the media has zero interest in not one not two not three but four vets who actually serve with Tim Walls coming forward to say he's a coward and he abandoned them at their greatest moment of need zero coverage from New York Times and CNN and Washington Post but this scuffle over whether Trump inappropriately took pictures at a place Joe Biden's already taken pictures and released them as campaign efforts that's dominated the news media now for eight days what do you make of it and not a single reporter has decided to dig in mainstream reporter dig in and see if Joe Biden had used that same area as you pointed out to do some sort of political statements or pictures it's really outrageous what's happening to our media in Washington DC look I watched your uh interview yesterday with the four vets I don't know of anyone else who has spent the time to find people who served with Tim Waltz because I do think that it's important that we speak to people that served with him I know his brother is now endorsing Donald Trump uh but but people who know him the best who served in those incredible moments where you uh sign up to serve your country and and I should be clear I I didn't serve in the military I have incredible respect for people that do but what I think is really terrible and my friends who have served in the military are really really outraged about is to pretend that you had this Valor moment when you actually didn't when you actually Were In the Heat of the Moment you fell back and this is uh something that's real to me when I became US ambassador to Germany uh you know I didn't have military experience and I felt like my chief of staff should be somebody who really understands the military even more than me so I asked this first lieutenant in the Army who I knew if he would come to Berlin and be the chief of staff at the embassy and Megan he told me it was a dream job he would love to do it but he was literally on his way to Syria he's still in the United States about to deploy to Syria and he said I have you know six eight 12 men that I've trained and I really owe it to them to bring them home alive I told their families that I'd bring them home alive so I need to go I need to finish this Duty and then when I come back if the job is still open I I'd love it and I remember telling him wow um the job will still be open because you're the exact person that I would love to have in this job so we just held it open he went to Syria and then when he came back uh he became the chief of staff those are the moments those are the people that in that pressure time when you have to decide are you going to step up and are you going to give of yourself and sacrifice uh those are the people that you really want around you and I think Tim Waltz and what he's done in that moment where he cracked and he went back but then instead of just going and going away quietly realizing you didn't have it you pretend like you did and you you have this moment of Valor talking about using weapons of war to make a policy point on guns I mean I find the whole thing to just be unbelievable and the fact that the media isn't digging in and talking to these people who know him best and questioning him and he's not being transparent the campaign's not being transparent I find the whole thing to be uh just typical swampy Washington DC we got to move away from this it is amazing to me that this media has the nerve not only to ignore these guys right but then they take this controver y over what's happening at Arlington and try to blow it into a week a week plus story without pointing out the fact that Trump is allegedly in trouble here because he accepted the request the invitation of the gold star families to honor the Fallen their fallen loved ones who she not only didn't go and again the Goldstar family say she was invited the White House Now denying that we'll get to the bottom of it but she not only didn't go she's part of the administration that sent them to begin with and where's the media right up about that about I was the last person in the room and the withdrawal was a success and praising exactly how it was done after it was done and never meeting with the families none of that right that no one's talking about the fact that she has made zero time for these grieving gold star families Trump repeatedly has met with them but the media's only too happy Rick to run with oh but he took some pictures therefore he's evil yeah look what's happening in Washington DC is truly pathetic I mean I know world leaders who would die to have the Press Corps in Washington that Joe Biden and the Democrats get that kamla Harris is receiving right now there are people around the world that realize the Washington DC mainstream media and you you could list them right it's it's NBC it's AP it's CNN New York Times uh Washington Post it's all of them who just constantly defend uh whatever the Democrats do and and I really the the key to this whole thing is that you have these young reporters who go to Washington DC and it's a big fun city now it's no longer the Jeffersonian place where you go for a small short amount of time and then you leave to go live under the rules you created now we've got huge budgets we've got lobbyists we've got reporters they all go to church together they all go to school together they're never going to uh write stories that create a smaller less powerful Washington DC with a smaller budget they're never going to do that they want Washington DC to be bigger Better Batter meaner because it's their city and that's the problem is the rest of us who live outside of Washington we have to stop asking for those people people inside Washington to reform themselves I've said this before but it would be a kin of like coming to Los Angeles and saying I've got a great idea let's get rid of movies and everybody says kill them they we don't want them here and so we need to start sending people to Washington that are not of Washington whose social life is not in Washington I'll tell you one great example of a senator who already lives that is Ron Johnson he gets out of Washington as fast as he can and and he literally his whole life is back in Wisconsin and I love that I think we need more people like that yeah at least you have a shot of staying normal it's it's a shot um I do want to give you here's uh Christy shamblin she's the Mother-in-law of Marine Corps Sergeant Nicole G who served and was killed at abig gate and Christie actually spoke at the Republican National Convention so she may look familiar or be familiar to our audience but she went went on CNN and here's what she said about the invitation um we invited um both president Trump and uh the Biden Harris Administration and we didn't hear back from the the White House um we were happy to welcome president Trump to lay wreaths with all three of our families and our wounded some of our wounded from that day um and when he came to section 60 it was at our request okay so there you have it now NBC news reports that the White House denies that they were invited NBC News does not quote Christy shamblin and say we heard it specifically on the record from a gold star mom that the invitation was extended nor does it appear they did the leg work to figure out who to whom did she send the invitation they just report it they just like they just go with it oh no they weren't no are you surprised it's NC not the least it's just disgusting it's so disrespectful and The Thing Rick that's really pissing me off is that I know that the media sucks I know but like this is very disrespectful to the gold star families and and while they're doing it they're cloaking themselves in this you know we're the ones who care about the gold star family's mantle right like we care about treating the families with respect meanwhile neither She nor her boss have done that for four years the watch she didn't show up and by the way speaking of NBC look what they said look what they tried to claim KLA Harris was at the dignified transfer when the 13 service Personnel came back look at this you know who the families also invited Joe Biden and KLA Harris where were they Joe Biden was sitting at a beach KLA Harris was sitting at her mansion in Washington DC she was 4 miles away 10 minutes she could have gone to the cemetery and and honored the sacrifice of those young men and women but she hasn't she never has spoken to them or taken a meeting with them because they did meet with them during the with them at the digifi trans her Christen uh Welker lying NBC had to later issue paper statement saying that wasn't true Harris didn't show I mean look this is the problem I've been calling out all of NBC and calling them Comcast media I think people need to realize that Comcast is funding this and this is a Comcast media outlet they don't check whatever some young staffer at the house tells an MSNBC or an NBC reporter who's also 26 years old uh whatever they say they just regurgitate and put on Twitter there's no checking there's no journalism there's no uh skepticism when it comes to what Democrats tell NBC or MSNBC it's outrageous and again we have to start not only calling it out but we have to demand better we have to demand better from places like Comcast they don't get to Gaslight us and then ask us to uh buy their services I I find it to be really offensive and somebody needs to hold them to account they push misinformation disinformation propaganda whatever
