1 00:00:10,520 --> 00:00:15,520 Speaker 1: By from the Liberty University Studio in Memphis, Tennessee. It's 2 00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:17,960 Speaker 1: America's conservative blowtorch. 3 00:00:18,400 --> 00:00:27,120 Speaker 2: That's that's what this American Todd starts. 4 00:00:27,360 --> 00:00:31,639 Speaker 3: Well, ye, and hello everybody. Welcome to the Todd Stearns 5 00:00:31,880 --> 00:00:34,920 Speaker 3: Radio Show. Great to have you with us. I am 6 00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:40,040 Speaker 3: your host. That would be Todd Stearns, America's anchorman. What 7 00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:44,559 Speaker 3: an honor to be with you today. We have a 8 00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:47,919 Speaker 3: lot to discuss. There was a lot of news that 9 00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:52,240 Speaker 3: happened over the weekend. President Trump speaking in North Carolina, 10 00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:58,840 Speaker 3: jd Vance speaking at Amfest and then anfest in general 11 00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:02,960 Speaker 3: where it really turned into a free for all, and 12 00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:06,679 Speaker 3: many of you either attended. I think over what thirty 13 00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:11,240 Speaker 3: one thousand people they said were there, and there was 14 00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:15,720 Speaker 3: a lot of excitement, a lot of enthusiasm, and I'm 15 00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:19,160 Speaker 3: curious to hear your thoughts on how things turned out. 16 00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:22,280 Speaker 3: There's been a lot of controversy though over the so 17 00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:27,960 Speaker 3: called social media influencers, and I'm just I'm curious to 18 00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:33,240 Speaker 3: hear from you today over who you I wouldn't say 19 00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:35,559 Speaker 3: look up to, but who do you listen to within 20 00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:39,240 Speaker 3: the conservative movement, within the conservative world. Many of you 21 00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:43,319 Speaker 3: listen to this program and you get my perspective, my 22 00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:49,280 Speaker 3: point of view, but there is this upper echelon and 23 00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:53,840 Speaker 3: they have sort of self anointed them themselves as the 24 00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:58,280 Speaker 3: leaders of this new conservative movement, and that would be 25 00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:03,440 Speaker 3: people like Tucker Carl's and Candace Owens and Megan Kelly 26 00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:09,560 Speaker 3: and Nick Fuentz and Ben Shapiro and all of them 27 00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:13,040 Speaker 3: were front and center over the weekend at well not 28 00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:15,800 Speaker 3: all of them. Candace Owens was not there and fwintest 29 00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:18,880 Speaker 3: was not there, but the others weren't and it was 30 00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:24,480 Speaker 3: really it was really just an odd thing, and there 31 00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:28,080 Speaker 3: were great moments and anytime you can get kids together 32 00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:30,880 Speaker 3: and young people together. And my understanding is about a 33 00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:33,200 Speaker 3: third A lot of people think Amfest is just for kids, 34 00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:37,120 Speaker 3: but only about a third of the attendees happened to be, 35 00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:39,560 Speaker 3: you know, kids. The rest of them were grown adults. 36 00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:42,840 Speaker 3: But regardless, there were a lot of young people there 37 00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:46,400 Speaker 3: and they were excited to meet some of the people 38 00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:49,960 Speaker 3: they considered to be heroes. And I always think that's great. 39 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:52,960 Speaker 3: Now you don't want to what is the word I'm saying, 40 00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:57,080 Speaker 3: pooh pooh on all of that, But we need to 41 00:02:57,320 --> 00:03:00,360 Speaker 3: step back for just a moment and understand that we've 42 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:05,120 Speaker 3: got some challenges here in the conservative movement. And I 43 00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:07,600 Speaker 3: think some people have called it a Maga civil war. 44 00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:11,280 Speaker 3: I think that's a pretty appropriate term. I think there 45 00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:13,240 Speaker 3: were people that came out of there. You were either 46 00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:18,840 Speaker 3: on team Tucker or team Ben Shapiro. You had Erica 47 00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:23,720 Speaker 3: Kirk who announced that moving forward, and I just think 48 00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:26,200 Speaker 3: this is sort of odd, but hear me on this. 49 00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:30,240 Speaker 3: Erica Kirk announced that she will be using all of 50 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:33,239 Speaker 3: her power to get jd Vance elected in twenty twenty eight. 51 00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:35,680 Speaker 3: And the way it was phrased, and I went back 52 00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:37,760 Speaker 3: and listened to the quote, it implies that Turning Point 53 00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:40,800 Speaker 3: USA is going all in for jd Vance. And jd 54 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:45,160 Speaker 3: Vance was the keynote speaker and he delivered a great speech. 55 00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:49,000 Speaker 3: I mean, I think he hit a home run with 56 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:52,680 Speaker 3: this speech. But does that mean that jd Vance is 57 00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:55,480 Speaker 3: going to be the next president of these great United States? Well, 58 00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:58,400 Speaker 3: according to Turning Point USA, it is. That's it. He's 59 00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:04,160 Speaker 3: the nominee. Well, I you know, I understand the enthusiasm 60 00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 3: and maybe she misspoke, but they didn't correct that. They 61 00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:10,320 Speaker 3: didn't correct it anytime over the weekend, So I have 62 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:12,760 Speaker 3: to believe this is really where they're going with all 63 00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:15,720 Speaker 3: of this. She says, Charlie and JD were very best 64 00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:19,440 Speaker 3: friends and therefore this is what Charlie would have wanted. 65 00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:24,800 Speaker 3: There's some speculation that JD was actually going to pick 66 00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:28,000 Speaker 3: Charlie Kirk as the running mate. I mean, was that's 67 00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:32,000 Speaker 3: actually that narrative came out over the weekend that that 68 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:34,960 Speaker 3: was the overall plan. The original plan was for JD 69 00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 3: to run in twenty eight and Charlie Kirk would be 70 00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:42,719 Speaker 3: his running mate, and then Charlie would would be the 71 00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:46,119 Speaker 3: guy after that. So they were building not so much 72 00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:49,560 Speaker 3: and hear me on this, they were building not so 73 00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:53,960 Speaker 3: much a conservative movement, but a political campaign platform that 74 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:57,160 Speaker 3: would have lifted Charlie to the White House. And that 75 00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:00,480 Speaker 3: was ultimately, I think the goal here. I think that's 76 00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:07,000 Speaker 3: why there's been so much anger internally because now nobody 77 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:09,960 Speaker 3: knows what's going on. So and I'm not saying Charlie 78 00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:12,200 Speaker 3: would have made a good president or a band president 79 00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:16,440 Speaker 3: or I'm just telling you this was the plan. So 80 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:24,440 Speaker 3: here's my concern with this, And oh Jesu, it's I 81 00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:26,120 Speaker 3: know it's Monday. I don't want to go down this 82 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 3: path right now, but We've got to go down this 83 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:30,000 Speaker 3: path for just a moment, so let me let me 84 00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:33,200 Speaker 3: back up for a moment. There are two major two 85 00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 3: There are two major conservative organizations or organizations that are 86 00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:44,040 Speaker 3: are are introducing the conservative ideology to America's young people. 87 00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:47,440 Speaker 3: One of them is called Young America's Foundation. They've been 88 00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:51,159 Speaker 3: around since the nineteen sixties, founded by William F. Buckley Junior. 89 00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:53,800 Speaker 3: Ronald Reagan was very involved in it. I've been very 90 00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:57,719 Speaker 3: involved in it, and they are the caretakers, for example, 91 00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:04,200 Speaker 3: the Reagan Ranch, and they actually teach young people how to, 92 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:07,760 Speaker 3: you know, what it means to be a conservative and 93 00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:12,520 Speaker 3: how to apply conservative ideas to whatever they do in life. 94 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:17,760 Speaker 3: They it's really a wonderful organization and they've been doing 95 00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:19,479 Speaker 3: this for a very long time. And look, it's a 96 00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:21,040 Speaker 3: lot of fun. You've got a lot of young people, 97 00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:23,160 Speaker 3: and they don't have the tens of thousands. They have 98 00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:26,680 Speaker 3: hundreds of kids that come to their gatherings and they 99 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:30,800 Speaker 3: are more well. Jesse Waters put it like this many 100 00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:34,280 Speaker 3: years ago. He said, yeahff, Young Americans Foundation is where 101 00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:37,920 Speaker 3: kids go to learn, and Turning Point USA is where 102 00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:41,120 Speaker 3: kids go to party. And I'm not saying that's a 103 00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:43,320 Speaker 3: bad thing. I'm just saying that was what you know, 104 00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:46,680 Speaker 3: that's how people sort of perceived both of these organizations. 105 00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:50,680 Speaker 3: And the concern is that, you know, are kids going 106 00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:54,360 Speaker 3: to be able to get that that depth of knowledge? 107 00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:57,839 Speaker 3: Because there's nothing wrong with having a lot, There's absolutely 108 00:06:57,839 --> 00:06:59,880 Speaker 3: nothing wrong with what happened over the weekend. I think 109 00:06:59,880 --> 00:07:03,400 Speaker 3: it's a beautiful thing that happened over the weekend. But 110 00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:06,880 Speaker 3: when it comes to actually the knowledge part of it, 111 00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:09,800 Speaker 3: are the students getting that? Are the young people getting that? 112 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:14,240 Speaker 3: And keep in mind, YEAFF is predominantly for young people. 113 00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:16,679 Speaker 3: I mean, that's all they do is that middle school, 114 00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:24,680 Speaker 3: high school, and college. So anyway, I just you wonder 115 00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:28,080 Speaker 3: where all of this is going and what does this 116 00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:31,920 Speaker 3: mean for the movement because people are just now beginning 117 00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:35,000 Speaker 3: to wake up to something that I've been explaining to 118 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:37,160 Speaker 3: you for a long time, knowing this was going to 119 00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:40,920 Speaker 3: become a big issue. And the problem here is that 120 00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:45,360 Speaker 3: the Republican Party as we know it really is not 121 00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:48,080 Speaker 3: so much a Republican party in ward, and it's certainly 122 00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:52,160 Speaker 3: not a conservative party anymore. It is more of a 123 00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:56,800 Speaker 3: of a fusion populist party. Now that's sort of what 124 00:07:56,840 --> 00:08:00,640 Speaker 3: we're dealing with and it's causing and that's where these 125 00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:05,240 Speaker 3: riffs are starting to pop up. And we played yesterday, 126 00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:08,120 Speaker 3: we played some on Friday Show, we played some of 127 00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:10,880 Speaker 3: what Ben Shapiro was talking about. Ben opened up the 128 00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:13,840 Speaker 3: show and I think this is it's interesting the kinds 129 00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 3: of people that were platformed at TPUSA find this to 130 00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:23,440 Speaker 3: be fascinating because Ben and Tucker went at it. Then 131 00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:28,440 Speaker 3: you've got Megan Kelly going after going after Ben Shapiro, 132 00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:32,240 Speaker 3: and I'm just gonna I'm just telling you, Tucker Carlson's 133 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 3: been all over the spectrum when it comes to his politics. 134 00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:37,560 Speaker 3: So as Megan Kelly. Back when she was doing her 135 00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:40,520 Speaker 3: show at NBC. By though, if you remember this, she 136 00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:43,520 Speaker 3: was pro transgender. As a matter of fact, she used 137 00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:49,160 Speaker 3: her platform to advance the transgender agenda. I would not 138 00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:52,880 Speaker 3: consider Megan Kelly to be a conservative. I just simply 139 00:08:52,880 --> 00:09:00,480 Speaker 3: would not. Steve Bannon also coming under fire, and so 140 00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:05,480 Speaker 3: all of these folks are coming under fire, and Ben 141 00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:08,080 Speaker 3: Shapiro started off, I think this is fascinating how the 142 00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:10,040 Speaker 3: media is spinning this, and you can kind of get 143 00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:12,320 Speaker 3: an idea of where all of this is going because 144 00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:15,840 Speaker 3: the media is saying, oh, Ben Shapiro has been attacked 145 00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:19,480 Speaker 3: for being a Jew. No, that's not true. Ben Shapiro 146 00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:24,440 Speaker 3: came out and used his remarks, used his platform to 147 00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:30,360 Speaker 3: attack Tucker and Steve Bannon and Megan Kelly and all 148 00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:33,559 Speaker 3: these others. Candice, all of these other people, and these 149 00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:36,960 Speaker 3: other people at that point were obligated to use their 150 00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:41,800 Speaker 3: remarks to respond to Ben Shapiro. But they're trying to 151 00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:45,000 Speaker 3: portray Shapiro here as the victim. I don't think he's 152 00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:49,320 Speaker 3: the victim. I mean, he started all of this. But 153 00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:53,960 Speaker 3: what bothered me about this weekend It exposed this ugly 154 00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:58,920 Speaker 3: underbelly of the conservative social media influencer world where it 155 00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:04,400 Speaker 3: was all about them. It was all about them. It 156 00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:07,520 Speaker 3: should have been all about the movement. It should have 157 00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:12,959 Speaker 3: been all about stepping up and understanding what's at stake 158 00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:16,800 Speaker 3: in twenty twenty six, mobilizing the forces U nineteen together 159 00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:21,959 Speaker 3: and moving forward, And instead they sort of came out 160 00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:26,679 Speaker 3: of their fractured So we're going to play a lot 161 00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:30,839 Speaker 3: of audio, and I greatly appreciate what jd Vance had 162 00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:34,079 Speaker 3: to say, but is he going to be the nominee? 163 00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:35,920 Speaker 3: Is he the nominee? I mean, you've got a lot 164 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:37,840 Speaker 3: of other folks that are going to be throwing their 165 00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:40,120 Speaker 3: name in the head. And here's where I think Turning 166 00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:41,960 Speaker 3: Point got off the mark. 167 00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:45,760 Speaker 4: Just was it? 168 00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:49,520 Speaker 3: Last week? They had a big meeting in Tennessee and 169 00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:52,679 Speaker 3: the governor and Senator Marshall Blackburn and all these other 170 00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:55,480 Speaker 3: And so now that the state of Tennessee is now 171 00:10:55,559 --> 00:11:00,160 Speaker 3: partnering to put Turning Point USA chapters in every zing 172 00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:04,319 Speaker 3: public school in the state, every single one of them. 173 00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:09,400 Speaker 3: And as soon as I heard this, I sort of cringed, 174 00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:11,679 Speaker 3: and people are coming out, They're like, well, Steinge, what's 175 00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:14,480 Speaker 3: wrong with you? Why would you not want the state 176 00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:18,360 Speaker 3: to sponsor a conservative club, Because it's the same reason 177 00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:20,480 Speaker 3: I would not want the state to support a Democrat 178 00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:23,920 Speaker 3: club or a liberal club. We're not in the business. 179 00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:28,320 Speaker 3: That's not the role of government. And so now we've 180 00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:31,680 Speaker 3: got and everybody, I mean, there was huge pomp and fanfare, 181 00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:33,960 Speaker 3: and people are so excited about this that our tax 182 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:39,520 Speaker 3: dollars are being used for this. Well, what happens when 183 00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:42,240 Speaker 3: a Democrat governor decides he's going to put Antifa groups 184 00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:44,920 Speaker 3: in all the schools, because you're going to be setting 185 00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:49,400 Speaker 3: a precedent here. But now you have to step back, 186 00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:52,080 Speaker 3: and you have to ask yourself a question, are those 187 00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:55,760 Speaker 3: going to be Turning Point USA chapters or will those 188 00:11:55,840 --> 00:12:01,240 Speaker 3: chapters beat JD. Van's campaign headquarters, Because now Turning Point 189 00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:04,800 Speaker 3: has already thrown in with Jdvans. And if that's what 190 00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:08,480 Speaker 3: they want to do, more power to them. But that's 191 00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:10,839 Speaker 3: not what the conservative movement is about. You see, on 192 00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:14,400 Speaker 3: the conservative side of the aisle, we do not anoint people. 193 00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:19,800 Speaker 3: We do not have coronations. We have something called primaries, 194 00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:24,720 Speaker 3: we have something called debates, and the best arguments win 195 00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:27,840 Speaker 3: the day. I mean, that's how it's worked in the past. 196 00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:32,200 Speaker 3: But Turning Point seems to think they have the ability 197 00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:35,920 Speaker 3: to anoint whoever the next nominee is going to be, 198 00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:38,640 Speaker 3: and maybe it is going to be Jdvans, But I 199 00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:40,400 Speaker 3: don't know about you. I'd like to see him all 200 00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:43,720 Speaker 3: all up on a stage. I mean, up until two 201 00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:47,000 Speaker 3: years ago, JD. Vance was a rabid never trumper who 202 00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:50,840 Speaker 3: thought the president was a Nazi. I'd be curious to 203 00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:55,040 Speaker 3: know how JD. Vance, how his opinions changed over time. 204 00:12:55,080 --> 00:13:01,000 Speaker 3: I'd love to hear his conversion story, if you will. 205 00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:04,439 Speaker 3: But that's just me. So anyway, we're going to open 206 00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:08,520 Speaker 3: up the phone calls. As we asked students a question, 207 00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:13,760 Speaker 3: are you on team Are you on Team Tucker or 208 00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:18,480 Speaker 3: are you on Team Shapiro? Which team are you on? 209 00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:21,560 Speaker 3: Nine oh one two six zero five nine two six 210 00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:24,280 Speaker 3: is our number. That's nine oh one two six zero 211 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:28,760 Speaker 3: five nine two six. Now let me say this. I hope, 212 00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:31,000 Speaker 3: I hope you have a lot of people that you 213 00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:37,840 Speaker 3: listen to, that that give you guidance, that give you counsel. 214 00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:42,559 Speaker 3: But I hope for you that you the greatest influence 215 00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:44,760 Speaker 3: in your life is not some sort of a podcaster, 216 00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:48,080 Speaker 3: but I hope it's our Lord and Savior. I mean, 217 00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:54,360 Speaker 3: that's ultimately who should be influencing everything about you. Everything 218 00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:57,559 Speaker 3: about your life should be influenced by your relationship with Christ. 219 00:13:57,920 --> 00:13:59,559 Speaker 3: I mean, that's what it means to be a Christian. 220 00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:04,080 Speaker 3: And I think we're starting to lose sight of that 221 00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:07,080 Speaker 3: in the conservative movement right now. We're starting to buy 222 00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:10,520 Speaker 3: into this cult of personality.

