JACKIE: THAT IS A GOOD QUESTION.
KELLY O’GRADY, THANK YOU VERY
MUCH FOR THAT.
MORE RULES FOR THEE, NOT FOR ME.
THIS WEEK CALIFORNIA GOVERNOR
GAVIN NEWSOM ON A VACATION IN
MONTANA DESPITE HIS STATE’S BAN
ON OFFICIAL TRAVEL THERE.
MONTANA IS ON A LIST OF 22
STATES THAT CALIFORNIA STATE
WORKERS MAY NOT VISIT ON THE
TAXPAYER’S DIME.
THE BAN IS MORE HYPOCRITICAL
WITH NEWSOM ISSUING THIS MESSAGE
TO FLORIDIANS, LISTEN TO THIS,
TAKING A STAB AT THE STATE’S
REPUBLICAN GOVERNOR, RON
DESANTIS.
>> FREEDOM, IT IS UNDER ATTACK
IN YOUR STATE.
YOUR REPUBLICAN LEADERS ARE
BANNING BOOKS, MAKING IT HARDER
TO VOTE, RESTRICTING SPEECH IN
CLASSROOMS, EVEN CRIMINALIZING
WOMEN AND DOCTORS.
I URGE ALL OF YOU LIVING IN
FLORIDA TO JOIN THE FIGHT OR
JOIN US IN CALIFORNIA WHERE WE
STILL BELIEVE IN FREEDOM.
>> JOINING US NOW, FOX NEWS
CONTRIBUTOR CHARLIE HURT.
WE’LL GET TO THE MONTANA ISSUE
IN JUST ONE MOMENT BUT LET’S
RESPOND TO THAT.
HE IS GOING AFTER RON DESANTIS.
WHEN RON DESANTIS HAS ONE OF THE
STATES PEOPLE ARE FLOCKING TO,
THEY CONTINUE TO FLOCK THERE.
CALIFORNIA’S COMPLETELY
MISMANAGED.
YOU MAKE SOME SENSE OF THIS,
SIR.
>> [LAUGHTER].
NO, THERE IS NO SENSE TO BE MADE
OF THIS, NOT ONLY ARE PEOPLE
FLEEING CALIFORNIA UNDER GAVIN
NEWSOM, YOU HAVE THIS AMAZING
NEW PHENOMENON WHERE YOU
ACTUALLY HAVE PEOPLE FLEEING
CALIFORNIA TO GO TO MEXICO WHICH
IS, MAYBE THERE IS SOME SOLUTION
THERE TO THE ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION
PROBLEM.
WE COULD PUT GAVIN NEWSOM IN
CHARGE OF EVERYTHING AND ILLEGAL
IMMIGRATION WOULD COMPLETELY
FLIP AROUND AND WE WOULD NEED TO
BUILD A WALL TO KEEP PEOPLE FROM
GOING INTO MEXICO.
NO, IT’S ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS.
IF GAVIN NEWSOM THINKS HE CAN
RUN FOR PRESIDENT AGAINST RON
DESANTIS OR ANYBODY ELSE, THE
DRUG PROBLEM IN CALIFORNIA IS A
LOT WORSE THAN WE THINK BECAUSE
HE IS SMOKING SOMETHING.
JACKIE: HE HAS GOT ONE THING
GOING FOR HIM, CHARLIE.
HE IS A GOOD-LOOKING GUY, OKAY?
YOU LOOK AT HIM IN THE AD, HE
IS --
>> I TAKE YOUR WORD FOR IT.
JACKIE: HE IS STATUESQUE, HE HAS
THAT GOING FOR HIM.
I THINK HE SHOULD FOCUS ON
BUSINESSES FLEEING SILICON
VALLEY COMPANIES FLEEING, GOING
TO TEXAS, GOING TO FLORIDA,
WANTING TO RE-ESTABLISH
THEMSELVES IN STATES MORE
BUSINESS-FRIENDLY.
THAT IS ANOTHER ISSUE BUT I WANT
TO GET BACK TO THE MONTANA
VACATION.
