today china's communist leader stood up
in public and stated in the clearest
possible terms he will not let americans
get in the way of their plans for world
domination
anyone who tries to you know
he's going to say this will tries to
challenge china will
find their heads bash bloody against a
great wall of steel
so how's our woke military responding to
this
well today we learned some soldiers are
being encouraged to attend diversity
events
in honor of pride month some members of
the navy
were required to go on a hike in support
of the lgbtq
community and there was a dress code
colorful clothing
nothing wrong with that just not sure
that's a priority
i know joe biden isn't known for his
grit but
is this really our focus here now
co-host of fox and friends weekend pete
heggseth and former secretary of state
and fox news contributor
mike pompeo all right secretary pompeo
china
rattling their sabers over here i don't
like it
what are your thoughts
jesse they see american weakness and
they they begin to act out in this way
we've seen this now
for uh six months with this
administration unprepared to
respond to chinese aggression chinese
threats even with so much as
a set of clear understandings about how
america is
going to respond remember this
administration that doesn't even want to
know where the wuhan virus came from
hasn't done a thing to penalize the
chinese communist party for its
activities in hong kong and
in western china that the chinese can
see weakness
they can see a administration that's not
prepared to respond in the way the trump
administration did with
clarity and force and resolve this is
what it's going to take to deter xi
xingping you saw his words today i've
had a chance to read a translation of
his remarks
he is serious he is competent he is
aggressive he thinks america is declined
he's wrong about that but it's going to
take american leadership to prove him
wrong
all right pete what's your assessment of
the u.s military's posture
when you hear about lowering the
standards and
diversity training and hiking in
colorful clothing
did you ever used to go hiking in
colorful clothing
to celebrate other people no uh as as
did the secretary
uh in the uh in the infantry in the army
a lot of hiking with 75 pounds on my
back
but usually we were intended to not be
seen in camouflage not bright colorful
colors
is usually the standard i will say this
uh xi ji ping said out loud
what their ambitions have been for
decades
now it's been quiet they've been using
other cultural
media advantages economic advantages to
try to gain
a place where they're at levity with the
united states some people there have
called it uh
unrestricted warfare and what they're
seeing now is
china is conducting unrestricted warfare
whether it's a virus
whether it's their economy whether it's
their culture whether it's the media to
try to undermine america
and our military is conducting
unrestricted welfare
i mean it's a joke it's a joke what's
being done
uh with with the example you told the
air force today says we're getting rid
of our pt
standards it's just too rigorous that
you would have to run one and a half
miles that's just too much i mean
how dare we ask that of young men and
women serving their country
it we our elites in washington
especially right now
after the trump administration uh don't
live in history they think america will
be predominant in perpetuity
and they don't recognize that whether
it's the chinese of the russians and the
secretary knows this
they have the ambition to want to be
globally dominant they can't be right
now but they're looking for every
opportunity
and when they see what the silly stuff
we're doing this they just lick their
chops
they just lick them secretary are you
seeing anything out of the biden
administration that says that they're
going to hold the chinese communists
accountable
for the lab leak are they going to do
anything
that actually has teeth because right
now i'm hearing a lot of let's go back
to how things used to be
which is let them steal our technology
and let our corporations
do whatever they want over there and
then sell the cheap goods back here at a
huge profit
jesse sadly i haven't seen any evidence
of reelection i think i think pete
nailed it when he talked about
the fact that they can see this too they
can see if our military's not focused on
the one thing the military's supposed to
do right
be prepared to defend america they can
see if a president is going to allow
folks to run across their southern
border surely they're not going to stop
the chinese from running across
a taiwanese border these are the kind of
things the world perceives they're
watching so closely everything this
administration does
and and i've not yet seen the actions
that would demonstrate resolve
demonstrate american resolve in the way
that can prevent this
this effort that pete nailed the chinese
communist party wants a singular thing
they want global hegemony he
we should believe what xi xingping says
he's been at this for a while
and while they used to hide their
strength and bide their time they're now
getting aggressive it's going to require
an american response
that matches that real quick pete
because we do have to run i'm hearing
about this new push-up
situation you don't actually have to go
all the way down you can maybe put your
arms out
and then you don't actually have to run
a mile in half you can do a shuttle run
or you might be able to walk was that
how it was when you were there and when
you think the chinese see that
you think what do you think goes through
their mind
well you always had people jesse who
tried to sham on the pt
test right they got an injury i can't
run i can't do that that's always a
reality and the secretary knows that
it's there but when the standard gets
lowered for everybody
take your pick you can do a plank or
push-ups
you can do sit-ups or leg lifts you can
do a shuttle run
or a one point a 1.5 mile
run if you can't do that you shouldn't
be
in the military it's not what is it
ableism
is ableism if these are the standards
i could get into the military i mean and
that's and you know what
i'm better serving this country by being
on tv
gentlemen thank you you don't take
orders well jesse thank you guys very
much
happy fourth jesse happy fourth beat to
the both yes happy independence day