If you go back and listen 279 00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:34,520 Speaker 3: to me fifteen twenty years ago, I'm saying the exact 280 00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:38,360 Speaker 3: same thing today that I said then. And that's not 281 00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:40,639 Speaker 3: to say that you know, you learn and sometimes your 282 00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:44,880 Speaker 3: views change, but your core beliefs those are Those are 283 00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:48,320 Speaker 3: what I'm interested in. And now you've got Tucker Carlson 284 00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:51,880 Speaker 3: out there saying that we should be embracing Islam.

There 297 00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:37,600 Speaker 3: were some people at TPUSA at Amfest they delivered speeches 298 00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:40,280 Speaker 3: where they just talked about the movement and they pounded 299 00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:44,240 Speaker 3: that message home.

That was the poll of you saying 332 00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:04,040 Speaker 3: yes to me is getting better under President Trump's leadership. 333 00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:08,280 Speaker 3: So there you go, A four percent say no, five 334 00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:13,720 Speaker 3: percent still undecided, So there you go. Also Vice President JD. 335 00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:22,639 Speaker 3: Vance making a pronouncement yesterday at at Amfest, he said, 336 00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:26,280 Speaker 3: in the United States, you don't have to apologize for 337 00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:28,560 Speaker 3: being white anymore. Take a listen. 338 00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:33,399 Speaker 6: Unlike the left, we stand against treating anybody and I 339 00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:37,080 Speaker 6: love what Nicky said about this. We don't treat anybody 340 00:21:37,119 --> 00:21:40,520 Speaker 6: different because of their race or their sex. So we 341 00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:44,399 Speaker 6: have relegated DEI to the dustbin of history, which is 342 00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:58,520 Speaker 6: exactly where it belongs. In the United States of America, 343 00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:08,080 Speaker 6: you don't have to apologize for being white anymore. And 344 00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:10,320 Speaker 6: if you're an Asian, you don't have to talk around 345 00:22:10,359 --> 00:22:13,320 Speaker 6: your skin color when you're applying for college, because we 346 00:22:13,520 --> 00:22:17,760 Speaker 6: judge people based on who they are, not on ethnicity 347 00:22:17,840 --> 00:22:26,720 Speaker 6: and things they can't control. We don't persecute you for 348 00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:30,280 Speaker 6: being male, for being straight, for being gay, for being anything. 349 00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:32,560 Speaker 6: The only thing that we demand is that you be 350 00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:36,040 Speaker 6: a great American patriot. And if you're that, you're very 351 00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:40,840 Speaker 6: much on our team. 352 00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:45,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, I love this and I'm look as a fella. Look, 353 00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:51,440 Speaker 3: I am proud to call myself Vanilla and it's vanilla, 354 00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:55,080 Speaker 3: that's right, or Nella, you call me wafer, don't call 355 00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:58,280 Speaker 3: me a wayfer. But there's nothing wrong with being white 356 00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:00,960 Speaker 3: an America. And I don't know what one day, kids 357 00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:03,320 Speaker 3: just woke up and they were like, oh, you're white. Well, 358 00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:06,240 Speaker 3: God made a mistake. You know, you're responsible for all 359 00:23:06,320 --> 00:23:10,879 Speaker 3: the ills of the world for and understand this if 360 00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:12,840 Speaker 3: you want to know where young people are right now 361 00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:16,400 Speaker 3: and why young people and especially young white men are 362 00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:19,720 Speaker 3: so demoralized, and well, let me back up here, let 363 00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:22,760 Speaker 3: me back up, because they're coming out of that that 364 00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:26,720 Speaker 3: sort of funk that they were in. And the reason 365 00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:30,000 Speaker 3: why is because of Donald J. Trump. But you've got 366 00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:33,639 Speaker 3: oh gosh, this goes all the way back to B. H. 367 00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:38,320 Speaker 3: Obama Barack Hussein Obama days and when critical race theory 368 00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:41,600 Speaker 3: and common core was sort of all the rage and 369 00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:44,600 Speaker 3: they literally taught so you have let's just say you're 370 00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:48,359 Speaker 3: in school and you're from like two thousand and eight 371 00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:56,480 Speaker 3: until well last year, you had these folks out there 372 00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:01,320 Speaker 3: and they're out there telling kids every single day in 373 00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:05,040 Speaker 3: their classrooms. Listen up, all of you white people, all 374 00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:11,160 Speaker 3: you white kids, you're the problem. It was your ancestors 375 00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:14,000 Speaker 3: who screwed up the world. It was your ancestors who 376 00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:18,119 Speaker 3: stole this land from the Indian people. And it doesn't 377 00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:21,800 Speaker 3: matter who you are, it doesn't matter what your circumstances are. 378 00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:25,359 Speaker 3: You have privilege that no other child has. As a 379 00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:30,840 Speaker 3: matter of fact, white person, you are responsible for the 380 00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:36,160 Speaker 3: failings of every other race in the world. You because 381 00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:40,280 Speaker 3: you were born white, you are an oppressor. And if 382 00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:45,920 Speaker 3: you're born a minority, well you're oppressed. And a lot 383 00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:48,360 Speaker 3: of kids are like, wait what. 384 00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:50,680 Speaker 7: I mean? 385 00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:53,920 Speaker 3: Can you imagine being taught as and just think about this. 386 00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:58,119 Speaker 3: Let's see two thousand and eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen, forty, fifteen, 387 00:24:58,119 --> 00:25:01,040 Speaker 3: sixty seventy. So you've got kids that have gone through 388 00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:05,080 Speaker 3: twelve years, thirteen years, you account preschool, fourteen if they're 389 00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:08,720 Speaker 3: doing kindergarten too, you've got kids for fourteen years. All right, 390 00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:11,280 Speaker 3: just think about this for a moment, and every single 391 00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:14,480 Speaker 3: day they've been told there's something wrong with them because 392 00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:18,120 Speaker 3: of the color of their skin. How do you think 393 00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:21,399 Speaker 3: that plays on the psyche of a child? What do 394 00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:27,000 Speaker 3: you think that does to that kid's internal thinking, which 395 00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:30,080 Speaker 3: is why you've got a lot of crazy leftist women 396 00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:34,760 Speaker 3: with magenta hair driving the subarus that somehow think they 397 00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:37,680 Speaker 3: need to be the savior of the black community. It's 398 00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:44,840 Speaker 3: because they were brainwashed in their public schools. But now 399 00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:49,239 Speaker 3: you've got a new generation, this Gen Alpha group and 400 00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:52,919 Speaker 3: the younger version of Gen Z, and they're sort of 401 00:25:52,960 --> 00:25:55,560 Speaker 3: coming out of this fog and they're realizing, wait a second, 402 00:25:55,840 --> 00:25:58,200 Speaker 3: something's not right here. And you know why they're coming 403 00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:00,200 Speaker 3: out of the fog. It's because people like that Donald 404 00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:02,879 Speaker 3: Trump and Jade Vans were out on the campaign trail 405 00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:05,800 Speaker 3: and they were telling these people, there's nothing wrong with 406 00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:12,640 Speaker 3: the color of your skin. I'm working on a new 407 00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:16,199 Speaker 3: book and I've got a chapter called Diary of an 408 00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:20,159 Speaker 3: Angry White Man. It's a lot of fun, and I'm 409 00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:23,879 Speaker 3: having a lot of fun writing this book as i am. 410 00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:27,920 Speaker 3: And I imagine, you know, as great as things are 411 00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:31,120 Speaker 3: in this world right now, and Donald Trump is doing 412 00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:34,639 Speaker 3: so much to put out so many dumpster fires, but 413 00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:38,000 Speaker 3: one of the biggest ones is this idea that you 414 00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:40,760 Speaker 3: should be ashamed to be a white person in America. 415 00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:44,720 Speaker 3: That is such an ungodly thing. And I say it's 416 00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:48,480 Speaker 3: ungodly because at the root of all of that, the 417 00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:50,399 Speaker 3: root of it, because what is the Bible said. The 418 00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:55,359 Speaker 3: Bible says we were all We're all made in God's image, 419 00:26:56,119 --> 00:27:01,560 Speaker 3: every single one of us walking down the street of Memphis, 420 00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:04,439 Speaker 3: go on grocery shopping and you get shot or carjacked, 421 00:27:04,440 --> 00:27:06,960 Speaker 3: guess what you're gonna bleed red blood. It doesn't matter 422 00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:13,000 Speaker 3: if you're black or white. We're made in God's image. 423 00:27:14,359 --> 00:27:17,159 Speaker 3: So what critical race theory and what common core and 424 00:27:17,160 --> 00:27:20,520 Speaker 3: what the left and all these professional race agitators are 425 00:27:20,600 --> 00:27:23,679 Speaker 3: trying to convince you, is that that God made a 426 00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:30,320 Speaker 3: mistake when he made the white people. And I don't. 427 00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:32,760 Speaker 3: I don't think God makes mistakes. As a matter of fact, 428 00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:36,920 Speaker 3: I know God doesn't make mistakes. And yeah, he took 429 00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:38,560 Speaker 3: He may have taken me out of the oven a 430 00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:41,320 Speaker 3: little bit earlier. So that's why I'm a little blonde. 431 00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:46,560 Speaker 3: I don't know how all that works, but I'm pretty 432 00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:48,919 Speaker 3: fly for a white guy. I got no problem with that. 433 00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:55,680 Speaker 3: Be proud of how God made you. But ultimately, that's 434 00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:58,119 Speaker 3: why I call it ungodly, because they want you to 435 00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:00,880 Speaker 3: believe that God somehow, I don't know, made some sort 436 00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:07,480 Speaker 3: of mistake. So, Dylan, I've got this chapter and in 437 00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:10,919 Speaker 3: the book, and it imagines so and this is setting 438 00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:13,080 Speaker 3: up the book will be coming outrightval for the midterms. 439 00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:17,600 Speaker 3: And this chapter sets up what America would look like 440 00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:22,000 Speaker 3: if AOC and Jasmin Crockett were a president and vice 441 00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:24,840 Speaker 3: president of the United States. Now a lot of fun 442 00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:28,919 Speaker 3: writing this champter, but it set up. It set up 443 00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:34,000 Speaker 3: about two years into their administration. And yours truly has 444 00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:36,679 Speaker 3: been taken off the air, and I've been sent to 445 00:28:36,720 --> 00:28:41,440 Speaker 3: work the cotton fields in the Mississippi Delton and it's 446 00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:43,880 Speaker 3: they've pulled me out of my beautiful condo and I 447 00:28:43,920 --> 00:28:48,160 Speaker 3: live in a shotgun shack. I have to go to 448 00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:50,960 Speaker 3: the big plantation house, you know, because I did a 449 00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:54,480 Speaker 3: good job at working the cotton fields, but I got promoted, 450 00:28:54,880 --> 00:28:59,200 Speaker 3: and no, I can't, I shouldn't go. It's I'm having 451 00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:01,280 Speaker 3: way too much fun writing this chapter. That's what I'm 452 00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:05,720 Speaker 3: trying to tell you. But all that to say, that's 453 00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:11,440 Speaker 3: what they want is they want to they want to 454 00:29:11,480 --> 00:29:16,720 Speaker 3: make white people feel weird about themselves, and they want 455 00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:22,480 Speaker 3: you that they want you to to think less of yourself. 456 00:29:23,760 --> 00:29:26,880 Speaker 3: It's a terrible thing, and that's why they're pulling this 457 00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:29,760 Speaker 3: nonsense like reparations, which by the way, is going through 458 00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:33,400 Speaker 3: in California. And that's why, that's why all of this 459 00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:37,120 Speaker 3: is so vitally important for us just to nip in 460 00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:41,640 Speaker 3: the bud. And I'm so glad that Jadevance was able 461 00:29:41,720 --> 00:29:46,000 Speaker 3: to do that at his enduring his remarks there at 462 00:29:46,120 --> 00:29:51,960 Speaker 3: Amfest at Turning Point, USA. And that's why we can't 463 00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:54,800 Speaker 3: afford to have some sort of a civil war within 464 00:29:54,840 --> 00:29:56,680 Speaker 3: the Maga Boo. We can't go down that. But we 465 00:29:56,760 --> 00:29:59,680 Speaker 3: just can't. We don't have time. We don't have time. 466 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:02,040 Speaker 3: We don't have time for Congress to go on these 467 00:30:02,520 --> 00:30:05,720 Speaker 3: weeks long vacations. We don't have time for that. We've 468 00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:10,280 Speaker 3: got a country to save. And in all honesty, where 469 00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:13,120 Speaker 3: was Where was Megan Kelly back when we were all 470 00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:16,680 Speaker 3: getting canceled? Where was Tucker when we were all getting canceled? 471 00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:21,320 Speaker 3: And there's a mean streak in all those folks, and 472 00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:23,360 Speaker 3: I've seen it up close and personal, and it's not 473 00:30:23,400 --> 00:30:28,320 Speaker 3: a good look for any of them. But we got 474 00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:30,800 Speaker 3: to we've got to figure out who's on our side 475 00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:33,080 Speaker 3: and who's trying to take advantage of us. And I 476 00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:35,440 Speaker 3: think you've got a pretty clear indication of that. Over 477 00:30:35,480 --> 00:30:38,600 Speaker 3: the weekend at Amfest, we got to take a break here. 478 00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:41,320 Speaker 3: Nine oh one two six zero five nine two six 479 00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:43,960 Speaker 3: are a number.