HE IS TRAVELING THERE ON HIS OWN
DIME AND HE ISSUED THIS
STATEMENT ASKED ABOUT IT AFTER
THIS BAN WAS IMPOSED TRAVELING
TO MONTANA AND A BUNCH OF OTHER
PLACES, THE STATEMENT FROM THE
GOVERNOR’S OFFICE READ THIS, THE
TRAVEL BAN APPLIES TO EXPENDING
STATE FUNDS.
THE GOVERNOR’S TRAVEL IS NOT
PAID FOR BY THE STATE.
CONNECTING THE TWO IS
IRRESPONSIBLE AND FALSELY
IMPLIES THERE IS SOMETHING,
EXCUSE ME, UNTOWARD.
BASICALLY WHAT HANDS HERE, THE
BAN WAS IN PLACE AS A RESULT OF
THE LGBTQ LAWS IN THOSE STATES.
HE IS SAYING I’M NOT USING STATE
FUNDS TO GO TO MONTANA.
I WANT TO GO TO MONTANA ON
VACATION THAT MAKES IT OKAY.
DO YOU SEE THE HYPOCRISY HERE OR
AM I MISSING SOMETHING?
>> NO, THERE IS ABSOLUTE
HYPOCRISY HERE.
I WOULD ARGUE SOMETHING EVEN
WORSE T GOES BACK TO EXACTLY THE
POINT YOU WERE JUST MAKING ABOUT
THE MISMANAGEMENT OF THE STATE.
YOU KNOW WHAT HE IS BASICALLY
SAYING WHEN HE SAYS THAT NO, IT
IS OKAY FOR ME TO GO AS A FAMILY
BUT IT IS NOT OKAY FOR THE STATE
TO SPEND MONEY TO SEND EMPLOYEES
THERE, WHAT HE IS BASICALLY
SAYING, HE IS GOVERNING BY
VIRTUE SIGNALING.
IT IS PERFECTLY OKAY TO DISMISS
VIRTUE SIGNALING AS A PERSON BUT
AS A STATE THEY HAVE TO VIRTUE
SIGNAL AND PUNISH MON NAN AT --
MONTANA, BELIEVE ME, PERHAPS
AFTER CALIFORNIA, THEY’RE
PROBABLY COMPETING TWO OF THE
MOST SPECTACULAR STATES IN THE
UNION IN TERMS OF BEAUTY, PLACES
I WOULD LIKE TO GO SPEND TIME
UNDER NORMAL CIRCUMSTANCES BUT,
BUT FOR HIM, THE IDEA THAT ALL
OF THIS IS ABOUT SORT OF
EXPRESSING A POLITICAL OPINION
IN TERMS OF WHERE YOU GO AND
SPEND YOUR TIME OR WHERE YOU GO
ON VACATION, THAT SEEMS TO HAVE,
THERE IS NOTHING SERIOUS ABOUT
IT.
THERE IS NOTHING, HE IS DOING
NOTHING TO HELP THE PEOPLE OF
MONTANA.
HE IS DOING NOTHING TO HELP THE
PEOPLE HE CLAIMS TO BE HELPING
AND HE IS DOING NOTHING TO HELP
THE PEOPLE OF CALIFORNIA BUT
THAT IS HOW THESE PEOPLE GOVERN
AND IT’S WHY YOU WIND UP WITH
THE CATASTROPHE THAT WE HAVE IN
SO MANY PLACES IN A PLACE LIKE
CALIFORNIA.
JACKIE: HE HAS A HUGE CRIME
PROBLEM IN HIS STATE.
WE’LL BE TALKING ABOUT THAT A
LITTLE BIT LATER.
>> EXACTLY.
JACKIE: ALL OF THESE CALLS FOR
RECALL OF SOME LIBERAL D.A.s
ALLOW PEOPLE TO WALK ON THE
STREET REALLY WITH NO
CONSEQUENCE TO THE CRIMES THAT
THEY COMMIT.
HE SHOULD BE THINKING ABOUT THAT
AS WELL AND HIS CONSTITUENTS
