahawk
14:24
Speaker 1: helicopter assigned to the USS. George H. W. Bush was
14:27
Speaker 1: forced to make an emergency water landing on Wednesday. Now
14:31
Speaker 1: three of the four crew members already rescued, just at
14:35
Speaker 1: moments after it's spilled into the sea. It's important reminder,
14:39
Speaker 1: as we prepare to honor two hundred and fifty years
14:41
Speaker 1: of freedom, that the price of our liberty is paid
14:44
Speaker 1: for every single day, folks, by people who down that uniform.
14:48
Speaker 1: We hope they find him, or at least recover him
14:50
Speaker 1: for his family's sakes. From the fields the Revolution to
14:53
Speaker 1: the sands of desert storm, the price of freedom has
14:55
Speaker 1: always been paid in human sacrifice. Through two World Wars,
15:00
Speaker 1: divided conflicts remote corners of the globe, generations of brave
15:03
Speaker 1: men and women have answered that call to serve. Each
15:07
Speaker 1: era carries its own scars, its own triumphs, tribulations and victories,
15:12
Speaker 1: and of course a debt of gratitude that we as
15:14
Speaker 1: a nation can never fully repay. And today, as we
15:19
Speaker 1: head in to our two hundred and fiftieth fourth of
15:21
Speaker 1: July celebration, we need to honor them all. When we
15:25
Speaker 1: think of the sheer scale of American military sacrifice, one
15:28
Speaker 1: tends to think of World War II, But if you
15:30
Speaker 1: look at the raw numbers. One conflict stands far above
15:35
Speaker 1: the rest. The Civil War. Between eighteen sixty one and
15:39
Speaker 1: eighteen sixty five, nearly twenty four percent of all service
15:42
Speaker 1: members were either killed or injured. That means roughly one
15:45
Speaker 1: out of every four Americans who put that uniform became
15:49
Speaker 1: a casualty. To put that in perspective, that rate is
15:52
Speaker 1: nearly four times higher than World War II or Vietnam.
15:57
Speaker 1: It remains by far the deadliest chapter of our history.
16:00
Speaker 1: This staggering legacy of sacrifice spans over two and a
16:03
Speaker 1: half centuries. It was that exact debt of gratitude the
16:06
Speaker 1: Vice President Jdvance highlighted at Naval Air Station Oceana in
16:10
Speaker 1: Virginia Beach, where he spoke to troops recently commemorating two
16:14
Speaker 1: hundred and fifty years of service and sacrifice.
16:19
Speaker 7: We have the best people, the best of us, from
16:22
Speaker 7: every walk of life, from every geography in the United
16:24
Speaker 7: States of America who are willing to put on the
16:27
Speaker 7: uniform of this country and serve to create that protective blanket.
16:33
Speaker 8: When we talk.
16:34
Speaker 7: About the Declaration of independence that protects life and liberty
16:38
Speaker 7: and the pursuit of happiness.
16:40
Speaker 9: It is your protective blanket that.
16:42
Speaker 7: Guarantees the life of every single one of our citizens.
16:46
Speaker 7: It is your dedication that ensures the liberty of every
16:50
Speaker 7: single one of our citizens.
16:52
Speaker 1: And JD thank you for your service as the United
16:54
Speaker 1: States Marine. Joining me now help me honor the men
16:57
Speaker 1: and women who keep us free. He knows a little
16:59
Speaker 1: thing about sacrifice. Retired Navy seal from Seal Team six,
17:04
Speaker 1: Bradley Gary beck on Real America. All right, squid frog man,
17:09
Speaker 1: today's the day. Today's the day we say thank you
17:13
Speaker 1: and celebrate. No, it's not Memorial Day and we're honoring
17:15
Speaker 1: the fall, and it's not Veterans Day. This is celebrating
17:18
Speaker 1: us as a nation. And it doesn't matter if you
17:21
Speaker 1: are red or blue, meaning Democrat or a Republican. This
17:26
Speaker 1: is about saying happy Birthday to all of us and
17:29
Speaker 1: remembering and honoring the men and women that keep us free.
17:32
Speaker 1: So let me say to you, Bradley, first and foremost,
17:35
Speaker 1: thank you, brother for your service. How are you? Yeah,
17:37
Speaker 1: thank you very much.
17:38
Speaker 10: Pleasure to be here, as always, appreciate you and the
17:40
Speaker 10: spirit of what you do.
17:41
Speaker 1: Here go America. Two fifty years America America. Nothing wrong
17:46
Speaker 1: with that? Are you like me? Getting a little perturbed
17:49
Speaker 1: at some of these new radical socialists and the Democrat
17:52
Speaker 1: Party that are forgetting to honor this nation. And I
17:56
Speaker 1: feel like because President Trump happens to be in charge
17:59
Speaker 1: during the two fifty, that they're throwing their patriotism to
18:02
Speaker 1: the wind, even the American flag because of one guy
18:05
Speaker 1: who happens to be in charge, instead of remembering that
18:08
Speaker 1: this is America. It doesn't matter who's in charge. Am
18:11
Speaker 1: I wrong? You're right?
18:13
Speaker 8: No, you're right.
18:14
Speaker 1: This is a republic, This is a great republic.
18:16
Speaker 10: It is a beacon of freedom, it is a We
18:19
Speaker 10: are a light on a hill for so many nations
18:21
Speaker 10: out there, and having visited nations that don't have the
18:24
Speaker 10: freedoms we have, it's incredibly disappointing to hear such naivety.