If we felt like that as black women, 526 00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:29,600 Speaker 8: why would we want to do that to other women? 527 00:33:30,120 --> 00:33:32,680 Speaker 8: Come on, why would we now need to make other 528 00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:38,080 Speaker 8: people downplay their beauty so that we can feel No, 529 00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:40,600 Speaker 8: that's not how it works. I don't need someone with 530 00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:45,240 Speaker 8: blonde hair and blue eyes to downplay their beauty because 531 00:33:45,320 --> 00:33:49,360 Speaker 8: I know my beauty. Do you understand? It doesn't bother 532 00:33:49,600 --> 00:33:54,560 Speaker 8: me that a woman feels and says that she's beautiful. 533 00:33:55,160 --> 00:33:56,840 Speaker 9: Why shouldn't she feel that? 534 00:33:57,240 --> 00:34:00,680 Speaker 10: Why have we gotten to a point where certain colors 535 00:34:00,800 --> 00:34:03,920 Speaker 10: or certain kinds of people have to be afraid of 536 00:34:04,160 --> 00:34:08,040 Speaker 10: loving themselves and loving the way they look like. 537 00:34:08,120 --> 00:34:09,760 Speaker 8: It isn't that wild? 538 00:34:11,960 --> 00:34:16,080 Speaker 3: You go, Nicki Minaj I like, you know, here's the thing. 539 00:34:17,800 --> 00:34:22,480 Speaker 3: I'm glad that she's on board. And I was glad. 540 00:34:22,640 --> 00:34:25,399 Speaker 3: You know, it's like, oh, is it Justin Bieber when 541 00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:28,319 Speaker 3: he was becoming an evangelist at one point and then 542 00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:31,560 Speaker 3: sort of you know, fell off the wagon and all 543 00:34:31,600 --> 00:34:34,560 Speaker 3: these we have a big problem in the conservative movement 544 00:34:34,640 --> 00:34:38,800 Speaker 3: and then the evangelical Christian movement. If somebody says Jesus 545 00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:42,200 Speaker 3: or Ronald Reagan, they become like the next spokespeople for 546 00:34:42,280 --> 00:34:43,880 Speaker 3: the movement. Have you noticed this villain? 547 00:34:44,120 --> 00:34:48,160 Speaker 7: Yeah, so the Kanye thing and Justin Bieber. I'm hoping 548 00:34:48,239 --> 00:34:50,399 Speaker 7: Nicki Minaj is not in that it's in the same 549 00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:53,720 Speaker 7: case here. But yeah, as soon as they profess something, 550 00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:55,560 Speaker 7: you're like, all right, let's put them on the stage, 551 00:34:55,640 --> 00:34:58,480 Speaker 7: let's let's have him speak to people like and then 552 00:34:58,520 --> 00:34:59,920 Speaker 7: they turn out to be you. 553 00:34:59,840 --> 00:35:05,239 Speaker 3: Know or the chrislies. Right, Yeah, they broke the law 554 00:35:05,440 --> 00:35:11,120 Speaker 3: and crying out like, I don't know why. It's you know, 555 00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:13,600 Speaker 3: because we don't have a lot of celebrity. You know, 556 00:35:13,920 --> 00:35:18,520 Speaker 3: it's all about power and celebrity at the core of everything. 557 00:35:18,640 --> 00:35:21,120 Speaker 3: That's what it's about. And it's it's said, I see 558 00:35:21,160 --> 00:35:24,720 Speaker 3: this up close and personal in the evangelical Christian world. 559 00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:28,719 Speaker 3: And when you if you're on Fox News, they worship you. 560 00:35:29,880 --> 00:35:33,520 Speaker 3: When you when your contracts ends at Fox not so 561 00:35:33,640 --> 00:35:37,000 Speaker 3: much so.

Laura Lumer actually pointed 593 00:37:27,680 --> 00:37:31,000 Speaker 3: out that we are now watching this movement within the 594 00:37:31,520 --> 00:37:37,560 Speaker 3: this this conservative world now embracing Islam. That is a 595 00:37:37,719 --> 00:37:41,480 Speaker 3: very very dangerous path that we're going down as a country. 596 00:37:41,560 --> 00:37:47,400 Speaker 11: If that happens, it is Todd and is turning point 597 00:37:47,520 --> 00:37:50,200 Speaker 11: going to turn against what Charlie stood for. 598 00:37:52,200 --> 00:37:54,879 Speaker 3: It's a great question because Tucker is standing up there 599 00:37:54,920 --> 00:37:58,960 Speaker 3: and again, you know Ben Shapiro's all upset about platforming 600 00:37:59,040 --> 00:38:01,920 Speaker 3: all these folks. Well, Ben should have used his speech 601 00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:04,960 Speaker 3: to condemn Turning Point USA, because they're the ones who 602 00:38:05,040 --> 00:38:08,520 Speaker 3: invited Tucker and Megan and Steve Bannon to come and 603 00:38:08,560 --> 00:38:10,440 Speaker 3: speak this past weekend.

I disagree vehemently with Candace 613 00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:43,040 Speaker 3: and Tucker, and I disagree with Ben Shapiro. We all 614 00:38:43,080 --> 00:38:45,320 Speaker 3: have our own opinions, and I think we ought to 615 00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:48,120 Speaker 3: be grown up enough to tolerate all of that. That 616 00:38:48,160 --> 00:38:50,200 Speaker 3: doesn't mean you have to platform these people. I'm not 617 00:38:50,239 --> 00:38:53,239 Speaker 3: bringing Ben Shapiro onto this program or or you know, 618 00:38:53,360 --> 00:38:56,720 Speaker 3: Nick Fuenttes, but I will say this.

