He's so thoughtful, isn't he? That's President Trump. Did you catch our interview with him on Thursday?

He was on for a whole half an hour. We blew through the brakes because we had so much to talk to with my former boss.

If you missed it, why? Where were you on Thursday? Don't worry. You can find it everywhere on Rumble, on our Spotify podcast, on my social media accounts.

Twitter, truth, social, you name it. We are there. We are on Instagram, Facebook. You will find the interview with the President there as well.

I hope you had a blessed memorial day weekend. We salute our troops, our veterans here on America first, and we are delighted to have with us a perfect guest to discuss.

Matt is geopolitical, Matt is military. He is a regular guest with us here on America first, but now we have him one on one. He has served this nation in two different arms of service.

They'll explain how that happened. Rose to the heights of the Pentagon, responsible for readiness of all our military.

And then to the cabinet level inside the Trump administration. He's former veterans affairs secretary, Robert Wilkie, now newsmax senior national security correspondent. Welcome in studio for one on one.

Thank you. Thank you for having me and thank you for mentioning memorial day. We tend to get that confused with veterans.

This day honors the one million Americans who have given their lives since the first shots were fired at Lexington in April of 1775. That's one million out of the 41 million who have served since the revolution.

It is an incredibly important day. It was given to us by President Lincoln. And it is one that all Americans a day that they should stop and pause and give thanks.

I'd like to use this opportunity because usually we have to dive in. We only have two segments with you. There's a war going on in Europe. We have to talk about what's happening everywhere else in the world.

Now we have a little bit more luxury, a little bit of luxury of time. Would you share with us your fascinating backstory? How you ended up serving in two different arms of the armed services? Who your father was?

And also I think one of the connections between us where you spent some of your creative years as a child.

Well, I'm very proud to be the son of a very highly decorated combat soldier.

My father was a senior officer in the 82nd Airborne Division. But prior to that in my high school years, he was terribly wounded in the invasion of Cambodia.

A huge man for his day, 6'2", 240. Today that's not even a quarterback. But in the 1970, that's a big man. He was shot to pieces in Cambodia.

He spent a year in an army hospital and when we saw him again, he weighed 125 pounds. The good graces of the great-crate neighborhoods overruled the medical discharge board.

So no, we're going to send this officer to England.