18:28
Speaker 10: When you read polls that sixty six percent of Democrats
18:32
Speaker 10: view socialism in a positive light, Well, they must not
18:35
Speaker 10: have been exposed to socialist governments or oppressive ideologies because
18:39
Speaker 10: they have the benefit of living in this bubble of
18:41
Speaker 10: protection that our nation has provided.
18:44
Speaker 1: That's great, we have freedom of speech, free them ideas.
18:46
Speaker 9: But it's just it frustrates me.
18:48
Speaker 10: As you and I talked a minute ago that some
18:50
Speaker 10: Americans are not putting flags out in their yard to
18:52
Speaker 10: celebrate our turn and a fiftieth anniversary because of, like
18:55
Speaker 10: you said, who's in the seat. I served under Clinton, Bush, Obama, Trump,
19:00
Speaker 10: Biden and Trump again, and never once did my loyalty
19:05
Speaker 10: to the nation waiver our oath of office to the
19:08
Speaker 10: Constitution the United States. We celebrate an idea, and the
19:11
Speaker 10: flag represents this aspirational idea, regardless of who sits in.
19:15
Speaker 1: The seat, and if you don't like it, vote next time.
19:18
Speaker 10: Differently, there's not a reason to abandon our core values.
19:22
Speaker 10: There's not a reason to abandon our principles and certainly
19:27
Speaker 10: what the Constitution represents.
19:28
Speaker 1: Forget about who's in the seat.
19:30
Speaker 10: This is a day that across both sides of the aisle,
19:32
Speaker 10: we should unify around the flag, a symbol of freedom,
19:36
Speaker 10: and barbecue together. As James Madison excuse me out to
19:40
Speaker 10: John Adams wrote to his wife back in seventeen seventy six,
19:43
Speaker 10: this day should be devoted to solemn acts of devotion
19:46
Speaker 10: to God almighty, pomp and parade games, sports, guns, guns, guns, bells, bonfires,
19:53
Speaker 10: and eliminations.
19:54
Speaker 8: What day, let's go, let's.
19:56
Speaker 1: Blow things up. Adams should be going some guns and
19:58
Speaker 1: let's celebrate. Yeah, Adam is new partying celebrating because nobody
20:03
Speaker 1: has ever done this before, no one has ever lasted
20:07
Speaker 1: this long. We had a story and on earlier Bradley,
20:10
Speaker 1: and nobody that's tried to do a constitution give the
20:12
Speaker 1: power to the people. The average is seventeen to twenty years.
20:15
Speaker 1: Nobody's made it two hundred and fifty years. Bradley, thank
20:20
Speaker 1: you for just that little brief reminder of why we
20:22
Speaker 1: should all be proud Americans. And let us never forget
20:25
Speaker 1: to honor the men and women that keep us free.
20:28
Speaker 1: And that's the thousands and thousands that have gone before
20:31
Speaker 1: you me are Vice President and have worn that uniform,
20:34
Speaker 1: whether it's the newly created Space Force, the Coasting's and
20:37
Speaker 1: the Coast Guard, the Navy, the Army of the Marines,
20:39
Speaker 1: or the Air Force. We got to remember to honor
20:41
Speaker 1: them all because they keep us free. Bradley Geary Seal
20:45
Speaker 1: Team six retired Navy Seal God bless your brother. Have
20:48
Speaker 1: a hell of a powers this weekend. Thanks dam Let's party,

21:53
Speaker 11: He's remaking Washington in his image, with his name on things.
22:00
Speaker 11: I mean, isn't that part of the issue. I mean,
22:03
Speaker 11: you're saying it's hate of the country. I don't hear
22:06
Speaker 11: a lot of hate of the country from you know,
22:10
Speaker 11: from people who are Democrats in DC. It's dislike of
22:16
Speaker 11: the president.
22:18
Speaker 12: Well, I would encourage you to listen to some of
22:20
Speaker 12: the interviews that have been given by the Democrat candidates
22:22
Speaker 12: who've recently won primaries, and I would encourage you to
22:25
Speaker 12: read the polling that's come out just this week in
22:28
Speaker 12: the last few days from the Gallup organization about the
22:30
Speaker 12: patriotism gap that exists. I'm sorry to tell you, Republicans
22:34
Speaker 12: love this country and they always love it no matter
22:36
Speaker 12: who's in charge.
22:37
Speaker 1: That's right, Anderson Cooper, By the way, listen to Scott.
22:40
Speaker 1: You should check out some of the polling that CNN
22:43
Speaker 1: has actually aired. Democrats not talking about the elected officials,
22:48
Speaker 1: but voters actually are not very patriotic, a big portion
22:53
Speaker 1: of them, and you propagandas that CNN are trying to
22:56
Speaker 1: cover up for them. Oh no, it's all about Trump.
22:58
Speaker 1: It's not about love of country. Democrats are patriotic. No, no, no,
23:02
Speaker 1: A big portion of Democrats today are not patriotic. They
23:05
Speaker 1: don't love this country. They want to turn us into
23:07
Speaker 1: a socialist or god forbid, communist country. But guess what
23:12
Speaker 1: this week during our One Day Early Woke segment, because
23:15
Speaker 1: it's the fourth of July and we're celebrating two hudred
23:17
Speaker 1: and fifty years, we're going to kick it off with
23:19
Speaker 1: trying to show our pride. First, we'll show you how
23:23
Speaker 1: one party does not show pride. This should come as
23:27
Speaker 1: no surprise that the Democrats literally are supporting communist candidates,
23:33
Speaker 1: people that support wide open borders, defunding ICE, abolishing police departments,
23:39
Speaker 1: free housing, free healthcare, free food stamps, and yes, they
23:43
Speaker 1: do hate America. The numbers don't lie. Gallup says fifty
23:47
Speaker 1: eight percent of US adults say they're extremely or very
23:51
Speaker 1: proud of America. I can't believe we're only barely sixty percent.