It's 849 00:51:04,520 --> 00:51:08,879 Speaker 13: a national warm weather, cool working weather out here. But hey, 850 00:51:08,920 --> 00:51:11,200 Speaker 13: I just wanted to bring up about, you know, the 851 00:51:11,280 --> 00:51:13,800 Speaker 13: vice presidential candidates you know of come in the future. 852 00:51:14,280 --> 00:51:15,080 Speaker 5: I hope. 853 00:51:17,080 --> 00:51:19,520 Speaker 13: Jd Vance doesn't steal all the all the glory in 854 00:51:19,560 --> 00:51:22,600 Speaker 13: the limelight. Uh yeah, he's getting all the coverage right now. 855 00:51:22,760 --> 00:51:25,600 Speaker 13: And a guy that's really doing the groundwork, that's taking 856 00:51:25,600 --> 00:51:28,440 Speaker 13: care of a lot of things is Rubio, Mark Rubio. 857 00:51:28,520 --> 00:51:32,040 Speaker 13: He's got three different jobs, worked for Trump, taking care 858 00:51:32,040 --> 00:51:35,480 Speaker 13: of a lot of business, that's the conservative things. And uh, 859 00:51:35,840 --> 00:51:37,839 Speaker 13: you know, it's like jd Vance is just the vice 860 00:51:37,880 --> 00:51:40,760 Speaker 13: and he's getting all the photo ops and it looks 861 00:51:40,800 --> 00:51:43,200 Speaker 13: like to me that's what's happening. Then I think Rubio 862 00:51:43,320 --> 00:51:45,640 Speaker 13: deserves a lot of the credit. I'd like to see 863 00:51:45,719 --> 00:51:50,000 Speaker 13: him have a better chance at being the vice president. 864 00:51:50,680 --> 00:51:53,040 Speaker 13: He has a long history of being a conservative and 865 00:51:53,080 --> 00:51:56,640 Speaker 13: carrying a conservative movement, and I think he would get 866 00:51:56,640 --> 00:51:58,719 Speaker 13: in there once he is here, if he gets the presidency, 867 00:51:58,800 --> 00:52:02,360 Speaker 13: he would stick with the conservative ideas with it's maga 868 00:52:02,440 --> 00:52:03,640 Speaker 13: or whatever you want to call it. 869 00:52:04,200 --> 00:52:04,319 Speaker 9: Uh. 870 00:52:04,760 --> 00:52:07,439 Speaker 13: I kind of I kind of just don't don't really 871 00:52:07,480 --> 00:52:11,040 Speaker 13: trust JD that much. Uh, you know, he's new to 872 00:52:11,120 --> 00:52:13,560 Speaker 13: the movement. I mean, he just got to shoot into 873 00:52:13,560 --> 00:52:17,120 Speaker 13: being vice president. He just kind of streaming along. And 874 00:52:17,239 --> 00:52:18,879 Speaker 13: I don't know what he would do when he gets 875 00:52:18,880 --> 00:52:21,560 Speaker 13: in there if he had the presidency and he did 876 00:52:21,600 --> 00:52:23,520 Speaker 13: have Trump there to supervise him. 877 00:52:23,840 --> 00:52:26,319 Speaker 3: Well, that's an interesting thought there. Who hold that fan 878 00:52:26,400 --> 00:52:29,520 Speaker 3: for a second, Bob, you know Shanklin, when you look 879 00:52:29,520 --> 00:52:32,000 Speaker 3: at JD. Evan's I mean, he'd never done politics. He 880 00:52:32,080 --> 00:52:35,560 Speaker 3: wrote the book and then became a senator and and 881 00:52:35,719 --> 00:52:39,520 Speaker 3: dropped that so we could run for VP. And meanwhile, 882 00:52:39,600 --> 00:52:42,279 Speaker 3: Rubio has you know, we've got a nice long track 883 00:52:42,320 --> 00:52:43,200 Speaker 3: record with Rubio. 884 00:52:43,280 --> 00:52:45,919 Speaker 2: Well, and Rubio is when he was in Florida as 885 00:52:45,920 --> 00:52:49,239 Speaker 2: a uh I say, he was leader of I think 886 00:52:49,280 --> 00:52:52,040 Speaker 2: of this Senator of the House. Anyways, when he was 887 00:52:52,040 --> 00:52:54,120 Speaker 2: in Florida, he was he's a and he brought that 888 00:52:54,200 --> 00:52:56,399 Speaker 2: to it, brought the skills also to the Senate. He's 889 00:52:56,400 --> 00:53:01,440 Speaker 2: a good legislator. He he got he could get Democrats 890 00:53:01,480 --> 00:53:04,560 Speaker 2: to go along with even a conservative idea. You know, 891 00:53:04,640 --> 00:53:07,520 Speaker 2: he could form legislation. He didn't just you know, attack 892 00:53:07,600 --> 00:53:09,640 Speaker 2: somebody for you know, whatever they had done. So I 893 00:53:09,640 --> 00:53:12,960 Speaker 2: think I think both of them are quite capable. Uh. Rubio, though, 894 00:53:13,640 --> 00:53:17,480 Speaker 2: Belief said, Hey, I'm if if Vance runs, I'm I'm 895 00:53:17,520 --> 00:53:22,680 Speaker 2: for Vance. Yeah, but you know Vance is Vance has 896 00:53:22,719 --> 00:53:24,800 Speaker 2: got to listen to Trump for the next three years. 897 00:53:25,280 --> 00:53:29,320 Speaker 9: So you think you're gonna replace me, He didn't come. 898 00:53:29,440 --> 00:53:33,000 Speaker 9: He's pitch you, Saire, because your friend and you're not 899 00:53:33,160 --> 00:53:35,839 Speaker 9: being nice to me.

Did you ever think way back in the 912 00:54:17,880 --> 00:54:21,960 Speaker 4: early days of working with Rush that it would ever 913 00:54:22,040 --> 00:54:25,759 Speaker 4: get as big as it became? Did you ever see that? 914 00:54:25,880 --> 00:54:27,040 Speaker 4: Did you ever think about that? 915 00:54:27,360 --> 00:54:31,280 Speaker 2: Yeah? I did. I thought I've been a conservative since 916 00:54:31,800 --> 00:54:34,520 Speaker 2: high school. I was raised a Democrat. I didn't know 917 00:54:34,560 --> 00:54:39,040 Speaker 2: there was another party, and so I came over with Reagan, 918 00:54:39,280 --> 00:54:41,600 Speaker 2: and I didn't think there would be quite that same 919 00:54:41,640 --> 00:54:45,000 Speaker 2: movement because Reagan was a very special person for a 920 00:54:45,120 --> 00:54:49,000 Speaker 2: very special time, and there hadn't been anybody since then. 921 00:54:49,040 --> 00:54:52,319 Speaker 2: Because you think about the elder Bush, I'll be kind 922 00:54:52,440 --> 00:54:55,400 Speaker 2: or a gentler kind be kind here on the radio. 923 00:54:55,520 --> 00:54:58,680 Speaker 2: Don't cost travel, don't I mean, that was kind of 924 00:54:58,719 --> 00:55:01,360 Speaker 2: where the party was, and that's always been kind of 925 00:55:01,360 --> 00:55:04,400 Speaker 2: the Republican Party, you know, has always been kindler, gentler. 926 00:55:04,600 --> 00:55:08,000 Speaker 2: It's more like Unitarians were all going to the same place. 927 00:55:08,160 --> 00:55:09,960 Speaker 2: We just some of us are. 928 00:55:09,800 --> 00:55:12,279 Speaker 14: Taking different roads. We're going a little slower with thin 929 00:55:12,360 --> 00:55:15,520 Speaker 14: their liberals. We agree with them on a lot of things, 930 00:55:15,600 --> 00:55:18,040 Speaker 14: and we just want to get along, but we don't 931 00:55:18,040 --> 00:55:19,800 Speaker 14: want to go too fast, want to be gentle. 932 00:55:20,440 --> 00:55:22,680 Speaker 2: Well that's kind of where we were. And then Rush 933 00:55:22,719 --> 00:55:26,520 Speaker 2: came along and said, no, we need to we need 934 00:55:26,560 --> 00:55:29,640 Speaker 2: to fight on principles, and and then you had to 935 00:55:29,719 --> 00:55:33,640 Speaker 2: kind of answer to Rush. I mean, even the Clinton 936 00:55:33,680 --> 00:55:36,440 Speaker 2: White House had people listening. They required them to listen 937 00:55:36,480 --> 00:55:39,640 Speaker 2: to the show during the show so that the Clintons 938 00:55:39,640 --> 00:55:42,640 Speaker 2: could respond to whatever Rush was saying. It was huge, 939 00:55:42,880 --> 00:55:45,279 Speaker 2: and I never knew it was going to be quite 940 00:55:45,280 --> 00:55:47,520 Speaker 2: as big as it ended up being, but I knew 941 00:55:47,520 --> 00:55:47,879 Speaker 2: it had. 942 00:55:47,800 --> 00:55:51,719 Speaker 3: Influence John Great. Yeah, go ahead, finish your thought. 943 00:55:53,000 --> 00:55:55,480 Speaker 4: I think that's what I loved about Rush at such 944 00:55:55,480 --> 00:55:58,120 Speaker 4: a young age. And why listen all the way through 945 00:55:58,200 --> 00:56:01,480 Speaker 4: to when Rush passed away, is like, oh my goodness, 946 00:56:01,560 --> 00:56:04,640 Speaker 4: like this is this is something. There's something great about 947 00:56:04,640 --> 00:56:08,319 Speaker 4: this movement. There's something that's like, it was fun, it 948 00:56:08,520 --> 00:56:12,239 Speaker 4: was great. There was a Grobvi toss to it that like, 949 00:56:12,360 --> 00:56:15,359 Speaker 4: even all these years later, you know, I think, is 950 00:56:15,680 --> 00:56:20,000 Speaker 4: there's a big hole missing in the conservative movement of hey, 951 00:56:20,160 --> 00:56:24,120 Speaker 4: let's unify around one base, let's unify around all these things, 952 00:56:24,200 --> 00:56:27,480 Speaker 4: and man, Rush and you and all of it, you know, 953 00:56:27,719 --> 00:56:31,520 Speaker 4: the whole crew absolutely made me love what can what 954 00:56:31,600 --> 00:56:32,920 Speaker 4: it meant to be a conservative? 955 00:56:33,080 --> 00:56:33,680 Speaker 2: Well, thank you. 956 00:56:33,800 --> 00:56:36,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, it made it fun and and entertaining. 957 00:56:36,560 --> 00:56:40,200 Speaker 2: It was okay.

Well, here's what 1036 01:00:49,520 --> 01:00:52,400 Speaker 15: he did a day before the election on the second 1037 01:00:52,520 --> 01:00:58,760 Speaker 15: term around for the presidency there for Obama was that 1038 01:00:58,840 --> 01:01:00,680 Speaker 15: he came on the radio and stead that he and 1039 01:01:00,720 --> 01:01:04,400 Speaker 15: George Bush would not vote for Romney. They were going 1040 01:01:04,440 --> 01:01:09,320 Speaker 15: to vote toward Obama, and that I don't remember. 1041 01:01:09,360 --> 01:01:10,600 Speaker 3: I don't remember remember that. 1042 01:01:11,040 --> 01:01:13,120 Speaker 2: I think I would have remembered him saying that George 1043 01:01:13,120 --> 01:01:16,000 Speaker 2: Bush wasn't going to vote for him. But I know that, 1044 01:01:16,120 --> 01:01:19,200 Speaker 2: I know that Romney whiffed in the debate. He had 1045 01:01:19,240 --> 01:01:22,360 Speaker 2: a he had a chance to bludgeon Obama like a 1046 01:01:22,400 --> 01:01:26,760 Speaker 2: baby seal and didn't. He held punches and uh, it 1047 01:01:27,120 --> 01:01:30,440 Speaker 2: just he couldn't. He couldn't. He couldn't complete the pass, 1048 01:01:30,520 --> 01:01:32,960 Speaker 2: he couldn't kick it through the goalpost. He couldn't think 1049 01:01:33,000 --> 01:01:37,440 Speaker 2: of whatever analogy you want, but he just whiffed. And 1050 01:01:38,520 --> 01:01:41,160 Speaker 2: you know, I don't want to make anybody really angry. 1051 01:01:41,200 --> 01:01:44,440 Speaker 2: I mean, I want people to like me, but you know, anyways, 1052 01:01:44,480 --> 01:01:45,800 Speaker 2: it just he just fell apart. 1053 01:01:46,240 --> 01:01:48,760 Speaker 3: Well and not only that, but you know, look at 1054 01:01:48,840 --> 01:01:52,320 Speaker 3: John McCain, who had the same issue. He's just refused 1055 01:01:52,360 --> 01:01:55,439 Speaker 3: to go. He refused to go down that page. 1056 01:01:55,480 --> 01:01:58,600 Speaker 2: He's a nice guy. He's a nice guy. I know 1057 01:01:58,720 --> 01:02:01,840 Speaker 2: he's a communist and know he's got a weird background, 1058 01:02:01,840 --> 01:02:05,240 Speaker 2: but he's a nice guy. Don't say ugly things about 1059 01:02:05,280 --> 01:02:09,520 Speaker 2: the other candidate. Really, well, what was he on. 1060 01:02:10,960 --> 01:02:16,000 Speaker 3: Without McCain was a better candidate than Romney, which is shocking. No, 1061 01:02:16,080 --> 01:02:19,920 Speaker 3: you're right, and I look, I remember Sarah Palin on 1062 01:02:20,000 --> 01:02:22,440 Speaker 3: that campaign. If it had not been for her, that 1063 01:02:22,480 --> 01:02:25,880 Speaker 3: would have been the worst landslide I think in political history. 1064 01:02:25,920 --> 01:02:26,640 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, she. 1065 01:02:26,680 --> 01:02:27,440 Speaker 3: Saved him from that. 1066 01:02:27,840 --> 01:02:31,400 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, oh yeah, So, Ted, I'm not understand made 1067 01:02:31,440 --> 01:02:31,960 Speaker 2: it interesting. 1068 01:02:32,280 --> 01:02:35,480 Speaker 3: So why are you blaming Rush for Obama? 1069 01:02:36,480 --> 01:02:38,560 Speaker 15: Because he had Aunsoon on radio loved that he and 1070 01:02:38,600 --> 01:02:42,240 Speaker 15: George Bush were voting for Barack they not vote for Romney. 1071 01:02:42,360 --> 01:02:45,360 Speaker 15: And uh that was it, you know that that gave 1072 01:02:45,880 --> 01:02:50,040 Speaker 15: Obama a second term, be just enough votes to to 1073 01:02:50,120 --> 01:02:53,880 Speaker 15: take him over the top. And and then Obama congratulated 1074 01:02:53,920 --> 01:02:57,280 Speaker 15: Fanks Rush Limbaugh at the Press of gathering they have 1075 01:02:57,360 --> 01:02:57,840 Speaker 15: every year. 1076 01:02:58,120 --> 01:02:59,680 Speaker 3: I don't remember at all. 1077 01:03:00,080 --> 01:03:03,680 Speaker 2: I think you had a really bad dream.

