thank you thank you representing Sweeny you know when I first got elected in 2012 and I went to Congress from Kentucky there was a lot of bad media on me and so my mom was worried for me and she said are you making any friends up there and I said Mom they got a 9% approval rating you don't want me to make friends with these guys
do you I said I'll make friends with the 9% sent you approve of and one of the friends my best friend in Washington DC that I found because he was elected the same year as me in 2012 was Ronda santis and I was just stared for somebody who had a brain to talk to in Washington DC right but here was a guy who was completely principled
and even when we disagreed we knew how each other would stand on the issue because all of our votes came from principles and we hung out together a lot so so I was a little bit offended when he got elected to Governor you know I'm still stuck in the US House of Representatives and I texted him and I emailed him and he ghosted me I got
no response well what I didn't realize is because of the sunshine laws there they can collect your private texts and emails and stuff so he got rid of email and text so 6 months later he calls me up and I'm like oh you're too big for me now I'm a big Governor but um he would call me up occasionally and tell me his plans and what
he was doing and every plan that he explained to me worked out like instead of Rage tweeting about stuff that you know like when they mistreated conservatives on Facebook has anybody been in Facebook jail here all right if you're not if you haven't been to Facebook jail you're not trying anyways when they were putting fa people in Facebook jail Governor Ronda sandis called me he says
I think I got an idea now it's a private company and they private entity and I don't want to you know get involved in uh infringing on anything but Facebook's on all our government computers I'm going to kick them off of every government computer in the State of Florida and he did and that I was like wow that's a good idea and by the way I
think their productivity went up in Florida too in the government when he did that um but my big litmus test when I decide to vote for a candidate I don't care if it's dog catcher or if it's Senator US senator my litmus test used to be the Second Amendment I would listen real hard when somebody said do you support the Second Amendment and if a candidate
says oh I love duck hunting and I am not voting for you you do not if you do not understand what the second amendment is about if you think it's about duck hunting then you don't understand any of the Constitution most likely and that was my litmus test for a long time but I've got a new litus test when Co happened and everybody was losing their
minds I I got uh a phone call that says stay home Congress is going to spend $2 trillion by unanimous consent and nobody needs to be here and I said this is wrong that's not even constitutional so it's 8 hours from Kentucky to DC I got my car at midnight and I drove and I got there before they could open the floor the House of Representatives
at 9:00 a.m. and I said I object you're trying to spend 2 trillion with nobody here you're going to cause massive inflation you're you're paying everybody to shut the economy down you're going to cause shortages there's going to be bad Health Care outcomes worse than anything that you will say this is the stupidest worst bill in the history of our country well not too many people
agreed with me and definitely nobody in Washington DC and they were ticked off they had to fly back to Washington DC and do their jobs but I said if truckers are going to work and farmers are going to work and if you're having that guy bag your groceries at the grocery store and bring them out to your car then by go you get to work so
that was you're clapping but guess who wasn't Nancy Pelosi called me a dangerous nuisance on MSNBC I think we need more dangerous nuisances to Nancy Pelosi don't you I've got a lawsuit against Nancy Pelosi at the Supreme Court now called Massie V Pelosi because of her mask mandate in Congress I'm still fighting that but the cares Act was one of the biggest mistakes in history and
nobody was supporting me really I was the only person in Congress who would stand up but I got a phone call from that guy who never answers my text and never answers my emails Governor Ronda santis called me a few weeks later when the world was still hating me and he said I see everybody's mad at you he said they're all going to be mad at
me too he said because even though public opinion even a lot of Republicans like these shutdowns and the stimulus money cuz there's $1,200 checks by the way that was the cheese in the Trap um and we got inflation that's more than offset that check but he called me up and he said you know what I know people are going to be mad at me I know
the president's going to be mad at me I know I'm going to get no good media over this but I'm keeping the State of Florida open and I'm making sure our kids get to go to school and he said because in in two years people will see that you and I are doing the right thing and I thought oh my goodness this is a politician that
can think two years from today instead of two days from today when the next new cycle is by the way where were the other candidates who were running for president well one one of them called me up he was the president at the time he was mad at me when I opposed the car's act I was on the floor of the House of Representatives getting ready
to demand the recorded vote and called me three times I let it go to voicemail three times then somebody tapped me on the shoulder you need to call President Trump back so I went out to call him back right when I was opposing the cares act and he said I'm coming at you like you've never seen never in your life before have you seen the way
in which I will come at you I'm more popular than you in Kentucky and you know it I'm back in your primary opponent and you're going to lose all because all I wanted was a recorded vote on the worst bill in history that he was supporting by the way that Bill had $400 million to fund absentee elections basically signing I don't think he read it he
signed his own demise when he signed that bill and he came after me for having the audacity just to say we should show up for work and go on record and vote on this thing in person now by the way I went on to get 81% of the vote in my primary 6 weeks later so but where were the other candidates who are running for president
okay you had one candidate who was supporting all the bad policy and you had another candidate I'm not going to name names who was trying to make money off of this selling data and collecting information on on people and pharmaceuticals I'm not for that candidate that's for sure and so you had candidates all in this election who were either awall or trying to make money off
of it or doing the wrong thing except for Ronda sandz he did the right thing just like he always does and that's why I'm supporting him 100% for president I give you Governor Ronda Sanchez