23:54
Speaker 1: That's disgusting, huge drop from last year. And the fake
23:59
Speaker 1: news they don't care to break it down and tell
24:02
Speaker 1: you the truth. Now, this next clip is a woke
24:07
Speaker 1: and a non woke, And let me explain. Pennsylvania Democrat
24:11
Speaker 1: Senator John Fetterman. He gets it right. He's tired of
24:14
Speaker 1: a segment of his party being anti American and not
24:19
Speaker 1: celebrating America's two fifty. So at least he goes on
24:22
Speaker 1: the fake news media and stands up for what's right,
24:25
Speaker 1: even though a majority of his party are a bunch
24:27
Speaker 1: of anti American woke You guys can bleep this, ask roll.
24:32
Speaker 13: It and when it's you know, two hundred and fifty
24:35
Speaker 13: years to celebrate America. Why wouldn't you make sure that
24:39
Speaker 13: your state's going to be there and now and turning
24:42
Speaker 13: it into owns about no, there's not this or not
24:46
Speaker 13: this whatever thing. You know, Patriotism is by partisan and
24:51
Speaker 13: I hate to see people arguing. And I see the
24:54
Speaker 13: polls of people in my party.
24:56
Speaker 1: Yeah, thank you. Even liberal talk show host Bill Maher,
25:00
Speaker 1: who you know, I don't like him, is calling out
25:03
Speaker 1: Democrats who are spitting on America's two hundred and fiftieth
25:08
Speaker 1: just because they hate Donald Trump. So I'll say it,
25:11
Speaker 1: thank you, Bill Maher.
25:14
Speaker 14: This fourth of July, let's celebrate the genius American idea
25:19
Speaker 14: of checks and balances, which, yes, is threatened and yes,
25:23
Speaker 14: is taking on water, but is still afloat like those
25:27
Speaker 14: tall ships. I remember from nineteen seventy six. Oh yes,
25:30
Speaker 14: I remember. I was twenty and I wore a Bisonennial
25:34
Speaker 14: T shirt that whole summer.
25:41
Speaker 8: Yeah, man, I.
25:43
Speaker 14: Wore it every day, and nobody thought it meant that
25:45
Speaker 14: I loved Nixon because fifty years ago liberals didn't concede patriotism.
25:52
Speaker 1: Right joining me, Now, what a great line. They didn't
25:55
Speaker 1: concede their patriotism over who was president? Here now to
26:00
Speaker 1: talk more about these woke fourth of July headlines. Founder
26:04
Speaker 1: of Frontline America, host of Law and border On rev
26:07
Speaker 1: and our pal independent journalist. And he's in our nation's
26:10
Speaker 1: capital at the Nashall Mall in front of that beautiful
26:13
Speaker 1: blue it's blue again reflecting pool Ben berkwamback on the program.
26:17
Speaker 1: Hey Ben, it looks nice and blue, right.
26:19
Speaker 15: They It absolutely is, and they unfortunately they had to
26:23
Speaker 15: put a fence up around it to keep the crazy
26:25
Speaker 15: libtards from going in there and trying to turn it
26:27
Speaker 15: green again. It is beautiful, it's reflecting, It's America. It's
26:31
Speaker 15: what we all should be celebrating. Whether you're a Democrat
26:33
Speaker 15: or Republican.
26:34
Speaker 1: Amen. Isn't it funny you have to get a pot
26:37
Speaker 1: smoking hippie Bill Maher TV host to tell their own
26:40
Speaker 1: Democrat party, Hey, idiots, look at me forty fifty years ago.
26:45
Speaker 1: I was patriotic and he didn't even like Nixon, but
26:47
Speaker 1: he wore a flag. Sure, he went to the celebration
26:50
Speaker 1: in seventeen or nineteen seventy six. He had a good time.
26:54
Speaker 1: He said, why do you think Ben isn't just their TDS.
26:58
Speaker 1: Is it just the Trump arrangement syndrome? But I think
27:00
Speaker 1: it's deeper. I think you have a big PORTI of
27:02
Speaker 1: Democrats who believe in socialism and even communism.
27:06
Speaker 16: Yeah.
27:06
Speaker 15: No, it's much deeper than that. I mean, the TDS
27:09
Speaker 15: is the icing on the cake for the left. But
27:11
Speaker 15: this is fifty years of indoctrination in leftist schools that
27:15
Speaker 15: have taught young people that America is a terrible country,
27:18
Speaker 15: that there's nothing good that ever came out of this country,
27:20
Speaker 15: that everything is is division and slavery, and we've never
27:25
Speaker 15: made our wrongs right. They've ignored all of the good
27:28
Speaker 15: and they focused on all of the bad, and they
27:30
Speaker 15: created a generation of Montdomie's. You know, obviously he came
27:33
Speaker 15: from out of the country, but they've created a generation
27:36
Speaker 15: that hate this country. And so you have a combination now.