It's going to be the economy. 1304 01:14:01,000 --> 01:14:03,679 Speaker 3: And if things are humming, and was an inflation down 1305 01:14:03,680 --> 01:14:04,960 Speaker 3: what two point seven. 1306 01:14:04,800 --> 01:14:07,680 Speaker 2: Two point seven if you averaged it going forward, so 1307 01:14:07,960 --> 01:14:11,439 Speaker 2: and and that's the inflation. I think in some ways 1308 01:14:11,479 --> 01:14:13,960 Speaker 2: people think, well, all those prices that went up are 1309 01:14:14,000 --> 01:14:17,639 Speaker 2: going to revert, and that was their expectation about inflact. Really, 1310 01:14:17,920 --> 01:14:21,559 Speaker 2: inflation hadn't been in the news forever and as a 1311 01:14:21,600 --> 01:14:24,479 Speaker 2: real thing until Biden came along and reminded everybody that 1312 01:14:24,560 --> 01:14:27,840 Speaker 2: what hell it was in the seventies and here here, 1313 01:14:27,960 --> 01:14:30,400 Speaker 2: uh you know, so there we're wondering, you know, does 1314 01:14:30,439 --> 01:14:32,000 Speaker 2: it all go back to where it used to be, 1315 01:14:32,040 --> 01:14:32,800 Speaker 2: and that it's not. 1316 01:14:33,000 --> 01:14:35,599 Speaker 3: And Patty, I know that the White House announcer putting 1317 01:14:35,600 --> 01:14:38,840 Speaker 3: together a task force to to look into grocery prices 1318 01:14:39,000 --> 01:14:41,920 Speaker 3: because and again it will they will all come down. 1319 01:14:42,000 --> 01:14:44,000 Speaker 3: Theoretically they're going to come down.

But the midterms are 1412 01:20:20,920 --> 01:20:24,240 Speaker 3: typically unfriendly to whoever is in the White House, and 1413 01:20:24,280 --> 01:20:26,320 Speaker 3: we've got to figure out a way to buck that trend. 1414 01:20:26,400 --> 01:20:30,000 Speaker 3: Otherwise the Trump agenda stop stops dead in its tracks. 1415 01:20:30,560 --> 01:20:33,240 Speaker 3: One of the guys running for the US Senate meanwhile, 1416 01:20:33,360 --> 01:20:37,240 Speaker 3: in Virginia or Virginia and North Carolina on the Republican side, 1417 01:20:37,640 --> 01:20:40,840 Speaker 3: our good friend Don Brown joins us.

Just curious to 1422 01:20:49,760 --> 01:20:53,599 Speaker 3: get your take on that that that new survey coming 1423 01:20:53,600 --> 01:20:57,120 Speaker 3: out from Trump's go to polster there any are you 1424 01:20:57,240 --> 01:20:59,360 Speaker 3: are you feeling that? Are you sensing that out on 1425 01:20:59,400 --> 01:21:00,280 Speaker 3: the campaign trail? 1426 01:21:01,040 --> 01:21:03,840 Speaker 19: Well, of course, we have these oddier midterms, in these 1427 01:21:03,960 --> 01:21:07,200 Speaker 19: municipal elections that we can't get Republicans to come out, 1428 01:21:07,640 --> 01:21:09,920 Speaker 19: and as you pointed out a moment ago, it's it's 1429 01:21:09,960 --> 01:21:12,920 Speaker 19: pretty common for the party out of the White House 1430 01:21:13,240 --> 01:21:16,800 Speaker 19: to do a little less well in the midterms. But 1431 01:21:16,880 --> 01:21:19,120 Speaker 19: we still have ten months to go. I think they're 1432 01:21:19,160 --> 01:21:23,479 Speaker 19: trying to claim to make this inflation thing. We've got 1433 01:21:23,479 --> 01:21:26,320 Speaker 19: to bring grocery prices down, for sure, but gasoline prices 1434 01:21:26,360 --> 01:21:29,840 Speaker 19: have come down, and it's still ten months away, so 1435 01:21:29,920 --> 01:21:32,519 Speaker 19: there's a lot of water to row between now and then. 1436 01:21:32,560 --> 01:21:35,280 Speaker 19: But I'm not surprised at the polling and don't really 1437 01:21:35,280 --> 01:21:37,519 Speaker 19: have any reason to data at this point except we're 1438 01:21:37,520 --> 01:21:39,240 Speaker 19: going to try to get this thing turned around, and 1439 01:21:39,280 --> 01:21:39,880 Speaker 19: I think we can. 1440 01:21:40,600 --> 01:21:42,439 Speaker 3: Yeah, look, I think a lot of that. I think 1441 01:21:42,439 --> 01:21:44,880 Speaker 3: it's too early. Honestly, I think all of this polling 1442 01:21:44,960 --> 01:21:47,880 Speaker 3: data is way too early. Let's see what the economy 1443 01:21:47,880 --> 01:21:51,679 Speaker 3: looks like once the big beautiful bill kicks in January one. 1444 01:21:52,280 --> 01:21:54,519 Speaker 3: And you know, if we're still looking at high grocery 1445 01:21:54,560 --> 01:21:57,600 Speaker 3: prices by the summertime, okay, yeah, that's going to be 1446 01:21:57,800 --> 01:21:59,920 Speaker 3: that will be a death nail for a lot of 1447 01:22:00,080 --> 01:22:02,479 Speaker 3: Republicans out there. But I think we got to give 1448 01:22:02,479 --> 01:22:02,920 Speaker 3: it time. 1449 01:22:04,040 --> 01:22:04,479 Speaker 19: I agree. 1450 01:22:04,560 --> 01:22:04,960 Speaker 13: I agree. 1451 01:22:05,000 --> 01:22:06,519 Speaker 19: I think you're reading the t V is just right 1452 01:22:06,520 --> 01:22:07,880 Speaker 19: on that, Todd, I really do. 1453 01:22:08,400 --> 01:22:12,200 Speaker 3: I'm looking at these numbers here.

We're looking at you know, incomes arising, and 1458 01:22:27,040 --> 01:22:29,280 Speaker 3: I think a housing plan is on the way, and 1459 01:22:29,320 --> 01:22:32,120 Speaker 3: we're getting all these illegals out of the country, So 1460 01:22:32,520 --> 01:22:34,840 Speaker 3: you know, I think things are looking pretty good out there. 1461 01:22:35,479 --> 01:22:38,960 Speaker 19: Sure and tot. We've heard some reports in South Carolina, 1462 01:22:39,479 --> 01:22:41,479 Speaker 19: which is I'm the Charlotte area and we're on the 1463 01:22:41,520 --> 01:22:45,519 Speaker 19: border of certain places at gasoline, they found gasoline under 1464 01:22:45,560 --> 01:22:48,360 Speaker 19: two in the one nineties. I think that may be 1465 01:22:48,360 --> 01:22:51,360 Speaker 19: the lowest in the country, but certainly you drop the 1466 01:22:51,680 --> 01:22:54,880 Speaker 19: petroleum prices down and everything clicker from that. 1467 01:22:55,000 --> 01:22:55,720 Speaker 4: We do have to. 1468 01:22:55,640 --> 01:22:59,120 Speaker 19: Get aggressive and some more digital deregulation with certain commodities 1469 01:22:59,120 --> 01:23:02,320 Speaker 19: on the ship off like Meath and Darry There's some 1470 01:23:02,360 --> 01:23:04,880 Speaker 19: things we can do to deregulate to bring the pressure 1471 01:23:04,920 --> 01:23:07,120 Speaker 19: down even more. But I agree with you, Let's see 1472 01:23:07,120 --> 01:23:08,880 Speaker 19: how it plays out in the next ten months. We're 1473 01:23:08,880 --> 01:23:11,280 Speaker 19: on the right direction. The President put us in the 1474 01:23:11,320 --> 01:23:13,000 Speaker 19: right direction, so we'll just see how it goes. But 1475 01:23:13,240 --> 01:23:15,599 Speaker 19: I'm optimistic despite that very early poll. 1476 01:23:16,120 --> 01:23:18,360 Speaker 3: Hey, don I want to get your take on what 1477 01:23:18,439 --> 01:23:21,639 Speaker 3: happened over the weekend at Amfest, because there does seem 1478 01:23:21,680 --> 01:23:27,559 Speaker 3: to be divisions within the movement, and you know, Ben Shapiro, Tucker, Carlson, 1479 01:23:27,600 --> 01:23:32,880 Speaker 3: everybody going at it. This rise of I would say 1480 01:23:32,960 --> 01:23:36,439 Speaker 3: anti semitism within the party. It's sort of weird to me. 1481 01:23:36,560 --> 01:23:38,519 Speaker 3: We woke up one day and boomed there. It was 1482 01:23:39,520 --> 01:23:43,120 Speaker 3: what concerned you or do you have concerns that the 1483 01:23:43,120 --> 01:23:44,639 Speaker 3: party may be fracturing here? 1484 01:23:45,560 --> 01:23:45,720 Speaker 5: Well? 1485 01:23:45,720 --> 01:23:48,960 Speaker 19: I have concerns about what appears to be a philosophical 1486 01:23:48,960 --> 01:23:52,000 Speaker 19: divide of Israel. And even ambest that the vibe was strange. 1487 01:23:52,040 --> 01:23:54,519 Speaker 19: You pointed out that that's the first I've heard about 1488 01:23:56,960 --> 01:23:58,760 Speaker 19: setting up Charlie's tent. 1489 01:23:58,960 --> 01:23:59,960 Speaker 5: That's weird. 1490 01:24:01,120 --> 01:24:04,080 Speaker 19: But I saw the level of rhetoric there between Shapiro 1491 01:24:04,160 --> 01:24:06,760 Speaker 19: on one side of Tucker and Man on the other, 1492 01:24:07,360 --> 01:24:10,600 Speaker 19: and it's just unfortunate with the you know, we have 1493 01:24:10,720 --> 01:24:13,679 Speaker 19: so many things to work on and to get divided 1494 01:24:13,680 --> 01:24:18,320 Speaker 19: over that issue. There is a symbiotic relationship between Christians 1495 01:24:18,320 --> 01:24:20,840 Speaker 19: and Jews that goes back regardless of what you think 1496 01:24:21,280 --> 01:24:23,120 Speaker 19: the net and Yahoo government's doing at the moment, and 1497 01:24:23,160 --> 01:24:24,920 Speaker 19: it can't be denied. And you look at the Middle 1498 01:24:24,960 --> 01:24:29,000 Speaker 19: East and my concern is sharia law and radical sharia 1499 01:24:29,640 --> 01:24:31,679 Speaker 19: immigration in the United States, So I'm going to fight 1500 01:24:31,720 --> 01:24:33,559 Speaker 19: when I get into the US in it. My concern 1501 01:24:33,600 --> 01:24:37,000 Speaker 19: isn't so much whatever these folks are fixating on. So 1502 01:24:37,240 --> 01:24:40,200 Speaker 19: I'm concerned about it, and it's a bizarre issue over 1503 01:24:40,240 --> 01:24:42,160 Speaker 19: which to fracture, and I hope that we can put 1504 01:24:42,160 --> 01:24:43,280 Speaker 19: it behind us pretty quickly. 1505 01:24:43,439 --> 01:24:46,320 Speaker 3: Well I do you, But even Tucker was, you know, 1506 01:24:46,760 --> 01:24:52,799 Speaker 3: defending Islam on stage, and I'm it's it's really disturbing. 1507 01:24:52,920 --> 01:24:55,400 Speaker 3: I'm trying to get a good peg on where Tucker's 1508 01:24:55,479 --> 01:24:58,000 Speaker 3: coming from with all of this stuff, because clearly he 1509 01:24:58,080 --> 01:25:02,880 Speaker 3: has had massive changes and his ideological viewpoints here. And 1510 01:25:02,920 --> 01:25:05,400 Speaker 3: I'm with you. I think one of the greatest concerns 1511 01:25:05,640 --> 01:25:08,320 Speaker 3: is the rise of Islam here. It is going to 1512 01:25:08,360 --> 01:25:10,479 Speaker 3: and it's going to happen so quickly. If we do 1513 01:25:10,560 --> 01:25:13,560 Speaker 3: not address this, five years from now, we may be 1514 01:25:13,720 --> 01:25:15,320 Speaker 3: living in a very different country. 1515 01:25:16,760 --> 01:25:19,960 Speaker 19: Well, the problem has not just been illegal immigration too, 1516 01:25:20,080 --> 01:25:22,840 Speaker 19: where the Democrats opened the borders and let you know, 1517 01:25:23,000 --> 01:25:26,639 Speaker 19: hundreds of thousands of people in unvetted but the legal 1518 01:25:26,800 --> 01:25:31,280 Speaker 19: immigration scheme allowing for Sharia immigration. We gotta bring vet 1519 01:25:31,280 --> 01:25:34,679 Speaker 19: to a stop because it's deadly. I mean, Biden opened 1520 01:25:34,680 --> 01:25:37,479 Speaker 19: the doors for seventy thousand Afghans to come in, and 1521 01:25:37,560 --> 01:25:39,840 Speaker 19: one of these Afghans that he let in shot and 1522 01:25:39,960 --> 01:25:43,000 Speaker 19: killed that poor You know that the National guardsmen from 1523 01:25:43,080 --> 01:25:46,680 Speaker 19: Pennsylvania to the Young Growth twenty years old, and so 1524 01:25:47,160 --> 01:25:51,320 Speaker 19: you just can't vet there was a major General Harold 1525 01:25:51,360 --> 01:25:55,560 Speaker 19: Green in Afghanistan shot in the back by his Afghan bodyguard. 1526 01:25:55,600 --> 01:25:58,360 Speaker 19: The problem is it's dangerous. They don't have a right 1527 01:25:58,400 --> 01:26:01,479 Speaker 19: to immigrate here, and we need to crack down on it. 1528 01:26:01,520 --> 01:26:03,920 Speaker 19: And I think Tucker probably needs to refocus a little 1529 01:26:03,920 --> 01:26:05,519 Speaker 19: bit on where the real danger is. 1530 01:26:06,000 --> 01:26:08,120 Speaker 3: Don You've been out there meeting a lot of people. 1531 01:26:08,160 --> 01:26:09,720 Speaker 3: I know you're on the eastern part of the state 1532 01:26:09,760 --> 01:26:12,360 Speaker 3: a few days ago. What are you hearing from voters? 1533 01:26:12,360 --> 01:26:15,400 Speaker 3: What are some of their chief concerns as they're looking 1534 01:26:15,479 --> 01:26:16,360 Speaker 3: at the midterms? 1535 01:26:17,479 --> 01:26:20,160 Speaker 19: And in our campaign, we're pretty pushing free issues that 1536 01:26:20,560 --> 01:26:24,520 Speaker 19: the exploding national debt, we're pushing hard. It's still exploding 1537 01:26:24,840 --> 01:26:27,519 Speaker 19: Todd at something like thirty seven thousand dollars a second, 1538 01:26:28,000 --> 01:26:31,080 Speaker 19: and the President has executed brilliantly. But at the end 1539 01:26:31,120 --> 01:26:35,919 Speaker 19: of the day's Congress's responsibility to reverse this crazy spending 1540 01:26:36,240 --> 01:26:38,120 Speaker 19: spree because we're going to lose the dollar and they're 1541 01:26:38,120 --> 01:26:40,880 Speaker 19: going to push for a central bank digital currency. That 1542 01:26:41,200 --> 01:26:44,400 Speaker 19: message is resonating all over the state. And of course 1543 01:26:44,400 --> 01:26:47,679 Speaker 19: we're also defending medical freedom. We can't have another COVID 1544 01:26:47,720 --> 01:26:51,680 Speaker 19: scam where we're having an offer, you know, unvetted back 1545 01:26:51,720 --> 01:26:55,280 Speaker 19: to jadding into our arms.

