0:36
a ton right now hitpiece after hitpiece
0:39
in the mainstream media and they're all
0:42
quoting Anonymous
0:45
sources well I've learned in my time in
0:49
this
0:50
business to not really put a lot of
0:52
stock into what Anonymous sources say
0:55
sure when journalists have integrity an
0:58
anonymous source is a Valu thing I've
1:01
had to use anonymous sources myself
1:04
people are in fear they for whatever
1:06
reason their career their wife their
1:09
husband whatever they can't talk on the
1:11
record but sometimes Anonymous sources
1:13
are used to smear
1:15
somebody
1:17
and sometimes they don't even exist I I
1:20
hate to say that but the point is a lot
1:23
of anonymous sources have come out
1:25
against Pete Heth well over two dozen on
1:29
the record sources have come out to
1:32
support him including the people at Fox
1:34
and Friends and I want you to listen to
1:36
this cuz it's important and then let me
1:39
know what you think in the comments on
1:41
the Pete H said thing I think people
1:43
getting way ahead of it they've just
1:44
been uh jumping all over him like they
1:46
were uh jumping all over some earlier uh
1:48
picks but evidently when his one-on-one
1:50
meetings he's been very impressive and
1:52
doesn't surprise I don't think anybody
1:54
that knows him here he knows his stuff
1:56
he's got the vision he fought in the
1:57
wars recruiting is already picking up uh
2:01
since he's actually uh been someone
2:02
who's been nominated coming forward
2:04
because they know they're going to
2:05
change the culture and make it more
2:07
Soldier friendly and the other thing
2:08
he's got I mean if you look at what he's
2:10
done in the background I think today is
2:12
going to be huge because Senator Roger
2:13
wicker has a new vision for the Pentagon
2:16
uh on procurement on spreading out our
2:17
military base growing it so we can
2:19
service our allies when people buy
2:22
weapon systems be able to get them while
2:23
at the same time U using spending wisely
2:26
while increasing spending he's got the
2:28
vision so when he sits down with Roger
2:30
wicker if he could walk out of that
2:31
meeting and impress him with the vision
2:33
and the ability to run a department that
2:35
big and give him an idea of who he put
2:37
underneath them that will go a long way
2:39
well there there's an effort to uh stop
2:42
this nomination before the hearings
2:44
because they know that's where he's
2:46
going to shine the most they knows that
2:48
he knows his stuff uh he's a Harvard guy
2:51
he's a Princeton guy he's been talking
2:53
about this stuff for years he wrote a
2:54
whole book about transforming the
2:57
military uh the way that we're doing
2:59
things and the wokeness and and by the
3:01
way there's reports coming out there
3:02
that we know for we've known them for
3:04
years that we know it's just not true
3:06
and the fact that they're going out
3:08
there with unnamed sources when we sit
3:11
on the couch with him almost every day I
3:14
think it's just years yeah for over 10
3:16
years it just to me that is the stunning
3:18
part especially when you don't reach out
3:20
to his co-host of the show for comment
3:24
to say hey what do you guys think about
3:26
no one has been contacted about that I
3:28
think that scream
3:30
that it's a witch we can't allow them to
3:32
Cav P because I feel like that's what
3:35
they're trying to do right now in in the
3:37
Wall Street Journal article it talks a
3:38
little bit about it sounds like Donald
3:40
Trump down at marago is actually
3:42
floating you know he's casually
3:44
suggested okay if if Pete doesn't work
3:46
out what about Ronda santz another name
3:49
apparently uh that
3:51
is apparently way down the list on Plan
3:54
B is el Eldridge Elbridge Colby
3:59
discussed by Trump allies also some have
4:02
suggested jod erns according to the Wall
4:04
Street Journal and they've got the
4:05
exclusive on this apparently a number of
4:07
the Republican senators are warning Pete
4:10
that you're going to face a grilling uh
4:12
during public confirmation hearings the
4:14
allegations sexual assault adultery
4:17
excessive alcohol use and financial
4:20
mismanagement according to the uh Wall
