| 0:00.0 | Such a shame that our military, once the greatest in the world, is now woke and weird. |
| 0:15.2 | And is it the greatest in the world anymore? That's unknowable at this point, and I'd rather not put it to the test. |
| 0:22.7 | We're in trouble, folks, woke and weird, possibly weak. Look, this latest development, which has been |
| 0:30.2 | around for a few months now, they snuck it in. You know about ejection seats? Fighter jets. |
| 0:35.9 | Some bomber jets have ejection seats. They're necessary. |
| 0:38.8 | You can get the pilot out of an emergency. It's a very violent sequence of events. |
| 0:43.5 | They put a rocket basically under its chair. And again, it can save the pilot's life or it can |
| 0:48.7 | sometimes kill a pilot. Listen to this. As the seat acceler accelerates upwards gravity pulls the pilot downwards |
| 0:57.6 | compressing the spine the speed at which the propulsive force is applied is critical |

| 1:31.7 | This can be quite violent. |
| 1:32.8 | I had a punch out of a Harrier once in the late 1990s. |
| 1:36.6 | But a seat can save your life. |
| 1:39.2 | It is like sitting on a rocket chip, all right? |
| 1:41.3 | That packback there, all kinds of very controlled explosives, |
| 1:45.3 | and you come out like a bullet. You know, we have women pilots, and I think that's great, |
| 1:50.6 | actually. I've served with women, and they're kind of like the guys. Some are great, some are okay, |
| 1:55.3 | some not so hot. But did you know that they're allowing pregnant women to fly in aircraft with ejection seats? |