Maybe that was it. 1595 01:29:02,360 --> 01:29:05,280 Speaker 3: Maybe I was probably what it was. The reason I 1596 01:29:05,320 --> 01:29:09,360 Speaker 3: ask is what happens if you have a thropple? What 1597 01:29:09,479 --> 01:29:14,040 Speaker 3: happens if you're in you have three people? And they 1598 01:29:14,080 --> 01:29:16,560 Speaker 3: actually make beds now for thropples? 1599 01:29:17,560 --> 01:29:18,320 Speaker 7: What are they called? 1600 01:29:18,880 --> 01:29:26,439 Speaker 3: I don't King and Queen. This headline from the Wall 1601 01:29:26,439 --> 01:29:31,520 Speaker 3: Street Journal. It's insane. So now they are normalizing thropples. 1602 01:29:31,760 --> 01:29:35,000 Speaker 3: So you're not married to one person, you're married to two, 1603 01:29:35,080 --> 01:29:38,360 Speaker 3: well three people. Two people, Yeah, you're married to two people. 1604 01:29:39,000 --> 01:29:42,160 Speaker 3: And so this is the headline in the real estate 1605 01:29:42,200 --> 01:29:45,280 Speaker 3: section of the Wall Street Journal. One thropple had three 1606 01:29:45,360 --> 01:29:49,479 Speaker 3: separate design taste How did they manage a renovation after 1607 01:29:49,560 --> 01:29:53,880 Speaker 3: buying a plane vanilla box? A Chicago Trio brought in 1608 01:29:54,080 --> 01:29:58,160 Speaker 3: an interior designer who blended their aesthetics and added elements 1609 01:29:58,200 --> 01:30:02,280 Speaker 3: like a moody den. First socializing and a three person bed. 1610 01:30:02,920 --> 01:30:06,120 Speaker 3: This bed looks like two king sized beds put together. 1611 01:30:06,800 --> 01:30:08,839 Speaker 7: They don't even make rooms that big. 1612 01:30:08,800 --> 01:30:11,160 Speaker 3: No, they don't. That's I'm like, how did that? How 1613 01:30:11,160 --> 01:30:14,240 Speaker 3: does all of this work? But anyway, people are really 1614 01:30:14,360 --> 01:30:17,800 Speaker 3: now they're starting to weigh in because they're normalizing this 1615 01:30:17,960 --> 01:30:24,000 Speaker 3: idea of three dudes getting married together, and they had 1616 01:30:24,040 --> 01:30:26,439 Speaker 3: to define it. I love this a second paragraph and 1617 01:30:26,439 --> 01:30:28,800 Speaker 3: the Wall Street Journal actually had to define what a 1618 01:30:28,840 --> 01:30:31,519 Speaker 3: throt pole is for a kind of like pan sexual. 1619 01:30:31,640 --> 01:30:34,800 Speaker 3: You just imagine really bad things happening to your corner where. 1620 01:30:35,160 --> 01:30:38,120 Speaker 3: But that's not what this is all about. So the 1621 01:30:38,200 --> 01:30:44,320 Speaker 3: throet pole is okay, they're doing okay. 1622 01:30:43,120 --> 01:30:44,479 Speaker 7: It's my favorite bed that you did. 1623 01:30:45,000 --> 01:30:49,680 Speaker 3: The throt pole is defined as a committed, romantic or 1624 01:30:50,000 --> 01:30:52,280 Speaker 3: sexual relationship between three. 1625 01:30:52,040 --> 01:30:58,439 Speaker 7: People committed or romantic or friendly or I don't know, cleepy. 1626 01:30:59,040 --> 01:31:06,400 Speaker 3: So anyway, they the thropple became deeded owners of the condo. 1627 01:31:06,520 --> 01:31:09,439 Speaker 3: I have questions about this though. I have questions. So 1628 01:31:10,000 --> 01:31:13,439 Speaker 3: what happens when, like, when you're doing your taxes and 1629 01:31:13,479 --> 01:31:17,080 Speaker 3: you're married to two other people?

Maybe the three pillow situation, 1636 01:31:36,400 --> 01:31:38,080 Speaker 7: They're gonna have to make bed sheets that are big 1637 01:31:38,160 --> 01:31:40,960 Speaker 7: enough for that thing.

Are you blaming the person in the 1639 01:31:42,760 --> 01:31:46,200 Speaker 7: middle or the person on the end is probably getting 1640 01:31:46,200 --> 01:31:47,639 Speaker 7: more than they deserve. 1641 01:31:47,800 --> 01:31:49,720 Speaker 3: Oh geez, we've got a word.

All there are gay couples that are complaining. 1675 01:34:04,280 --> 01:34:09,439 Speaker 3: You can't complain. You can't complain. You wanted to redefine marriage, 1676 01:34:09,880 --> 01:34:11,800 Speaker 3: and we warned you it was going to be a 1677 01:34:11,840 --> 01:34:15,439 Speaker 3: free for all, right, we warned you about that, and 1678 01:34:15,560 --> 01:34:19,240 Speaker 3: now you got people getting married to their dishpans, and 1679 01:34:19,280 --> 01:34:22,280 Speaker 3: you got people getting married to eight people.

Just a few moments ago, turning Point USA 1682 01:34:33,920 --> 01:34:36,840 Speaker 3: doing an interview and they say they have in fact 1683 01:34:37,040 --> 01:34:41,439 Speaker 3: endorsed JD. Vance, not just Erica Kirk, but TPUSA. They've 1684 01:34:41,560 --> 01:34:44,760 Speaker 3: endorsed Vance to be the GOP nominee in twenty twenty eight. 1685 01:34:45,560 --> 01:34:48,839 Speaker 3: My question is, well, TPUSA chapters on these high schools 1686 01:34:48,840 --> 01:34:52,960 Speaker 3: and university campus has now become de facto campaign offices 1687 01:34:53,200 --> 01:34:56,519 Speaker 3: for Vance, And the way I see it, TPUSA can 1688 01:34:56,560 --> 01:34:58,679 Speaker 3: do whatever they want to do. I just don't believe 1689 01:34:58,760 --> 01:35:03,360 Speaker 3: an anointing candidate or having coronations. We've got plenty of 1690 01:35:03,360 --> 01:35:05,720 Speaker 3: time between now in twenty twenty eight and I think 1691 01:35:05,760 --> 01:35:09,080 Speaker 3: we need to have a ferocious debate. Let's see who 1692 01:35:09,160 --> 01:35:12,479 Speaker 3: we've got in our midst Keep in mind, jd Vance 1693 01:35:12,560 --> 01:35:16,640 Speaker 3: once said that he did not vote for Trump and 1694 01:35:16,720 --> 01:35:18,920 Speaker 3: set wrote an op ed for the Time saying that 1695 01:35:18,920 --> 01:35:22,599 Speaker 3: Trump was unfit for our nation's highest office. So yeah, 1696 01:35:22,640 --> 01:35:25,000 Speaker 3: I'd kind of like to see what else is going 1697 01:35:25,040 --> 01:35:38,320 Speaker 3: on out there. We'll be all right back everybody, and 1698 01:35:38,479 --> 01:35:40,040 Speaker 3: Merry Christmas to you everyone. 1699 01:35:40,240 --> 01:35:40,479 Speaker 2: Man. 1700 01:35:40,600 --> 01:35:45,640 Speaker 3: Our live chat over on YouTube is going at it. 1701 01:35:45,800 --> 01:35:48,599 Speaker 3: That's all I can tell you. We've got a lot happening, 1702 01:35:48,880 --> 01:35:50,759 Speaker 3: a lot of folks weighing in on the big issues 1703 01:35:50,760 --> 01:35:54,840 Speaker 3: of the day. And people were saying, is did I 1704 01:35:54,920 --> 01:35:58,960 Speaker 3: hear you correctly? Yes, there was a replica of the 1705 01:35:59,120 --> 01:36:02,960 Speaker 3: tents where Charlie was assassinated. It was set up at 1706 01:36:03,280 --> 01:36:07,960 Speaker 3: the Amfest and the uh Well individuals were invited to 1707 01:36:07,960 --> 01:36:11,160 Speaker 3: come over and take a selfie and a lot of 1708 01:36:11,240 --> 01:36:15,440 Speaker 3: people did just that.

