YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Gene Simmons just took a moment during a hearing to explain why he says the phrase "God Bless America" with pride.

"People think I say it for a sound bite. I'm the, I'm the proud son of a concentration camp survivor. And, for me, those words mean something, and we should all get over the cornball art ... and realize where we're living," Simmons said.
