[0:00] CONSTRUCTIONS THAT ARE
[0:14] ABLE TO TAKE AWAY PEOPLE'S
[0:16] HOMES.
[0:16] I DON'T THINK YOU WANT TO
[0:18] TAKE AWAY PEOPLE'S HOMES.
[0:20] I DON'T THINK YOU WANT
[0:21] DEMOCRATS SEIZING THE MEANS OF
[0:22] PRODUCTION.
[0:23] I DON'T THINK YOU WANT
[0:25] CRIMINALS THAT COMMIT RAPE AND
[0:28] MURDER THAT ARE HERE ILLEGALLY
[0:29] Well, of course, of course, Sean.
[0:33] And now the ones that difference between me and other Democrats, you know, we're a Democrat that's willing to call out these individuals and some of the absurd things that they have said and the kinds of beliefs they are, you know, the one thing that absolutely is in common, just contempt for Israel that essentially is becoming just rank anti-Semitism.
[0:58] The individual that just won in Colorado, she refused to describe the situation where someone firebombed a group of Jews that was just rallying for the Israeli hostages at that time and killed a woman.
[1:14] She refused to even address that.
[1:17] Is that anti-Semitic?
[1:19] So this is the point.
[1:22] And now there's that strong correlation.
[1:24] Anti-anti-Israel, drifting into anti-Semitism, very, very intensely anti-American.
[1:31] And now just here, that individual also believes America deserved 9-11.
[1:37] And, of course, Israel deserved the massacre of 10-7.
[1:42] That's been, you know, that's been building.
[1:45] You know, when I was on Jesse's show back in early May, I warned.
[1:49] I said the Democratic Party is, we're heading for an orgy of socialism.
[1:54] And now, look, and here we are for these things.
[1:57] So these very specific kinds of candidates, you know, these aren't my smears.
[2:02] These are using their own words and their own views and their tweets and the things that they've said and the way they've behaved.
[2:08] And then, of course, you have the king of the dirtbags of P. Hustle up in Maine, you know, roughing up ex-girlfriends and spend a decade on the social media called KICK.
[2:20] That's been described as the predator's paradise for why people are on that kind of platform.
[2:28] So, you know, as a Democrat, it's entirely appropriate to just call that out.
[2:33] You know, I'm always happy to be on your show.
[2:36] You're not going to see me criticize or go after.
[2:39] We have some great, great candidates like Ossoff, Brown, and you have Tallarico.
[2:44] He's a nice guy.
[2:45] No matter what, anybody would say a thing.
[2:48] And, of course, Roy Cooper in North Carolina.
[2:51] By the way, Senator.
[2:51] So, these are normal, these are normal Democrats.
[2:54] I don't know why we have other Democrats, you know, even people that,
[2:58] that are calling for their jobs in leadership, saying, you're next, you're next.
[3:03] Why can't you just push back and say, these are abhorrent beliefs, you know, communism, socialism, you know?
[3:10] And now, for me, what my real concern is the Democratic Party is going to put it become and put it into the platform, you know, is an anti-Israel party that Israel does not have the right to defend itself and to exist.
[3:26] And the second that becomes a formal part of our platform, and that's the one thing that would push me out of this party.
[3:34] Because, you know, I'm deeply alarmed the way the Democratic Party is going after Israel and allowing to just rank anti-Semitism to just to flourish, you know, in the left on the campuses as well, too.
[3:50] Look, Tallarico may be a nice guy.
[3:54] If you know what the six genders that he's referring to is, I really appreciate you educating us, because I don't know what they are.
[4:02] Or God being non-binary, I'm not sure what he meant there, either.
[4:07] He seems to...
[4:08] Yeah, yeah, Sean, I don't agree with all those views, either.
[4:11] You know, again, I'm not saying what I'm saying.
[4:14] I mean, I think we can all agree.
[4:16] Paxton, Paxton is kind of little, he has a little platinum energy, you know, too, you know, as well, too.
[4:23] You know, I work with John Corrin.
[4:24] He is a rock-ribbed conservative.
[4:28] You know, he has actual respect across the aisle.
[4:31] So now Texas picked, you know, Paxton.
[4:35] But for me...
[4:36] Let me ask you the big question.
[4:38] The big question to me is the leaders of your party, the Chuck Schumers, the Hakeem Jeffries,
[4:46] why are they so fearful to speak out and take on these radical views that the Democratic Party never supported before?
[4:57] I can't believe that hard-working, blue-collar Democrats and Republicans in Pennsylvania support any of this madness.
[5:06] I don't believe that for a second.
[5:10] What I'm saying is, like, as a Democrat, you know, like, I will absolutely call this out who they are, you know?
[5:17] Like, I would never pretend to say anything good about any of this new crop of people that are coming into Congress.
[5:25] So I refuse to do that.
[5:27] Why can't you just say that?
[5:29] You know, every time you tell voters to say, oh, it's okay, you know, no problem here, no problem here, no problem here.
[5:35] People, people know they have eyes, they have ears.
[5:38] They're appalled by it, too, across, you know, people.
[5:41] You know, then you lose your credibility.
[5:43] So that's the way every Democrat should.
[5:47] You know, we should police our own ranks right now and say, look, you know, this is not a big tent kind of situation.
[5:54] These are people that have intensely extreme anti-American kinds of views.
[6:02] And now you've seen the new polls.
[6:04] You know, 45% of Democrats are only proud to be American.
[6:09] You know, I think, you know.
[6:10] It's actually less than that.
[6:11] I know.
[6:11] That's sad.
[6:12] I have to let you go.
[6:14] But I will say this.
[6:17] You are the only voice of reason in your party right now that I see.
[6:27] You really are.
[6:28] Well, I'm saying it's like if less than 45% of Democrats are even proud to be an American,
[6:36] and I'm insanely, I'm insanely proud and grateful to be an American.
[6:40] You know, if you're, if the numbers are that low, you know, that's why they are nominating people
[6:46] that are an avowed communist and have deeply anti-views.
[6:50] So for me, that's distressing to me as a Democrat.
[6:54] Senator, I got to roll.
[6:56] We appreciate you being with us.
[6:57] Senator John Fetterman, the one.