So again turning point. Just moments ago, Andrew 1724 01:37:02,040 --> 01:37:06,720 Speaker 3: Colvet was on one of the channels and saying that 1725 01:37:06,760 --> 01:37:08,920 Speaker 3: they are going to be turning point is going to 1726 01:37:08,960 --> 01:37:12,920 Speaker 3: be all in for JD vance in the twenty twenty 1727 01:37:12,920 --> 01:37:18,639 Speaker 3: eight presidential election. Here is JD yesterday, and I really 1728 01:37:18,640 --> 01:37:22,519 Speaker 3: appreciated what he had to say here on this particular topic. 1729 01:37:22,640 --> 01:37:26,000 Speaker 3: Affirming that America is in fact a Christian nation got 1730 01:37:26,080 --> 01:37:27,559 Speaker 3: number three. 1731 01:37:27,720 --> 01:37:30,920 Speaker 6: But I want to say something here. The only thing 1732 01:37:31,360 --> 01:37:34,599 Speaker 6: that is truly served as an anchor of the United 1733 01:37:34,600 --> 01:37:37,960 Speaker 6: States of America is that we have been, and by 1734 01:37:38,000 --> 01:37:52,400 Speaker 6: the grace of God, we always will be a Christian nation. Now, 1735 01:37:52,439 --> 01:37:55,080 Speaker 6: I want to be explicit, because of course the fake 1736 01:37:55,160 --> 01:37:58,519 Speaker 6: news media will twist everything that I say. I'm not 1737 01:37:58,720 --> 01:38:03,559 Speaker 6: saying do you feel about them the same way I do. 1738 01:38:05,000 --> 01:38:07,040 Speaker 6: I'm not saying you have to be a Christian to 1739 01:38:07,120 --> 01:38:12,840 Speaker 6: be an American. I'm saying something simpler and truer. Christianity 1740 01:38:13,160 --> 01:38:17,320 Speaker 6: is America's Creed, the shared moral language from the Revolution 1741 01:38:17,520 --> 01:38:21,800 Speaker 6: to the Civil War and beyond. Across that history, our 1742 01:38:21,880 --> 01:38:25,800 Speaker 6: country's major debates have always centered on how we could 1743 01:38:25,920 --> 01:38:27,120 Speaker 6: best as a people. 1744 01:38:27,520 --> 01:38:30,400 Speaker 4: Please God, That Creed. 1745 01:38:32,640 --> 01:38:33,320 Speaker 7: Think about it. 1746 01:38:33,960 --> 01:38:37,960 Speaker 6: That Creed motivated our understanding of natural law and rights, 1747 01:38:38,479 --> 01:38:42,120 Speaker 6: our sense of duty to one's neighbor, the conviction that 1748 01:38:42,200 --> 01:38:45,720 Speaker 6: the strong must protect the weak, and the belief in 1749 01:38:45,720 --> 01:38:51,759 Speaker 6: individual conscience. Even our famously American idea of religious liberty 1750 01:38:52,320 --> 01:38:53,680 Speaker 6: is a Christian concept. 1751 01:38:55,080 --> 01:38:57,679 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's I mean, he knocked it out of the ballpark. 1752 01:38:57,760 --> 01:39:01,160 Speaker 3: It was a great answer, and we do believe that 1753 01:39:01,240 --> 01:39:05,800 Speaker 3: America is as a Christian nation. So Friday Night had 1754 01:39:05,840 --> 01:39:08,280 Speaker 3: the opportunity to sit down with a couple of students 1755 01:39:08,360 --> 01:39:13,240 Speaker 3: on our NEWSMAC show and they you know, I want 1756 01:39:13,240 --> 01:39:14,759 Speaker 3: to play this and then we're going to get to Steve, 1757 01:39:14,800 --> 01:39:16,880 Speaker 3: but I want to play this audio. This is from 1758 01:39:17,040 --> 01:39:19,200 Speaker 3: a couple of students one a college student, the other 1759 01:39:19,240 --> 01:39:22,760 Speaker 3: a high school student. They were at Amfest and here's 1760 01:39:22,800 --> 01:39:26,599 Speaker 3: their takeaway. Katie Casey is the vice president of Club 1761 01:39:26,680 --> 01:39:31,080 Speaker 3: America at Collierville High School in Tennessee, and Jackson Heberlin, 1762 01:39:31,160 --> 01:39:35,880 Speaker 3: the Social Outreach chair of the Clemson University College Republicans. Guys, 1763 01:39:35,920 --> 01:39:39,360 Speaker 3: good to see you, Jackson to you first. Want to 1764 01:39:39,400 --> 01:39:41,759 Speaker 3: get your reaction. You've heard from a lot of the speeches. 1765 01:39:41,800 --> 01:39:43,560 Speaker 3: What's the vibe there at Amfest? 1766 01:39:45,920 --> 01:39:48,519 Speaker 21: I mean, it's a lectured people are so excited to 1767 01:39:48,520 --> 01:39:51,000 Speaker 21: come out here and meet their fellow conservatives, and I 1768 01:39:51,080 --> 01:39:52,960 Speaker 21: really feel sense of unity. I know there's been some 1769 01:39:53,080 --> 01:39:56,200 Speaker 21: level of disagreeance, but the collective effort and the collective 1770 01:39:56,479 --> 01:39:59,040 Speaker 21: monitor of this event really is coming together. And I 1771 01:39:59,040 --> 01:40:01,080 Speaker 21: think that that's been exemple fight in this event so far. 1772 01:40:03,600 --> 01:40:07,600 Speaker 3: Katie, you heard Erica Kurt give you you high schoolers 1773 01:40:07,640 --> 01:40:09,839 Speaker 3: a shout out, and I know that you just started. 1774 01:40:10,160 --> 01:40:12,080 Speaker 3: You were part of a group that started a club 1775 01:40:12,160 --> 01:40:15,000 Speaker 3: there at your high school. What's that experience like being 1776 01:40:15,040 --> 01:40:17,360 Speaker 3: around so many young conservatives this weekend? 1777 01:40:19,600 --> 01:40:22,960 Speaker 22: Yes, sir, it has been absolutely amazing. I honestly can't 1778 01:40:22,960 --> 01:40:25,880 Speaker 22: even put it into words, just because I've never experienced 1779 01:40:25,920 --> 01:40:28,559 Speaker 22: anything like this, and I feel like it's almost a 1780 01:40:28,640 --> 01:40:32,160 Speaker 22: sense of recharging and almost empowerment. I know that's kind 1781 01:40:32,200 --> 01:40:35,559 Speaker 22: of a liberal term, but empowerment just because you can 1782 01:40:35,600 --> 01:40:39,320 Speaker 22: really recharge and gather information and knowledge you obtain here 1783 01:40:39,680 --> 01:40:42,000 Speaker 22: and you can I think I can apply it to 1784 01:40:42,120 --> 01:40:44,599 Speaker 22: the chapter I'm in, and not even just a chapter, 1785 01:40:44,680 --> 01:40:49,240 Speaker 22: but way beyond. So it's just absolutely electrifying and empowering. 1786 01:40:49,360 --> 01:40:51,000 Speaker 22: It's just it's amazing. 1787 01:40:51,160 --> 01:40:54,599 Speaker 6: It's amazing, Jackson. 1788 01:40:54,840 --> 01:40:56,920 Speaker 3: You've you've been in the fight. You guys have been 1789 01:40:56,920 --> 01:41:00,800 Speaker 3: doing debates on campus, going to an event like and 1790 01:41:01,160 --> 01:41:04,520 Speaker 3: Fest is, do you sort of get your batteries recharged? 1791 01:41:04,600 --> 01:41:07,200 Speaker 3: Do you get your marching orders before you go back 1792 01:41:07,200 --> 01:41:07,880 Speaker 3: to campus? 1793 01:41:09,960 --> 01:41:12,240 Speaker 21: You absolutely do, you know, doing the campus the base 1794 01:41:12,280 --> 01:41:14,080 Speaker 21: that I do, I feel like I spend almost all 1795 01:41:14,120 --> 01:41:16,160 Speaker 21: of my days talking to people who either hate my 1796 01:41:16,200 --> 01:41:18,960 Speaker 21: guts or mildly dislike me. But being out here at 1797 01:41:19,000 --> 01:41:21,479 Speaker 21: Amfest is quite the opposite. It feels like everyone agrees 1798 01:41:21,479 --> 01:41:24,040 Speaker 21: with me, everyone likes me, And in a way, I'd say, 1799 01:41:24,080 --> 01:41:25,599 Speaker 21: you definitely don't want to live in that environment all 1800 01:41:25,600 --> 01:41:27,240 Speaker 21: the time, because I could see it definitely kind of 1801 01:41:28,080 --> 01:41:30,200 Speaker 21: melting your mind. But it is amazing to be around 1802 01:41:30,240 --> 01:41:33,000 Speaker 21: people who really care, really agree and are passionate in 1803 01:41:33,040 --> 01:41:36,040 Speaker 21: the same way that I am. And yeah, it's definitely 1804 01:41:36,040 --> 01:41:37,280 Speaker 21: a recharging moment for me at. 1805 01:41:37,280 --> 01:41:43,519 Speaker 3: Least, Katie, I'm curious about teenagers, high scorers. What's been 1806 01:41:43,560 --> 01:41:48,120 Speaker 3: the reaction since Charlie's assassination. What's been the reaction to 1807 01:41:48,600 --> 01:41:53,640 Speaker 3: high school students with the conservative message? 1808 01:41:54,640 --> 01:41:56,840 Speaker 22: You know, there has been such an uprise in the 1809 01:41:56,840 --> 01:42:00,479 Speaker 22: conservative movement for high schoolers and you know, the junior 1810 01:42:00,560 --> 01:42:03,280 Speaker 22: high but there has also been kind of a you 1811 01:42:03,320 --> 01:42:05,519 Speaker 22: can kind of see who's on your side and who's not. 1812 01:42:05,720 --> 01:42:07,800 Speaker 22: You know, with social media, there's so much of an 1813 01:42:08,120 --> 01:42:12,320 Speaker 22: opportunity to people for people to post opposing messages and 1814 01:42:12,400 --> 01:42:14,680 Speaker 22: you know, we're glad that Charlie Kirk is dead, and 1815 01:42:14,720 --> 01:42:16,640 Speaker 22: you know, we're glad that Charlie da da da, but 1816 01:42:16,760 --> 01:42:19,439 Speaker 22: it's also a wonderful time for people to really come 1817 01:42:19,479 --> 01:42:23,640 Speaker 22: together because before Charlie died, our chapter was inactive. So 1818 01:42:24,120 --> 01:42:26,280 Speaker 22: in a way, it's been such a blessing for our 1819 01:42:26,360 --> 01:42:28,960 Speaker 22: high school. And you know, this all wouldn't have happened 1820 01:42:28,960 --> 01:42:31,520 Speaker 22: without him, so it's been amazing. 1821 01:42:33,720 --> 01:42:36,520 Speaker 3: And Jackson, again, there has been a bit of controversy, 1822 01:42:36,600 --> 01:42:40,160 Speaker 3: a little back and forth between between Tucker Carlson and 1823 01:42:40,200 --> 01:42:44,400 Speaker 3: Ben Shapiro yesterday. What's been the vibe there and the reaction? 1824 01:42:44,520 --> 01:42:46,600 Speaker 3: What's the scuttle but there in the hallways. 1825 01:42:48,960 --> 01:42:51,000 Speaker 21: I mean, it really is a sort of dividing line. 1826 01:42:51,040 --> 01:42:53,599 Speaker 21: Are you on team Ben or Team Tucker? And you know, 1827 01:42:53,720 --> 01:42:55,960 Speaker 21: I find that most people who are on Team Tucker 1828 01:42:56,040 --> 01:42:58,400 Speaker 21: believe in you know, it's more important about hosting. You 1829 01:42:58,439 --> 01:43:00,000 Speaker 21: want to host, and most people who are on team 1830 01:43:00,240 --> 01:43:02,400 Speaker 21: or believing this is more important on who you hosted, 1831 01:43:02,439 --> 01:43:04,559 Speaker 21: how you host them. So it's a big debate over 1832 01:43:04,600 --> 01:43:06,080 Speaker 21: here about how to use free speech and how to 1833 01:43:06,160 --> 01:43:09,040 Speaker 21: use your platform. But just from my personal take, in 1834 01:43:09,160 --> 01:43:11,160 Speaker 21: my personal view round, I find that most people are 1835 01:43:11,160 --> 01:43:11,840 Speaker 21: signing with Tucker. 1836 01:43:12,240 --> 01:43:14,960 Speaker 3: All right, there we go. That was the interview with 1837 01:43:15,200 --> 01:43:18,040 Speaker 3: a couple of kids at TPUSA. We have re established 1838 01:43:18,120 --> 01:43:22,040 Speaker 3: contact with Steve Gill. Steve, we appreciate having you with 1839 01:43:22,120 --> 01:43:25,400 Speaker 3: us today. Try Star Daily dot com is Steve's website. 1840 01:43:25,880 --> 01:43:30,200 Speaker 3: What's the big takeaway here and how important is whatever 1841 01:43:30,280 --> 01:43:32,640 Speaker 3: happened in Phoenix over the weekend. How important is that 1842 01:43:32,960 --> 01:43:35,000 Speaker 3: to the national conservative movement? 1843 01:43:36,240 --> 01:43:38,400 Speaker 20: I think it's huge because one of the things that 1844 01:43:38,479 --> 01:43:42,720 Speaker 20: conservatives saw in this last election cycle with Trump is 1845 01:43:42,880 --> 01:43:46,919 Speaker 20: energizing more of those kind of younger voters that traditionally 1846 01:43:46,920 --> 01:43:52,519 Speaker 20: have fallen into the Democrat aisle. Charlie Kirk was having 1847 01:43:52,560 --> 01:43:55,680 Speaker 20: an impact, He's had even bigger impact, I think, unfortunately 1848 01:43:55,720 --> 01:43:59,360 Speaker 20: and sadly with his passing, but his legacy living on 1849 01:44:00,120 --> 01:44:03,080 Speaker 20: something I think Republicans in this big term election season 1850 01:44:03,520 --> 01:44:06,400 Speaker 20: or poise to really take advantage of, and certainly the 1851 01:44:06,400 --> 01:44:09,200 Speaker 20: fact that they've early on between Erica Kirk in between, 1852 01:44:09,280 --> 01:44:14,320 Speaker 20: TPUSA endorsed JD. Van He's the big winner. It's kind 1853 01:44:14,360 --> 01:44:18,240 Speaker 20: of as you look ahead already to the next presidential 1854 01:44:18,280 --> 01:44:21,439 Speaker 20: election cycle. He's the big winner out of Arizona. 