27:39
Speaker 15: The base of the Democrat Party. Unfortunately, it's not Bill
27:41
Speaker 15: mah anymore. It's not Fetterman anymore, which is ironic that
27:45
Speaker 15: Fetterman would be the hero of the Democrat Party these days.
27:48
Speaker 8: But it's at the base of the.
27:49
Speaker 15: Democrat Party is communist jihad and it is not patriotism.
27:53
Speaker 15: Anderson Cooper can lie to you all day long, he
27:55
Speaker 15: can pretend all he wants. But all you have to
27:57
Speaker 15: do is go on any college campus in America and
28:00
Speaker 15: walk around with an American flag and see the response
28:02
Speaker 15: you get.
28:03
Speaker 8: Oh, they hate this country.
28:04
Speaker 1: Hold on, speaking of flags, I got a whole bunch
28:06
Speaker 1: of headlines related to the flag. Let's hit all those. Okay,
28:09
Speaker 1: here's some wacko liberal out in front of a Bass
28:12
Speaker 1: Pro shop, I think yesterday or day before, and he's
28:15
Speaker 1: upset about the flag. Watch this crap.
28:18
Speaker 8: What the hell.
28:22
Speaker 1: Is this?
28:28
Speaker 17: I've never seen so many American flags ever in my
28:32
Speaker 17: entire life. I'm I'm not confused about one country I'm
28:38
Speaker 17: in right now. But there's more kids.
28:48
Speaker 8: At the bass Pro shops.
28:53
Speaker 9: And hell.
29:03
Speaker 1: Afraid to go inside. Afraid to go inside because the
29:08
Speaker 1: owner of bass Pro Shop, who is a Patriot in
29:11
Speaker 1: my book, has flags all over the driveway of his
29:15
Speaker 1: his business around America. And you're offended by it, you're
29:20
Speaker 1: scared of it. You definitely know what you know. What
29:22
Speaker 1: if you don't know what country, go to a country anyway.
29:25
Speaker 15: Men, Look, if you're if you're offended by American flags,
29:30
Speaker 15: bass Pro Shop is not the store for you to
29:32
Speaker 15: shop in. That is America, a quintessential America. And anyone
29:36
Speaker 15: who is afraid to go in a store that has
29:38
Speaker 15: American flags, again, you've just been taught the wrong thing.
29:42
Speaker 15: This is the land of the free because of the brave.
29:44
Speaker 15: We get our freedoms from God, but they're protected by
29:47
Speaker 15: men and women that they're red on. That flag represents
29:50
Speaker 15: the blood, the sacrifice that allows you your free speech.
29:53
Speaker 15: Thank you, that allows you to say whatever you want
29:55
Speaker 15: to say. Uh, so that you know, if you're that stupid,
29:58
Speaker 15: I would just recommend you shopping at some leftist outlet. Face.
30:02
Speaker 1: But they learn it from their Democrat leaders. Like let's
30:06
Speaker 1: go to the city of Boston. We know they got
30:09
Speaker 1: that radical what's your last name? Wu the mayor there,
30:11
Speaker 1: she's an idiot, right, you saw what they did in
30:14
Speaker 1: front Yeah, in front of their city building. Roll the video.
30:18
Speaker 1: They raised the Somali flag.
30:20
Speaker 6: The City of Boston is a community that's made stronger
30:24
Speaker 6: by all of our cultures and all of our traditions
30:27
Speaker 6: and histories coming together.
30:28
Speaker 1: City Hall stands with our Somali community. We see you,
30:32
Speaker 1: We know that Boston.
30:33
Speaker 8: Is your home.
30:34
Speaker 1: Off cut it off, Cut it off. Ben Really the
30:37
Speaker 1: Somali flag during the Fourth of July weekend. You're proud
30:40
Speaker 1: to fly that.
30:42
Speaker 8: You know, this is it. This is the look.
30:45
Speaker 15: If you don't see the divide in our country. And
30:46
Speaker 15: I wish it weren't like that. I wish it was
30:48
Speaker 15: the Democrats and Republicans of old, or Democrats of old
30:51
Speaker 15: at least where we disagreed on policy, but we loved America.
30:54
Speaker 15: We came together and said, how do we fix these problems?
30:57
Speaker 15: Now you have a party that has totally lost its mind,
31:00
Speaker 15: and you cannot see something like that and not realize it.
31:03
Speaker 15: Simalians came here to escape Somalia. If you love the
31:06
Speaker 15: Somali flag so much, go back to Somolia. If you're
31:10
Speaker 15: in America, be proud of America.
31:12
Speaker 1: Thanks.
31:12
Speaker 8: Otherwise, get the hell out.
31:13
Speaker 1: Well. It doesn't help when you have idiot mayors like
31:15
Speaker 1: good old Jacob Frye in Minneapolis, Minnesota doing this this
31:20
Speaker 1: past week, roll this one in Minneapolis.
31:23
Speaker 18: We love our neighbors in Minneapolis. We do not see
31:27
Speaker 18: you as immigrants. We see you as our family. You're brothers,
31:37
Speaker 18: you're our sisters. You have done so much for this
31:42
Speaker 18: incredible city, and for that we.
31:45
Speaker 1: Stand with you. Speak in their language, fly in their flags.
31:52
Speaker 1: How about you pick up the American flag, mister Fry
31:55
Speaker 1: and say, welcome, Somalians. You're Somali Americans. Be proud under
31:59
Speaker 1: the red, white and blue.
