| 0:00.0 | We're joined here on Trigger today by a special guest, a candidate for the GOP nomination for Georgia's 10th Congressional District, Matt Richards. Thanks so much for joining us, Matt. Hey, thanks for having me. It's a pleasure to be here today. Yeah, so before we jump into other stuff, obviously there's a lot of big news going on. I wanted to bring up the way that we came across you a few weeks ago, and that was your official mask mandate statement video. |
| 0:22.0 | We played that for our triggered listeners when you released it. Tell us why the fight |
| 0:26.5 | against these sorts of unconstitutional big government actions are so important because we |
| 0:31.2 | couldn't agree more. Obviously, we took the time to talk about it on the show. So tell us why |
| 0:34.6 | you feel like that. So, I mean, it comes down to the simple fact that we're |
| 0:38.7 | we're a country of a constitution. And the federal government has no right to tell us to wear a mask, |
| 0:45.8 | not to wear a mask, if you have to have a vaccine or not have a vaccine. And being who I am, |
| 0:51.2 | I don't agree with anything they have to do when they try to force us to do anything. Yeah, totally agree. And you know, you see it in New York with these ridiculous vaccine passports. It's just, it's only amplifying. And it's crazy because they use the bait and switch of, oh, well, you know, get vaccinated. Everything will go back to normal. And now they're like, oh, no, no, no, we're going to hold on to that power. |
| 1:12.1 | This is all you need to get by. Yeah. It's really all that's up for the curve. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, right. Exactly. So the huge story going on right now is obviously Afghanistan. And yesterday I saw you put out a statement calling for a full congressional investigation into Joe Biden's disastrous |
| 1:28.5 | handling of this for his gross negligence and competence and mismanagement. And we couldn't agree |
| 1:34.3 | more. But I just wanted to see, you know, who you think should testify to account for their |
| 1:38.4 | absolute failures because, I mean, this is turning into an unreal situation. I mean, honestly, I would love to see Biden testify. |
| 1:46.5 | Let's find out what's really going on with the president with this. |
| 1:51.7 | There's no leadership. |
| 1:53.5 | You know, we went from having the greatest president in our history of President Trump |
| 1:56.7 | to quite frankly a joke leading this country. |
| 2:00.7 | And yeah, we need to hold them accountable, |
| 2:03.8 | and we need to find out the truth. |
| 2:05.8 | Yep, totally agree. |
| 2:07.1 | And what do you make of their, you know, |
| 2:09.8 | ridiculous line that they've been parroting that, |
| 2:13.0 | oh, well, this is just Trump's plan, |