4:22
Street Journal there are apparently six
4:24
Republican Senators who are not
4:27
completely on board with him so that
4:29
would be a deal breaker and maybe that's
4:31
why they're looking at Plan B well I
4:32
think the the notion that a grilling is
4:34
somehow disqualifying the notion that
4:37
heat on Capitol Hill somehow exactly the
4:41
the roadblock to a nomination process to
4:43
me is is almost Blasphemous because
4:45
that's the entire thing that the
4:46
American people voted into office which
4:48
is no no no we will not succumb to the
4:51
left's Playbook we will not succumb to
4:53
cavab becoming a verb in that the left
4:56
likes to wield the media and a very
4:59
public Witch Hunt to thwart the
5:02
possibility for actual success and
5:04
that's the whole point I agree with you
5:06
that a commander-in-chief and a true
5:07
leader should always have backup plans
5:08
and should always ascertain and and
5:11
develop what structure looks like what
5:13
different strategy what different people
5:15
look like but the notion that Pete Heth
5:18
will back down now or will in any way
5:20
capitulate to The Witch Hunt being
5:21
wielded by the left by their tired
5:23
overused Playbook to me is absolutely
5:25
laughable I wish him nothing but success
5:28
and to your point to conform and to sort
5:32
of survive what exactly that process is
5:34
for let the Senators play out let them
5:36
conduct their analysis rightly so in
5:39
front of the public that's what it's
5:40
there for a lot of those Senators going
5:41
to be looking at him going yeah I got
5:43
divorced too sure my ex-wife would Grill
5:46
you know hates me or I hate her or the
5:48
kids their families are complicated uh
5:52
also you go fight for 20 years uh you
5:55
come back and you your first job is to
5:56
help other veterans that's admirable and
5:58
there's a lot of people like like Sean
6:00
Parnell who we know and others to work
6:02
for him go I got a push back on that I
6:04
was with him every step of the way
6:05
number two you can't hold this job down
6:07
you can't fill in for Laura Ingram Sean
6:09
Hannity uh work for eight hours every
6:11
Sunday fill in for all of us over the
6:14
course of 14 years there no show he
6:15
can't do you watch him on the Patriot
6:17
Awards this guy is and I will just say
6:20
this the way the the his detractors are
6:23
describing him it would be impossible to
6:25
think he'd still be surviving it's
6:26
unbelievable he isut I tell you phys
6:30
Pete is cut out of stone he is a rock
6:34
the guy eats healthier acts healthier
6:37
Works harder literally work on his Ranch
6:39
he does he has a lifestyle that reflects
6:42
his discipline a lot of people when you
6:44
go and do things that are controversial
6:46
you're going to get a lot of enemies I'm
6:47
not saying that he walks on water but
6:50
I'm saying that when he goes out in
6:51
front of you ask him real questions you
6:53
want to know uh what he did in business
6:55
what he did with this organization but
6:56
stay out of the marriages has nothing to
6:59
do with this and and to me you
7:02
especially if you're looking back
7:03
there's very few people Le unless those
7:05
people that we feature on the Saints
7:07
episodes on Fox besides them and with
7:10
Martin scorsi producing and talking
7:12
about my life after besides them there's
7:14
nobody questioning him and there's no
7:16
one who's ever going to sit there that
7:18
has had a perfect life but just ask
7:20
yourself at 40s something years old is
7:22
he the perfect person at the right time
7:24
to lead our military in the right
7:26
direction what it's what the people
7:27
wanted in this minute it was a disruptor
7:30
the second thing I would say is this
7:32
much like the mat Gates situation
7:34
careful what you wish for do you want
7:36
Ronda santis there you think Pete is
7:38
going to be a disruptor put Ronda STIs
7:41
there you're GNA even get even more of a
7:42
disruptor just like when you got Pam
7:44
Bondi so let the process play out um we
7:48
have got on our show an exclusive later
7:50
on in the 8:00 hour Penelope uh Heth is
7:55
Pete's mother is going to be on she
7:57
wanted to explain the skating email she
8:00

8:02