32:01
Speaker 15: Then yeah, yeah, well, and he says they've done so
32:04
Speaker 15: much for the city. I guess if you count the
32:05
Speaker 15: amount of fraud that they've brought into the city. That's
32:07
Speaker 15: the question I have for Fries. How has he not
32:10
Speaker 15: been arrested yet? Along with Governor Walls, they look at
32:13
Speaker 15: what the attacks on ice. It's all to cover up
32:15
Speaker 15: their fraud. The only thing that that community has done
32:18
Speaker 15: is made Minnesota at Minneapolis a worst city and a
32:21
Speaker 15: worst state community.
32:22
Speaker 1: One more Democrat leaders in the Pennsylvania State House. The
32:26
Speaker 1: female Democrat speaker, the leader of it, kicked out show
32:30
Speaker 1: the image, kicked out a Republican who wore this suit.
32:33
Speaker 1: Now as a veteran, there are rules about the flag.
32:37
Speaker 1: You don't wear the flag, you don't lay the flag down.
32:39
Speaker 1: That's not a flag. That's a jacket that has red
32:42
Speaker 1: and white stripes and a tie that has stars. It's
32:44
Speaker 1: not thirteen stripes, it's not fifty stars. So he's not
32:47
Speaker 1: breaking the code of ethics for the flag. He's wearing
32:49
Speaker 1: a patriotic suit. They kicked him out of their forum
32:53
Speaker 1: because they didn't like the suit in Pennsylvania.
32:56
Speaker 8: Final word to you, Ben, Look, you know it all started.
33:00
Speaker 15: We're gonna go up. I'm with my family, We're joining Washington.
33:03
Speaker 15: We're gonna go up to see the Liberty Bell in
33:04
Speaker 15: Philadelphia'm gonna be speaking up there next week. And to
33:07
Speaker 15: think that you can't even wear a suit like that, now,
33:09
Speaker 15: I guarantee you when Democrats were in power, they could
33:12
Speaker 15: wear a BLM shirt into that building and get away
33:15
Speaker 15: with it, or American flag. That's the upside down world
33:19
Speaker 15: and all the pride crap. You're right, that's the upside
33:21
Speaker 15: down country that we live in today. We have to
33:23
Speaker 15: turn it around.
33:24
Speaker 1: Well, the good thing is I end on a good,
33:26
Speaker 1: non woke you're there, thousands of Americans are there. We're
33:30
Speaker 1: going to celebrate two hundred and fifty and a fourth
33:33
Speaker 1: of July and an America Republic that nobody's had, nobody
33:36
Speaker 1: ever will. And that's how I end this segment. Let's
33:40
Speaker 1: be proud Americans. Ben, God bless your brother, stay.
33:43
Speaker 15: Safe, God bless you, God bless America.
33:45
Speaker 1: You got it up. Next We're going to take you
33:46
Speaker 1: to the Great American State Fair, which was just behind
33:50
Speaker 1: Ben right there. Guess who's there, Our friend Scott Lobato.
33:53
Speaker 1: He's painting that American flag. They'll give us a little
33:55
Speaker 1: history lesson on that, introduce us to some of the crowd,
33:58
Speaker 1: and we'll talk about red, white and Blue when we
34:01
Speaker 1: come back. For all of our viewers out there asking
34:07
Speaker 1: where to watch one American News, we'd like to introduce
34:10
Speaker 1: you to on Live. On Live is the best way
34:13

Speaker 1: Emerica is turning two hundred and fifty and proud patriots
35:02
Speaker 1: from coast to coast are gathering on our National Mall
35:05
Speaker 1: in Washington, d C. Experiencing all sorts of things, food, fun, history,
35:11
Speaker 1: patriotism from a towering ferris wheel framing the Washington Monument
35:16
Speaker 1: to thunderous military flyovers overhead. The massive event showcases over
35:20
Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty exhibits from almost all fifty states
35:25
Speaker 1: and six territories. At the Great American State Fair, you
35:30
Speaker 1: can actually take.
35:31
Speaker 10: A drive down one of the country roads on our
35:33
Speaker 10: driving simulator.
35:34
Speaker 15: It is a functional mechanical milking cow.
35:37
Speaker 1: The culture, the food, the excitement. It is truly a
35:42
Speaker 1: state that welcomes all people.
35:44
Speaker 19: At You go into like a three D section here
35:47
Speaker 19: of each section where you're at either the desert or
35:51
Speaker 19: right here, kind of like the woods part of it,
35:53
Speaker 19: the course that's out of the years on a beautia.
35:55
Speaker 1: Yeah. So regardless what the lamestream media says about the
36:00
Speaker 1: State Fair, like, oh, nobody's showing up and it's not
36:03
Speaker 1: that great. The crowds are low. Yeah, it's because Donald
36:05
Speaker 1: Trump's doing it, so they have to lie to you. Okay,
36:10
Speaker 1: how about CNN, MSNBC, Axios, Reuters, you pieces of reporting garbage.
36:16
Speaker 1: How about you start honoring two and a half centuries
36:20
Speaker 1: of freedom. Let's do that instead of being obsessed with
36:23
Speaker 1: President Trump and trying to act like this party isn't
36:27
Speaker 1: a great thing, start being patriots for a second. Because
36:32
Speaker 1: the party that's going on in our national Mall for
36:34
Speaker 1: the last couple of weeks has been amazing military flyovers, bands, singers,
36:41
Speaker 1: some celebrities that have the guts to show up. The
36:44
Speaker 1: President given great speech. Is the UFC fight this fair.