1855 01:44:21,520 --> 01:44:23,840 Speaker 3: This week, well, they did a straw poll and you know, 1856 01:44:24,000 --> 01:44:27,200 Speaker 3: Vance got what eighty plus percent of the vote. I'm 1857 01:44:27,280 --> 01:44:33,280 Speaker 3: curious if TPUSA had invited Marco Rubio, who has honestly, 1858 01:44:33,439 --> 01:44:35,320 Speaker 3: you know, when we had someone call in earlier and 1859 01:44:35,479 --> 01:44:38,479 Speaker 3: made a really good point about this. Rubio is really 1860 01:44:38,520 --> 01:44:42,759 Speaker 3: the workhorse of this administration, taking on multiple jobs, multiple roles, 1861 01:44:43,080 --> 01:44:46,240 Speaker 3: and really succeeding in them all. And I think JD 1862 01:44:46,439 --> 01:44:48,599 Speaker 3: has done a great job as a vice president getting 1863 01:44:48,600 --> 01:44:51,559 Speaker 3: out there and giving speeches and having the presidents back. 1864 01:44:51,640 --> 01:44:55,120 Speaker 3: But it really has been Rubio that is delivering on 1865 01:44:55,680 --> 01:44:57,200 Speaker 3: the America First agenda. 1866 01:44:58,360 --> 01:45:00,599 Speaker 20: Yeah, I think one of the things we talked about 1867 01:45:00,640 --> 01:45:04,519 Speaker 20: this before the Trump team, because you've got Rubio, You've 1868 01:45:04,520 --> 01:45:07,280 Speaker 20: got JD. Vance, You've got a whole host of the 1869 01:45:07,680 --> 01:45:11,120 Speaker 20: of the cabinet officials. They are all put in the 1870 01:45:11,120 --> 01:45:14,200 Speaker 20: same direction. The first Trump term, they were all kind 1871 01:45:14,200 --> 01:45:15,600 Speaker 20: of heading off in their own thing. You had some 1872 01:45:15,680 --> 01:45:20,799 Speaker 20: who were actively working against the MAGA Trump agenda. This time, 1873 01:45:21,320 --> 01:45:24,280 Speaker 20: the reason things are happening so well with the administration 1874 01:45:24,800 --> 01:45:26,360 Speaker 20: is that they are all on the same page as 1875 01:45:26,360 --> 01:45:29,800 Speaker 20: the playbook and working in the same direction. Now we 1876 01:45:29,920 --> 01:45:32,519 Speaker 20: got to get the Senate involved to do that. The House, 1877 01:45:32,560 --> 01:45:34,439 Speaker 20: with the very narrow majority, has passed a lot of 1878 01:45:34,520 --> 01:45:38,479 Speaker 20: the legislative agenda of Trump and and MAGA. The senators 1879 01:45:38,520 --> 01:45:41,479 Speaker 20: hitting back not doing their job, they're part of the job. 1880 01:45:41,560 --> 01:45:44,720 Speaker 20: So I think that as we look towards who will 1881 01:45:44,720 --> 01:45:47,800 Speaker 20: carry the flame forward, whether it's Date E. Vance, whether 1882 01:45:47,880 --> 01:45:50,760 Speaker 20: it's again, you know, there's a whole We've got to 1883 01:45:50,840 --> 01:45:52,680 Speaker 20: all have a whole host of good tendates. But I 1884 01:45:52,680 --> 01:45:56,599 Speaker 20: think that Rubio and the rest they're doing their job. 1885 01:45:57,040 --> 01:45:59,759 Speaker 20: The Senate is not, and I think that the President 1886 01:45:59,800 --> 01:46:02,720 Speaker 20: and the administration needs to be putting more pressure on 1887 01:46:02,840 --> 01:46:05,679 Speaker 20: sooon for the Senate to do their job to pass 1888 01:46:05,760 --> 01:46:08,760 Speaker 20: the Trump agenda. Otherwise, if we don't farewell in the 1889 01:46:08,760 --> 01:46:11,840 Speaker 20: midterm elections, it's going to be a two year and 1890 01:46:11,960 --> 01:46:15,680 Speaker 20: done Trump administration because the Democrats won't do anything to 1891 01:46:15,920 --> 01:46:18,840 Speaker 20: cooperate in the remaining two years of his term, regardless 1892 01:46:18,840 --> 01:46:20,679 Speaker 20: of who's lined up to be the next president. 1893 01:46:21,040 --> 01:46:21,280 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1894 01:46:21,280 --> 01:46:25,800 Speaker 3: Trump's pollster, by the way, they put out some numbers 1895 01:46:26,360 --> 01:46:29,679 Speaker 3: just a few moments ago saying the things you're looking 1896 01:46:29,720 --> 01:46:34,280 Speaker 3: pretty ugly for Republicans heading into twenty twenty six They're saying, 1897 01:46:34,320 --> 01:46:39,439 Speaker 3: this is Fabrizio. Tony Fabrizio, who's handled Trump's upholling since 1898 01:46:39,479 --> 01:46:44,080 Speaker 3: what twenty sixteen, says Republicans right now trending towards getting 1899 01:46:44,120 --> 01:46:45,280 Speaker 3: smacked in the midterms. 1900 01:46:46,240 --> 01:46:50,400 Speaker 20: Your take on that, well, I think it's understandable because again, 1901 01:46:50,560 --> 01:46:53,880 Speaker 20: the Senate and the House are not doing what needs 1902 01:46:53,880 --> 01:46:56,559 Speaker 20: to be done. We hear all these glowing reports from 1903 01:46:56,600 --> 01:46:58,960 Speaker 20: those and everything else. Now they're going to cut hundreds 1904 01:46:59,000 --> 01:47:03,000 Speaker 20: of billions trillion of dollars in wasteful spending. Nobody's getting 1905 01:47:03,000 --> 01:47:07,960 Speaker 20: prosecuted for having stolen money, nobody's getting prosecuted for the 1906 01:47:08,040 --> 01:47:12,960 Speaker 20: judicial warfare that has been weighed. So they're not holding 1907 01:47:13,000 --> 01:47:16,480 Speaker 20: people accountable, and the House and Senate aren't passing legislation. 1908 01:47:16,880 --> 01:47:18,920 Speaker 20: Now I'm going to disagree with Fabrizio, and it is 1909 01:47:18,960 --> 01:47:22,120 Speaker 20: polling because I think right now, if you ask people questions, 1910 01:47:22,120 --> 01:47:26,040 Speaker 20: they're being still driven by the mainstream legacy media of oh, 1911 01:47:26,120 --> 01:47:30,320 Speaker 20: how bad the economy is and how Trump hasn't done anything. 1912 01:47:31,000 --> 01:47:33,080 Speaker 20: And yet when you look at where we were versus 1913 01:47:33,080 --> 01:47:36,840 Speaker 20: where we are, if there was more honest reporting, there 1914 01:47:36,840 --> 01:47:38,920 Speaker 20: couldn't be any way that you wouldn't support. Certainly with 1915 01:47:39,000 --> 01:47:42,720 Speaker 20: President Trump and the Republicans have accomplished even with the 1916 01:47:42,720 --> 01:47:46,680 Speaker 20: Democrats throwing up blockades everywhere they can. Again, now a 1917 01:47:46,840 --> 01:47:52,080 Speaker 20: single Democrat votes except lockstep to block the Trump agenda 1918 01:47:52,120 --> 01:47:54,600 Speaker 20: in the House of Senate, so you've got Johnson and 1919 01:47:54,720 --> 01:47:58,280 Speaker 20: Zune having to navigate very narrow majority. I think the 1920 01:47:58,320 --> 01:48:01,320 Speaker 20: economy is going to improve pretty dramatically as we head 1921 01:48:01,320 --> 01:48:04,280 Speaker 20: into twenty twenty six. The big beautiful bill will start 1922 01:48:04,320 --> 01:48:07,040 Speaker 20: to kick in. The tax cuts will be felt. You're 1923 01:48:07,080 --> 01:48:10,599 Speaker 20: going to see the continued benefits of the tariffs. Contrary 1924 01:48:10,640 --> 01:48:13,679 Speaker 20: to what the media points out with opening foreign markets, 1925 01:48:13,720 --> 01:48:16,200 Speaker 20: all the focus on the tariffs is, oh, it's driving 1926 01:48:16,240 --> 01:48:19,679 Speaker 20: up our prices. It's also going to open up markets 1927 01:48:19,720 --> 01:48:23,799 Speaker 20: where we have been blocked in Europe, in Asia, South America, 1928 01:48:23,920 --> 01:48:26,800 Speaker 20: throughout the world. That's going to be mean that more 1929 01:48:26,840 --> 01:48:28,840 Speaker 20: of our farmers is going to sell more stuff. Our 1930 01:48:28,880 --> 01:48:31,840 Speaker 20: manufacturers are going to sell more stuff. That's going to 1931 01:48:31,840 --> 01:48:35,679 Speaker 20: spur the economy. Gas prices coming down are already having 1932 01:48:35,720 --> 01:48:37,719 Speaker 20: an impact, but they're going to have a bigger impact 1933 01:48:37,920 --> 01:48:41,479 Speaker 20: when the cost of everything is cheaper, when energy is cheaper. 1934 01:48:41,520 --> 01:48:44,200 Speaker 20: So and then finally, when the you know, Jerome pal 1935 01:48:44,360 --> 01:48:47,080 Speaker 20: gets moved out, moved on, and interest rates come down, 1936 01:48:47,240 --> 01:48:48,880 Speaker 20: You're going to see a boom in the housing market. 1937 01:48:48,960 --> 01:48:51,439 Speaker 20: You're going to see better opportunities in the rental markets, 1938 01:48:51,640 --> 01:48:54,320 Speaker 20: car purchases. And finally, you know, when you get more 1939 01:48:54,360 --> 01:48:56,560 Speaker 20: of the illegals pushed out of the country and the 1940 01:48:57,160 --> 01:49:00,200 Speaker 20: Trump administration is now willing to pay three grand for 1941 01:49:00,240 --> 01:49:04,000 Speaker 20: them to self support, you have less pressure in the 1942 01:49:04,000 --> 01:49:07,639 Speaker 20: housing markets, you have less pressure on taxpayers. You have 1943 01:49:07,760 --> 01:49:11,320 Speaker 20: better opportunities in the job markets. When the illegals are gone. 1944 01:49:11,360 --> 01:49:13,720 Speaker 20: So I think everything lines up for next year to 1945 01:49:13,800 --> 01:49:16,080 Speaker 20: be a boom year in the economy, which will help 1946 01:49:16,120 --> 01:49:17,440 Speaker 20: Republicans in the midterms. 1947 01:49:17,880 --> 01:49:21,680 Speaker 3: Steve, You know, I think going back to TPUSA and 1948 01:49:21,840 --> 01:49:25,479 Speaker 3: all of the fighting among the conservative influencers, they need 1949 01:49:25,520 --> 01:49:28,479 Speaker 3: to understand something here. We need to be focused on 1950 01:49:28,520 --> 01:49:31,559 Speaker 3: the real enemy here, which is the Democrat Party and 1951 01:49:31,640 --> 01:49:35,240 Speaker 3: these radical progressives. That's what we need to be focused on. 1952 01:49:35,400 --> 01:49:37,920 Speaker 3: And we've got to unite together. We've got to get 1953 01:49:38,320 --> 01:49:40,479 Speaker 3: everybody on the same page, and we've got to make 1954 01:49:40,520 --> 01:49:43,080 Speaker 3: sure we have a very clear message we're sending to 1955 01:49:43,160 --> 01:49:44,400 Speaker 3: voters in the midterms. 1956 01:49:45,080 --> 01:49:49,600 Speaker 20: You are absolutely right, because when voters hear what the nutcases, 1957 01:49:49,760 --> 01:49:53,960 Speaker 20: woke whack jobs on the left are actually for, whether 1958 01:49:54,000 --> 01:49:57,320 Speaker 20: it's elan Omar, whether it's AOC, whether it's the you know, 1959 01:49:57,439 --> 01:50:00,479 Speaker 20: Gavin Newsom's or the rest, if you act, we take 1960 01:50:00,479 --> 01:50:03,320 Speaker 20: a moment to listen to what they advocate. You know, 1961 01:50:03,360 --> 01:50:06,799 Speaker 20: it's an eighty twenty split of where America is versus 1962 01:50:06,800 --> 01:50:09,960 Speaker 20: the policies they're promoting. We need to do a better 1963 01:50:10,040 --> 01:50:12,400 Speaker 20: job of making sure that we talk about what we're 1964 01:50:12,520 --> 01:50:15,880 Speaker 20: for and quitness kind of cat fighting between you know, 1965 01:50:16,040 --> 01:50:19,800 Speaker 20: influencers and focus on what they would do if they 1966 01:50:19,840 --> 01:50:22,519 Speaker 20: were in charge and what they've done when they've been 1967 01:50:22,560 --> 01:50:25,519 Speaker 20: in charge in the past. So again, I agree with 1968 01:50:25,560 --> 01:50:27,080 Speaker 20: you one hundred percent. And I think so many of 1969 01:50:27,120 --> 01:50:30,880 Speaker 20: these influencers are out there trying to create controversy and 1970 01:50:30,920 --> 01:50:36,360 Speaker 20: create conflict within the conservative movement, within these groups because 1971 01:50:36,360 --> 01:50:40,000 Speaker 20: they're looking for clicks. They're looking to expand their visibility 1972 01:50:40,360 --> 01:50:45,200 Speaker 20: rather than advanced issues and policy, and I'm sick of it. 1973 01:50:45,240 --> 01:50:46,960 Speaker 20: I think a lot of Republicans are sick of it. 1974 01:50:47,320 --> 01:50:50,760 Speaker 20: And many of these so called influencers are going to 1975 01:50:50,800 --> 01:50:55,000 Speaker 20: find their influence planing as conservatives make up what game 1976 01:50:55,080 --> 01:50:58,800 Speaker 20: they're playing, which is it's all about them rather than 1977 01:50:58,840 --> 01:50:59,599 Speaker 20: about us. 1978 01:51:00,080 --> 01:51:03,120 Speaker 3: That's it, Steve, gotta leave it there, my friend.
