>> Bill: SOMETHING TO FOLLOW.
THANKS, BRYAN LLENAS IN NEW
YORK.
THANKS.
>> Dana: TWO REPUBLICAN
LAWMAKERS ISSUED A WARNING ABOUT
WOKE MILITARY INITIATIVES.
THE REPORT FROM SENATOR MARCO
RUBIO AND CONGRESSMAN CHIP ROY
ACCUSES THE PENTAGON OF
WEAKENING OUR ARMED FORCES BY
PUSHING LEFTIST IDEOLOGY ON RACE
AND GENDER.
THE PENTAGON DENIES TEACHING
CRITICAL RACE THEORY TO
RECRUITS.
TOM COTTON.
ONE OF THE THINGS FROM THE
REPORT SAYS THE BIDEN
ADMINISTRATION’S DIVISIVE
RHETORIC AND PROPAGANDA CONTINUE
TO BRING DOWN THE MILITARY’S
ALREADY LOW RECRUITMENT NUMBERS.
IT IS IRRESPONSIBLE AND VERY
DANGEROUS TO ALLOW THEM TO
CONTINUE.
DOES IT TRACK WITH WHAT YOU’VE
BEEN FOLLOWING?
>> IT DOES, DANA, NO QUESTION.
WE ESTABLISHED OUR OWN TIP LINE
LAST YEAR AND FLOODED WITH
HUNDREDS OF INSTANCES OF
INAPPROPRIATE TRAINING SESSIONS
OR OTHER KINDS OF COMMENTARY OR
MISPLACED PRIORITIES IN OUR
MILITARY.
I RAISED THIS WITH MILITARY
LEADERSHIP AND TRIED TO ADDRESS
IT AND I WRITE ABOUT IT IN MY
BOOK ONLY THE STRONG.
THE LIBERAL PROGRESSIVES HAVE AN
EFFORT TO NEUTER THE MILITARY
NOT JUST BY CUTTING THE BUDGET
BUT ENGAGING IN LEFT WING SOCIAL
ENGINEERING.
A LOT OF PROGRESSIVES SEEM TO
WORRY MORE ABOUT TRAINING SOCIAL
JUSTICE WARRIORS THAN WARRIORS
TRAINED TO KILL OR WHETHER DRILL
SERGEANTS ARE TEACHING THE RIGHT
PRONOUNS RATHER THAN TACTICS.
IT IS DANGEROUS FOR THEM TO PUT
THEM IN THE FIGHT UNPREPARED AND
DANGEROUS FOR OUR COUNTRY
BECAUSE WE RELY ON THESE YOUNG
MEN AND WOMEN TO KEEP US SAFE.
>> Dana: DO YOU THINK IT IS
HURTING RECRUITMENT?
>> I THINK THERE IS NO QUESTION
IT IS HURTING RECRUITMENT.
I HEARD IT FROM RECRUITERS NOT
JUST IN ARKANSAS BUT ACROSS THE
COUNTRY.
WHEN YOU HAVE A RECRUITING BASE
IN PARTICULAR THAT COMES FROM
RURAL AMERICA OR WORKING CLASS
AMERICA, WHETHER IT’S IN SOUTH
ARKANSAS OR SOUTH BOSTON AND SO
MUCH ATTENTION BEING PAID TO
THESE KIND OF LEFT WING SOCIAL
ENGINEERING FANTASIES IT IS
UNFORTUNATELY NOT SURPRISING
SOME YOUNG MEN AND WOMEN WANT TO
TAKE A PASS.
THEY JOINED THE ARMY TO LEARN
HOW TO KILL BAD GUYS NOT LEARN
HOW TO SPEAK LIKE THEY ARE IN A
FACULTY LOUNGE.
>> Dana: DEMOCRATS WOULD SAY AND
HAVE SAID THEY THINK THE FAR
GREATER CONCERN IS FAR RIGHT
EXTREMISM.
DO YOU THINK THAT WILL BE THEIR
RESPONSE TO THIS REPORT?
>> MAYBE THEIR RESPONSE WHICH IS
WRONG.
LAST YEAR THE SECRETARY OF
DEFENSE INSISTED UPON A
SO-CALLED SAFETY STAND DOWN TO
TALK ABOUT EXTREMISM AND THEN
THEY TRY TO FIND THE EXTREMISTS.
AFTER MILLIONS OF MAN-HOURS AND
A YEAR OF LOOKING WITH MORE THAN
2 MILLION UNIFORM PERSONNEL THEY
FOUND FEWER THAN 100 PEOPLE.
AND MANY OF THOSE WERE ORDINARY
CRIMINAL STREET GANGS.
OUR YOUNG PEOPLE ARE SOME OF THE
BEST WE HAVE IN THE MILITARY.
THEY ARE NOT EXTREMISTS.
>> Dana: I WANT TO ASK YOU ABOUT
THIS.
YOU FOLLOW FOREIGN POLICY.
YESTERDAY AT THE WORLD CUP THE
IRANIAN NATIONAL TEAM WHEN THEY
TOOK THE FIELD REFUSED TO SING
THE NATIONAL ANTHEM.
WE SHOW YOU THE VIDEO HERE.
THEY COULD VERY WELL PAY A PRICE
FOR THIS.
EVEN "THE NEW YORK TIMES"
WRITING.
THEY SIGNAL SUPPORT FOR
PROTESTS.
ANY THOUGHTS ON THIS?
>> GOOD FOR THE IRANIAN SOCCER
TEAM FOR STANDING IF SOLIDARITY
WITH HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS
PROBABLY MILLIONS OF IRANIANS
PROTESTING IN THE STREETS FOR
BASIC RIGHTS WHY THE AYATOLLAHS
ARE MACHINE-GUNNING WOMEN AND
CHILDREN TO DEATH.
I CALL ON PRESIDENT BIDEN TO
TAKE ACTION TO STOP THESE A TROT
TEASE IN IRAN.
IN PARTICULAR WALKING AWAY FROM
THE NUCLEAR DEAL WITH IRAN.
YOU SEE A REPEAT OF WHAT BARACK
OBAMA DID IN 2009 THE LAST TIME
THERE WAS A MAJOR UPRISING THIS
IRAN SUPPRESSING THEIR DREAMS TO
BE SAFER FOR AMERICA BUT INSTEAD