36:47
Speaker 1: We're about to talk about politics aside. It's about we,
36:52
Speaker 1: the people in this republic, and that includes our next guest.
36:56
Speaker 1: And you know he's a heck of a patriot. I'm
36:58
Speaker 1: talking about artist, conservative activist, our friend Scott Lebato. Scotty,
37:03
Speaker 1: if you didn't know this, by the way, spent a
37:05
Speaker 1: full year painting Old Glory that's right, the stars and
37:09
Speaker 1: stripes on rooftops from coast to coast twenty five years
37:14
Speaker 1: ago in the wake of nine to eleven. Why because
37:17
Speaker 1: he felt that overwhelming pull of patriotism after we were hit.
37:22
Speaker 1: And now, twenty five years later, guess what, he's still
37:25
Speaker 1: on that same mission, painting the red, white and blue
37:29
Speaker 1: for all to see. And he's doing it right now
37:32
Speaker 1: on the National Mall at the Great American State Fair.
37:36
Speaker 1: Take a look at this.
37:58
Speaker 20: You see that video that you saw, folks, of all
38:01
Speaker 20: those people, they're here at the Great American State Fan.
38:06
Speaker 8: There's thousands and thousands of people. So all of you hate.
38:11
Speaker 20: Us in the liberal media who keep telling stories that
38:14
Speaker 20: there's nothing going on, that this fair is a failure.
38:18
Speaker 20: Get your ass down here and witness the most awesome
38:21
Speaker 20: thing that I have ever experienced.
38:24
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I can't get my ass down there in person,
38:27
Speaker 1: but I'm getting with him right now. Our friend, artist
38:30
Speaker 1: activist Patriotscott Lebato joins us from the National Mall at
38:34
Speaker 1: the Great American State Fair, where literally there's a huge
38:37
Speaker 1: crowd right behind him. He just showed me before we
38:40
Speaker 1: went on, but they're staying nice and quiet while we
38:42
Speaker 1: conduct the interview. So you have to take my word
38:45
Speaker 1: for it. I guess the fake news will say, Scotty,
38:47
Speaker 1: you're lying. Nobody's coming out to the fair because Trump
38:50
Speaker 1: put it on. That's a big crocker, you know what,
38:52
Speaker 1: isn't it.
38:55
Speaker 8: Listen?
38:56
Speaker 20: First, I want to start off by thanking the Democrats
38:59
Speaker 20: that are actually here. I'm meeting Democrats, people that know
39:02
Speaker 20: who I am, they know my politics, but they're here
39:05
Speaker 20: not to talk politics. They're here for the same reason
39:07
Speaker 20: I'm here to celebrate America.
39:09
Speaker 8: And what does that prove to me?
39:11
Speaker 20: That proves to me that the Democrats the real Democrats,
39:14
Speaker 20: the old school Democrats.
39:16
Speaker 8: They want to embrace that flag.
39:17
Speaker 20: They want to embrace this special day, this patriotic birthday
39:21
Speaker 20: that we're having, and they are they are parting from
39:24
Speaker 20: their radical, vicious liberals on the other side. And that
39:28
Speaker 20: is the only way that we are going to fix
39:30
Speaker 20: this country. When those Democrats that I am seeing right
39:33
Speaker 20: here come out of that closet and say, hey, we
39:37
Speaker 20: don't agree with each other politically, we're not supposed to.
39:39
Speaker 20: The discourse is what makes this country delicious. But it's
39:43
Speaker 20: the radicals that destroy it. So they need to remove
39:45
Speaker 20: themselves from those radicals and join this birthday party because
39:49
Speaker 20: it is epic. You know what, I will say this.
39:51
Speaker 20: It is one hundred and seventy five degrees out and
39:54
Speaker 20: there's nobody here right now.
39:56
Speaker 8: It's really quiet.
39:57
Speaker 1: Hella, hey, everybody, how's it going? I love that, And Scott,
40:06
Speaker 1: thanks for putting that out. By the way, I don't
40:08
Speaker 1: think the crowds have been smaller over the last couple
40:10
Speaker 1: of days because they hate Donald Trump or they hate
40:13
Speaker 1: the country. It is, literally, folks, one hundred and two
40:16
Speaker 1: degrees in our nation's capital today and it could reach
40:20
Speaker 1: one oh seven by Saturday's festivities. So it's the heat,
40:25
Speaker 1: not the president and not the country. But yes, some
40:28
Speaker 1: Democrats and wacko liberals and media folks are saying nobody's
40:32
Speaker 1: attending because it's Trump, or they're not feeling patriotic. No,
40:36
Speaker 1: it's called the heat. They don't want to have heat
40:38
Speaker 1: stroke anyway, Scotty, can we talk about the flag, the
40:41
Speaker 1: symbol of our freedom, our liberty? Something I told the
40:46
Speaker 1: viewers that maybe they don't know about you that twenty
40:48
Speaker 1: five years ago you went around the country painting. And
40:50
Speaker 1: I'm not talking about a little flag on the side
40:53
Speaker 1: of a building, like a small mural. This guy put
40:56
Speaker 1: flags up like the circumference of an Amazon where and
41:00
Speaker 1: people's massive old barns. And how many do you know
41:03
Speaker 1: how many flags you painted in that year?
41:05
Speaker 8: By the way, Scutty, I have thousands and thousands.
41:09
Speaker 20: I have three giant flag murals in every single state
41:12
Speaker 20: and on canvases.
41:13
Speaker 8: I have so many. Look i'd like to I'm gonna
41:17
Speaker 8: be a little selfish yere.
41:20
Speaker 20: People ask me all the time, even my friends and fans,
41:22
Speaker 20: They say, Scott, we get it. You love the flag,
41:25
Speaker 20: you love America, you love your veterans.
41:27
Speaker 8: So no, can you paint something else.
41:28
Speaker 20: And my answer is you know and my haters of course,
41:31
Speaker 20: so like why are you painting a flag? It's an
41:32
Speaker 20: oppressive symbol of but it's personal to me because if
41:37
Speaker 20: you look up in the dictionary freedom, the word freedom
41:40
Speaker 20: is my picture.
41:42
Speaker 8: I'm an artist.
41:43
Speaker 20: I don't answer to nobody, sometimes my girlfriend, sometimes God.
41:47
Speaker 20: But other than that, nothing I do I express. I
41:50
Speaker 20: do what I want. I saw like an evil. I
41:53
Speaker 20: am the epitome of freedom. And the only people that
41:57
Speaker 20: I will give credit to or actually answer to is
42:03
Speaker 20: those men and women who made that sacrifice, both right
42:08
Speaker 20: and limb listen.
42:11
Speaker 8: For his jack gass, because I can be a jackass.
42:13
Speaker 8: If you know me, that can be a jackass.
42:15
Speaker 20: Know what, I'm allowed to be a jackass because of
42:17
Speaker 20: those men and women under that flag.
42:21
Speaker 1: That's it.
42:22
Speaker 8: So all I want to do is one message.
42:24
Speaker 20: Let me get this message out to the young folks,
42:27
Speaker 20: the protesters who I disagree with, who protests for against
42:31
Speaker 20: something that I totally disagree with. God bless you for
42:35
Speaker 20: being able to protest.
42:36
Speaker 8: I have your back.
42:37
Speaker 20: I will die for you to protest, even if I
42:39
Speaker 20: disagree with it.
42:40
Speaker 8: But one thing you need to understand.
42:43
Speaker 20: When I protest, and I've done it a thousand times,
42:46
Speaker 20: and I've been arrested dozens of times.
42:48
Speaker 8: I told that flag with me, that American flag is.
42:51
Speaker 20: With me because she gives me the right to be
42:54
Speaker 20: that protest and jackass.
42:56
Speaker 1: That I am.
42:57
Speaker 20: When I seen you punks with the flag under your
43:00
Speaker 20: shoes are set on fire or you're spitting and pissing
43:04
Speaker 20: on it.
43:05
Speaker 8: If you did that in front of me, I'd be
43:07
Speaker 8: in jail again.
43:08
Speaker 20: So all I'm asking you to do is be you,
43:11
Speaker 20: be liberal, be purple head, whatever you want.
43:15
Speaker 8: To do right escapeboard smoking joint. I don't care.
43:18
Speaker 20: But remember why you can do with that, Remember why
43:21
Speaker 20: you could be you?
43:24
Speaker 1: Was that baby right there? Yes, Scott Lebato, everybody, Happy
43:30
Speaker 1: birthday America. And let's always always remember to honor the
43:35
Speaker 1: stars and stripes. God bless those Americans out there celebrating
43:38
Speaker 1: two fifty. Thank you guys, God bless you, God bless Scottie.
43:42
Speaker 1: Thank you brother. Now get back to painting. By the way,
43:45
Speaker 1: my wife and I would love one of your originals
43:48
Speaker 1: in our living room. I'm gonna call you and talk
43:49
Speaker 1: to you about that.
43:50
Speaker 8: I want to.
43:50
Speaker 1: Flag you right here.
43:51
Speaker 8: And Ball said he's gonna pay a million.
43:53
Speaker 1: Dollars cut him off. God bless you. Happy birthday, America, Ledo.
44:01
Speaker 1: Let's do mail. All right, let's read some mail, because
44:11
Speaker 1: we promised you. Who's up first, guys? Oh, Mike says,
44:15
Speaker 1: hey Dan. Watching President trumpet the Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library
44:18
Speaker 1: having a conversation with an AI version of President Theodore
44:21
Speaker 1: Roosevelt was quite impressive. Could you imagine if Joe Biden
44:24
Speaker 1: were there, he'd just said, come on, man, he can't
44:27
Speaker 1: still be alive. That's true, Mike. Oh. Jeannette says, hey Dan,
44:33
Speaker 1: he's known to us as Talafreco. Ah. She's talking about
44:38
Speaker 1: James tall Rico, the liberal Waco Democrat in Texas running
44:42
Speaker 1: for US Senate against Ken Paxton. His name's tall Rico,
44:45
Speaker 1: but down there they call him Talafreco. Thank you for that.
44:49
Speaker 1: Tracy says, dear Dan, I just watched oh the movie,
44:52
Speaker 1: must watch Citizen Vigilante. Watching it again. All I can
44:55
Speaker 1: say is everyone adult with a pulse must watch this movie. PS.
45:00
Speaker 1: Perhaps a redemnitive role for mister Hammer. Yep, mister Hammer
45:04
Speaker 1: got in some trouble a while back, but all the
45:05
Speaker 1: charges were dropped. He did a great job, and finally,
45:08
Speaker 1: Elizabeth says, mister Mall, I'm convinced that you and I
45:11
Speaker 1: are related. When I tuned into your program and I
45:13
Speaker 1: immediately saw you, I had a strong resemblance to my father,
45:16
Speaker 1: Fletcher Allen Ball. I see it in your hairline, your
45:19
Speaker 1: hair texture. She goes on to say, your jawline, general
45:22
Speaker 1: facial structure, blue eyes. Then I saw your hands. Well, Elizabeth,
45:27
Speaker 1: I looked at your email. You think I'm from Tennessee.
45:31
Speaker 1: I'm not. That's a different Dan Ball. I'm from Ohio,
45:33
Speaker 1: but my father's side of the family is from Cumberland Gap, Virginia,
45:37
Speaker 1: so we could be maybe, maybe distantly related. I'm not
45:41
Speaker 1: quite sure, but thank you all for watching. Appreciate that.
45:45
Speaker 1: All right, stick around as we get ready to celebrate
45:48

47:54
Speaker 1: he's already joked around it's going to be one of
47:56
Speaker 1: his longest speeches in history. I think he's joking because
47:59
Speaker 1: it's going to be one hundred degrees and then everything
48:02
Speaker 1: caps off with fireworks. Joining me now to talk more
48:06

48:28
Speaker 1: the fireworks a year and a half ago. Now you're
48:31
Speaker 1: going to be belting him out as there is this
48:33
Speaker 1: thunderous roar of aircraft. I wish I could be by
48:36
Speaker 1: your side. Brother. We're going to be out in the
48:38
Speaker 1: ocean here in the Pacific in San Diego watching these fireworks,

48:51
Speaker 16: assortment of.
48:51
Speaker 9: Airpower on display.
48:53
Speaker 16: And just a few days ago, I was on stage
48:56
Speaker 16: with President Trump for the kickoff and somehow the logistics
49:01
Speaker 16: guys they managed to time the B two bomber flyovers
49:06
Speaker 16: to my high notes. I saw how they did it,
49:09
Speaker 16: but that was the may impressive. So now they're going
49:13
Speaker 16: to do it again. We're going to have some amazing
49:16
Speaker 16: flyovers for this show July fourth, on Saturday.
49:22
Speaker 9: It's going to be absolutely tremendous.
49:24
Speaker 16: And as you mentioned, the President has promised us the
49:27
Speaker 16: largest fireworks display in history.
49:31
Speaker 1: Christopher, you were talking about the President and the fireworks.
49:34
Speaker 1: I know that he has said the fireworks will be
49:37
Speaker 1: the biggest ever. I believe him. And he also just
49:40
Speaker 1: joked yesterday when he was out at the Teddy Roosevelt
49:42
Speaker 1: Museum that he was going to do the longest speech
49:44
Speaker 1: he's ever done. I do understand it's one hundred and
49:49
Speaker 1: two degrees there today, So I think he was joking.
49:52
Speaker 1: Have you talked to me about the speech?
49:55
Speaker 9: No, not about the speech.
49:56
Speaker 16: Last I spoke to him was last Thursday, and he
49:59
Speaker 16: was talking about the ballroom still just all the plans
50:04
Speaker 16: for it, and he's like, you're gonna.
50:05
Speaker 9: Be singing when we open this ballroom. I can't wait.
50:09
Speaker 16: So really beautiful stuff that he has in store for
50:12
Speaker 16: the country, both in the long term but in the
50:15
Speaker 16: near term. For the fourth of July, it's going to
50:18
Speaker 16: be absolutely spectacular. Only our president can put on a
50:23
Speaker 16: show of pageantry and patriotism in this way, and I'm
50:28
Speaker 16: just so honored and grateful to be a.
50:30
Speaker 1: Part of it. Are you wearing tails Saturday? Because that
50:33
Speaker 1: might be a little hot? I know you like to
50:35
Speaker 1: dress up. No in that actually, do you.
50:37
Speaker 9: Know it's funny. The team actually told me.
50:40
Speaker 16: They said, Chris, we know that you really love your
50:42
Speaker 16: tuxedos and your tails, but you know, just go red,
50:46
Speaker 16: white and blue this time around.
50:48
Speaker 9: So yeah, that's what I'm gonna do.
50:50
Speaker 1: You know. I mean, if we if we see some
50:52
Speaker 1: of the tenor's legs out there, you know, it might
50:54
Speaker 1: be a bit much. I'm not saying put shorts on.
50:57
Speaker 1: But it is going to be hot, Christopher, it's.
50:59
Speaker 9: Going to be My legs are, my legs are. Actually
51:02
Speaker 9: I've always been told not too bad.
51:04
Speaker 16: I just got back from Italy, so I've got a
51:08
Speaker 16: great tan going on.
51:09
Speaker 1: Good good for you, like a good.
51:11
Speaker 9: Italian guy, a Maufi coast tan, not bely.
51:15
Speaker 1: So don't rub it in, man, don't rub it in.
51:18
Speaker 1: You know, my wife's behind the camera in the control
51:20
Speaker 1: room and she wants to go to a multi coast,
51:22
Speaker 1: So don't rub it in. And So if Americans can't
51:25
Speaker 1: make it out to DC on Saturday, because not all
51:26
Speaker 1: of us can get there, you know, not all three
51:28
Speaker 1: hundred and thirty million people are going to d C,
51:31
Speaker 1: just kind of wrap it up for them on what
51:33
Speaker 1: they're going to see with this pomp and circumstances pageantry.
51:36
Speaker 1: I truly believe it's going to be like nothing we've
51:39
